Q

todd a rugby player was in a tournament this past sunday afternoon and complained an opposing player fell on his knee. He describes the fall as a direct blow to the knee, hyperextending the joint. When examining him, the trainer found Todd could point to the pain which was on the posterolateral portion of the joint and followed the joint line lateral and anterior. Todd described the pain to the trainer as sharp, throbbing and constant pain.

Q

strain/sprain differential

A

resist or arrest an attempted motion (so that the muscle fibers contract, but the joint does not move), if pain occurs suspect STRAIN.

Passively move the same joint, if pain occurs suspect SPRAIN
