 Lateral epicondylitis 💪  Lateral epicondylitis, also known as tennis elbow, refers to inflammation of the lateral epicondyle of the humerus. All the wrist extensors have one common tendinous origin that is lateral epicondyle of humerus. Due to repetitive stress, some of the fibers of the extensors get teared and initiates inflammation to the lateral epicondyle of humerus. Actually the fibrous attachment of the muscles anchored into the periosteum of bone and any stress causing tearing of muscle fibers leads to damage of periosteum, and this leads to inflammation.   🟣 Clinical features  ✔️Tenderness over the lateral epicondyle  ✔️Oedema ✔️Redness ✔️Patient will feel pain during extend wrist.  ✔️cause 🟣 Repetitive mechanical force.  ✔️ trauma ✔️ idiopathic ✔️ injury cause calcification  ✔️ Inflammation of annular ligament  Q) Who are more susceptible to have tennis elbow?  - In India, the householder womans are more prone to suf...

 Piriformis syndrome occurs when the piriformis muscle spasms and irritates or compresses the sciatic nerve. It often causes symptoms similar to sciatica, though it is not caused by a spinal problem like sciatica is. The piriformis is a small muscle located deep in the buttock, behind the gluteus maximus. It runs diagonally from the lower spine to the upper surface of the femur, with the sciatic nerve running underneath or through the muscle. The piriformis muscle helps the hip rotate, turning the leg and foot outward. As a result of overuse, injury, or strain, the piriformis muscle can tighten, swell, or spasm. Sports that involve repetitive forward movement of the legs, or problems in surrounding joints like the sacroiliac joints are typical causes of piriformis syndrome. The location of the piriformis muscle near the sciatic nerve means that when the piriformis muscle is irritated or injured, it can affect the sciatic nerve as well. Symptoms of piriformis syndrome include tender...

 𝐆𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐂𝐲𝐜𝐥𝐞 ——— 📚The human gait cycle last approximately 1 second and is broken down into two phases, which include stance (60-62% of cycle) and swing (38-40% of cycle). This cycle starts the moment the limb being analyzed touches the ground and lasts until that limb touches the ground again. This is also referred to as one stride. 🔎Within the two gait phases, we can identify 8 events. ✅Stance Phase: 1️⃣Initial Contact: The moment the limb being analyzed touches the ground and is usually characterized by a heel strike. 2️⃣Loading Response: Immediately following initial contact, the knee extensors and ankle dorsiflexors contract eccentricity to absorb force as the knee bends and the whole foot comes into contact with the ground. 3️⃣Mid-Stance: The body progresses directly over the limb being analyzed. 4️⃣Terminal Stance: A controlled fall occurs as the hip moves into extension and the ankle reaches maximal dorsiflexion. 5️⃣Pre-Swing: The heel comes off of the ground and t...
