  • Dislocation:

    • Etymology: The word "dislocation" comes from the Latin roots "dis-" meaning "apart" or "away," and "locare" meaning "to place." The combination implies a displacement or separation.

    • Definition: According to Google, dislocation refers to the displacement of a bone from its normal position in a joint.

    • Subluxation:

      • Etymology: "Subluxation" originates from the Latin "sub-" meaning "under" or "below" and "luxatio" meaning "a dislocation." Together, it signifies a partial or incomplete dislocation.

      • Definition: Google defines subluxation as a partial dislocation of a joint, where the articulating surfaces are still partially in contact.

      • Luxation:

        • Etymology: The term "luxation" comes from the Latin "luxatio," meaning "a dislocation" or "displacement."

        • Definition: Luxation is a synonym for dislocation, referring to the complete displacement of a bone from its joint.

        • Reduction:

          • Etymology: The word "reduction" has Latin roots; "re-" means "back" or "again," and "ducere" means "to lead" or "to bring." In the context of dislocations, reduction means bringing the displaced bones back to their normal position.

          • Definition: According to Google, reduction is the restoration of a dislocated or fractured body part to its normal position.

          • Articulation:

            • Etymology: "Articulation" comes from the Latin "articulatio," derived from "articulus" meaning "a joint" or "a small part."

            • Definition: In the medical context, articulation refers to the connection between bones, especially at a joint.

            • Capsule:

              • Etymology: The term "capsule" has Latin origins, from "capsula," meaning "a small box" or "container."

              • Definition: Google defines a capsule as a membranous structure enveloping a body part, such as a joint capsule surrounding a joint.

              • Labrum:

                • Etymology: "Labrum" comes from the Latin word for "lip."

                • Definition: In the medical context, a labrum refers to a lip-like edge, often used to describe the cartilaginous rim around the edge of a joint socket.

                • Meniscus:

                  • Etymology: The term "meniscus" has Greek roots; "meniskos" means "crescent" or "little moon."

                  • Definition: Google defines a meniscus as a crescent-shaped fibrocartilaginous structure in certain joints, especially the knee.

                  • Sprain:

                    • Etymology: "Sprain" has uncertain origins but might be related to the Middle English word "spreyne," meaning to cause a sudden jerk or twist.

                    • Definition: According to Google, a sprain is the stretching or tearing of ligaments, often caused by a sudden twist or wrench.
