Bicipital tendonitis & Rehabilitation
Bicipital tendonitis is inflammation of long head of the biceps tendon under the bicipital groove.
In early stage, tendon becomes red and swollen, as tendonitis develops the tendon sheath can thicken.
In late stage, often become dark red in color due to inflammation.
Bicep tendonitis
Bicep tendonitis causes pain in the front of the shoulder that worsens with arm movement, especially when reaching over the shoulder or extending the arm. Touching the front of the shoulder can also cause pain. The pain is exacerbated at night or in the morning. Prevention involves warming up, stretching, and gradually increasing exercise intensity while stopping at the first sign of discomfort. Treatments include ice, anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroid injections, and physical therapy exercises. Recovery time depends on the individual and pursuing treatment early can aid a faster recovery.

Tennis elbow (Rpitative injury of lateral epicondyle)
Lateral epicondylitis, also known as tennis elbow, is an overuse injury causing pain at the outside of the elbow. It results from repetitive microtrauma to the tendons that connect the forearm muscles to the lateral epicondyle. The pathology involves tendon breakdown and inflammation. Risk factors include repetitive arm motions from activities like tennis, manual labor, or keyboard use. Patients experience pain at the lateral elbow that is worsened by gripping or lifting. Examination finds tenderness over the lateral epicondyle and positive Cozen's, Mill's, and Maudsely's tests. Treatment involves rest, bracing, exercises and other conservative measures, with corticosteroid injection or surgery as potential options
Ankle Sprains
An ankle sprain is a common injury caused by trauma to the ankle ligaments from excessive inversion or eversion. It can range from mild stretching to complete tears. Incidence is highest among athletes. Symptoms include pain, swelling, bruising and difficulty walking. Assessment involves examining range of motion, stability tests like the anterior drawer test, and imaging to rule out fractures. Treatment depends on severity but may include RICE, bracing and physical therapy.
Ostomalacia Patella
Runner's knee, also known as chondromalacia patellae, is a softening and deterioration of the cartilage underneath the kneecap. It often occurs in young athletes and is caused by repetitive stress on the knees from high-impact activities like running or jumping. Symptoms include a dull ache around or behind the kneecap that increases with activities like walking up stairs. Treatment focuses on reducing pain and pressure on the kneecap through rest, bracing, anti-inflammatory medications, and exercises to strengthen the thigh muscles. Surgery may be considered in more severe cases that do not improve with conservative treatment.
Lateral epicondylitis
Lateral epicondylitis, commonly known as tennis elbow, is a painful condition caused by overuse and microtears of the tendons that connect the forearm muscles to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus. The condition results in pain at the outside of the elbow. Conservative treatments include activity modification, bracing, stretching, strengthening exercises, and shock wave therapy. Surgical intervention is considered if conservative treatments fail to provide relief after 6 months.
Tennis elbow & Golfer's elbow
Tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis, is a painful condition affecting the tendinous tissue originating from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus. It commonly results from repetitive wrist extension and forearm pronation motions as seen in tennis players. Physical examination reveals tenderness over the lateral epicondyle with resisted wrist extension. Initial treatment involves rest, ice, NSAIDs, bracing, and physical therapy. Surgical release of the affected tendon is considered if non-operative treatment fails after 6-12 months.
Knee Presentation
This document provides an overview of the anatomy and common injuries of the knee joint. It describes the bones, ligaments, menisci, vasculature and nerves of the knee. Common injuries discussed include patellar dislocation, meniscal tears, injuries to the medial collateral ligament, lateral collateral ligament, anterior cruciate ligament, and posterior cruciate ligament. Diagnosis and treatment approaches for each type of injury are summarized. The document concludes with an overview of ligament reconstruction procedures and potential future advances.
Iliotibial Band Syndrome (Itbs)
Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS) is an overuse injury of the iliotibial band, a thick fascia that runs down the outside of the thigh. ITBS is caused by training errors like increasing mileage too quickly, running on uneven surfaces, or having poor form. Anatomical factors like tight muscles or leg length differences can also contribute. Diagnosis involves pain tests like the Renne Test or Noble Compression Test. Treatment starts with rest, ice, stretching, and anti-inflammatories. Later stages may include corticosteroid injections, surgery for refractory cases. Prevention focuses on gradual mileage increases, proper footwear, stretching, and avoiding uneven terrain.
5 ways to prevent tennis elbow
Tennis elbow very often affects people between the ages of 35 and 65. It is very common among people who play tennis, racquetball, badminton, squash, fencing and weight lifting. It also affects people with jobs or hobbies requiring repetitive movements like carpentry, using plumbing tools, typing, painting, raking and knitting. It mostly affects the dominant arm.
5. knee injuries
This document discusses common knee injuries, including acute injuries like ACL tears, meniscal tears, and patellar dislocations, as well as overuse injuries. It provides details on mechanisms of injury, symptoms, physical exam findings, imaging, treatment including RICE protocol and possible surgery, and prognosis. Knee injuries are common due to the knee's role in weight bearing and lack of bony and muscular support, making it prone to ligament tears and cartilage damage from sudden movements or repetitive stress.
Ankle instability
This document discusses ankle instability and chronic ankle sprains. It begins by describing the anatomy of the ankle joint and its ligaments. It then explains that ankle sprains are common injuries, often caused by an inversion mechanism. Chronic ankle instability can develop after repeated sprains and is characterized by recurrent sprains, pain, and a feeling of the ankle giving way. Treatment of ankle sprains focuses on RICE initially, followed by bracing and physical therapy to improve strength, range of motion and proprioception. Surgery is rarely needed except for severe, unresolving cases.
Snapping hip syndrome
Snapping hip syndrome is a condition characterized by a snapping sensation in the hip joint caused by tendons or muscles rubbing against the pelvic bone. It most commonly affects young athletes and women engaged in repetitive twisting motions. The three main types are iliotibial band snap, iliopsoas tendon snap, and hip labral tear. Treatment focuses on stretching muscles, strengthening hips, anti-inflammatory medications, and surgery as a last resort.
chondromalacia patellae
Chondromalacia patellae, also known as runner's knee, is a softening and roughening of the cartilage under the kneecap caused by mechanical overload of the patellofemoral joint. Symptoms include pain in front of or beneath the kneecap that is aggravated by activity like climbing stairs. Examination may reveal tenderness under the kneecap edge or crepitus with knee movement. Conservative treatments include rest, ice, strengthening exercises, and anti-inflammatory medication. Surgery to realign or elevate the patella may be considered if conservative treatments fail after 6 months.
GOLFERS ELBOW AND PHYSIOTHERAPY MANAGEMENT
Golfer's elbow, also known as medial epicondylitis, is an overuse injury causing pain on the inner side of the elbow where forearm muscles attach. It results from repetitive motions like swinging a golf club or racket. Physiotherapy treatments include ultrasound, laser therapy, stretching and strengthening exercises to reduce pain and inflammation, improve range of motion and muscle strength, and prevent reinjury. Conservative treatments are usually tried first before considering corticosteroid injections or surgery. Proper form, rest, stretching, strengthening, and equipment choices can help prevent golfer's elbow.
Tennis elbow
Tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis, is a tendinopathy of the common extensor tendon near the lateral epicondyle of the elbow. It results from repetitive microtears in the tendon due to overuse from activities involving forceful wrist extension. Clinically, it presents as lateral elbow pain that worsens with activities like handshaking or turning a doorknob. Physical examination reveals tenderness over the lateral epicondyle. While most cases resolve with conservative treatment like rest, NSAIDs, bracing, and physical therapy within 6-12 months, surgical debridement may be considered for persistent or recurrent cases.

