Both groups received general anesthesia and manipulation to restore range of motion. Outcomes including pain, activity, and range of motion were measured at various intervals up to one year post-procedure and compared between groups. The study found no significant differences in outcomes between diabetic and non-diabetic groups after manipulation for frozen shoulder.
Dry needling is a technique where thin, sterile needles are inserted into the skin and muscle to treat pain and discomfort. It involves inserting needles into trigger points in the body without injecting any substance. This allows therapists to treat musculoskeletal conditions. While similar to acupuncture in the use of needles, dry needling targets myofascial trigger points rather than meridian points. When performed by a trained physical therapist, it can help reduce pain from injuries or overuse by counteracting trigger points and promoting healing responses in the body. Potential risks are minor but precautions like pulse checks are taken to minimize any risks like injury to blood vessels or nerves.

Specific conditions like osteoarthritis, ligament injuries, and meniscal tears are examined in terms of appropriate physiotherapy management.
Muscle tears are extremely common and are often recurrent. They are not as simple as we used to think and the advent of better imaging has proven that the site, size and location of the tear, together with the presence or otherwise of the tendon is crucial information especially for elite or professional athletes, who need accurate information about return to play. Traditional treatments of electrotherapy are simply placebos. The challenge ahead is to optimise treatments for the various diagnostic categories.
The document discusses femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), a cause of hip pain and damage in athletes. FAI occurs when the femoral head and acetabulum abnormally contact each other, either from bone growth (CAM impingement) or acetabular overcoverage (pincer impingement). Surgery aims to correct the impingement through osteoplasty of the femoral head or acetabulum. While conservative care is sometimes attempted, surgery best addresses the underlying biomechanical issue causing FAI and progression of damage.
This document provides an overview of a foot and ankle session. It discusses topics like imaging the foot and ankle, common injuries like lateral ankle sprains and their treatment, and case studies involving various foot and ankle conditions like plantar fasciitis, pes planus, and Achilles tendinopathy. Clinical tests and management strategies are described for different injuries and conditions.
