Septic arthritis is an infection and inflammation of the joint and is mainly caused by bacteria, fungi, mycobacterial, viral and other pathogens.
This infection mainly travels from another part of the body through the blood stream and creates an infection in the joint.
Septic arthritis It occurs when germs travel into a joint through a penetrating injury, creating an infection.
Septic arthritis primarily affects the knee, but septic arthritis can also involve the hip, shoulder, and other joints.
Septic arthritis is primarily monoarticular, meaning it primarily involves one large joint, such as the hip or knee.

Define Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Rheumatoid Arthritis is a chronic, systemic, autoimmune connective tissue disorder that causes inflammation of the tissues surrounding the joints, including the synovial membrane, and destruction and proliferation of synovial members, resulting in joint destruction, ankylosis (stiffness of the joint) and deformity (physical deformity).
In autoimmune disease, the body’s immune system produces antibodies against normal cells and damages normal cells. This is called autoimmune disease. Joint pain, stiffness, and immobility occur.
Rheumatoid arthritis also affects other organs of the body, including the skin, eyes, lungs, and blood vessels.
Explain Etiology of Rheumatoid Arthritis (Causes of Rheumatoid Arthritis):
Rheumatoid The exact cause of arthritis is unknown.
Due to genetic factors (if a parent has this disease, there is a possibility of it in their child),

1) Synovitis,
2) Pannus formation (Panus formation),
3) Fibrous tissues Ankylosis,
4) Bony Ankylosis.
1) Synovitis:
In the synovitis stage, when there is an infection in the body, that infection affects the synovial membrane of the joint and due to this, the synovial members become infected and inflamed and due to this, synovitis occurs and synovial fluid increases.
2) Pannus formation:
In this, the synovial fluid gets invaded and becomes very thick and this fluid increases around the capsule of the joint.
3) Fibrous tissues Ankylosis:
In this, the synovial fluid increases a lot and it becomes stiff and it gets stuck around the joint and forms a hard structure.
4)Bony Ankylosis (Bony Ankylosis):
In this, the fibrous tissue forms a very hard structure and forms a bone-like formation and due to this the joint becomes immobilized And stiffness occurs in it.
Due to any etiological factor. | \/ Infection of synovial membrane occurs. | \/ Inflammation of synovial members occurs. | \/ Synovial fluid is secreted from synovial members. | \/ This fluid progresses and accumulates in the bone.
| \/
Then the bone becomes very hard and stiff Which is an immobilized bone. | \/ Rheumatoid arthritis .

In this, the finger deviates towards the ulnar surface.
In this, the joint is surgically fused to stabilize the joint.
2) Synovectomy:
In this, the joint lining is removed is removed.
This is mainly used to remove the inflamed tissues that are creating pain.
Synovectomy is mainly used to reduce swelling and slow down joint damage.
3) Tendon repairs:
The surgeon repairs the tendons around the joint that are inflamed and damaged, causing loss of tendons. and keeps it stable.

1) Explain the spinal cord tumor.
Spinal cord tumors are abnormal growths of tissues.
And they are mainly found near the spinal cord because the spinal cord is a rigid, bony structure and abnormal growth causes a sensation of pressure and impairs the function of the spinal cord.
Spinal cord tumors are mainly found inside the spinal cord and adjacent to it.
A spinal cord tumor is a cancerous growth found within the spinal cord and can be either benign or malignant.
If the tumor is causing compression of the spinal cord or nerve roots, immediate medical attention is required because compression of the nerves can lead to paralysis. Even if the tumor is benign, it can still affect the nerves.
A spinal cord tumor usually originates from another part of the body and metastasizes and transfers to the spinal cord.
type of spinal cord tumor.
1)primary spinal cord tumor:=
A tumor that arises from the spinal cord is called a primary spinal tumor.
Only 10% of primary spinal cord tumors arise from the spinal cord.
2)secondary spinal cord tumor:=
Secondary spinal cord tumor is a tumor in another part of the body that becomes metastatic to the spinal cord.
Tumors in the breast, lungs, prostate, thyroid gland spread to the vertebrae, i.e., metastasis occurs.
Metastatic tumors mainly compress the spinal cord and nerve roots.
Lymphomas also spread to the spinal cord and compress the spinal cord

Keep the limb covered with the prosthesis at all times. Keep it and apply sunscreen if exposed to the sun.
If there is any problem with the prosthesis, inform the prosthetist immediately.
If there is a red spot on the prosthesis, there is a chance of soreness on that area, so avoid the prosthesis and inform the prosthetist immediately.
If there is no sensation on the limb where the prosthesis is, assess it frequently and do not expose it to hot water and sun exposure as it can cause burns and blisters.
Proper care should be taken of the skin with the prosthesis.
