Question #3

procedure?

are potential complications for this patient in the future
(describe each)?

Question #4
 A 10-year old male patient is seen in the emergency room.
The patient accidently fell and straddled his bike and since
the time of the accident he has had pain and swelling of his

associated with each?
Question #5
