3 muscle tissue fibres:
skeletal (voluntary) = hypertrophy

smooth (involuntary) =
Rhabdomyolysis
cell loss: not being able to excrete cells properly
dark urine
Compartment syndromes
Types of fractures
complete or incomplete
closed or open
Commuted
Linear
Oblique
Broken on an angle, all the way through
spiral
a fracture when one of your bones is broken with a twisting motion
transverse
perpendicular to the bone (opposite in direction)
Pathological
caused by underlying disease e.g osteoporosis
Occult
hidden
Impacted
bone is compressed
Greenstick
force bends the bone
Fracture healing
step 1 = haematoma
step 2 = fibrocartilage to form a callus
step 3 = bony callus forms
step 4 = bone remodelling occurs
Fracture complications
Support and structure injuries
strain
tear/injury to a tendon
sprain
tear/injury to a ligament
avulsion
complete separation of a tendon or ligament
Skeletal trauma
Dislocation
subluxation
