Joint dislocation

a. The subtendinous olecranon bursa is located between the tendon of the triceps brachii and the olecranon process (Starkey, et al., 2011). b. Normally, this bursa is not affected, but it may become inflamed secondary to a repetitive stress on the joint (Starkey, et al., 2011). 23. Supinator a. The supinator originates on the lateral epicondyle/ supinator crest of ulna, and inserts onto the proximal portion of the radius (Starkey, et al., 2011). b. This muscle aids in the motion of forearm…

and has full active range of motion. He has medial joint line tenderness and pain with squatting. What is the most likely diagnosis? A. Anterior cruciate ligament tear B. Lateral collateral ligament tear C. Medial collateral ligament tear…

the pelvis anteriorly[17]. 2.2.2 Psoas This muscle is only muscle group in human body with direct attachment to the spine, the pelvis and the femur. Therefore it has potential to influence, and influenced by movement at both of the spine and hip joints[18]. 2.2.3 Gluteal maximus muscle: superficial group The gluteus maximus muscle is the one of the largest muscle in the gluteal region and it covers most of the other gluteal muscles. It is quadrangular in shape and has a broad origin at…

Genus Dysteria (Huxley, 1857) Synonyms: Aegyria Ehrenberg, 1838; Ervilia Dujardin, 1841 This genus was first reported by Huxley in 1857. It is a member of class Phyllopharyngea shows characters such as ciliated stage with somatic kineties mostly as monokinetids that each have a lateral kinetodesmal fibril, a reduced or absent, transverse microtubular ribbon. This genus belongs to subclass Phyllopharyngia show characters such as trophonts free-swimming, may be sessile but usually not…

Flat bone Flat bones are bones whose principal function is either extensive protection or the provision of broad surfaces for muscular attachment, the outer one is thick and tough; the inner is thin, dense, and brittle, and hence is termed the vitreous (glass-like) table. It helps the body by protect. Flat bones are bones whose principal function is either extensive protection or the provision of broad surfaces for muscular attachment. A sporting example is heading a football because the skull…

is a major cause of chronic pain in musculoskeletal areas and is most common in knee and hip. It is a degenerative joint disease that it is affecting a large number of populations. It is related to the breakdown of a joint’s cartilage. Cartilage is a cushioning and is a rubber material that is present at the end of bones in the joints. The osteoarthritis condition makes the joints stiff and causes the elasticity to loose thus making it vulnerable to damage. It is most common disease for the…

Hip Bursitis Hip bursitis is inflammation of a fluid-filled sac (bursa) in the hip joint. The bursa protects the bones in the hip joint from rubbing against each other. This condition can cause mild to moderate pain, and symptoms often come and go over time. CAUSES This condition may be caused by: • Injury to the hip. • Overuse of the muscles surrounding the hip joint. • Arthritis or gout. • Diabetes. • Thyroid disease. • Cold weather. • Infection. In some…

There are three bones that meet to form you knee joint. There is your thighbone which is you femur, you shinbone which is your tibia, and you kneecap which is your patella. Articular cartilage covers the ends of the tibia and the fibula, also the back of the patella. Bones are connected through ligaments, our knees have four main ligaments. Two of the ligaments in our knee is the medial collateral ligament (MCL), this ligament prevents valgus (force from the outside of the knee, forcing the knee…

Ligaments connect bones together and are made up of grossly parallel, fibrous, dense connective tissue.1 Many ligaments are parts of anatomically inseparable structures known as joint capsules, and this is certainly the case with the wrist. Ligaments often have a more vascular overlying layer termed the "epiligament" covering their surface. This layer is often indistinguishable from the actual ligament and merges into the periosteum of the bone around the attachment sites of the ligament.7…

How to Use a Stirrup Ankle Brace A stirrup ankle brace is a device used to provide stability to an injured ankle so it can heal. It may be put on after an ankle after an ankle injury, such as an ankle strain or sprain, or after a cast around the ankle has been removed. An stirrup ankle brace can be comfortably worn inside most athletic shoes. An ankle brace is made of stiff material that fits under the arch of the foot and goes up the sides of the leg. The liner of the brace may be made of a…
