Yes. This was a fasciotomy, done almost always to relieve pressure to prevent compartment syndrome and restore blood flow to save a limb or life.

Your body doesn't care about side effects and doesn't monitor what this can cause in the process, it just wants to deal with the current injury. When your body goes too hard with this, or swells too much, it increases the pressure under the skin or muscle. If this pressure gets too high, it can squeeze the arteries and veins inside the muscles too.

Think about a stress ball. When you squeeze it really hard, you're putting pressure on it, and the stress ball will move around to disperse the pressure youre squeezing. Your body cannot do that, if you squeeze your arm as hard as you can, it doesn't act like a stress ball and just move somewhere else, its stuck there.

This little bit of pressure release is typically all that is needed to relieve pressure on the arteries and veins, allowing bloodflow through again, saving the arm/leg/whatever.

This is called a fasciotomy. It's to prevent compartment syndrome.

Typically this is a last resort emergency measure.

Love it. I feel like I have the power to summon an army of giants and trample over the world in giant form to protect my homeland
