A suboccipital headache is tenderness in the four occipital muscles: rectus capitis posterior major‚ rectus capitis posterior minor‚ obliquus capitis inferior‚ and obliquus capitis superior. The main diagnostic test for neck pain is an X-ray. By getting an X-ray‚ the physician will have an

IT has three holes for the vertebral foramen and two for the transverse foramina. The thoracic vertebrae have longer and heavier transverse processes and are characterized by their articulating surfaces with the ribs. The lumbar vertebrae have pedicles and laminae that are shorter and thicker than those of other vertebrae‚ the vertebral foramen is triangular‚ and spinous processes are short. 8.) Intervertebral discs allow the spine

marrow from where all the blood cells originate after maturation. The skeletal system can be divided into 2 groups: 1. Axial skeleton: The bones here include the skull and bones of the vertebrae column. The skull is subdivided into the 8 cranial bones and 14 facial bones‚ while the vertebrae column is made up of the following; 7 cervical bones‚ 7 thoracic bone‚ 5 lumbar bones‚ 5 sacral bones and 4 coccygeal bones (all fused into 1 in the adult life). 2. Appendicular skeleton: The bones here

It encompasses a sequence of degenerative changes in the intervertebral discs‚ osteophytosis of the vertebral bodies‚ hypertrophy of the facets and laminal arches‚ and ligamentous and segmental instability. As spondylosis refers degenerative osteoarthritis of joint‚ it may cause pressure on nerve roots with subsequent sensory or motor disturbance. Clinically

INTRODUCTION Cervical disorders are common diseases that are frequently disabling and costly. Patients with cervical disorders can be classified into a two groups‚ one with specific complaints with etiology like tumors‚ fractures and degenerative spine disorders like disc herniation‚ ligamentous abnormalities‚ cervical canal stenosis and the other group of patients with nonspecific complaints (1). Most patients require surgical intervention eventually as a result of significant neurologic impairment

Cervical degenerative joint disease is the wearing down of the vertebral joints at the cervical spine‚ or the neck. There are different possibilities to the pathogenesis of this disease including axial neck pain‚ radiculopathy‚ or myelopathy. This particular patient seems to be showing signs of radiculopathy‚ which is

Firstly‚ an Ectomorph body type is normally an individual with a small and delicate body frame and bone structure‚ with lean muscle and small joints they also tend to have small shoulders making them Thin. Ectomorphs also normally have a flat chest and find it hard to gain weight they have a fast metabolism

Introduction A herniated disc occurs when a vertebral cushioning disc displaces outside the confinement of the intervertebral disc gap. The goal of this paper is to inform the reader about this impairment‚ which is typically known as herniated disc displacement. A herniated disc most commonly presents itself in individuals aged thirty to fifty years old‚ with a male to female ratio of 2:1. This disease was chosen due to ***. This will include the etiology‚ signs and symptoms‚ diagnostics‚ treatment
