5 cardinal signs of inflammation:
redness heat pain swelling loss of fx (will not always see them all)
Typical signs of malignancy:
constant pain pain worse at night lumps/growths unexplained weight loss unwarranted fatigue
___ degree sprain is a tear of a minimum number of ligamentous fibers resulting in localized tenderness, without instability.
1st
___ degree sprain is a tear of a greater number of ligamentous fibers that results in a greater loss of fx and joint rxn, but is still without instability.
2nd
___ degree spreain is a complete tear of ligament with joint instability (Ex: patient may hear it pop-classic ACL sprain)
3rd
____ deg strain is minimal stretching of the musculotendonous unit without permanent injury, typically accompanied by swelling.
1st
____ deg strain is partial tearing of musculotendonous unit accompanied by ecchymosis (bruising/bleeding)
2nd
___ deg strain is a complete disruption of a portion of the musculotendonous unit, accompanied by swelling, bleeding and localized discomfort, may even cause temporary disability and may have a palpable defect in the muscle.
-dent in quads
3rd
_____ is inflammation of the synovial sheath surrounding a tendon.
- usually found in the hands and feet, can affect long head of biceps
- can develop adhesions, leading to loss of fx
tenosynovitis
If have myositis ossificans (secondary to trauma that isn’t allowed to heal properly), the management of it is:
Day of injury: ice
Days 3-4: sit in hot tub and slowly flexing and extending muscle to remove hematoma and won’t develop calcification nd then ossification
Tx for bursitis:
Immediately: ice
3-4 days: US
Pes anserine bursitis is MC caused by:
PI ilium
(PI ilium stretches sartorius and puts pressure on the bursa
