Complications Of Skeleton

Question 1

Concussion

Answer 1

injury to the brain that usually develops from a violent/jarring action of the head. force of impact causes the brain to bounce against the inside of the skull which causes confusion and temporary loss of normal brain function (memory, judgement, reflexes, and speech)

Question 2

Herniated disk

Answer 2

results from a disruption of an intervertebral disc, allowing the jelly like central portion (nucleus pulposus) to bulge out
complications include nerve irritation causing reflex sensory and motor dysfunctions. people sometime so get weakness of leg and shooting pain depending on where in the spine it occurs.

Question 3

Axial complications

Answer 3

Concussion and herniated disk

Question 4

Rotator cuff tear

Answer 4

injury occurs when one of the humerus (ball) moves outside of the centre of the socket (glenoid fossa) pain and weakness are common symptoms

Question 5

Tennis elbow

Answer 5

two main types are lateral epicondylitis which is simple and self-limiting and represents an acute inflammatory reaction to mechanical trauma. And lateral epicondylalgia represents chronic lateral epicondyle pain that can be debilitating . hard to hold a cup without dropping it, also lots of pain when twisting door knobs.

Question 6

Jammed finger

Answer 6

sprained ligament. very painful and needs ice, compression, and elevation to reduce swelling so there is no permanent disfiguration.

Question 7

Stress fracture

Answer 7

type of fracture that results from repeated low-magnitude forces. start as a small disruption in the continuity of the outer layers of cortical bone. with continued stress to the bone, cortical bone fracture can occur from weakness. symptoms include pain in toes and shins and weakness

Question 8

Shin splints

Answer 8

pain that occurs along the medial surface of the tibia. involve pain and inflammation without disruption of the cortical bone. from having flat feet or improper grounds.

Question 9

Answer 11

lateral ankle sprains, or inversion sprains occur when stress is applied. most common is lateral. joint swells rapidly making it hard to walk. sprains easily from walking and running.

Question 12

Answer 12

Rotator cuff tear 
Tennis elbow 
Jammed finger 
Stress fracture 
Shin splints 
Jumpers knee
