Forearm

Pain and tenderness in the upper lateral aspect of the right forearm, following the 17-year-old male’s practice, can be diagnosed as Lateral Epicondylitis, otherwise known as Tennis elbow. Specific actions causing lateral epicondylitis in this patient include the repetitive actions of a backhand stroke in tennis as well as the bending back of the wrist against the resistance of the tennis racket and ball in which causes a repetitive strain (Jariwala A. et al 2012). Pain and discomfort is felt…

underhand. A forearm pass is when the player hits the ball with both of their forearms. To succeed in this skill a player needs to put their hands together and hit the ball between their forearms. A set is when a player uses both of their hands to push the ball up. To do this skill a players makes a hypothetically “window” with their hands and push the ball up towards the sky. A spike is basically an overhand serve when the ball is in play. The common sequence for volleyball is forearm pass,…

REASON CHIEF COMPLAINT: Right forearm lesion. BLANKLINE The patient was referred for a right forearm lesion that he claims has since resolved. He gives a history of a skin cancer of unknown type that was excised from his left chest about 10 years ago. He has questions concerning several stuck on keratoses over his trunk and extremities that he claims are similar to the resolved site on his right forearm. He also has a 3-4 month history of an asymptomatic slowly enlarging site of his right…

fold. Contraction of the triceps causes your arm to extend , your biceps muscle is attached to your shoulder blade at one end and to your ulna in your forearm at the other end. When the biceps contracts, it shortens and pulls the ulna toward the shoulder blade (the ulna is attached to the elbow joint). This movement allows you to lift your forearm and a given load. Full Answer Different muscle groups are responsible for the action of the major joints in the leg. For example the muscles of the…

Caucasian woman who presented to the office with bruises on her left forearm and right hand. She had a history of diabetes, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, peripheral vascular disease, and arthritis. Upon completion of her history and physical exam, large dark purplish irregular patches were noted on the left dorsal portion of bilateral forearms. The areas did not blanch and appeared to be isolated areas to bilateral forearms. There were no other signs of bleeding noted or verbalized per…

fingers extending off of it that curve towards the right. Her forearm extending from her wrist is curved towards the left. Because of her very limited range of motion, this design relies fundamentally on electronics to be actuated. The prosthetic hand that this arm design is based off of is the InMoov hand which can be voice activated. The following will describe the mechanical design, the electronics, and the software of this arm. The forearm shield, the components in the hand, and the bicep…

To begin this process, we placed electrodes on 3 parts of our dominant forearm. We then began clenching; this happened four times, with each clench being stronger than the previous one. On the last clench, we clenched the hand dynamometer as tight and as long as possible in order to fatigue the muscles. We repeated this step…

in the forearm but thought of a plan and killed the other soldier because he’s taught to not let his emotions get in the way of his job. It was unfair that he was put to a disadvantage, but he had to deal with it in order to kill the other soldier, who was firing at him, and in order to survive. Being shot is a major conflict in “The Sniper”, not only because it put him to a disadvantage, but also because his instincts were really put to the test. As a result of being shot in the forearm, the…

A Colles fracture is a type of broken wrist. It means your radius bone is broken or cracked. The radius is the bone of your forearm on your thumb’s side. The forearm is the part of your arm between the elbow and your wrist. Your forearm is made up of two bones called the radius and the ulna. Often when the radius is broken, the ulna may also be broken. A cast or splint is used to protect and keep your injured bone from moving as it heals. CAUSES • A direct blow to the wrist. • Falling on…

The final results of the experiment showed that the area under the graph of the absolute values of the EMG is a linear relation to the strength of the muscle contraction. This is due to the amount of force a muscle produce. As I squeezed the bulb in my hand harder, the duration of the burst of activity increases with the duration of the muscle contraction. So depending on the amount of fibers participating in the contractions this can contribute to the graded contractions. As my grip became…
