Dupuytren’s Disease, also known as Dupuytren’s Contractures, palmar fascitis, Viking Disease, or palmar fibromatosis, is a hand deformity that usually develops slowly, usually over years. This disease is caused by the thickening and contraction of the palmar fascia. As the disease progresses, nodules progress to form longitudinal bands referred to as cords on the palmar fascia, and the finger gradually loses extension, with contractures that draw one or more fingers into flexion at the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint, proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint, or both of these joints.
According to sports medicine clinic, Game Ready, the average groin sprain takes from 3-6 weeks to recover. If Bailey were to be out for 6 weeks he would be missing 5 games against NFC teams, 3 of which are must-win divisional

“The doctor of the future will give no medication, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, diet and in the cause and prevention of disease” by Thomas A. Edison. Chiropractors use hands-on spinal manipulation and other alternative treatments on the spine which will enable the body to heal itself without surgery or medication. Chiropractic care began in 1895 when its founder, Daniel David Palmer, claimed any and all diseases could be healed by nothing more than just his hands. Dr. Palmer examined a janitor who was deaf for 17 years after the janitor felt his back was out of place, so Dr. Palmer gave an adjustment to what was felt to be a misplaced vertebra in the upper back. The janitor then observed that his hearing improved thanks to Dr. Palmer. Chiropractors use manipulation to restore mobility to joints restricted by tissue injury caused by sitting without proper back support. Chiropractic is primarily used as a pain relief alternative for muscles, joints, bones, and connective tissue, such as cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. About 22 million Americans visit chiropractors annually
... middle of paper ... ... One should also rest a lot when they have a concussion. One may have to sit out for longer than expected, but that is because one’s brain needs time to heal physically and mentally.
“Well for about 9 in 10 people with concussions,symptoms disappear within 7 to 10 days(“news in health”)and since you have post concussion syndrome you are probably going to be out the whole season,”the doctor stated.

There are many injuries in general, but sports injuries? Sprains and Strains are the most common injuries in sports. “Sprains are injuries to ligaments, the tough bands connecting in a joint. Suddenly stretching ligaments past their limits deforms or tears them” (Hoffman 1). Ligaments are like springs in a sense that when you stretch a spring, it will return to it’s normal state unless they are

Hip Dysplasia is a very common joint disorder that affects mainly large breed dogs. The joint that is effected in the disorder is the hip joint which is made up of the ball and the socket. When hip dysplasia occurs, the hip joints do not develop normally eventually deteriorating and cause a loss of function in the hip joints. As a result, the joint will become loose and can result in the joint disease called osteoarthritis. Symptoms an animal with hip dysplasia will often show include a decrease in activity, refusal to climb stairs or run due to pain, rapid weight gain, a decreased range of motion in the hips, and “bunny-hopping” movement. Lameness, or an abnormal stance or walk, is also often present in dogs with the disorder.
Cervical strain and sprain are injuries that affect the tissues that connect the bones in the neck (cervical spine). A strain is when muscles or tissues (tendons) that connect muscles to bones stretch or tear. A sprain is when the tissues (ligaments) that connect bones to one another stretch or tear. Cervical strains and sprains usually happen because of "whiplash" injuries. These are injuries caused by a sudden forward and backward whipping movement of the head and neck.
...tured differently than a normal spine because the ligaments in the spine are more flexible; therefore, this allows the back to bend. Contortionists are also prone to injuries such as, limbus fractures, arthritis, dextroscoliosis, osteophytes, disc bulges, and annular tears. If contortionists did not have some of these injuries, we would not be able to enjoy this incredible and unusual art.
