Presents as swelling over the limb. The most common integumentary complication is cellulitis |
|
Venous insufficiency ulcer |
Involves the medial leg, irregular in shape, hyperpigmentation around the skin |
|
Cellulitis |
Characterized by expanding local erythema, palpable lymph nodes, fever, and chills. Mostly caused by cuts, abrasions, insect bites, and local burns |

Infection of the bone. Pain, fever, edema, erythema, tenderness |
|
Hematocrit values |
Men 41-50% normal Women 36-48% |
|
Infection |
Influence white blood cell count |
|
Ulnar nerve entrapment |
At level of hamate (tunnel of Guyon): strengthening exercises for lumbricals and interossei (squeeze therapy putty between the sides of the finger) At cubital tunnel: squeeze hand grip with elastic band resistance |
|
Median nerve impingement at level of carpal tunnel |
Practice pinching between thumb and the tip of the index finger |
|
Median nerve impingement at level of the wrist |
Oppose thumb to metacarpal phalangeal joint of each finger |
|
Adhesive capsulitis |
Full external rotation can be achieved, doesn't happen with young people |
|
Atraumatic instability |
Apprehension when shoulder is passively positioned in abduction and external rotation |
|
Acromioclavicular separation |
Closed pack position is at 90° |
|
Superior labral tear |
Apprehension at abduction and external rotation, but cause is traumatic with sudden onset |
|
Talar tilt test |
Used to evaluate integrity of the calcaneofibular ligament |
|
Ankle anterior drawer test |
Used to evaluate the integrity of the anterior talofibular ligament |

Compression of the distal shafts of the tibia and fibula |
Used to test for syndesmosis injury, includes anterior tibiofibular ligament |
|
Squeezing posterior lower leg with the ankle in neutral dorsiflexion |
Used to test the integrity of the Achilles tendon |
|
Prostate enlargement |
Difficulty initiating the urine stream |
|
Test for functional horizontal abduction |
Performed in sitting or standing position. Horizontal adduction is performed in supine |
|
Test for posterior capsular tightness |
Side lying, scapula fixed in retraction, shoulder moves in horizontal adduction |
|
Anterior interosseous syndrome (Kiloh-Nevin) |
Inability to flex distal phalanx of thumb and index due to entrapment of anterior interosseous nerve |
|
Entrapment of radial nerve |
All extensor muscles of forearm will be affected |
|
Entrapment of posterior interosseous nerve |
Results in functional wrist drop |
|
Ulnar nerve entrapment |
Cannot fully adduct little fingers and hold in abducted and extended |
|
Tingling and numbness extending from neck to thumb and index |
Involves median nerve. Shoulder external rotation and abduction can test for that |
|
Radial nerve test |
Shoulder medial rotation |
|
Junctional rhythm (heart) |
P wave would be absent |
|
Left thoracolumbar scoliosis with level hips |
C curve is concave on right. This results in shortened trunk musculature on the right (quadratus lumborum) |
|
Hypothyroidism |
Exhibit muscle aches and bradycardia |
