Q

inversion talar tilt. what does it test? how is it done?

A

talus instability. foot held in slight dorsiflexion, pull talus into inversion.tests: involvement of CF ligament, possibly with ATF and PTF ligaments

Q

Kleiger’s. what does it test? how is it done?

A

hold ankle in neutral position or dorsiflexed, stabilize distal tibfib jointneutral positoin: tests deltoid ligamentdorsiflexed: tests syndemosiscan imply: deltoid injury, syndemosis pathology, or fibular fracture

Q

Subtalar joint play (Cotten Test)

A

external rotation test identifies syndesmosis pathology by forcing the talus and calcaneus against the lateral malleolus, causing it to be displaced laterally and posteriorly stressing the syndesmosis.

Q

Cotten test (how to)

A

side lying. stabilize talus, the other hand cups calcaneus, force moves talus laterally or medially. positive test is increased or deceased lateral or medial talus translationmedial glide commonly associated with lateral ankle sprains

Q

what is Morton’s toe

A

when the 2nd ray is longer than the 1st.-changes walking dynamics, shoe size issues

21
Q

Claw toes

A

hyper extension of MTPflexion of PIP/DIP joint

22
Q

Hammer toes

A

hyper extension of MTPflexion of PIPextension of DIP

23
Q

Pes planus

A

lack of medial longitudinal archmay have pn in arch or ankleneed orthotics

24
Q

Pes Cavus

A

high, rigid archclaw toe is commonpn in arch - need cushioning

25
Q

Jones fracture

A

base of 5th MTP

26
Q

Avulsion fracture

A

5th MT styloid fractures

27
Q

March fracture

A

fracture of 2, 3, or 4.stress fracture of distal 1/3 of tes.he metatarsal

28
Q

Lis franc injury

A

fracture in the tarsals (could be sprain or dislocation)usually on toes, landed on with axial force

29
Q

hallux valgus causes..

30
Q

turf toe

A

1st MTP, sprain, MOI: repeated hyper extension of toe. foot planted, forced into dorsiflexion.extreme pn, can be very disabling

31
Q

sesamoiditis

A

Inflamed sesamoidscommon in ballet dancers or from wearing high heels

32
Q

Lateral Ankle Sprain symptoms

A

pn in all motions, mostly plantar flexion and inversiontest with anterior drawer or inv talar tilt

33
Q

Syndesmosis sprain (high ankle sprain)

A

MOI:external rotation of foot, hyper dorsiflexion/plantarflexion, -some swelling-end ROM causes increase in pn-positive Kleiger’s

34
Q

Medial Ankle Sprain

A

-pain on deltoid-usually causes a fracture of fibula 1/3 of the way up-eversion talar tilt-squeeze test

35
Q

Tibial fracture

A

overuse pathology of the shaft

36
Q

fibular fracture

A

usually not from direct hitcomes with specific ankle pathologieslower 1/3

malleoli fracture

A

associated with ankle sprainsavulsion or direct hit
