Paracetamol poisoning can cause gastroenteritis within a few hours and liver damage within 1-3 days after ingestion. The severity of liver damage after a single acute overdose can be predicted by the plasma paracetamol concentration.
Medial epicondylitis (golfer's elbow) is an inflammation of the flexor and pronator muscles that originate from the medial epicondyle of the humerus; it is much less common than lateral epicondylitis.
Lateral epicondylitis develops as a result of inflammation or micro-rupture of the tendons of the extensor muscles of the forearm attached to the lateral epicondyle of the distal humerus.
Usually, a rupture of the joint capsule occurs as a result of a specific injury, such as a fall on an outstretched arm. It causes pain when moving. Treatment is physical therapy and, in some cases, surgical methods.
