Muscle pain can be more like pain in the muscle around the joint. A build-up of fluid near the sprain is also known as swelling. Strains A muscle or tendon that becomes over-stretched and/or torn is called a strain. Also, some people call a strain a “pulled muscle”. This can be caused from an accident, improper use of a muscle or over use of a muscle.
“Osteoarthritis occurs most often in older people. Younger people sometimes get osteoarthritis primarily from joint injuries”, ((NIAMS), 2012). The joints can also be damaged from an earlier accident and causes OA. When OA occur the Cartilage wears thin and the bones begin to rub together. When this happen bony spurs begin to develop.
Injuries to the growth plate are called fractures. During fracture healing, cartilage is often formed called callus. This cartilage ultimately develops into new bone tissue through the process of endochondral ossification. Ossification process can be studied in the long bones, such as the bones of the limbs. In an adult long bone can be distinguish grossly by a cylindrical shaft or diaphysis of compact bone.
1. Suture Syndesmoses Gomophosis b. A synarthrosis is a type of joint which permits very little or no movement under normal conditions. Most synarthrosis joints are fibrous. Suture joints and Gomphosis joints are synarthroses.
Running head: What are the Types of Acetabular Fractures and their Treatments? What are the Types of Acetabular Fractures and their Treatments? NAME DENG102 Instructor: DATE Abstract This research paper on will touch on the types of acetabular fractures and what type of treatment is needed for each. There will be an overview of what causes acetabular fractures and what needs to be done for patients that sustain these injuries. This research paper will take you through the steps of evaluating acetabular fractures with diagnostic imaging techniques and evaluation by the physician performing a hands on pelvic exam.
Myelomeningocele (also known as meningomyelocele) is the most severe form and involves the same sac-like protrusion through the open part of the damaged vertebrae but the sac also contains CSF and abnormal neural tissue. This form usually results in lower extremity paralysis and/or loss of sensation, neurogenic bowel and bladder, hydrocephalus. At the time of development of the brain and most
Prions are neither fungal nor viral and they contain no genetic material, but they have been held responsible for a number of degenerative brain diseases including CJD. The harmless and infectious forms of prion protein are nearly identical making it nearly impossible to tell the difference, but the infectious prion takes a folded shape compared to the normal protein. For many reasons still unknown this prion, when altered, can destroy nervous system tissues like the brain and the spinal cord. Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and its variants belong to a broad group of human and animal diseases known as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies or TSEs. The name is derived from the spongy holes that are only visible under a microscope that develop in the affected brain tissue.
Simple fractureA simple fracture is a bone that has been broken in two fragments. A simple fracture consists of three ways in which the bone breaks, which
Spondylolisthesis Spondylolisthesis is any forward slipping of one vertebrae on the one below it. Spondylo means “spine,” listhesis means “slippage.” Spondylolisthesis is a fancy way of saying “slipped vertebrae,” but not the same as “slipped disk”. The vertebrae are the bones that make up your spine. Most people have 33 vertebrae in their spinal column. Spondylolisthesis usually occurs toward the base of your spine in the lumbar area.
Brain “Bruises” (Cerebral Contusions) One of the most common and by far the most unrecognized injuries is that of a bruise. Simply, the damaging or breaking of blood vessels resulting in the swelling and or rupturing of a blood vessel. Bruises occur all over our bodies. We bruise our bones, our organs, yes, including your skin, and we even bruise our brains. The brain is comprised of incredibly soft and delicate tissue protected by very few elements, the meninges, dura matter, and the skull; which are tough rigid structures in comparison (classic.muhealth.org).
