Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Most common in the calf muscles - strains to the achilles tendon canbecome chronic and lead to achilles tendonitis - whichis inflammmation of the achilles tendon - treat with heal lift - tape. stretch gastrocnemius and soleus - ice - e-stim - bent kn






2. Causes numbness and tingling. nerves pressed together






3. Tendonitis of the medial tendon






4. Acromioclavicular joint(AC) or sternoclavicular - shear test - due to falling on outside of shoulder






5. Hospital refer to neurosurgeon - intracranial bleeding - bone fragments embedded into the brain -infection






6. Tibia- inside - talus-under tibia - fibula-outside






7. From eversion






8. 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






9. No return to even - 2 weeks to one month whenever symptoms are gone






10. 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






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






12. Most common in the calf muscles - strains to the achilles tendon canbecome chronic and lead to achilles tendonitis - whichis inflammmation of the achilles tendon - treat with heal lift - tape. stretch gastrocnemius and soleus - ice - e-stim - bent kn






13. 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






14. Turf toe - sprain of the ligament of the big toe






15. Supraspinatus - infraspinatus - teres minor






16. Blow strikes tip of finger - jamming and avulsing the tendon - from its insertion - pain in distal interphalangal joint






17. 1st metacarpal - axil and abduction force to the thumb - mcp joint - pain/swelling - deformity - refer to physician






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






19. Tendonitis of the medial tendon






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






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






22. Pain on back - medial part of shin - not localized - pain with resisted plantar flexion and/or inversion - pain decreases after blood flow is improved






23. Blow strikes tip of finger - jamming and avulsing the tendon - from its insertion - pain in distal interphalangal joint






24. An acute fracture broken in 3 or more pieces






25. Tearing up to 3 ligaments can be out 4 weeks to 3 months






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






27. Anything wrong with the end of the bone






28. An acute fracture to a growth plate






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






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






31. Flat foot






32. 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






33. 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






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






35. 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






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






37. 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






38. Acromioclavicular joint(AC) or sternoclavicular - shear test - due to falling on outside of shoulder






39. Occur most often over the shin-pain could stay for life - must protect bruised area from further trauma - periostem-outer covering of the bone






40. Seperation of outer layer of skin from theinner layer and fluid or blood accumulates. drain fluid with sterile pin - leave loose skin if still alive






41. 1st metacarpal - axil and abduction force to the thumb - mcp joint - pain/swelling - deformity - refer to physician






42. A common site for contusions is the hee - heel cups can help with pain






43. Patella popos out of joint but needshelp being put back in usually pops lateral but pain is medial






44. Leg bones= tibia+fibula meet the tarsal bones to form the talocrural joint






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






46. 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






47. Back of leg from the tibia to the fibula






48. Patella popos out of joint but needshelp being put back in usually pops lateral but pain is medial






49. 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






50. Pain when moving shoulder overhead due to supraspinatus tendon getting pinched treat with anti inflammatory drubs and ice need to stregthen supraspinatus
