Case study assessment. A 47-year-old female patient attends a Birmingham podiatry clinic with callus and heloma durum presenting on the plantar surface of the 1st MTPJ of the left foot. The patient is generally fit and well, and requires routine treatment. To enable the podiatrist to treat callus and corn, they must first understand the biological process that leads to the pathology. Callus, or hyperkeratosis, a diffuse area of relatively even thickness (Lorimer et al.1997), is formed from
3_Bump on Bottom of Foot (1,000 words) A localized condition of swelling, growth or bump on the bottom of your foot may be cause for attention. This may be caused by injury, infection or inflammation. These bumps may be small or large and may have mild or severe pains that are associated with them. This article will explain possible causes, treatment, and prevention for bumps on the bottom of your feet. Possible Causes 1. Blisters When friction causes two layers of your skin to separate, a blister
Student No.: 12012403 Portfolio Task: Module 6 (526) “Write a properly referenced essay on the treatment and management of a patient with corns.” A corn is a thickened area of skin that can occur anywhere on the foot due to pressure. This thickening appears as a cone shaped mass pointing down into the skin. Hard corns (heloma durum) tend to be found on the outer surface of the little toe or on the upper surface of the other toes. Soft corns (heloma molle) occur between toes and are kept soft
concepts. Paul Callus’s poem, “Unspoken Words”, demonstrates how an idea is an individual’s sense of belonging, up until it’s shared with others. An idea being shared becomes an open discussion for criticism instead of growth upon the idea. In the poem, Callus demonstrates in line two, “The words I find so hard to say”, of a person’s thoughts. It explains how it is difficult to share and promote ideas to other individuals. Creators of ideas are in fear or in doubt to share creations because of losing ownership
III- MATERIALS AND METHODS The present investigation was carried out at the experimental farm and tissue culture laboratory of Genetics Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Zagazig University and biotechnology laboratory of Botany Department, NRC Egypt during the period 2011-2015. 3.1. Materials The genetic materials used in this study comprised five parental genotypes of hexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and their ten F1 hybrids. The five parental genotypes include four local varieties
bone tissue as well as generation of new tissue when fractured. (“Bone Remodeling and Repair” boundless.com) Bone repair consists of four phases overlapping phases; hematoma formation/initial inflammatory response, bone generation/soft callus formation, hard callus formation, and bone remodeling. (“Bone Remodeling and Repair” boundless.com) (“Bone remodeling during fracture repair: The cellular picture.” www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) The first phase of healing after the initial fracture is the hematoma formation
ETYMOLOGY OF ANDROGRAPHIS PANICULATA A. paniculata is a large genus of herbs found in the Indo-Malaya, Africa, Brazil and also the central of America Northward into Mexico (Alagesaboopathi, 2000). It is an annual plant which grows to the height of 1 – 3 ft. It is one of the most widespread plants used in the Unani and Ayurvedic traditional medicines. It is an erect and branched plant with lanceolate green leaves (Rammohan, 2009) 2.2. DISTRIBUTION OF ANDROGRAPHIS PLANT A. paniculata consists of 28
Bony callus formation 1.The fibrocartilaginous callus is converted into a bony (stronger and thicker) callus of spongy bone. 2.The osteoblasts continue to build up new bone, through the process of endochondral ossification. 3.As Time progresses, the bone will become stronger and more firmly joined at the previous sight of fracture. 4.The bony callus formation takes around two months from the beginning, with fibrocartilaginous callus to the end with the bony callus formed and the
- A fracture occurs when there is a break in a bone. It can usually be healed, so long as portions of the blood supply, periosteum, and endosteum are still intact. A fractured bone undergoes repair through a series of four steps. - The first step in bone fracture repair is the formation of a hematoma. When blood vessels within the bone tear, they hemorrhage. This results in the formation of a clot at the site of the break. Thus, a fracture hematoma is formed, stopping the flow of blood into the
All over the world, more than 80, 000 species of plants are used for medicinal use. Herbal drugs are derived either from whole plant or from different organs of the plants (Trivedi 2010). For instance, leaves, roots, stems, flowers, bark, seed, fruits, rhizomes, etc. Medicinal plants consist of whole extracts of the plant parts which contains abundance of active molecules. The total sales of the herbal products in the western countries were estimated to be around 1.6 billion US dollar (Aronson 2009)
