Musculoskeletal disorders 

Necrotizing fasciitis is a rapidly progressive, life-threatening soft tissue infection characterized by extensive necrosis of the deep fascia, subcutaneous tissues, and surrounding soft tissues, with secondary involvement of the skin and underlying muscles.

Low back pain is a common presenting complaint especially among the elderly. It may be a mild, transient symptom or chronic and disabling complaint.

Inflammatory musculoskeletal conditions comprise a diverse group of disorders characterized by inflammation affecting joints, peri-articular structures, muscles, tendons, ligaments, bursae, fascia, and connective tissues. These conditions may result from autoimmune disease, crystal deposition, infection, trauma, metabolic disorders, or reactive inflammatory processes.

Septic arthritis is an acute infection of the synovial membrane and joint space characterized by purulent inflammation within a synovial joint. It is most commonly caused by bacterial pathogens, although fungi and mycobacteria may also be responsible, particularly in immunocompromised individuals.

Musculoskeletal tumours are abnormal growths arising from bone, cartilage, skeletal muscle, fat, fibrous tissue, blood vessels, or peripheral nerves. They may be benign or malignant, with malignant tumours classified as primary bone or soft tissue sarcomas or secondary (metastatic) tumours. Metastatic bone disease is far more common than primary bone malignancy, with the most frequent primary cancers originating from the breast, prostate, lung, kidney, and thyroid.
