Lëndimi

lëndimi is the Albanian word for injury. It refers to damage to the body caused by external force, whether it be blunt trauma, sharp force, or other physical insults. Injuries can range in severity from minor bruises and cuts to life-threatening conditions such as fractures, internal bleeding, and severe burns.

The causes of lëndimi are diverse and include accidents, falls, sports-related incidents, violence, and occupational hazards. The type and extent of the injury depend on the nature of the force applied, the location on the body, and the individual's physical condition.

Treatment for lëndimi varies greatly depending on the specific injury. Minor injuries may be managed with self-care measures like rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE). More severe injuries often require professional medical attention, including diagnostic imaging, medication, physical therapy, and in some cases, surgery. Prevention of lëndimi involves safety precautions in daily life, proper protective equipment during activities, and promoting safe environments. Understanding lëndimi is crucial for recognizing potential harm and seeking appropriate care.
