Answer: The partially dislocated radial head is documented as a <em>"Subluxation."</em>

Explanation:

Any type of partial dislocation is referred to as a subluxation. This can occur in a joint and even in an organ in the body. It is considered as structural displacement. A simple x-ray can diagnosis when a subluxation occurs. In the case listed above, it was in the shoulder. Symptoms of subluxation are visible swelling, pain in the area, unable to move the joint, and/or numbness and tingling. The subluxation may also be visible by a deformity in the shoulder area. Many times this can be fixed by using a splint, resting and using ice on the dislocated area, and elevating the arm. In some cases, surgery may be necessary, especially, if it occurs in the back.

Illustrate a brief distinction between accidents and risky behaviours
MrRa [10]
Hi !


The distinction between an accident and a risky behavior

An accident may be caused by something , someone else than you. You're not responsible for what happened. A car may have hurt you, you may have fallen and break your legs.....and you may be hurt by someone who has risky behaviours.

People having risky behaviours are aware of what they're doing. If something happen to them they are fully responsible.

Hope I helped !
