Shoulder

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 body. The anatomy of the shoulder starts where the humerus fits into the scapula almost

The Deltoid Muscle The deltoid muscle is in the shoulder area, towards the proximal end of the arm. The muscle itself is rounded and triangular in shape, and consists of three main “heads” or muscles fibre strands; the lateral, anterior, and posterior deltoids. It is used for arm extension in all angles and rotation, mainly up and down straight out to the side. The deltoid has three main functions that involve the three individual muscle “strands”. The the anterior deltoid rotates the humerus anteriorly

the activities of daily living that we have all grown accustomed to. In order to execute these motions, however, the shoulder joint needs a stable base of support. This is one of the primary roles of the scapula and its surrounding musculature. When the GH joint is injured, however, scapular muscle-activation, and therefore stability and function, is theoretically altered. Many shoulder rehabilitation programs focus on restoring proper coordination of these muscles, especially those involved with scapular

There is a gap existing in literature which has failed to provide sufficient, high quality evidence favouring one treatment intervention over other in treating subjects with shoulder dysfunction conservatively. The variance that exists among clinicans regarding treatment

Question 1 Needs Grading LOCATION: Outpatient, Hospital PATIENT:    Glory Ann Borden SURGEON:  Mohomad Almaz, MD DIAGNOSIS:Right carpal tunnel syndrome PROCEDURE PERFORMED:Right carpal tunnel release PROCEDURE: The patient was placed in the supine position on the operating room table, where her right hand and forearm were prepped with Betadine and draped in a sterile fashion. We infiltrated the thenar crease area with 1% Xylocaine, and once adequate anesthesia had been achieved, we exsanguinated

In the next few pages the joints and the muscular involvement of the shoulder, elbow, and wrist during bow shooting will be discussed in depth. As mentioned in the previous paragraph, the involvement of the upper extremity will be discussed in detail as it relates to its function in the action of shooting a bow. The shoulder plays a huge role in drawing the bow and keeping the string pulled back. The joints of the shoulder are vital when performing these actions. The joints involved include:

Assignment title: Functional Anatomy Individual Assignment 2 exercise movement with diagrams and full anatomy Introduction The shoulder joint is also know as the glenohumeral joint is a “ball and socket” between the head of the humerus and the glenoid cavity of the scapula bone(shoulder blade). The six main movements of the shoulders are: flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, internal rotation and external rotation. Flexion is when the upper arm is elevated forward toward the

The game of baseball is a sport that seems easier to the viewer who is watching opposed to those who play it. Being a baseball player commons with a lot of physical demands such as building core and upper body strength. Throughout the ages of three when they start play to 15 are the years kids are throwing a baseball frequent without being taught how to throw correctly if not taught by coaches. Kids tend to have awkward throwing motions even to their adult years most commonly a side arm release

conditions and treatment of adhesive Capsulitis (Frozen Shoulder) with an emphasis on current physical activity and exercise as a treatment strategy. Pathophysiology Adhesive Capsulitis (AC) commonly known as Frozen shoulder (FS), is a condition characterised by stiffness and pain in the glenohumeral joint (GH), with limitations to both active and passive range of motion in all directions. It can arise from an injury or trauma to the shoulder and chest area or spontaneously without any obvious preceding
