Q

Biomechanical causes compression neuropathy

A

Space occupying-herniated disc, cyst

Degenerative causes-foraminal stenosis

Post traumatic-fracture, hematoma, compression from equipment

Iliopsoas

A

Psoas minor and iliacus muscle

90
Q

Piriformis

A

Origin sacrum
Insertion-greater trochanter
Functions: major hip ER

91
Q

Function psoas

A

Walking, flexion of femur, pelvis, lumbar spine

Maintains pelvis in erect posture

Medially rotates hip when laterally rotated

Laterally rotated hip when medially rotated

92
Q

Psoas ___ rotates hip when laterally rotated

A

Medially

93
Q

Causes / etiologies psoas syndrome

A

Flexion stress of lumbar spine

Sit ups

Deadlifts/squats
Quick elongation of psoas
Arthritis of the hip

Viscerosomatic reflexes (lower GI GU)

Urethral calculi/appendicitis (more viscerosomatic)

94

Q

Rectum bladder uterus viscerosomatic

A

A

Colon cancer, diverticulitis, femoral bursitis, hip arthritis, prostatis, salpingitis, urethral calculi, herniated disc

97
Q

Presentation psoas syndrome

A

Walk flexed forward and to one sire (difficulty sitting or standing upright(

Difficulty lying prone

Walking S

Pain in thoracolumbal, SI, lumbosacral, gluteal , pain stop at knee on contralateral side, pain at belt line

98
Q

What happens posture hip flexors tight

A

Flattened lordosis and forward flexed posture

Backward bending sacral base

Abdomen protrude

Tight hamstrings-counteract hip flexion, cervical lordosis

99
Q

Thomas test

A

See space between posterior thigh and table

Psoas

When pull both knees to chest and then drop one
If cant flex may be tight quad

100
Q

Osteopathic psoas

A

Hip flexion.extensoin ROM
Screen for innominate somatic dysfunction
Screen for sacral somatic dysfunction
Screen for lumbar somatic dysfunction tender pts-iliacus, low ilium, al1-5, c/l piriformis

101
Q

Key dysfunctions

A

Tight psoas (identified through ROM testing)

L1 flexed rotated and sidebent to the side of the tight psoas

102
Q

Five staged psoas: phase 1

A
  1. Both sides tight, flexed and flat lordosis, L1 flexed

Increased or flattened lordosis

Can’t stand straight, positive Thomas, pain hip extension, pain at belt line wraps around

103
Q

Treat stage 1

A

CS, indirect ME

Passive stretch rolled towel
NSAIDs andor muscle relaxants

104
Q

What not do stage 1

A

Direct stretching or direct ME ina cute setting

Will irritate

Don’t use eat (unique to this dysfunction)

105
Q

Cs stage 1

A

Low ilium, iliacus, rolled passive towel stretch(towel belower lower back)

Coldpack

106
Q

Stage 2

A

Unilateral spasm
Bent forward and to a direction (say right)

Key lesion-L2 F RR SR
Psoas spasm, r hip external rotation dysfunction

Sidebent toward and rotate away l2-4 RlSr

L5 Extended

Pain at right belt line +lateral flexion test

107
Q

Treat stage 2

A

L2, L2-L5, psoas stretch, muscle relaxants and nsaids

108
Q

Stage 3

A

Postural compensation

Axis on side of SD
L pelvic side shift -shifts away from side of SD, causes SB towards SD right

Pain at lumbosacral junction at side of sacral axis

Treat-treat torsion, ME, HVLA<

If chronic, possible R posterior innominate SD->posterior rotation shortening right leg

109
Q

If chronic stage 2

A

R posterior innominate SD-> R short leg syndrome

110
Q

Stage 4

A

L piriformis spasm (opposite side from psoas SD)
L piriformis TP

Pain. At L pelvic side shift ->eft gluteal, SI, hip bc of the piriformis

Exam-L LE external rotation 
Treatment-treat piriformis: CS
Spray and stretch
Trigger point injection
*do what did before but add piriformis
111
Q

Stage 5

A

Add sciatica

L sciatic nerve irritation can follow quickly after S2

Pain L gluteal, SI, hip, radiates down L leg to knee no neurological effects no emg issue
Straight leg +

Left leg paresthesia(stop at knee)
No neural deficits, msucle atrophy
EMG -, - nerve conduction study
+ straight leg raise>30

Treat with adding a low dose steroid

112
Q

Treat stage 5

A

Low dose steroid

113
Q

Visceral cause

A

Pathology go then start doing OMT

114
Q

Chronic structural issue

A

More OMT

115
Q

Stretching psoas

A

Psoas, piriformis (happy baby pose)

116
Q

Do for psoas

A

Passive stretch with rolled towel 3 times a day

Supine leg lifts
Push ups
Swimming
Report any change in condition

117
Q

Do not psoas

A

Sleep ones tomach, use heat to treat, slump/slouch when sitting bend forward, lean toward painful sidebending, perform sit ups, lean backward when standing

118
Q

Narcotic

A

Stage 5 but off quick to muscle relaxer and nsaid

119
Q

Treat pharm psoas

A

NSAIDs, muscle relaxant, steroids, pain management for spinal injections useful

120
Q

;5-S1 ambulatory compensation

A

Stance leg engages oblique sacral axis
-wt shift results in lumbar towards

As swing leg moves forward, sacral base moved anteriorly as well around stance leg axis
