Q

signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis

A
  1. ) painful swelling of the affected joint
  2. ) wearing away of articular college
  3. ) joint develops a crooked deformity
20
Q

a chronic systemic, autoimmune disease affecting tissue in the body. Most commonly found in the small joints of the hands/wrist and feet/ankles but can also affect the elbows and knees

A

rheumatoid arthritis

21
Q

signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis

A
  1. ) stiffness, swelling, and flunctioning pain in the affected joints
  2. ) usually symmetrical
  3. ) pronounced joint deformities
22
Q

a form of arthritis that is a result of the body’s decreased ability to control uric production or excretion, causing high levels of uric acid in the blood. This causes crystals to form in connective tissue. When crystals move to the synovial fluid in the joints, they cause sharp pains with movements

A

gout

23
Q

sign and symptoms of gout

A
  1. ) excruciating pain of the joints

2. ) affected joint is inflamed, hot, tender, and swollen

24
Q

an inflammation of one or more bursae (the fluid filled sacs) that “oil” your joints to decrease friction during moving

A

bursitis

25
Q

painful inflammation of the tendon itself or the tendon

A

tendonitis

26
Q

signs and symptoms of tendonitis

A

1.) pain with movement of the joint

27
Q

an injury into the ligaments in a joint

A

sprain

28
Q

define the grade of the sprain: mild, can be treated at home with anti inflammatory meds (R.I.C.E)

A

grade 1

29
Q

define the grade of the sprain: ligament is partially torn causing the joint to swell and become painful. bruising occurs, r.i.c.e, and possible splinting

A

grade 2

30
Q

define the grade of the sprain: ligament is completely torn. possible casting and rehabilitation

A
