26、 and Conditions of the Skeletal System,Arthritis,Bursitis,Inflammation of the Bursa (fluid filled sac surrounding the joint).A bursa can become inflamed from injury, infection (rare in the shoulder), or due to an underlying rheumatic condition.Bursitis is typically identified by localized pain or sw
27、elling, tenderness, and pain with motion of the tissues in the affected area.,Tendonitis,Sometimes the tendons become inflamed for a variety of reasons, and the action of pulling the muscle becomes irritating. If the normal smooth gliding motion of your tendon is impaired, the tendon will become inf
28、lamed and movement will become painful. This is called tendonitis, and literally means inflammation of the tendon.The most common cause of tendonitis is overuse.,Carpal Tunnel Syndrome,Any condition that causes swelling or a change in position of the tissue within the carpal tunnel can squeeze and i
29、rritate the median nerve. Irritation of the median nerve in this manner causes tingling and numbness of the thumb, index, and the middle fingers, a condition known as carpal tunnel syndrome.,Osteoporosis,Osteoporosis is a term that means porous bones. It is a skeletal disease affecting women and men
30、. Osteoporosis is a condition in which bones have lost minerals especially calciummaking them weaker, more brittle, and susceptible to fractures (broken bones). Any bone in the body can be affected by osteoporosis, but the most common places where fractures occur are the back (spine), hips, and wris
31、ts.,Scoliosis,Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine. If your child has scoliosis, the view from behind may reveal one or more abnormal curves.Scoliosis runs in families, but doctors often dont know the cause. More girls than boys have severe scoliosis. Adult scoliosis may be a worsening of
32、 a condition that began in childhood, but wasnt diagnosed or treated. In other cases, scoliosis may result from a degenerative joint condition in the spine.,Kyphosis,With kyphosis, your spine may look normal or you may develop a hump. Kyphosis can occur as a result of developmental problems; degener
33、ative diseases, such as arthritis of the spine; osteoporosis with compression fractures of the vertebrae; or trauma to the spine. It can affect children, adolescents and adults.,Lordosis,A normal spine, when viewed from behind appears straight. However, a spine affected by lordosis shows evidence of
34、 a curvature of the back bones (vertebrae) in the lower back area, giving the child a swayback appearance.,Tuberculosis of the Spine- Potts Disease,As a form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis that impacts the spine, Potts disease has an effect that is sometimes described as being a sort of arthritis fo
35、r the vertebrae that make up the spinal column. More properly known as tuberculosis spondylitis, Potts disease is named after Dr. Percivall Pott, an eighteenth century surgeon who was considered an authority in issues related to the back and spine.Potts disease is often experienced as a local phenom
36、enon that begins in the thoracic section of the spinal column. Early signs of the presence of Potts disease generally begin with back pain that may seem to be due to simple muscle strain. However, in short order, the symptoms will begin to multiply.,Rickets,Rickets is the softening and weakening of
37、bones in children, usually because of an extreme and prolonged vitamin D deficiency.Some skeletal deformities caused by rickets may need corrective surgery.,Scurvy,The human body lacks the ability to synthesize and make vitamin C and therefore depends on exogenous dietary sources to meet vitamin C n
38、eeds. Consumption of fruits and vegetables or diets fortified with vitamin C are essential to avoid ascorbic acid deficiency. Even though scurvy is uncommon, it still occurs and can affect adults and children who have chronic dietary vitamin C deficiency.,Gout,Gout is a disease that results from an
39、overload of uric acid in the body. This overload of uric acid leads to the formation of tiny crystals of urate that deposit in tissues of the body, especially the joints. When crystals form in the joints it causes recurring attacks of joint inflammation (arthritis). Chronic gout can also lead to dep
40、osits of hard lumps of uric acid in and around the joints and may cause joint destruction, decreased kidney function, and kidney stones.,Acromegaly,Acromegaly is a serious condition that occurs when the body produces too much of the hormones that control growth. The hormone most often affected is ca
41、lled growth hormone, or GH. Itis produced by the pituitary gland, a tiny organ at the base of the brain.Growth hormonepromotes growth of bone, cartilage, muscle, organs, and other tissues.When there is too much growth hormone in the body, these tissues grow larger than normal. This excessive growth
42、can cause serious disease and even premature death.,Poliomyelitis,Poliomyelitis (polio) is a highly infectious disease caused by a virus. It invades the nervous system, and can cause total paralysis in a matter of hours. It can strike at any age, but affects mainly children under three (over 50% of
43、all cases). The virus enters the body through the mouth and multiplies in the intestine. Initial symptoms are fever, fatigue, headache, vomiting, stiffness in the neck and pain in the limbs. One in 200 infections leads to irreversible paralysis (usually in the legs). Amongst those paralysed, 5%-10%
44、die when their breathing muscles become immobilized. Although polio paralysis is the most visible sign of polio infection, fewer than 1% of polio infections ever result in paralysis. Poliovirus can spread widely before cases of paralysis are seen. As most people infected with poliovirus have no sign
45、s of illness, they are never aware they have been infected. After initial infection with poliovirus, the virus is shed intermittently in faeces (excrement) for several weeks. During that time, polio can spread rapidly through the community.,Spina Bifida,Spina bifida is a birth defect that involves t
46、he incomplete development of the spinal cord or its coverings. The term spina bifida comes from Latin and literally means split or open spine.Spina bifida occurs at the end of the first month of pregnancy when the two sides of theembryos spine fail to join together, leaving an open area. In some cas
47、es, the spinal cord or other membranes may push through this opening in the back. The condition usually isdetected before a baby is born and treated right away.,Talipes Equinovarus- “Clubfoot”,Clubfoot is a deformity of the whole foot that is present at birth. There are several types of clubfoot tha
48、t are jointly known as talipes, as the deformity is mostly in the talus (a bone in the ankle). The most common of the talipes is what is known as talipes equino varus - it is so common that the word clubfoot is commonly used to refer to this. In talipes equino varus, the child is born with the foot pointing down and twisted inwards at the ankle.,Sarcoma,Osteosarcoma-The most common type of bone cancer. It arises in bone and is most commonly found in children and adolescents but a rare form occurs in adults, particularly in patients who have been cured of other cancers with radiation therapy.,
