Musculoskeletal Disorder
For any student, a chance to apply the taught theory in the actual clinical setting is looked forward to. Same case applied to my classmates and I as we were eagerly waiting for our placement. After tedious classroom sessions, it seemed like a great idea to break the classroom monotony. With it, a chance to practice on real patients. A break from the norm of managing mannequins in the skills laboratory back at school. Armed with theoretical knowledge ready to dispense our hard-earned wisdom, we took the placements with mastery and courage hardly exhibited. With the aid of our mentors, we learned loads under their supervision over the period which we were placed.

The defunct allotment had been nothing short of informative. Given a chance to manage any patient of our choice, workplace injuries caught my attention. The category of my choice, musculoskeletal disorders. These did elucidate for quite some disclosed injuries related to stress to either one body part or another. Having a population with the right mindsets and knowledgeable healthcare professionals will aid in eradicating this ailment (Leino-Arjas et al., 2018). This reflective paper focuses on a client who presented to the emergency department with signs and symptoms similar to a standard musculoskeletal condition.

With no history of past admissions, I took my time to assess the client carefully. For my data would later prove crucial as a reference point in making future clinical interventions and selecting the right therapeutic response for the client. Documentation of the findings played a key role as it evidenced that the focused musculoskeletal health assessment was done.
Being sure of the diagnosis, Mr. Norman Rodgers’ therapeutic intervention was strictly aimed at alleviating the pain, better any anatomical ruination to Mr. Norman Rodgers’ spine and return him to his normal state as soon as medically possible. Different measures were explained to his after administration of painkillers, Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) were administered in an attempt to second-string the back pain (the doctor prescribed P.O. Motrin 400mg BD for five days) (Robertson et A., 2015). He was advised to embrace the use of ice massages. Applying ice to reduce pain as soon as the pain actualizes does provide some relief.

Despite all, it was a wonderful experience. Having learned the management of musculoskeletal conditions, I could confidently attest to the fact that Mr. Norman Rodger received the best medical treatment. With strict adherence to the discussed issues, he will not report back to the hospital with the same complaint any day soon.
