Study Notes
Adhesive Capsulitis
- Occurs more in middle-aged females
- Arthrogram detects decreased fluid volume
- Restricted range of motion, capsule pattern
Ankle Sprain - Lateral - Grade II
- Caused by significant inversion
- Primarily affects anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL)
- Pain/tenderness on lateral ankle
- Full recovery expected within a few weeks
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Sprain - Grade III
- Common during hyperflexion/rapid deceleration
- More common in females involved in athletic activities
- Approximately two-thirds of complete tears involve meniscus
Bicipital Tendonitis
- Higher incidence in athletes (baseball, tennis, etc.)
- Deep ache in front of shoulder, worsening with activity
- Positive Speed's or Yergason's test
Lateral Epicondylitis
- Inflammation/degeneration at common extensor tendon
- Repeated wrist extension overuse
- Microscopic tearing of extensor tendons
- Difficulty holding/gripping objects
Medial Collateral Ligament Sprain - Grade II
- Partial tear of ligament
- Typically from blow to the outside of the knee
- Decreased functional level until structures heal
Osteoarthritis
- Primarily affects joints
- More common in older women
- Diagnosed based on symptoms, x-rays (evidence of degeneration)
Patellofemoral Syndrome
- Damage to the articular cartilage
- Unknown cause, possibly activity-related
- Pain management involves controlling activity level
Plantar Fasciitis
- Chronic condition caused by excessive pronation during initial phase of walking
- Severe heel pain
- Treatment involves ice, massage, stretching
Rotator Cuff Tear
- Resulting from acute trauma
- Diagnosed with drop arm or empty can tests
- Requires treatment focusing on adequate management, and potential adhesive capsulitis
