epicondylagia is a musculoskeletal disorder characterised by pain and tenderness at the lateral epicondyle.1 Whilst relatively little is known about its exact aetiology and associated risk factors, it is generally attributed to repeated forearm use and damage to the forearm muscles and tendons.1, 2 Over 40 different treatment methods have been described in literature, including rest, ice, braces, injections, and strengthening and stretching exercises. Research has found these methods to be…

the upper extremity from the pectoral area includes: 2 humerus (these are the largest and longest bones in the upper extremity articulating with the scapula, ulna, and radius); 2 radius (one of the 2 bones that forms the forearm); 2 ulnas (the second bone that makes up the forearm, on the proximal end looking resembling a monkey wrench…

War is an experience that will last with you throughout your life. You may end up traumatized or completely broken. “The Sniper” takes place in an Irish civil war, where the country had split into two parities, the Free Staters and the Republicans. Everyone was dragged into the war, and families were broken apart as they possibly went to different parties. In “The Sniper,” Liam O’Flaherty suggests the horror of war not only by representing its physical dangers, but also by its psychological…

no restrictions in motion at the hip, knee, ankle, or foot. Examination of the left upper extremity shows a posterior splint. This is removed and shows some mild swelling and ecchymoses in and around the posterior aspect of the elbow and ulnar forearm. Axillary, radial, median, and ulnar nerves are intact to motor and sensory tone. There is no evidence of vascular compromise. She is diffusely tender in and around the proximal ulna. Wrist motion is intact, though tender. Elbow motion is…

into an area of your body to numb everything below the injection site (regional anesthetic). • An incision will be made on the top of your shoulder. • If you are having a tendon graft: ○ An incision will be made in your forearm. ○ A piece of a tendon in your forearm will be removed to use as the graft. ○ This incision will be closed with stitches (sutures) and covered with a bandage (dressing). • An incision will be made in the tissues surrounding your AC joint (shoulder…

out. Nothing was wrong with this young man, he was like an ordinary person, but one thing that was strange and mysterious, was his tattoo. It was a tattoo of an eye, in the pupil of the eye, was a clock, and it was tattooed on the right side of his forearm. You may be wondering why he has such a weird tattoo, but no one knows…only himself… Jacob saw himself standing in pitch darkness. In the background, there is…

Introduction: Temperature can affect the rate at which an action potential is generated to excite an action potential within a given skeletal muscle. Maximum contraction is the ability of the muscle to recruit and produce its greatest force during a contraction, and we can observe these effects by using a grip force transducer, which records the functional grip force of the hand. Therefore, the purpose of this lab was to discern how varying temperatures affect maximum contraction. I…

The plaster slab was removed at one week, the sutures were removed and active and range of motion exercises of the elbow and forearm were started. Strengthening exercises were delayed till clinical and radiographic evidence of fracture union was seen. All patients were evaluated by the Mayo Elbow Performance Score for function, stability, pain, and range of motion (ROM) at elbow…

Egypt, one of the world’s first ancient civilization whose accomplishments still puzzle people today. One of those accomplishments is the great pyramids, vast blocks stacked a top of one another at perfect angels creating the pyramid shape. The largest pyramid built was the Pyramid of Khufu. If I was an architect on the construction of the Pyramid of Khufu I would have daily goals. A few of my daily task on a day in the beginning of construction would be finding dimensions, finding laborers, and…

not metabolized all the cocaine. The cocaine evidence supported the defense's assertion that Jeff was intoxicated the night of his death, when he came home from a boxing class and punched his son. Jeff also had several knife wounds on his hands, forearms, back, and the backs of his legs, indicating defensive wounds inconsistent with being tied to a…
