Volkmann's contracture
Subluxation
Compartment syndrome

Subluxation

Explanation:

Subluxation refers to a partial or incomplete dislocation of a particular joint.

Volkmann's contracture is a deformity of the hands and wrist as a result of muscle injury at the forearm. This deformity is usually permanent.

Compartment syndrome is by constriction as a result of increase in internal bleeding or the swelling of structure like nerves or tendons. It can lead to palsy.

Sprain is the stretching or injury of ligaments that surrounds a joint.
