Q

Hamstring Rehab

Phase I goals
Protect healing tissue
Avoid excessive active or passive lengthening of hamstrings
Minimize atrophy

Phase II goals
Regain (90%/pain free) hamstring strength
Develop neuromuscular control of trunk and pelvis

Phase III goals
Symptom free during (most/all) activity
Normal conc and ecc hamstring strength through (90%/full) ROM and speeds
Improved neuromuscular control of trunk and pelvis with sport specific movements

Phase 1 - Create a healing environment for the hs – don’t stretch it, but engage the hamstrings in noncommittal ways

A

Q

Treatment Strategies

Hamstrings work…

 In open chain:
Decelerate knee (flexion/extension) at end of (stance/swing) phase

In closed chain:
In stance to facilitate hip (flexion/extension) at initial contact and knee (flexion/extension) during terminal stance (running)
The hamstrings and rectus abdominis are decelerators of pelvic anterior tilt throughout stance.

Consequence of short RF, weak RA?

Cool

31
Q

Exercises that target eccentric hamstring strength at (shorter/longer) muscle length (important for sprinting).

A

longer

32
Q

Stabilize pelvic tilt - prevent (anterior/posterior) pelvic tilt

Stable core allows development of (smaller/larger) forces at the hip and facilitates an efficient transfer of power during sprinting.

Q

Grade (2/3) to tendon/ligament is a complete tear. It will be up high around the isch tub and come off of the bone.

A

3

37
Q

MOI:

Extreme forceful hip (flexion/extension) with knee fully (flexed/extended)

Pulls them forward and their hips drop back. Knees are locked up and they go into hip flexion.
Slip and fall and slide - leg out in front and knee extended
Foot gets caught – head over heels

A

flexion; extended

38
Q

Better repaired (acutely/chronicly) – wait too long = harder to repair

When it domes off of the bone it starts to contract towards the distal part where it is attached and it shortens up.

Outcomes are good overall and people do well. Very low rerupture rate.

A

acutely;

39
Q

Putting it back on the ischial tuberosity

Sewing tissue back under the bone – don’t want to tear it. Think what would damage the repair that was just done. Avoid hip (flexion/extension) and knee (flexion/extension).

A

flexion; extension

40
Q

Pt in a knee brace so they don’t go into knee extension, some are in a hip brace so they don’t flex the hip.

Q

Rehab Progression Overview:

Phase 1: protection (surgery to _wks)
Limited WB

ROM limits?:
Knee extension possibly (tension on repair?)
What motion(s)?
Hip (flexion/extension), knee (flexion/extension)
Combined motions (hip _____+ knee _____)

Brace

Try not to ruin the surgery

Limited WB – put them on crutches, unload them and shorten their stride with AD

ROM Limits – if it was repaired with tension ROM limits will be higher.

Avoid hip flexion and knee extension

A

6; flexion; extension; flexion; extension;

43
Q

Have them (flex/extend) their knee as they get up

A

flex

44
Q

Phase 2 (Wks _ - _)

Progress WB / gait

Progress ROM
Hip flexion (knee (flexed/extended))
Knee extension (hip (flexed/extended))
Neural glides

No resisted hamstrings yet!!
No hamstring stretch yet!!

Everything takes 6-8 weeks to heal except for the scaphoid and a couple of other bones.

Blood supply, age, bone quality, diabetes, smoking, activity level before the surgery influence healing times.

When starting to restore ROM – do it one piece at a time – hip flexion with the knee flexed. Knee extension with the hip extended (heel slide).

The sciatic nerve is next to the hamstring insertion – a lot of scarring is possible. They might get stuck so have to do neural mobilization. Nerve pain going down their leg – think sciatic nerve.

A

6-9; flexed; extended

45
Q

Phase 3: (-) Months

A

46
Q

Phase 4 (-) months

return to sport activity

Functional strength progression
Plyometrics
Running
Return to sporting activities is typically allowed at - months postoperatively

A

5-9; 6-9

47
Q

Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy

Middle aged athlete
History of hamstring strain

MRI:
partial tearing / degeneration
Scar - tendon thickening

Weak hip extension with flexed knee prone:
Poor (hamstring/gluteal) control / activation

Hamstring cramping (unilateral bridge)
Tender to palpation at IT

Proximal hamstring stretch (decreases/reproduces) pain

Weak hip extension with knee flexed in prone – testing glute max

Tender to palpation in the isch tub

Proximal hamstring stretch – good test to do to rule in or out

A

gluteal; reproduces;

48
Q

Eccentric hamstrings – good for organizing scar tissue at the insertion of the HS

Lower cross syndrome – Tight hip flexors, tight trunk extensors, weak glutes, and weak abs.

Injection is good to use in conjuction with the rehab.

PRP – get all the RBCs condensed and they reinject it (evidence isn’t great).

Q

External – outside, caused by thickening in the lateral structures. Greater trochanter bursa could be inflamed. Tissue snaps as the tissue moves from flexion to extension.

Internal – movement from flexion to extension

Intra-articular – labral tear and they’ll describe clicking as the primary complaint

A

Got it

51
Q

The Snapping Hip
(Coxa Sultans)

Internal and external cases will (not likely/likely) report snapping and symptoms (in front of/behind) hip or (medial/lateral) thigh - Patient can often self-demonstrate these findings with activity

The intra-articular case will more likely report “clicking”, with a (primary/secondary) complaint of joint pain

A

likely; in front of; lateral; primary

Possibly (gluteus medius/gluteus maximus), inflamed GT bursa

Q

Often don’t need surgery

Take out the bursa that is irritated or causes pain

58
Q

Cause

Spasm or shortening of piriformis muscle that causes compression of _____ nerve

Why spasm:

Direct trauma:
Hematoma, scarring
“wallet neuritis”

Overuse:
Lumbar / SIJ pathology
Crosses SIJ

Si joint instability or hypomobility can irritate the piriformis and the sciatic n.

Q

Leg held in position of ER (static position)
(Short / hypertonic piriformis)

Resisted (Adduction/Abduction) (activates piriformis)
Hip flexed + test = pain

A

Abduction;

62
Q

Surgical release is uncommon

US doesn’t work
Soft tissue mobilization – people are tender, don’t want you poking in that area because it is sensitive

A

Got it

63
Q

People love to stretch it, have to tell them to tone it down if they stretch aggressively – keeps the sxs irritable.

A

Got it

64
Q

Another Theory

Excessive Adduction and IROT:
Weakness of (hamstrings/ glute max/medius)
Lower crossed syndrome

Glutes are ineffective
Greater eccentric load may be shifted to piriformis muscle
Results in irritation of _____ nerve

Causes greater load on the piriformis if glutes aren’t doing its job

A

glute max/medius; sciatic
