PATHOLOGIES of the SKELETAL SYSTEM 2024-01-15
Across
- - Softening and degeneration of the cartilage on the underside of the kneecap.
- - Inflammation or infection of the bone, often caused by bacteria.
- - Compression of the median nerve as it passes through the carpal tunnel in the wrist, causing pain and numbness.
- - Condition where bone mineral density is lower than normal, but not low enough to be classified as osteoporosis.
- - Inflammation of a tendon, often caused by overuse or injury.
- - Result of a broken bone, often due to trauma or stress.
- - Aggressive form of bone cancer, originating in the cells that form bones.
- - Softening and weakening of bones in children, usually due to a vitamin D deficiency.
- - Abnormal stiffening and immobility of a joint due to fusion of bones.
- - Chronic inflammation affecting joints, causing pain and swelling.
- - Condition characterized by fragile bones due to decreased density.
Down
- - Degenerative joint disease involving the breakdown of cartilage.
- - Chronic condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain and fatigue.
