28
What is myofascial trigger point
a discreet, hypersensitive nodule within a taut band of skeletal muscle and/or fascia
29
What is a the difference between a latent and active trigger point
does not cause spontaneous pain but may restrict movement or cause muscle weakness; causes pain at rest
30
what is ecchymosis
black-and-blue skin discoloration caused by hemorrhage
31
What is myositis ossificans
calcium formations that are found between fibers in the muscle belly or form a spur that projects from the underlying bone
32
What are synovial joints
two or more bones that articulate to allow motion in one or more places

pieces of synovial membrane that contain a small amount of fluid
44
what covers a bone and contains the blood supply
periosteum

humerus, ulna, femur, tibia, fibula, phalanges
50
what are osteoblasts
bone-forming cells
51
how does bone ossification occur
synthesis of bone's organic matrix by osteoblasts, followed immediately by the calcification of this matrix
52
what are osteoclasts
cells that resorb bone
53
at what age does bone loss exceed bone gain
35-40
54
what is osteoporosis
increased bone porosity
55
what is a closed fracture
there is little or no movement or displacement of the broken bone
56
what is an open fracture
there is enough displacement of the fractured ends that the bone actually breaks through surrounding tissues
57
what is a greenstick fracture
incomplete breaks in bones that have not completely ossified
58
what is a comminuted fracture
consist of three or more fragments at the fracture site
59
what is a linear fracture
the bone splits along its length
60
what is a transverse fracture
occur in a straight line, more or less at right angles to the bone shaft

occur when one end of the bone receives sudden torsion or twisting while the other end is fixed
62
what is a spiral fracture
S-shaped separation
63
what are impacted fractures
results from a fall from a height, which causes a long bone to receive, directly on its long axis a force of such magnitude that the osseous tissue is compressed
64
what is an avulsion fracture

what is a serrated fracture
two bony fragments have a sawtooth, sharp-edged fracture line, are usually caused by a direct blow

what causes spiral fractures
torsion
69
what causes oblique fractures

what causes transverse fractures
bending
71
what are typical causes of stress fractures
1. overtraining 2. going back into competition too soon after an injury 3. going from one event to other without proper training 4. starting initial training too quickly 5. changing habits or the environment
72
what factors can predispose someone to a stress fracture

hyperesthesia
increased sense of feelings such as pain or touch
