This chapter on the musculoskeletal system aims to give an overview of the evolutionary implications for health and diseases of this body system. Using specific examples, the chapter shows how musculoskeletal diseases develop from an evolutionary point of view, with a specific emphasis on mismatches between the evolved human body and the modern ...

Many of the injuries seen in the office setting are acute in nature. Generally, they are the common sprains, strains, fractures, and dislocations of various joints and soft tissues. Most are injuries of movement, and so the dynamics of the injury (biomechanics) become an important part of the history-taking.

In most of the objective structured clinical examinations (OSCE), there must be at least one and usually two stations from the musculoskeletal system. It can be either a brief history taking with focused physical examination station or a detailed physical examination station. It can be related to any joint.

Publisher Summary Musculoskeletal diseases that are triggered by exposures to xenobiotics include connective tissue and bone moieties. These effects are generally observed after long-term exposures to toxic chemicals, including heavy metals and organic solvents. It is to be noted that only a relatively few studies in this area have been carried out as
