Muscles in human body is like the motor which supports or assist the bones at the joints to move and work. When the muscle pulls it moves the bones at particular joints, which establish the joints to move about.
To make a movement, the brain will send a message to the nerves to tell the muscles to contract. Muscles are made of fibres and cells, are attached to tendons, touch and very strong tissues are connecting the muscles to the bones. Every tendon is covering by a synovial sheath; also known as a tendon sheath, “a double-walled tube with a thin film of synovial fluid that acts as a lubricant to allow the tendon to glide along smoothly”. For us to make a movement, muscles will contract and the tendons will pull the bones along.
small piece of bone and the cartilage that covers it begins to crack and loosen.
The musculoskeletal and nervous systems are connected in such a way that both work together effectively and efficiently. Both the musculoskeletal and nervous systems come together in order for the human body to be able to function and complete tasks during any type of physical activity; such as kicking a ball on a soccer or football field. Muscles are designed to work together, be able to function with one another and accomplish daily movements for the human body. Each and every individual muscle coordinates with an organ or two that helps aid in movement during physical activity, understanding such functions will not only help gain knowledge of your body, but the gained knowledge will help in understanding how your body is and what to look for in the event your body experiences changes with muscles or within your nervous system.
There are 8 small bones known as carpal bones of the wrist. A ligament (also known as retinaculum) is located in front of the wrist. Between this muscle and carpal bones in a space called the carpal tunnel. The muscles that attach the forewarn muscles to the fingers that passed through the carpal tunnel. A main nerve to the hand (median nerve) also passes through this tunnel before dividing into smaller divisions in the palm of your hand.
For about the last 50 years, many researchers have believed that the sound of a cracking knuckle meant that a bubble was popped as parts of the finger were separated. But one 2015 study published in the journal PLOS ONE disproved that popular myth about joint popping. Researchers conducted an MRI scan of a finger as it cracked in real time and found that, instead, the popping sound occurred when fluid rushed into the cavity. ( Arthritis
Formation of hematoma When any bone breaks it begins to bleed causing a massive formation of a blood clot known as hematoma. Blood capillaries come in the clot and fibroblasts, macrophages, osteoclasts, and osteogenic cells begin to invade the tissue of the fracture. Then granulation tissue fills in the injury. During this stage inflammation occurs, redness and swelling is visible.
A compression fracture is a fracture of the vertebrae of the spine. Typically, it happens to the

There are three types of joins in the skeletal system each allowing different types of movements.
The hand is a very important extremity attached to the human body and is used in everyday life. Humans use it doing almost everything. The major systems the body uses to be able to move the hands are the skeletal, muscular and nerves systems. The skeletal system of the hand involves the bones, such as, eight carpal bones, five metacarpal and fourteen finger bones (Istitute for Quality & Efficiency in Health Care, 2013). All connected by joints and ligaments. The muscles include two parts, the thenar eminence and the hypothenar eminence (Istitute for Quality & Efficiency in Health Care, 2013). The thenar eminence moves the base of the thumb, also lets the thumb touch the four fingers; the hypothenar eminence allows the little finger to bend
Joints are the connecting points where two bones meet. They allow the human body to be flexible. Muscles are also necessary for movement. They pulls bones are allow them to move. Tendons attach muscles to bones while ligaments attach bones to bones. The central nervous system stimulates muscles to contract when they are stimulated by “messages”, or impulses, that are sent from motor nerves and the bursae are fluid filled sacs between joints that provide protection
Tendon – When the muscles contract it pulls the tendon that then pulls on the bones to make us move our arms and legs
Pressure injury, due to its high prevalence & probability, is nowadays seen as a patient safety issue internationally. As patient 's safety is paramount, a great importance is accorded to the issue. Even the performance of hospitals is benchmarked against the skin care quality, an attribute of quality care. This comparative essay outlines the evidence-based best practice recommendations to abate the risk of pressure injuries to patients in care. These recommendations, in essence, relate to the five research journal articles published recently.
