Question

Write in detail about the dislocation and factors among the bones and joint injuries.
and laceration.​

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) Fractures: Stress fractures: It is an overuse injury. It occurs when muscles become fatigued and are unable to absorb added shock. The fatigued muscle transfers the overload of stress to the bone causing a tiny crack called a stress fracture. Green stick fracture: The break occurs only part way through the bone. It develops crack without being completely broken. It is common in children. Transverse fracture: It means breaking in one of the bones of spine. The bone is broken straight across. Comminuted fracture: The bone splinters, shatters usually due to a crushing injury. Impacted fracture: When the broken ends of both the bones drive into one another. (b) Joint injuries: These include dislocation with subluxation and luxatiom. Dislocation occurs when the position of bones in joints is altered. It is a displacement of cartigeous surface of bones comprising a joint. It is of two types: Subluxation: Bones of joints are only partially displaced. Luxation: Bones of joints are totally displaced First aid for joint injuries: (a) Keep the patient in comfortable position which he/she wishes to assume. (ii) Movement is restricted to avoid further complications. (c) The injured part is supported by use of slings and bandage. (d) Apply ice pack to reduce swelling and to reduce pain. (e ) The patient should be transported to nearby hospital in a comfortable Position
