Question

it is important to immobilize an injured limb in order to _. a. prevent it from being injured further b. prevent infections c. slow the healing process d. allow your body to overcome the shock of the injury please select the best answer from the choices provided.

Explanation:

Immobilizing an injured limb restricts its movement, which helps prevent additional damage to the injured area such as tearing of muscles, ligaments or re - fracturing of bones. It has little to do with preventing infections, slowing the healing process (it actually aids healing by keeping the injured parts stable), or helping the body overcome shock directly.

A. prevent it from being injured further
