69
Q

Hip Flexor tightness

A

stresses back-increase lumbar extension as thigh extends into gait

stresses knee-if during gait hip cant move into full extension
the femur cant move as far posteriorly and lock the knee as it should

70
Q

TFL tightness

A

IF IT band is not long enough
to slide easily over hip which may result in trochanteric bursitis

slide easily over knee which may result in lateral knee pain

may pull the patella laterally which may result in patellafemoral impairment

pelvic may anteriorly tilt which rotates femur internally stressing medial knee too

71
Q

Hip Abdcutor, ER and/or extensor tightness

A

increase femoral IR and adduction w/ knee valgum increasing

results in:

  • piriformis syndrome-over use from ER of femur compresses sciatic nerve
