Skin
The largest organ in your body, the skin has 3 layers and covers 20 square feet. It protects your body from outside elements, helps control body temperature, and allows you to feel sensations. You might not think of skin when you think of movement, but scar tissue can prevent you from bending a joint, and a long period of time lying in bed without moving can result in painful sores.
Skin Conditions:
Pressure Ulcer (Bed Sore)
