 State some consequences of impaired
musculoskeletal system on support & locomotion
 To practise ways to care for the musculoskeletal
system

 Are large, involuntary and
painful contradictions which M u s c le
develop when there is a lack
of stretching during an
exercise. A depletion of
C ra mp
glycogen as well as a
decline in the muscle’s
ability to generate a force
to contribute to muscle
cramp

 Can last for 15 minutes or
more depending on the extent
of the cramp

 Hamstring muscles at the
back of the thigh and calf
are usually affected

 Heat, massage , rubbing and
rest can reduce cramps.

 Are a group of genetic
disorders characterised
of genetic progressive
weakening &
degeneration of
muscles.

 Is cause by mutations in
a gene on the X
chromosome, a sex
chromosome. The mutated
gene makes the body
unable to produce the
proteins needed to build
and maintain healthy.

 Usually affects children

 A child who is
diagnosed with
muscular dystrophy
gradually loses the
ability to carry
out the daily
activities. The
muscles fibre
weaken and the
child tend to fall.
The patient usually
does not live long
due to the
inability to
breath.

 Bring sex-linked,
as it is present in
the X chromosome,
this disorder
affects more males
than females.

 There is no cure
for this disease,
though medication
and therapy are
provided to slow
the course of the
disease

O s te o p o r
o s is  Sets in as a person
ages, especially in
menopausal women.
The bones decrease
during mass, become
hollow and brittle

 Occurs when
reabsorption of
calcium and
phosphates into
the bloodstream is
more than the
withdrawing of
calcium during the
formation of bones

 Physical
inactivity,
calcium
deficiency,
insufficient
vitamin D,
declining
activity of
bones, cells and
insufficient sex
hormones can
contribute to
osteoporosis.

 This disorder usually
affects the spongy ones,
including the vertebral
column and long bones such
as the humerus and femur.

 Osteoporosis can be
prevented or minimised
through the following
method.
 Prevention beginning from
childhood with good
nutrition and exercise
 A balanced diet including
an adequate calcium
intake
 Fall prevention in
elderly people

A r t h r it is
 Arthiritis is inflammation of the
joints. It can cause pain and
swelling in your joints.

 This disorder is due to the
exhaustion of cartilage, depletion
of synovial membrane at the synovial
joints

 There are over 100 types of
arthritis. The common ones are
rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis
& gout.

 Rheumatoid Arthritis
 Can occur at any age.
Usually affects women
 Cartilage become less as they
grows older at the joints they
always use causing pain and
stiff

 Osteoarthritis
 Permanent joints inflammation
 Cartilage become less as they
grows older at the joints they
always use causing pain and
stiff

 Gout Arthritis
 A disease caused by the
accumulation of uric acid in the
joints
