Study Notes
Spinal Pathologies - Differential Diagnosis (D/D) Table
-
Severity (Age) Correlations:
- Symptoms in individuals older than 50 often point towards Ankylosing Spondylitis, Central Stenosis, Osteoporosis, and Vertebral Body Instability (VBI).
- Ages 20-40 often present with Spondylosis, Disc Pathology.
- Younger patients frequently present with Spondylolysis, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) – vascular, and Scoliosis – structural.
- Females are more likely to exhibit Spondylolysis, Osteoporosis, and TOS.
- Thin, small frames frequently demonstrate Osteoporosis.
- Males are more susceptible to Ankylosing Spondylitis, Disc Pathology, and VBI.
- Smokers are at a higher risk for Osteoporosis, Disc Pathology and VBI. They may also possibly experience sprains, strains, or rib joint dysfunction. Increased incidence of facet joint and TOS pathology has also been observed in smokers.
- Caucasians and Asians often exhibit higher incidences of Osteoporosis.
-
Pain Descriptors and Associated Conditions:
- Dull, aching, stiff pain: Commonly associated with sprains, strains and facet joint dysfunction.
- Sharp, stabbing pain: More likely associated with rib joint dysfunction.
- Cramping: Suggests central stenosis.
- Weakness: May indicate central stenosis, disc pathology, and adverse neurodynamics or spondylolysis.
- Throbbing, achy pain: Could signal vascular TOS.
- Burning, sharp, electrical pain: Suggests possible TOS affecting nerve distribution
- Walking/standing pain: Spondylosis and central stenosis are potential causes.
- Sustained postural pain: Movements affecting posture could indicate sprains or strains
- Pain with specific movements (e.g., laughter, inhaling, exhaling): Could indicate rib joint dysfunction.
- Orthostatic hypertension: Points toward VBI.
- Vigorous exercise pain: VBI may be a possible cause
- Exercise alleviates pain: Ankylosing spondylitis is a possible diagnosis.
- Morning pain: Could be related to Ankylosing Spondylitis, strains, disc pathology, or TOS.
- Night pain: Disc pathology and TOS often involve night pain.
- Pain at start/end of day: Spondylosis is a possible reason.
- Pain affected by Movement/position: Several possible conditions: Spinal movement affectation could suggest spondylolysis. Forward head posture, increased kyphosis, and scoliosis are possible diagnoses.
- Muscle spasm and posture deviation: Strain
-
Diagnostic imaging and physical findings:
- Decreased ROM/AROM (Active ROM): Associated conditions include Ankylosing Spondylitis, Spondylosis, Sprains, strains, facet joint dysfunction, adverse neurodynamics, TOS.
- Decreased PROM (Passive ROM), ISOM (IsoMETRIC): Further suggests Ankylosing Spondylitis, Spondylosis, Strains, Facet joint dysfunction, adverse neurodynamics, and TOS.
- Hypomobile/ hypermobile PPIVMs/ PAIVMs: Indicates possible Ankylosing Spondylitis, Spondylosis, strain, facet joint dysfunction, and adverse neurodynamics issues in the spine.
- Reduced pain/ increase in pain with changes in movement positions: Could suggest Spondylolysis, in which pain increases with movement, but reduced with isometric exercises
- Gower's sign with AROM: Spondylosis is a possibility.
- Reduced pain with ISOM, increased with motion: Indicative of spondylolysis
- Painful, excessive, reduced PROM, hypomobile or hypermobile ISOM, hypermobile motion assessment: Sprains and facet joint dysfunction are likely
- Hypo/ hyper reflexive DTR (Deep Tendon Reflex): Potential for foraminal or central stenosis conditions.
- Abnormal spinal curve/ posture alignment: Possible scoliosis or structural issues.
- Diminished pulse: Possible indication of TOS
- Swelling, pallor/cyanosis, distended veins, atrophy: Possible TOS
-
Other factors affecting spinal pathologies:
- Radicular pain: Central stenosis, foraminal stenosis, and spondylosis are potential diagnoses.
-
Bilateral/ unilateral symptoms: Bilateral often points towards central stenosis issues, while unilateral could suggest disc pathology.
- Upper cervical instability in people with rheumatoid arthritis, hyperlidipemia, atherosclerosis, or sickle cell disease: Increased risk of VBI in these patients.
Hip Conditions - Differential Diagnosis (D/D) Table
-
Age Correlations:
- Younger patients: Apophysitis, osteitis pubis.
- Older patients: OA (Osteoarthritis)
-
Activity & Lifestyle:
- Ice sports, endurance athletes: osteitis pubis.
- Increased training load, high-impact activities: Stress fractures.
- Females and lean people: Stress fractures.
- Sedentary lifestyle: OA
-
Pain Descriptors and Associated Conditions:
- Dull, aching pain: Apophysitis
- Deep, aching pain: Stress fractures
- Achy, sharp pain: Possible OA
- Sharp, aching pain: Avulsion fracture
- Extremely tender on palpation: Avulsion fracture
- Coughing, sneezing, bearing down aggravates: Iliac crest contusion.
- Pain going from FLEX to EXT, EXT to FLEX, with EXT and rotation: Possible FAI (Femoroacetabular Impingement), sprain
- Pain equally limited with Flex and Extension: Possible stress fracture
- Morning pain: Associated with OA
- Night pain: Possible avulsion fracture or stress fracture or OA
-
Physical Findings:
- Crepitus: Iliac crest contusion, fracture, OA
- Clicking, grinding, catching, popping: Possible OA, labral tear.
- Instability: OA, FAI, labral tear.
- Localized pain: FAI
- Generalized pain around joint: OA
- Pain/weakness with hip add, trunk flexion, COD, single-leg stance: Osteitis pubis
- Pinching sensation with hip movement: FAI
- Tenderness at lower adductors, lower RA: Possible pathologies
- Bone to bone end feel: FAI
-
Additional Considerations:
- Apophysitis can be asymptomatic
- Symptoms can vary based on the specific hip condition
