How Does a Doctor Read Your X-Ray? There are three bones that make up the ankle joint- the tibia‚ fibula‚ and talus. When the ankle is fractured‚ it most commonly involves the distal tibia (medial malleolus) or distal fibula (lateral malleolus). If a doctor suspects a fracture‚ an X-Ray is often required. Why is this required if a doctor already knows the ankle is fractured? There are three standards views from which an ankle can be X-Rayed. First‚ the Anterior-Posterior (AP) view is a straight

injuries such as bone fractures or ligament injuries require intensive care as well as a substantial amount of time for recovery. Sports horses by very nature have a higher percentage to encounter such injuries. These injuries can become a huge problem not only physically‚ but can also determine the lifespan of the injured horse. In Equine‚ the suspensory ligaments consist of a strong band of tendon-like tissue that lies along the back of the cannon bone between the splint bones (ucsdavis pg 4).

Osteoporosis is a condition of low bone density that can progress silently over a long period of time. Osteoporosis has no symptoms until a fracture occurs‚ which causes bone pain‚ height loss‚ and abnormal spine curvature. If a fracture is determined to be due to osteoporosis‚ it is considered a pathological fracture‚ which is a break of a diseased or weakened bone without any identifiable trauma or following a minor injury that would not ordinarily break a healthy bone (Manolagas). If diagnosed early

It can also be caused by stress fractures‚ which are tiny breaks in the lower leg bones. Shin splints are very common. Runners might get them after ramping up their workout intensity‚ or changing the surface they run on‚ like shifting from a dirt path to asphalt. There are several ways you can treat shin splints.

Further damage to the joint is visible due to the onset of arthritis - a bone/joint disease. Orthopedic surgery or orthopedics (also spelled orthopaedic surgery and orthopaedics) is the branch of surgery concerned with conditions involving the musculoskeletal system. Orthopedic surgeons use both surgical and nonsurgical means

The Skeletal System is the framework of the body‚ consisting of 206 bones as well as a network of tendons that is made of tough band of fibrous collagen tissue connecting a muscle to bone‚ ligaments connecting bones to joint and cartilage that allows some flexibility of movement. The skeletal system serves 4 functions: (1) Giving the body its shape (2) Protecting the vital internal organs (3) Allowing for movement (4) Storing minerals and producing blood cells The skeletal system has 6 basic components:

Osteoblast are cells that generate bones‚ osteoclasts are cells that destroy bone. 3. How many bones do we have in our body? 206 4. What do bones need in order to be healthy? Exercise‚ hormones‚ and vitamin d‚ a‚ & c. 5. Differentiate between tendons‚ ligaments and joints.
