1. Name three muscles or muscle groups used as sites for intramuscular injections,
2. Mr Billy Bob was advised by his physician to lose weight and start jogging. On the sixth day, he was forced to
jump out of the way of a speeding car. He heard a snapping sound that was immediately followed by pain in high
right lower calf. A gap was visible between his swollen calf and his heel, and he was unable to plantar flex that
foot. What do you think happened?
3. While painting her house, Molly Mae fell off the ladder and fractured her right clavicle. Treatment prescribed
by the emergency room physician included using a sling for her right arm to immobilize the clavicle and speed
its healing. What muscles are temporarily “out of business” by the sling?
4. Mr Mikey Mike has had colon surgery. Now he is experiencing weakness of the muscles on his right side only,
the side in which the incision was made through the abdominal musculature, Consequently, the abdominal
muscles on his left side contract more strongly, throwing his torso into a lateral flexion. Mr Mike needs physical
therapy. What abnormal spinal curvature will result if he doesn't get it, and why?

2. Which group is incorrect?
