LECTURE 1 Flashcards
stages of tissue healing
acute
subacute
chronic
strain
mild injury to muscle usually
biarticulates are usually most strained (quads, hams, gastroc)
sprain
injury of ligament or soft tissue
grade I sprain
ligament stretched, but intact
grade 2 sprain
incomplete or partial tear
most patients have this type of sprain
grade 3 sprain
complete tear
If muscle/tendon is completely torn, then NO PAIN, SEVERELY WEAK
complete muscle tear/grade 3 strain
no pain
severe weakness
partial muscle strain
grade I/II
pain, reduced strength
popeye muscle tear
long head of biceps (biarticulate)
distal tear, muscle belly migrates up
what attitude does foot rest when achilles has grade 3 strain
neutral (no longer plantar)
dislocation
complete loss of anatomical relationship
subluxation
incomplete or partial dislocation
which direction does shoulder most commonly dislocate?
anterior!
tendinitis
inflammation of tendon
results in scarring/calcium deposits
tendinosis
pathology of chronic degeneration WITHOUT inflammation
