Tendonitis is inflammation of a tendon, the connective tissue between muscle and bone. It can happen to any tendon in the body, but it’s most commonly seen in the elbows, shoulders, or knees ...
A gyroscopic wrist exerciser. Video showing the use - from starting the rotation with a 'shoestring' over various movements with the holding hand until stopping the rotor with the second hand. The demonstrated speeds are, in part, very high and not recommended for normal exercise due to the resulting high forces.
Passive stiffness refers to the resistance elongation that occurs in the joint, tendon, and connective tissue. The acute increase in hamstring extensibility can be seen right after nerve gliding intervention at the maximum range of motion. Nerve glide intervention is found to be slightly more effective than static stretching.
Arthrofibrosis (from Greek: arthro-joint, fibrosis – scar tissue formation) has been described in most joints like knee, hip, ankle, foot joints, shoulder (frozen shoulder, adhesive capsulitis), elbow (stiff elbow), wrist, hand joints as well as spinal vertebrae. [1] [2] It can occur after injury or surgery or may arise without an obvious ...
Tendinopathy is a type of tendon disorder that results in pain, swelling, and impaired function. [2] The pain is typically worse with movement. [2] It most commonly occurs around the shoulder (rotator cuff tendinitis, biceps tendinitis), elbow (tennis elbow, golfer's elbow), wrist, hip, knee (jumper's knee, popliteus tendinopathy), or ankle (Achilles tendinitis).
Double crush syndrome is a debated hypothesis that nerve compression or irritation of nerve branches contributing to the median nerve in the neck, or anywhere above the wrist, increases sensitivity of the nerve to compression in the wrist. There is little evidence to support this theory and some concern that it may be used to justify more surgery.
