@BrownJHM @grepmeded Landolfi’s sign, this finding may be seen in patients with severe aortic regurgitation and is a manifestation of wide pulse pressure and large stroke volume in the iridial vessels, which causes systolic constriction and diastolic dilation of the pupils.

@caffeinatedmd Forearm fractures have three common causes that make up the bulk of the cases we see.
•Direct blows to the forearm
•A fall on an outstretched arm, usually while playing sports or falling from a height
•Motorcycle or motor vehicle accidents

Assalamu alaikum my Muslim brothers and sisters

These days could be separate and any time during Shawwal.
