- Mechanical forces pulling on the retina produce symptoms. The same forces that pull on the retina and cause symptoms exert force to further pull the retina off of the RPE. Traction may avulse flap, releasing traction and creating operculum. Subclinical retinal detachment can occur with flap tear or any other break. Subclinical detachment is defined as retinal detachment (or subretinal fluid) extending beyond 1DD from the edge of the break, but not progressing more than 2DD posterior to the equator. The presence of subretinal fluid is ominous.

- Fructification: the internal mass or contents separating into roundish or lenticular gonidia. The Whitby jet occurs in irregular masses, often of lenticular shape, embedded in hard shales known as jet-rock. The crystalline lens is a small body of a crystalline appearance and lenticular shape, whence its name. Popular Technology; Volume 2 Edward Hazen. When decomposed it is found also in round masses, either spherical or compressed and lenticular.

Pressure Ulcer: Chart The area may be preceded by tissue that is painful, firm, mushy, boggy, warmer or cooler as compared to adjacent tissue. Further description: Deep tissue injury may be difficult to detect in individuals with dark skin tones. Evolution may include a thin blister over a dark wound bed. The wound may further evolve and become covered by thin eschar. Evolution may be rapid exposing additional layers of tissue even with optimal treatment.  Stage I: Intact skin with non-blanchable redness of a localized area usually over a bony prominence. Darkly pigmented skin may not have visible blanching; its color may differ from the surrounding areas. Further description: The area may be painful, firm, soft, warmer or cooler as compared to adjacent tissue.

Epigastric hernia An epigastric hernia is a type of hernia which may develop in the epigastrium (upper, central part of the abdomen). Epigastric hernias usually appear in adults. Unlike the benign diastasis recti, epigastric hernia may trap fat and other tissues inside the opening of the hernia, causing pain and tissue damage.

Most heal without special treatment, but cold compresses may reduce bleeding if applied immediately after the injury, and thus may reduce swelling, discoloration, and pain.