For each location, it lists relevant symptoms and signs and guidelines for first aid care, including immobilization techniques and seeking urgent medical help when needed.
Sprained ankle
A sprained ankle is a stretching or tearing of the ligaments in the ankle joint, usually caused by the ankle rolling or twisting. There are three degrees of ankle sprains ranging from minor ligament stretching to a complete ligament tear. Immediate first aid involves RICE - rest, ice, compression, and elevation to reduce swelling. Further treatments may include anti-inflammatory medication, physiotherapy, ankle taping or bracing, and rehabilitation exercises to strengthen the joint. Ankle impingement can also occur when ankle tissues become trapped between bones, causing pain and limited movement.
Elbow Pain
The document discusses various types of elbow injuries and disorders. It begins by describing major elbow injuries such as fractures and dislocations, noting there are three types of fractures based on severity. Dislocations can occur in various directions when the bone moves from its usual position. Symptoms of fractures and dislocations include swelling, inability to move the joint, pain during movement, and numbness. Treatments may include elbow padding, surgery, physical therapy, and x-rays. Causes can be falls or motor vehicle accidents. Prevention includes taking precautions to avoid falls and wearing protective gear during contact sports.
Minor injuries like tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) and golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis
Pulled elbow
A pulled elbow occurs most often in children ages 1-4 years old when the radial head becomes subluxed or partially dislocated. Key signs include reluctance to use the arm, inability to straighten the elbow, and a clear history of a pulling injury. Treatment involves applying pressure over the radial head while supinating the forearm and flexing the elbow to relocate the radial head. The child's range of motion and radial pulse should be reassessed after the manipulation.

Anatomy and Biomechanics of the Elbow Joint
The elbow is stabilized both statically by bony articulations and ligaments, and dynamically by muscles. The three primary static stabilizers are the ulnohumeral articulation, anterior bundle of the MCL, and lateral collateral ligament complex. Muscles that cross the elbow act as dynamic stabilizers. The coronoid process, radial head, and ligaments all play important roles in stability, with the MCL and LCL being the primary soft tissue constraints. Proper biomechanics and force distribution across the elbow joint are necessary for normal function.
Tennis elbow
Tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis, is an inflammation of the tendons on the outside of the elbow caused by repetitive motions like tennis, volleyball, or computer use. It causes pain on the outside of the elbow and weakness when grasping. Resting the elbow and avoiding aggravating activities for 2-3 weeks is the first treatment, along with icing, anti-inflammatory medication, and exercises to maintain flexibility and strength once healing begins.
