The majority of the lipids contained in our diet and retained in our bodies are triglycerides, esters made of one glycerol (an alcohol) molecule and three fatty acid molecules (carboxylic acids).

The ester of glycerol and three fatty acids is known as a triglyceride. In humans, other vertebrates, and vegetable fat, triglycerides make up the majority of the body fat. Obesity and the metabolic syndrome, a group of diseases marked by excess body fat around the waist, high blood pressure, high triglycerides, high blood sugar, and abnormal cholesterol levels, are two conditions that frequently accompany high triglycerides and increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. A blood supply blockage to your heart or brain could result from extremely high triglyceride levels. Chest pain may be one of the signs of a heart that is receiving less blood. Numbness, vertigo, disorientation, blurred vision, or a severe headache all be signs of a reduced blood supply to your brain. A particular health risk is quite curable.

KIM [24]
This is called bursitis specifically olecranon bursitis. Olecranon bursa in the elbow is a thin fluid filled sac at the tip of the elbow. The bursa fills with fluid which can lead into inflammation on the surrounding area of the elbow resulting in pain and limitations of movement. Complications can happen if medical attention is not given. This includes bleeding, bruising, infectins, necrotizing fasciitis can also happen. Patient must undergo work up such as plain x rays, bone scintigraphy or if needed MRI/CT scan. Surgical interventions are usually needed because non surgical means are usually non effective. Long term monitoring is a must and patient must be advised on prevention practices.
