What is the distinguishing feature of an overuse injury?

  1. Immediate bruising

  2. Pain persisting beyond 72 hours

  3. Complete loss of function

  4. High levels of inflammation

The correct answer is: Pain persisting beyond 72 hours

An overuse injury is a type of injury that occurs due to repetitive strain on a specific body part or muscle, often from physical activities or exercise. Out of the given options, the only one that accurately describes a distinguishing feature of an overuse injury is option B pain persisting beyond 72 hours. This is because an overuse injury does not typically result in immediate bruising or complete loss of function, and while inflammation may be present, it is not necessarily a defining characteristic. Therefore, option B is the best answer as it aligns with the duration of pain that individuals with overuse injuries usually experience.
