Rotator cuff

decreased in pain during the 50-foot walk test compared to the land-based exercises.7 So the article and the point I’m making is the water-based exercise is a great tool to use for people with osteoarthritis. The conclusion of both studies shows aquatic therapy helps people with osteoarthritis with keeping the patient active, strengthening their joints, pain relief, and helping them to not fatigue as quickly as land exercises or activities would do. The third diagnose or symptoms aquatic therapy

This is a 60-year-old male with a 4/16/2015 date of injury. A specific mechanism of injury has not been described. DIAGNOSIS: Impingement syndrome, right shoulder; full-thickness rotator cuff tear with retraction, right shoulder; adhesive capsulites, right shoulder; post-op pain, right shoulder; Right elbow strain/sprain; Right wrist strain/sprain; Right upper extremity overuse syndrome. 02/16/16 Progress Report noted that the pain is very severe in the right upper extremity at a 7-8/10-scale

impingement compresses the rotator cuff tendons in the supraspinatus outlet when the arm is elevated (McKinnis, 2014, p. 544). On the other hand, internal impingement is the compression of the posterior capsule and rotator cuff between the humeral head and glenoid when the arm is elevated and rotated (McKinnis, 2014, p. 544). The patient’s history and physical exam are diagnostic for impingement syndrome. To further define the corresponding soft tissue pathologies such as rotator cuff tears, labral tears

This paper is going to be over rotator cuff injuries and what to do if this occurs to an athlete. The rotator cuff consists of four muscles which are the Subscapularis, infraspinatus, teres minor, and the supraspinatus and their associated tendons that insert into the Humerus. These groups of muscles are responsible for rotating the arm internally and externally as well as abducting the shoulder. The acronym for the four muscles of the rotator cuff is known as SITS. The best treatment for symptomatic

movements and overuse, trauma, and degenerative changes. Shoulder pain and associated glenohumeral joint movement dysfunctions are common and debilitating conditions(5). The most frequently occurring problems include: shoulder impingement, rotator cuff-associated disorders, glenohumeral joint instability and adhesive capsulitis(5). Proper scapular motion and stability are considered to be crucial for the shoulder to function normally(6, 7). The scapular must serve as first, a stable base for

What does a gardener, an athlete and a carpenter all have in common? Easy, they all have a higher risk of acquiring tendinitis in their shoulders, more specifically rotator cuff tendonitis. Shoulders are a very important component to the body, as they allow you to move your arms in any direction you choose. Seeing that rotator cuff tendinitis is very frequently diagnosed, I was interested to learn more about it and what makes it so common. A shoulder is one of the most complex joints of the

it is important to know the anatomical location of the Suprascapular nerve in rotator cuff repairs. The article, “Anatomical Considerations of the Suprascapular Nerve in the Rotator Cuff Repairs” by James A. Tom, Addisu Mesfin, Mitesh P. Shah, Mirta Javandel, Dan J.Lee, Douglas L. Cerynik, and Nirav H Amin, is an article that presents how to determine a safe area around the suprascapular nerve when repairing a rotator cuff. The importance of this article is to understand

component of the shoulder while throwing is the rotator cuff. The rotator cuff is made up of four small muscles which are the subscapularis, supraspinatus, infraspinatus, and the teres minor. The main responsibility of the rotator cuff is for the stability of the shoulder joint. It holds the humeral head in the glenoid socket during early abduction while throwing. (" biomechanics of," ). Common injuries that occur while pitching are elbow tendonitis, rotator cuff tendonitis, labral tears, dead arm, ulnar

The patents were place in a sitting position with their arm laid on the thigh. Five different structure were treated 1.) supraspinatus musculo-tendinious junction at the humeral head, 2.) supraspinatus anterior, 3.) posterior teno-ossoeous junction of the greater tuberosity, 4.) supraspinatus teno-osseous junction in the muscle belly at the supraspinatus fossa, 5.) and the deltoid teno-osseous insertion at the deltoid tuberosity (Saylor-Pavkovich, E. (2016)). There findings showed that each participant

CONTROL treatment. Throughout phase one of her treatment , the patient remained primarily with pain control category, later as she progressed with decreased pain, increased ROM she was shifted to CONDITIONING EXERCIS with emphasis on strengthening of rotator cuff and scapular stabilisers. The second patient had severe restriction of movement and pain. On examining she was placed under MOBILISATION EXERCISES with emphasis to improve range of motion by manual therapy, soft tissue, capsular stretches and
