My husband had total knee replacement on April 27th and came home on the April 30th. He has been doing his PT and walking around the block and started having muscle spasms in the knee area about 4 days ago and it is so painful because it pulls his knee completely back.
Medical Definition of IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) IBD (inflammatory bowel disease): A group of chronic intestinal diseases characterized by inflammation of the bowel -- the large or small intestine. The most common types of inflammatory bowel disease are ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Crohn's disease favors the ileum (the lower part of the small intestine) but can occur anywhere along the intestinal tract while, by contrast, ulcerative colitis affects the colon (the large intestine) alone.
ibid. and id. The abbreviation ibid. stands for the Latin word ibidem, which means âin the same place.â It is used in endnotes or footnotes when you cite the same source and page number(s) two or more times. If you cite the same source but a different page number, you can use ibid.followed by a comma and the page number(s).he abbreviation i.e. stands for id est, which translates literally as âthat is.â Sometimes it might be more useful, however, to translate it as âwhat that means isâ or âthat is to say.â This abbreviation is used to clarify the preceding idea by restating it more simply or in different terms.
