Аbstract. In the process of special training of military servicemen, various elements of the musculoskeletal system of a person are constantly exposed to mechanical loads of various frequencies, intensities and strengths. With such prolonged and shock loads characteristic of military personnel and athletes, permanent minor damage to the bones occurs, which over time can lead to impaired formation of bones and joints, up to the development of the disease. Violation of the motor reactions of the limb ultimately leads to the suppression of the mechanisms of social adaptation, physiological functions and aggravates the course of most diseases, decompensating processes that affect not only the quality of life, but also its duration. A very important point is that labor losses in military personnel during stress fractures can reach 6 months, which negatively affects the service, with a total duration of 12 months of military service. In this regard, questions arise about the advisability of such military servicemen in the army and further spending of budget funds for their maintenance. The stress fractures of long bones are analyzed on the example of fractures of the tibia. It has been established that the greatest number of injuries associated with stress fractures occur during combat training conducted in a special military uniform. A feature of the course of stress fractures is increasing pain in the limb. Among injured with tension fractures, 83,5% of the military did not do the sports before drafting, and physical activity that arose during the service was difficult or not tolerated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
