• IMPACTED CERUMEN - Ear wax, also called cerumen, is made by the body
to protect the ears. The ear wax has both lubricating and antibacterial
properties. Most of the time, the old ear wax is moved through the ear
canal by motions from chewing and other jaw movements and as the skin
of the ear canal grows from the inside out. At that time, it reaches the
outside of the ear and flakes off. Ear wax is produced in the outer part of
the ear canal, not deep inside the ear.
• SWIMMER’S EAR- Otitis externa, also known as swimmer's ear, is an
inflammation of the ear canal. It often presents with ear pain, swelling of
the ear canal, and occasionally decreased hearing. Typically there is pain
with movement of the outer ear. A high fever is typically not present
except in severe cases.
• OTITIS MEDIA- is a group of inflammatory diseases of the middle ear. The
two main types are acute otitis media (AOM) and otitis media with
effusion (OME). AOM is an infection of abrupt onset that usually presents
with ear pain. In young children this may result in pulling at the ear,
increased crying, and poor sleep. Decreased eating and a fever may also
be present. OME is typically not associated with symptoms. Occasionally a
feeling of fullness is described. It is defined as the presence of non-
infectious fluid in the middle ear for more than three months.

• BLURRED VISION- refers to eye movement control and eye
coordination. Something that is hazy and indistinct to the sight.
• ASTIGMATISM- is a type of refractive error in which the eye does not
focus light evenly on the retina. This results in distorted or blurred
at all distances.
• MYOPIA - Near-sightedness, also known as short-sightedness and
myopia, is a condition of the eye where light focuses in front of, instead
of on, the retina. This causes distant objects to be blurry while close
objects appear normal.
• HYPEROPIA- Far-sightedness, also known as long-sightedness and
hyperopia, is a condition of the eye in which light is focused behind,
instead of on, the retina. This causes close objects to be blurry, while
objects may appear normal.
• XEROPHTHALMIA- is a medical condition in which the eye fails to
produce tears. It may be caused by vitamin A deficiency, which is
sometimes used to describe that condition, although there may be
causes.
• STRABISMUS- also called crossed eyes is a condition in which the eyes
do not properly align with each other when looking at an object.

•SUNBURN- is a form of radiation burn
that affects living tissue, such as skin,
results from an overexposure to
(UV) radiation, commonly from the sun.
•CORNS- an in growing callus often on
the foot
•BLISTERS- is a small pocket of body
fluid (lymph, serum, plasma, blood, or
within the upper layers of the skin,
caused by forceful rubbing (friction),

•SCOLIOSIS - is a medical condition in which a
person's spine has a sideways curve.
•LORDOSIS- refers to the normal inward lordotic
curvature of the lumbar and cervical regions of
the human spine
•KYPHOSIS- is an abnormally excessive convex
kyphotic curvature of the spine as it occurs in
the cervical, thoracic and sacral regions.

10. N. Mallen
• CAVITIES- are damage to the structure of a tooth.
• GINGIVITIS- "inflammation of the gum tissue") is a
non-destructive disease that occurs around the teeth.
• PERIODONTITIS- also known as gum disease and
pyorrhea, is a set of inflammatory diseases affecting
the tissues surrounding the teeth.
• MALOCCLUSION-is a misalignment or incorrect
relation between the teeth of the two dental arches
when they approach each other as the jaws close.
• HALITOSIS- also known as bad breath is a symptom in
which a noticeably unpleasant odor is present on the
breath.
