This video demonstrates how skin tension caused by burn scars can affect joint movements, with a specific focus on shoulder joint.
The continuous nature of the skin means that when a joint is in motion, it's not just the local skin that stretches—it's a collaborative effort involving adjacent areas. A basic concern in burn rehabilitation is the profound effect of burn scars on joint mobility. Contrary to normal skin, scars lack the ability to stretch adequately. A scar need not be directly on a joint to impede its movement. A patient may experience noticeable issues with joint mobility despite the absence of apparent scars in the surrounding skin. In the case presented here, the patient doesn't have any scars on his shoulder, yet his shoulder movement is impeded. The culprit? Uneven tension stemming from scars located elsewhere.
