*Sudden
*Varying severity
*Acute injuries:
**Sprains
***Minor - resolved without any consequences
***More severe may result in persistent capsular and ligament laxity -> degenerative arthrosis -> impaired function
**Subluxations
**Luxations
**Intra-articular fractures
***[[Bones Fractures - Pathology#Fracture repair|Fracture healing]] may cause discontinuity of the articular surfaces
**Puncture wounds to foot may allow infection to travel to [[Joints Inflammatory - Pathology|joints]], bursae and tendon sheaths
**Haemorrhage into joint
***May occur in animals with clotting defects without special trauma
****Usually polyaricular
****Recurrent
****May cause pitting of articular surfaces -> degenerative arthrosis
