Our musculoskeletal system is made up of 206 bones, 640 muscles, over 200 joints, more than 4,000 tendons, approximately 160 bursae, 900 ligaments and bones form the skeletal framework of our body. Our muscles help our bones to make activities. The fluid sacs between the muscles and bones that form in areas of friction called bursae in our body help facilitate the various movements at the joints, minimizing friction and the tendons help transmit the force generated from the muscles to the bones during movements. The fibrous bands of tissue connecting the bones known as ligaments seal the joint space and provide passive stability. This whole system gives stability and movement to the human body.
