An arterial ulcer (might be on the test) is very, very painful. Because you don’t have enough blood flow to carry the oxygen that your tissues need to live.

A Branick Device
A counter is the posterior portionof the shoe that stiffens the support around the heel. It contorls the heel at heelstrick and stabilizes the heels motion inside the shoe.
The box toe is the material that covers the toe box. Your toes fit into the toe box.

Tetracycline, if given to children, their teeth will be discolored and their nails will be a grey brown
liver cirrhosis, that is terry’s nails- a whitish tinge. Superficial white onychomycois occurs in AIDS patients which will also present as a white nail
Psuedomonas is a bacteria that likes to turn things green. Green alcohol is a phenomenon- rubbing alcohol that has a green food dye
jogger’s toenail…second toe will hit constantly against toe box of shoe and will get subungual hemmorage.# Subungual melanoma is a deadly skin cancer under your toe nail- you have less than 5 years to live. Bob Marley had subugnal melanoma
Onychoschizia- means nail is weak and brittle. It is peeling.
Onychomycosis- nail fungus disease
Onychomedesis- thickening of the nail over 1 mm.
Onycholysis- lifting up of the nail plate from the nail bed.
Paronychia- infection of the nail- ingrown toe nail.
Trachonychia- roughness of the nail plate (like with sandpaper).
Koilonychia- some children are born with spoon nails- nails curve in. Often times they grow out of it.
Anonychia- no nail.
Onychocryptosis- nail is ingrown but there is no infection- no pus.
Onychodystrophy- any disorder of the nail.
Anonychia- also seen in frostbite, trauma, amputation of distal toe (no distal aspect of toe= no nail!!).
Leukonychia-white nail- poisned with arsenic or with liver disease (Terry’s Nails).
Onychauxis-thickened nail plate- thickness is caused by onychomycosis and psoriasis.
Onychogryphosis- also known as a Ram’s horn nail- they are huge, curved, and brittle nails- caused by neglect. They are brittle nails- start at the distal aspect of nail when debriding. The curvature comes from the length.
Onycholysis- is detachment of the nail plate from the nail bed. if you ever picked under your finger nail and you see a bit of whiteness past the hyponychium, well, that’s where the nail plate has detached from nail bed…that can be a first sign of nail fungus when there is yellowish tinge with onycholysis.
Onychophagia- biting your nails.
Clubbing- think of pulmonary disorder. Lovibond’s angle is the angle that you see if you look at the side of your nail- it is a little less than 180…this is over 180 in clubbing disorders. Also seen in heart and liver disease, it may also be hereditary. You need to do a thorough history to figure this out. There is nothing we can do to change it when it is hereditary.
Oncyhocryptosis- ingrown nail plate at the proximal nail border but not infected. If infected paronychia. This is called proud flesh or granulation tissue when you see the red beefy tissue associated with an infected nail.
Onychomycosis is caused by a dermatophyte- same as causing athletes foot. It is caused by Trichophyum rubrum
hyperhydrosis. That is increased moisture of skin.
moccasin distribution#, the interdigital infection and the #vesicular infection
Warts display a pinpoint bleeding on debridement. Warts actually have pain upon lateral compression. So when you compress it side to side, you get a lot of pain. When you compress it directly on top of it, it doesn’t hurt
FALSE
heloma dura, which means that the corn is on the dorsal part of your digit.
Halloma mole is a soft corn, and it’s usually in the interspace; it’s an interdigital corn.
Absolutely nothing. You can’t cut somebody with poor circulation because they can’t heel at the incision site. Even if you’re debriding…with some people, you can’t even take out a nail, because they will get gangrene. This ulcer was really painful; he wanted to cut his own foot off. An arterial ulcer (might be on the test) is very, very painful. Because you don’t have enough blood flow to carry the oxygen that your tissues need to live. Never cut somebody who doesn’t have enough circulation.
