    Assignment Questions

    • Complete charts with thorough explanations, using bullet points.
    • Bone pathology chart, including primary etiology, major symptoms, and massage considerations
    • Developmental disorders chart (2 parts), including primary etiology, major symptoms, and massage considerations
    • Metabolic diseases chart, including primary etiology, major symptoms, and massage considerations.

    Bone Pathology

    • Pathology: Osteonecrosis
    • Primary Etiology: Interruption of blood supply to marrow
      • Trauma or fractures
      • Thrombosis, embolism
      • Sickle cell disease
      • Idiopathic
      • Administration of corticosteroids
    • Major Symptoms: Bone death, pain even at rest, limited mobility
    • Massage Considerations: Treat after medical interventions, like surgery. Avoid treating until cleared by doctors. Treat associated pathologies. Consider immobilized areas and any surrounding structures.

    Developmental Disorders (Part 1)

    • Pathology: Legge-Calve-Perthe
    • Primary Etiology: Unknown cause, possibly trauma or malnutrition. Affects the femoral head.
    • Major Symptoms: Pain in thigh and knee, difficulty walking (limping), limited abduction, internal rotation, effects on growth pattern
    • Massage Considerations: Focus on compensatory symptoms like posture.

    Developmental Disorders (Part 2)

    • Pathology: Osgood-Schlatter
    • Primary Etiology: Overuse during development, straining patellar tendons. Predominantly in white males aged 3-12.
    • Major Symptoms: Enlarged tibial tuberosity, pain in front of knee during activity. Pain during activity and swelling/thickening of patellar tendon.
    • Massage Considerations: Focus on decreasing quad tone. Avoid treating inflammation at the tibial tuberosity.

    Metabolic Diseases

    • Pathology: Osteopenia, Osteoporosis
    • Primary Etiology: Can be due to another pathology (like osteoporosis), anorexia, high acidity in the blood eroding bones, imbalance between bone resorption formation , aging and mineral/vitamin D deficiency
    • Major Symptoms: Decrease in bone mass, bone deformation, inadequate remineralization, deossification, susceptability to fractures, vertebral collapse, dowager's hump. Often asymptomatic until fracture.
    • Massage Considerations: Treat underlying pathologies, physical therapy to increase bone density. Weight bearing exercises.

    Additional Information

    • The assignment requires details for each pathology, etiology, symptoms and massage considerations.
    • The assignment has multiple charts requiring detailed information
    • The 3 chart types are: Bone Pathology, Developmental Disorders (two parts) and Metabolic Diseases.
