What are the forces that can cause injury in soft tissue structure of the body?

Injuries to soft tissue structures can be caused by various forces, including tensile forces that stretch the tissue beyond its capacity, compressive forces that crush or squeeze tissue, and shear forces that cause layers of tissue to slide against each other. Additionally, repetitive stress or overuse can lead to microtrauma, resulting in inflammation and injury. Impact forces from falls or collisions can also cause acute injuries to soft tissues.
