25
Q

Which of the following evaluation procedures would be most effective in identifying a muscle strain or tendinopathy?

A

Manual Resistive Test (MRT)

26
Q

Which of the following is not true concerning calcaneal varus?

A

Associated with eversion

27
Q

This postural condition is associated with peek-a-boo heel, over-pronation, the excessive wearing of the medial side of the shoe and should be evaluated in a weight bearing (standing) position?

A

Calcaneal Valgus

28
Q

Client has pain in anterior compartment. AROM & PROM for dorsiflexion causes no pain. MRT to dorsiflexors does cause pain. Contractile, inert, or both?

A

Contractile

29
Q

This condition is characterized by a fallen medial longitudinal arch?

A

Pes Planus/Flat foot

30
Q

Indicates an exaggerated and high longitudinal arch of the foot.

A

Pes Cavus

31
Q

This condition can result from either a short first metatarsal or a long 2nd
metatarsal. Causing pain under the ball of the foot.

A

Morton’s foot

32
Q

In this condition the distal end of the great (big) toe deviates in a lateral direction. Often, this forms a bunion on the medial portion of the base of the great toe.

A

Hallux Valgus

33
Q

The most common lower extremity soft tissue injury?

A

Lateral ankle sprain

34
Q

The Ankle Drawer Test is designed to…

A

Evaluate the client for a lateral ankle sprain

Q

Anterior Ankle pain with AROM, resisted eversion, and passive inversion. Contractile, inert, or both?

A

Both

36
Q

The main cause of a lateral ankle sprain is?

A

Excessive Inversion

37
Q

The ligaments used to stabilize the medial ankle are collectively known as the

A

Deltoid ligament

38
Q

A client reports to you they have sharp pain in the “ball” of the foot behind the metatarsal heads. They state the pain is aggravated when they “push off” or walk on that foot. They also state it is better when they are not wearing shoes. According to the text, what is the most likely cause of this?

A

Morton’s Neuroma

39
Q

Hip pain with active medial rotation & passive medial rotation, no pain with resisted medial rotation. Contractile, inert, or both?

A

Inert

40

  • Pain is better with rest
  • Usually most tender at the anterior calcaneus
A

Pain gets worse as they continue using it.

41
Q

Which of the following in NOT true concerning Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome?
