Glenohumeral joint

Introduction Glenouhumeral Joint The glenohumeral (GH) joint, which is also known as shoulder joint, is a multiaxial ball-and-socket synovial joint. This joint is responsible for connecting the upper extremity of the trunk. The glenohumeral joint is one of the four joints that comprise the shoulder complex. The joint is considered to be the most mobile and least stable joint. The articular surfaces of the glenohumeral joint are the head of humerus and glenoid fossa of scapula. The humeral head can be in articulation with the glenoid fossa in any position of joint because the head of the humerus is larger than the glenoid fossa. This relationship is best compared with a golf ball siting on a tee, with stability conferred by static and dynamic…

ow can ROM in the massage treatment room benefit the massage client? Massage therapy is well matched to the demands of shoulder impingement syndrome due to chronically tight shoulder musculature. Compression of the shoulder girdle can lead to pain, loss of range of motion, and the inability to perform activities of daily living. The shoulder joint cannot move freely through a normal range of motion because the structures of the joint have been pulled to closely together. When the rotator…

The head of the humerus forms the ball for the ball- and- socket shoulder joint, with the glenoid cavity of the Scapula as the socket. The roundness of the head allows the humerus to move in a complete circle and rotate around its axis of the shoulder joint. 1:35- 2:00 Demonstrate the Anatomical neck, Greater tubercle and lesser tubercle and the intertubercular sulcus You can see that from the head, the Humerus begins to narrow to form the anatomical neck. Just below the anatomical neck, two…

Glenohumeral joint dislocations are injuries involved with damaged ligaments, fractures and neurovascular damage (Cunningham, 2012). The anterior dislocation, also known as the “subcoracoid dislocation” is when the humeral head (shoulder head) lies anterior and medial to the glenoid cavity (the fossa the humeral head articulates with). With this movement of the bone it causes pain, instability and restricts the joint. Static and dynamic forces prevent this joint from relocating (Cunningham,…

are over half of the seven scapulohumeral muscles. The four muscles are the supraspinatus muscle, the infraspinatus muscle, teres minor muscle, and the subscapularis muscle. The supraspinatus muscle fans out in a horizontal band to insert on the superior and middle facets of the greater tubercle. The greater tubercle projects as the most lateral structure of the humeral head. Medial to this, in turn, is the lesser tuberosity of the humeral head. The subscapularis muscle origin is divided from…

Biceps brachii- origin: Long head: Supraglenoid tubercle above the superior lip of glenoid fossa Short head: Coracoid process of scapula and upper lip of glenoid fossa Insertion: Tuberosity of radius and bicipital aponeurosis Action: Flexion of elbow, supination of forearm, weak flexion of shoulder joint Exercise: Bicep curl, hammer curl, barbell curl. Triceps brachii- origin: Long head: Infraglenoid tubercle below inferior lip of glenoid fossa scapula Lateral head: Upper half of…

relying on my shoulder or holding onto my arm in order to gain stability in order to stand up. He loses feeling in his legs and knees. He has had arthroscopic surgery several months ago, in which they went in and smoothed out some cartilage, fixed his meniscus tear, and a few other things. The pain since surgery is worse than it was before surgery. He was told that he would need a knee replacement, or at least a partial replacement, He was told it would be at least two to five years before he…

Joints is a key for tectonic, tectonic is a key for construction. The idea of architecture design in this exhibition will be different. Comparing to typical design strategies, which means analysis programs need or volume operation, this exhibition starting from smallest component, joint, to face the architectural discourse. How to apply or face the joints of architecture will show the difference attitude we face to our spacial design. Tectonic is a way to connect components, is a kind of…

activities such as walking, getting up from a chair or climbing stairs. However, these problems grow often over a period of time, but you don’t have to restrict your routine activities due to such pain or decreased range of motion. The major breakthroughs in orthopedic medical care have made the total knee joint replacement a feasible option for those suffering from knee joint pain. This surgery has significantly improved the quality of life of disabled patients and helped them to live an active…
