3
The Human Skeleton Purpose: Support & protection Lever
Point of attachment Blood cell production
4
Joint An area where two bones meet Allows for movement
5

Malfunctions Malfunction Location Cause Symptoms Cure Tendonitis Elbow
Less likely in hip or torso Swelling of tendon - Aches, pains, stiffness Stop usage Anti-inflammatories Braces Sprain - Ankle, knee, wrist, fingers, toes Overextension of ligaments - Pain, swelling, bruising - Rest, ice, compression, elevation
