Answer 1

inferior to crest of ilium in body of TFL muscle- abduction of hip/thigh with flexion

Question 2

IT band location and treatment position

Answer 2

along the IT band distal to greater trochanter- abduction of hip/thigh with flexion

Question 3

Answer 3

posterior thigh lateral to midline halfway down femur shaft- flexion of knee with external rotation and abduction of tibia

Question 4

lateral meniscus location and treatment position

Answer 4

lateral aspect of meniscus on the joint line- knee flexion with abduction, internal or external rotation of tibia

Answer 6

anteromedial aspect of meniscus on joint line- flexion of knee with internal rotation and adduction of tibia

Question 7

ACL location and treatment position

Answer 7

superior aspect of popliteal fossa on hamstring tendons medial or lateral- pillow under distal femur with posterior force applied to proximal tibia to move tibia posteriorly

Question 8

PCL location and treatment position

Answer 8

center or slightly below center of popliteal fossa- pillow under distal femur with shearing force applied to distal femur to move it posteriorly on proximal tibia
