The contracture is developed due to the elastic tissue replacement by non-elastic or non-stretchy fibre-like tissues and makes it hard to stretch the area and prevents normal movement.
Contracture particularly occurs in the skin, the tissues underneath, and the muscles, tendons, ligaments surrounding a joint. The contracture affects the movement of the body parts as well as function in a certain body part that also causes the pain in the affected areas.
The burn scar contracture is referring to the tightening of skin after a second or third-degree burn.
When a skin is burned, the surrounding skin begins to pull together, resulting in a contracture. It must be treated promptly as the burn resultant contracture blocked the movement around the injured area.
The burn scar contracture doesn’t go away on their own but can improve with a passage of time if the physiotherapy and splinting is followed by the patient.
If the scar and tightness of the affected skin persisted for a long then the surgical procedure is performed to correct the contracture deformities. The technique may include the local skin Flaps (Z-plasty) or skin grafting (full thickness or split thickness).
