work itself or the working environment of the employees. These are also possible to occur from accidents, examples being fractures and dislocations. Musculoskeletal disorders primarily affects the back, neck, shoulders and upper limbs , less often they affect the lower limbs .Health problems caused by MSD’s range from discomfort , minor aches and…

Throughout the novel, Phineas creates moments of illusory placidity to conceal the truth about the impending war, by equating games to war. Phineas yearns to avoid the war, and in order to do so he constantly forms games for Gene and the other students, as an escape. Rather than admitting to the illusion of tranquility, Phineas views games as self-accomplishment and pure entertainment, where there was always victors, never losers. In contrast, war always has a loser. During the summer session…

comes naturally and you can do this even when you are just sitting for a long time. Stretching is very simple, which can make you feel so good. Your joint movement and flexibility will improve if you consistently do it. If you lengthen or extend your limbs or body, that is already considered as an act of stretching. This helps a lot in developing and maintaining a healthy level of flexibility, referring to the variety of movement at any particular joint. Stretching is a flexibility training that…

radiculopathy can often occur due to the overall reduction in size of the intervertebral foramen (IVF). This can arise from a degenerative lesion of the zygapophyseal joints, or from a herniated disc. Most common symptoms consist of periscapular, upper- limb, and neck radicular pain; neurological symptoms may also occur in forms of sensory disturbance, weakness, and reduced tendon reflexes in the affected nerve root distribution. Many different types of methods can be used to treat cervical…

The human heart contains a specialized conduction system through which it can create and transmit electrical impulses without any external neural input. The main components of the conduction system of the heart include the SA node, AV node, Bundle of His and the Purkinje fibers. The sinoatrial node (also known as SA node) is a natural pacemaker and is responsible for depolarization of the right and left atrium. This produces a P wave on the EKG reading which is normally 0.1 second and its normal…

Anthem Not many of the people in the book Anthem’s society have courage to express their individuality or to rebel for their freedom; Equality realizes his identity is important and he needs to respect himself. The world does not define you, you do and you need to let your individuality show and let people be inspired by it. "'Your eyes,' they said, 'are not like the eyes of any among men"'. (Rand 44) This part of the book is telling that The Golden One is noticing that he is different from the…

to observe when assessing a running athlete who presented with movement dysfunction There are many ways in which dysfunction can manifest in a running athlete. Running involves the coordination of upper and lower limbs, breathing, muscle strength and length, muscular control and lower limb proprioceptive input. Injuries that occur secondary to running can present differently (Crossley, 2016), with the most common injury, especially in females, being patellofemoral joint syndrome (PFJS). Although…

In this example, the nerve receptors in the periphery, located in the arm and shoulder region, provide continuous information (feedback) to the CNS regarding the amount of resistance encountered, limb position, pressure sensed on the palms of the hands, and so on. This communication between central and peripheral nervous systems, utilizing the motor and sensory nerve pathways, is essential for us to learn, modify, and successfully perform both simple…

The structure most likely injured with the direct blow of the tibial tuberosity resulting in presentation of the lower limb (figure 1) would be the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). The presented picture shows the tibia being pushed back posteriorly. The PCL, within the knee joint, prevents posterior translation of the tibia bone related to the femur bone (Moore et., al, 2014). If the PCL is torn, then the tibia can move backward too much leading to instability of the knee. The knee joint…

For years engineers and scientist have been working to develop an efficient prosthetic. A prosthetic that is cheap, efficient, and mobile is the goal. These limbs can restore a person’s ability to write, walk, or even something as basic has holding a can of soda. One thing that would really enhance the ability of a prosthetic is for it to be able to restore a person’s sense of touch and feeling. Neutrally controlled prosthetic devices can vastly improve quality of life for amputees and paralyzed…
