1. Back of leg from the tibia to the fibula






2. Weakness of a bone - only way to heal it is rest for apoximatly four weeks - overuse injury - caused by a change in training - rapid gain in weight - training surface - shoes - predisposition - flat orhigh arches - localized pain - increased pain aft






3. Transverse






4. Most common knee condition - caused by outside quad muscle being stronger than iside - causes knee cap to slide laterally and over time causes cartilage on underside of kneecap to swell because it rubs on femur - sometimes feels like it needs to pop






5. An acute fracture usually to the ortib of the eye have the injured person more eye in each direction






6. Causes numbness and tingling. nerves pressed together






7. 1. inversion-most common - bottom of foot goes in 2. bottom of foot goes out - there is a high risk of fracture 3. plantar flexion-toes to ground 4. dorsiflexion-toes up to shin






8. Fascia is thick - fibrous tissue that helps support the arch - very common injury - esp in runners - freeze water bottle and roll it under foot - insoles are also very helpful






9. These are injured from inversion 1. anterior talofibular-most commonly sprained - test with drawer test 2. posterior talofibular-talus under tibia 3. calcaneofibular- calcaneo=heel






10. Sling shoulder injuries






11. Apply compression with horeshoe to minimize swelling remember compression is more important than ice ace wrap starts at foot - move up as you wrap






12. Weakness of a bone - only way to heal it is rest for apoximatly four weeks - overuse injury - caused by a change in training - rapid gain in weight - training surface - shoes - predisposition - flat orhigh arches - localized pain - increased pain aft






13. Sprain to the first metatarsal phalangeal joint (big toe) ice and tape rest if possible






14. Bursa sac prevents muscle rubbing on bone - often called water on theknee - can be drained - but increases risk of infecton






15. Anything wrong with the end of the bone






16. Valgus test - larger of the collaterals - heals better - connects from medial femoral condyle to the medial tibia - some fibers connect to medial meniscus - injured when receive blow to lateral portion of knee






17. 1.acute fracture-goes away and heals 2. stress fracture 3. epipyseal damage 4. periostitis-imflammation of periostem






18. Blunt trauma - or fall on the head - severe headache - nasua - skull indentation - nose bleed - bleeding ears - black eyes - discoloration behind ears- battle sign - cerbospinal fluid from ears and nose -its yellowish






19. Toenail curls into skin and causes infection - treat by stuffing toe withsmall amount of cotton






20. 7 tarsals - 5 metatarsals - 14 phalanges






21. Ice - insoles - orthotics. strengthen affected muscle - stretch gastric and soleus - modify workouts






22. 1st metacarpal - axil and abduction force to the thumb - mcp joint - pain/swelling - deformity - refer to physician






23. Straps around knee - often called jumpers knee - overuse condition






24. Any loss of consciousness - nausea and vomiting - glazed eyes - ringing in ears - dizziness






25. Repeated pull of patella tendon at tibial tuberosity on front of femur - pain at attachement of patella tendon - occurs in young athletes when grwoing to fast - they will eventurally grow out of it - cant really treat just ice a sleeve may help






26. Strongest ligament in knee - not as important to function as acl - injured fromheyperextenson or fromhtting bent knee on object -






27. An acute fracture broken in 3 or more pieces






28. Have athlete stand with feet together and check their balance if they sway then it is a positive test for a condussion






29. An acute fracture goes down bone






30. Thickening of outer layer of skin from constant friction. can soften skin and trim excess callus tissue - donut padmay help with pain






31. Muscle tearing away from bone - pain on both sides of shin - small muscles in shin attach directly to bone - not by tendon - when overuse occurs these mucles pull on periosteum causing inflammation and pain






32. From eversion






33. Tweak no time out up to 1 week out






34. Toenail curls into skin and causes infection - treat by stuffing toe withsmall amount of cotton






35. Fastest joint in the body - made up sternum - clavicle - humerus - and scapula






36. Main stabilizing ligament in knee - lachmans - vital to function of knee - knee gives out when injured - need surgery - stops the femurfrom rolling too far on top of the tibia - injured from rotation and hyperextension






37. Fungal infection - feness - scaling - cracking and itching between toes. treat by drying foot thoroughly after shower and applying fungicide - wear clean white socks






38. Strongest ligament in knee - not as important to function as acl - injured fromheyperextenson or fromhtting bent knee on object -






39. Flat foot






40. Varus - connects from lateral femoral condyle to the fibular head - injured when receive blow to medial portion of knee






41. Cartilage on top of tibia - shock absorption between tibia and femur - injured or torn by becoming trapped - pinched or crushed between femur and tibia - person complains of locking with injury






42. Rupture of flexor digitorum profundus tendon






43. 7 tarsals - 5 metatarsals - 14 phalanges






44. Tendonitis of the medial tendon






45. Gets knocked out - is fine then goes down hill






46. Pop of the achilles tendon - surgery is needed - dectectable with thompson test - squeeze back of calf - foot should move - sometimes calf balls up






47. An acute fractrue chunk of bone is torn away usually in fingers






48. Varus - connects from lateral femoral condyle to the fibular head - injured when receive blow to medial portion of knee






49. Synovial






50. Confusion - no loss of consciousness - symptoms reslolve in 15 min
