Q

GOUT:

Hx: Pain in 1st MTP beginning @ night; am stuffness in chronic (much like arthritits)

Inspection: visible 1st MTP swelling, redness, joint deformity in chronic

SP: Warmth, edema

Decreased AROM/PROM due to swelling and pain

PROM: hypomobile in acute cases
PROM: Hypermobile in chronic cases (due to the joints becoming more lax)

Functional analysis: Decreased step length, speed, push off with 1st MTP
* push off creates lots of stress at the MTP joint

Q

Would increased proantion or supination cause more hallux valgus?
* Would pes planus or pes cavus cause this more?
* What part of the foot being in pronation causes this?

A

Pronation (puts more pressure on that big toe)

Pes planus causes this more (more pressure on that big toe)

Forefoot pronation causes this

Joint laxity / heredity can also cause this

NOTE: this causes a bunion as well

Q

This is hallux valgus

Proximal phalanx deviated laterally w/ respect to first metatarsal

You can see how this poking out of the 1st metatarsal creates that bonion

Notice the crossing toes

Q

What surgery is done to correct bunions?

A

Bunionectomy

Typically involves
* Esostectomy - removal of medial prominence/medial aspext of 1st met head

OR

  • Osteotomy - to realign metatarsals or proximal phalanx

Q

In Turf Toe is the plantar or surace disrupted (at the first MTP Joint)

A

plantar surface

Disrupts the capsular ligament
* do w/ finger - can see that the plantar side is where the stress it

31
Q

Turf Toe:
* often seen in sports (rapid accelration / deceleration)
* MTP pain
* Warmth, redness swelling
* ROM decreased because of pain
* Accessory: increased or decreased swelling or laxity endfeel
* Decreased great toe flexion strength or pain
* palpation: tender plantar aspect of MTP
* Function: Decreased push off during gait (because that needs hyper extension of MTP)

A
32
Q

For turf toe we can do things to limit hyperextnsion (straining that plnatr capsular ligament)

A
33
Q

Turf toe treatment

A
34
Q

KNOW: Grade 3 turf toe is complete disruption
* puts them in a boot
* might need surgery
* 10-16 weeks return to play (so long because its a wt bearing ligament)

A
35
Q

What is a trimalleolar fracture?

A

Both malleoli and one other structure
* could be posterior margin of tibia / taulus / soft tissue etc…

36
Q

What is a potts fracture/dislocation?

A

Any dislocation and fracture of malleoli

37
Q

What kind of fracture is this?

A

Spiral fracture

38
Q

What kind of fracture is this?

A

This is transverse fracture

39
Q

What kind of fracture is this?

A
40
Q

What kind of fracture is this?
* What motion causes this fracture?

A

Jones fracture
* NOTE: it can be on the 4th or 5th proximal metatarsal

Typically an adduction injury (leading to inversion) during plantar flexion
* basically most of the pressure is on that latearl foot
* this could be a pivoting or cutting maneuver with most of the body wt on the 5th mtararsal hd

41
Q

How old are jones fracture pts?

A

Younger (because they’re normally more athletic)

42
Q

Where is pain felt w/ a jones fracture

A

Pain at the base of 5th metatarsal
* Edema
* Brusing

43
Q

Screw fixation is typically common w/ a jones fracture
* Slow because its a wt bearing area

A
44
Q

What causes a dancer fracture?
* where is it?
* What muscle causes it?
* What fascia causes it?
* What motion causes it?

A

Avulsion fx due to traction from fibularis brevis tendon or latearl band of the plantar fascia

Caused by foreful inversion and plantar flexion
* think about standing on your tippy toes (PF) and land off tippy toes and landing on the dorsal aspect of your foot (forcing inside of foot into inversion)
* This will pull on that tendon and cause that avulsion fx of the base of MT5

NOTE: Both a jones fracture and a dancer fracture are on the base of the 5th metatarsal. However, the Dancer fracture is proximal to the metatarsal tuberosity at the very distal end of the bone (Makes sense, this is the part that is avulsed)

45
Q

Which injury is distal to the metatarsal tuberosity, jones fracture or dancer fracture?

A

Jones fracture is distal to the 5th metatarsal tuberosity

makes sense that dancers fracture is more proximal because this is the part that gets avulsed

46
Q

which foot bone is most likely to be have a stress fracture?

A

Calcaneous

47
Q

Where is a marchers fracture?

