A
  • tendon proliferation and stabilization (hip and lumbar)
41
Q

What is the tendinosis prescription for MET?

END GOAL
- 3 sets of 10-15 reps with a heavy load
- frequency - every other day to 3 days a week depending on patient
- shortened concentric positions 1st

42
Q

What are some examples of isotonic loading with compression from lengthening?

A
  • abduction from an adducted position
  • lunge with dumbbell in opposite hand
44
Q

What are some examples of isometric loading in weight bearing?

A
  • CC hip abduciton, ER and ext
45
Q

What should we know about corticosteroids for gluteal tendinopathy?

A
  • inflammation is NOT the primary issue
  • mainly acts as an analgesic
  • may hinder tendon from responding to optimal loading
46
Q

What should we know about other injections for gluteal tendinopathy?

A
  • platelet rich and other “regenerative” injection lack sufficient support for ALL soft tissue injuries
47
Q

What is hamstring tendinopathy?

A

Buttock pain that is more often a tendinopathy (-osis)

48
Q

What is the prevalence of hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • uncommon in general public
  • common among athletes
49
Q

What are risk factors for hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • Prior injury
  • regional interdependance
  • advanced age > less pliable tissue equals greater tension/compression
50
Q

What about regional interdependence can contribute to hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • L4-S1 lumbar hypermobility/instability
  • excessive hip flexor recruitment leads to anterior tilt of pelvis and adds to excessive tension / compression
51
Q

What are risk factors for hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • muscle imbalances
  • inadequate Ham: Quad ratio
52
Q

What muscle imbalances can cause hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • weak glut max, glut med, and/or adductors
53
Q

What are the goals for hamstring to quad ratio?

A
  • Males: Hams > 66% of quad activity
  • Females: Hams > 75% of quad activity
  • if not hamstrings can oppose as well and get overworked
54
Q

What are the structures involved with hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • hamstring proximal tendon
  • adductor Magnus
  • ischial bursa
  • rarely sciatic nerve (possible adhered if tendinosis)
55
Q

What does the adductor Magnus play a role in hamstring tendinopathy?

A

shared origin and fascial connections with hamstrings

56
Q

What is the primary driver to tendinosis in terms of hamstring tendinopathy?

A

abnormal mechanical loading on the tendon

57
Q

What are some etiologies and path-mechanics of hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • prior injury
  • muscle imbalances
  • repetitive hamstring action with hip in flexion
  • excessive prolonged stretcihng
  • sedentary lifestyle
58
Q

What are some repetitive hamstring actions with the hip in flexion that can contribute to hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • running and jumping
  • training errors such as overuse, springs, hills and plyometrics
59
Q

Why can a sedentary lifestyle contribute to hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • sitting on the tendon!!!!
60
Q

What are symptoms of hamstring tendinopathy?

What will we see in our observation with hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • possible atrophy if long standing
62
Q

pain with activity involving lengthening WITH muscle action
- such as squat, lunge, running, etc.

63
Q

64
Q

What will we see with resisted/MMT testing with hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • possible weakness and pain with hip extension and knee flexion, especially in a lengthened position
65
Q

What will we find in our neuro testing with hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • possible positive SLR and slump tests if sciatic nerve involved
66
Q

What special tests can we do with hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • bent knee stretch test
  • shortened muscle length test
67
Q

What is the bent knee stretch test for hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • hip and knee flexed
  • PT slowly straightens knee
  • moderate to high reliability
68
Q

What will we find with palpation with hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • TTP over proximal tendon and bursa at iscial tuberosity
69
Q

What other signs can we see (other condition) with hamstring tendinopathy?

A

Possible lumbar hypermobility/instability signs

70
Q

What is the PT rx for hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • follow general principles of glut tendinosis plus….
    > education
    > dry needling
    > neural mobilizations
71
Q

What is our patient education for hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • stand > sit
  • avoid low seats and prolonged sitting
72
Q

What should we know about dry needling for hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • limited support
73
Q

When would we do neural mobilizations with hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • if sciatic nerve involved
74
Q

What is the MET for hamstring tendinopathy?

A
  • Eccentric training reduces pain and injury
  • lumbopelvic stabilization to improve hamstring activity that supports regional interdependence
75
Q

What is the prognosis for hamstring tendinopathy?

A

Good out to at least 6 month with 8-10 weeks of pT

76
Q

What is the MD RX for hamstring tendinopathy regarding corticosteroids?

A
  • remember inflammation is NOT the primary issue
  • Mostly a degenerate tendinosis issue
  • mainly acts as a analgesic
  • may hinder tendon from responding to optimal loading
