covers the bones
Periosteum
sutures between skull bones(immovable)
Fibrous Joints
joints between vertebrae
Cartilaginous joints
(shoulders, wrists, hips, knees, ankles) contain a space between a bones that is filled by synovial fluid.
Synovial joints
skeletal muscles attach to bones by way of strong, fibrous chords.
Tendons
strong, dense bands of fibrous connective tissue.
Ligaments
contains synovial joints, which are small sacs filled with synovial fluid that serve to cushion the joint.
Bursae
contains synovial joints, which are small sacs filled with synovial fluid that serve to cushion the joint.
Bursae
Osteoporosis fractures most commonly occur in the spine, wrist, and hip. Spinal fractures lead to loss in height and development of a curved upper back.
Dowager hump
disorder characterized by widespread muscoskeletal pain accompanied bu fatigue,sleep,memory, and mood changes or cognitive disorder.
Fibromyalgia
can cause osteomalacia and limit calcium absorption.
Vitamin D deficiency
softening of bones
Osteomalacia
Progressive loss of total bone mass
osteopenia/osteoporosis
Degeneration of of skeletal muscle fibers
Sarcopenia
Flattened lumbar curvature may be seen with a
herniated lumbar disk or ankylosing spondylitis.
seen with nerve or muscle damage or lack of use.
Muscle atrophy-
chronic pain and severe limitation of all shoulder motions are seen.
Calcified tendonitis
Inability to shrug shoulders against resistance is seen with a lesion of
cranial nerve XI- spinal accessory.
due to repetitive movements of the forearm or wrists
Epicondylitis(tennis elbow)
Fluid filled cyst
ganglion
Inability to extend the ring and little fingers
Dupuytren contracture
infection of the flexor tendon sheathes.
Tenosynovitis
a stretch or tear of muscle or tendons,often occur in the Lower back and hamstring muscle
Strains
