We just found a fantastic tutorial for two great methods of dealing with swollen ankles using essential oils! The first method involves creating an oil blend with a base oil for massage. This sounds great â but it was the second method that really caught our eye.
Hyperplasia is increased cell production in a normal tissue or organ. Hyperplasia may be a sign of abnormal or precancerous changes. This is called pathologic hyperplasia. It can also be due to the growth of completely normal cells.
Conversely, hyperplasia defines the creation of new muscle fibers in response to exercise. Although both options could increase muscle size and strength, it is generally accepted that human muscle fibers perform hypertrophy instead of hyperplasia -- meaning you cannot grow new muscle fibers.
