|
Tendinitis tissue/mechanism
|
Tissue - tendon
mechanism- overuse/constant tension Not common by itself,usually accompanied with tendonitis |
|
|
Tendinitis factors of injury
|
1-strain not healed properly
2-faulty mechanics 3-strength or flexibility deficits |
|
|
Tendinitis S&S
1-3 |
pain on active movement
decrease in ROM weakness |
|
|
Tendinitis S&S
4-7 |
minor swelling
point tender to palpation atrophy from disuse serious:crepitus |
|
|
Tendinitis common sites
|
achilles tendon
patellar tendon rotator cuff lat/med epicondyles wrist IT band |
|
|
Tendinitis Common activities
basketball throwing sports volleyball |
basketball:achilles
throwing:rotator cuff volley:shoulder:rotator cuff |
|
|
Tendinitis Common activities
swimming running tennis |
swimming:rotator cuff/biceps tendon
running:knee Tennis:lateral epicondyle (elbow) |
|
|
Tendinitis general treatment
|
1-heat before activity
2-anti-imflammatory med 3-reduce activity 4-gradual increase in strength/streching |
|
|
Tendinitis prevention
|
avoid overuse, allow time for injuries to heal
|
|
|
Bursitis Tissue/
Mechanism |
BURSA-fluid filled sacs in and around joints designed to reduce friction
mech-acute - direct blow chronic - overuse |
|
|
Bursitis factors to injury
|
tight muscles/tendons create friction over bursa
|
|
|
Bursitis S&S
1-3 |
constant ache- rest and activity
stiff when cold weakness (due to pain) |
|
|
Bursitis S&S
4-6 |
excessive swelling
point tender squishy - sponge like |
|
|
Bursitis Common sites
|
Elbow-olecranon bursa
shoulder- subdeltoid/subcoracoid/subacromial bursae Knee-prepatellar, infrapateller bursae |
|
|
Bursitis Treatment (general)
|
heat before activity, ice after
anti inflammatory med reduce activity protective padding |
|
|
Stress Reaction (stress fracture)
mechanism |
Chronic Inflammation due to repetition forces causing undue wear to bone, or indirectly to soft tissue attachments on bones
|
|
|
Stress Reaction mechanism cont.
|
imposed mechanical stress exceeds body's ability to repair itself, bone becomes weaker before it becomes stronger
|
|
|
Stress reaction factors to injury 1-2
|
1-pounding on hard surface
2-improper footwear(inadequate shock absorption) |
|
|
Stress reaction factors to injury 3-4
|
3-excessive downhill running or jumping
4-too much too soon; bone not ready |
|
|
Stress reaction S&S
|
constant pain(worse at night)
weakness with weight bearing mild swelling extremely point tender possible lumps, nodules |
|
|
stress reaction X-ray
|
no evidence of injury will appear for about 15 days after onset of intense pain. When positive, x-ray will appear cloudy at injury site
|
|
|
Stress reaction common sites
|
Tibia, metatarsals, femoral neck
|
|
|
Stress reaction common activities
|
running, dance, basketball,volleyball, soccer
|
|
|
Stress Reaction Treatment
|
ice, anti inflammatory meds, reduce weight bearing activity (aquatic exercise good)
|
