Trauma
This type of fracture typically occurs in children whose bones are less brittle than adults.
What is a greenstick fracture?
According to the American College of Sports Medicine, this type of strain involves little tissue tearing with mild tenderness and pain with full range of motion.
What is a first-degree strain?
This type of inflammation most commonly affects the shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, and ankle.
What is bursitis?
These nodes in osteoarthritis occur at distal interphalangeal (DIP) joints.
What are Heberden's nodes?
We start losing bone density at this age.
What is 30 years old?
This modifiable risk factor can delay fracture healing.
What is smoking?
The Achilles tendon is particularly vulnerable to severe strains during this type of strong muscle contractions of the gastrocnemius and soleus.
What is an eccentric contraction?
This painful joint disorder frequently occurs in the great toe.
What is gout?
This type of arthritis involves "wear and tear" and commonly occurs in the hips, knees, hands, and spine.
What is osteoarthritis?
This imaging study is used to diagnose osteoporosis and osteopenia.
What is a DXA scan?
In fracture treatment, the acronym RICE stands for these treatment measures.
What are Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation?
This type of tendon injury involves chronic degeneration of the tendon tissues rather than acute inflammation.
What is tendonosis?
The typical presentation in imaging of this spine disorder is known as "bamboo spine".
What is ankylosing spondylitis?
This type of arthritis is caused by an autoimmune reaction.
What is rheumatoid arthritis?
Sarcopenia is defined as the loss of this type of tissue.
What is muscle tissue?
This type of musculoskeletal injury is commonly diagnosed or ruled out with an X-ray.
What is a fracture?
This grade of sprain involves a complete or near-complete tear and may require surgical repair.
What is a grade III sprain?
This pathology often includes decreased spinal joint space and nerve root irritation.
What is degenerative disc disease (DDD)?
Rheumatoid arthritis typically presents in this type of pattern.
What is a symmetrical pattern?
Increased fracture risk due to low bone density is a consequence of this pathology.
Complete bone remodeling after fracture typically happens within this time frame.
What is 18 months or less?
This type of tendon injury involves acute inflammation and responds to NSAIDs and RICE.
What is tendonitis?
This therapy environment is particularly beneficial for patients with fibromyalgia.
What is warm-water aquatic therapy?
Crepitus during joint movements is commonly associated with this type of arthritis.
What is osteoarthritis?
This type of exercise, such as walking, can be helpful in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.
What is weight-bearing exercise?
