VERIFIED ANSWERS AND CORRECT
QUESTIONS
Partial thickness burn - ANS-a burn in which the first layer of skin (epidermis) is burned through and the
dermis (second layer) is damaged. Burns of this type cause reddening, blistering, and a mottled
appearence. (Also called second-degree burn).
Full thickness burn - ANS-a burn involving destruction of the entire skin; extends into subcutaneous fat,
muscle, or bone and often causes severe scarring; commonly called a third-degree burn
Atopic dermatitis - ANS-Excess inflammation; dry skin, redness, and itching from allergies and irritants.
Errythema - ANS-abnormal redness of the skin
Pendiculosis - ANS-infestation with lice
,Squamous cell carcinoma - ANS-Type of skin cancer more serious than basal cell carcinoma; often
characterized by scaly red papules or nodules.
Characteristics of aging skin - ANS--wrinkles
-age spots
-enlarged pores
-delayed healing process
-decrease in melanin
-decrease in elasticity
GOUT - ANS-a type of arthritis characterized by deposits of uric acid crystals in the joints
Osteoporosis - ANS-a condition in which the bones become fragile and break easily due to loss of bone
density
Sprain - ANS-injury to a ligament
Dislocation - ANS-the total displacement of a bone from its joint
Strain - ANS-A condition resulting from damaging a muscle or tendon
Osteomalacia - ANS-disease marked by softening of the bone caused by calcium and vitamin D
deficiency
Rickets - ANS-osteomalacia in children; causes bone deformity
Scoliosis - ANS-abnormal lateral curvature of the spine
Lordosis - ANS-abnormal anterior curvature of the lumbar spine (sway-back condition- pregnancy)
, Kyphosis - ANS-excessive outward curvature of the spine, causing hunching of the back.
Compartment syndrome - ANS-involves the compression of nerves and blood vessels due to swelling
within the enclosed space created by the fascia that separates groups of muscles
Osteoarthritis - ANS-inflammation of the bones and joints, degenerative bone disease
Fracture types - ANS-classified according to position of bone and its ends after a break

- closed (simple)
- comminuted
- greenstick
- spiral
- impact
Subluxation - ANS-the partial displacement of a bone from its joint
Fibromyalgia - ANS-chronic condition with widespread aching and pain in the muscles and fibrous soft
tissue
Rheumatoid arthritis - ANS-A chronic systemic disease characterized by inflammation of the joints,
stiffness, pain, and swelling that results in crippling deformities
Ankilosing spondylitis - ANS-chronic, progressive arthritis with stiffening of joints, primarily of the spine
Paget's disease - ANS-A disease of unknown origin that is characterized by extensive breakdown of bone
tissue followed by abnormal bone formation.
Diverticulitis - ANS-inflammation of a diverticulum