A

In the metatarsals (2,3,4)
* its a stress fracture

48
Q

Who is more likely to get stress fractures in the foot - women or men?

A

Women

49
Q

Biggest risk factor for stress fractures?

A

Caloric restriction

KNOW: Also
* Smaller bones in relation to body size
* Running / jumping sports
* repetititve stress
* new shoe wear

50
Q

What is pain like for a stress fracture in the foot?
* Do they rememebr exactly what caused the fracture?

A

Normally localized

Insidious onset (because its just repetititve overloading so they dont really know when they did it)
* No specific event, just happens over time
* eaarly on, pain only while running
* can progress to pain w/ simple abulation
* reproduction focal point tenderness

51
Q

What imaging do we do for an stress fracture

A

MRI more senstitive test early on showing bone marrow edema (use this)

Radiographic fingings typically show up after 2-8 weeks

52
Q

What is a Lisfranc Injury?
* What causes it?
* What joint is it at?
* What bone is affected?
* MOI (direct and indirect)
*

A

Fracture or Fracture dislocation at tarsometatarsal joint
* Commonly involves 2nd metatarsal bone

MOI: Loaded hyperextension of toes; external rotation force combined w/ compression (dropping something) or indirect trauma (midfoot twisting getting caught on somthing)

Indirect trauma often caused by falling off a horse and foot getting stuck in saddle on the way down. Its a twist into extetneral rotation and extension of the toes which creates this dislocation fracture at the TMT

53
Q

This is a lisfranc fracture

2nd metatarsal dislcoated dorasally
direction of force is into extension

swelling / brusing is present

pain in push off

A
54
Q

Lisfranc fracture

NWB 6-8 wks (return to sports 6-8wks)

often requires surgical fixation

A
55
Q

KNOW: OCD is normally within that taylor dome

A
56
Q

Sprains = ligaments

A
57
Q

Grade 1 sprain
* typically feel better within 1-2 weeks and usually do not seek treatment
*

A
58
Q

What ligament in the foot/ankle is most commonly injuired

A

anterior talo fibularligament

second most common is calcaneofibular ligament

third is PTFL

Deltoid is not normally affected (this is on the medial side)

59
Q

MOI is very important for identifying sprains
and sweeing the swelling

A
60
Q

KNOW: w/ a sprain in the foot:
* decreased wb, decreased stance time and decreased push off on the affected side and shortened stride length
* decreased weight bearing = it hurts

A
61
Q

The tibia and fibula are not being held together very well distally. What ligament is likely to blame?

A

anterior tibiafibular ligament

62
Q

is the deltoid ligament medial or latearl?

A

Medial

63
Q

Which kind of ankle sprain is the most common?

A

Latearl ankle sprain
* 11% of injuries within adolescents are due to this
* noramlly in sports (basketball or football)

64
Q

An adolsencet female has a history of latearl ankle sprain. What is she likely to experience in adulthood?

A

Ankle instability

(50% of adolescents w/ chronic latearl ankle sprains have ankle instability going into adulthood)
* about 1/4 of them have ankle impingment

65
Q

If you have a previous ankle sprains how much more likely are you to have another one in the next 6 months?

A

2.21 times more likely
* this is why rehab is so important - it decreases the chances of having another one

66
Q

This is differintaiting what we should do w/ a chonric ankle sprain pt vs a new one
* also keep in mind their irritability

A
67
Q

cont’d (ankle)

A
68
Q

Lateral ankle sprain pts who might have success from manual therapy interventions: - would do good w/ a movement w/ mobilization / manipulation to this segment

CRPS for success: need 3 out of 4
* Symptoms worse w/ standing
* Symptoms worse in evening
* Navicular drop of > 5.0mm
* Distal tibiofibular joint hypomobility (stiff in that lateral ankle)

A
69
Q

ankle shiz

A
70
Q

ankle shiz

A
71
Q

Ankle EX

A
72
Q

Ankle surgery:

Cast / boot 2-6 wks of NWB

Followed by stirrup brace or CAM walking brace (contraolled ankle movement brace - making sure its nice and stable and limiting certain motions) several additional weeks
* AROM starts once in removable boot
* 6-12 weeks d/c immobilizer
* 3-6 months post op wear brace with intense activity

A
73
Q

KNOW: Once your moving into that chronic rehab phase for ankle focus on wt bearing activity
* we want ankle strength to about 90% of contralateral side

A
74
Q

KNOW: We always want to strength hip and knee along w/ ankle (we can also do core) / cardio
