25.01.2022 THE FIVE JOINTS OF THE SHOULDER Right shoulder, anterior view. A total of five joints contribute to the wide range of arm motions at the shoulder joint. Ther...e are three true shoulder joints and two functional articulations: True joints: 1. Sternoclavicular joint 2. Acromioclavicular joint 3. Glenohumeral joint Functional articulations: 4. Subacromial space: a space lined with bursae (subacromial and subdeltoid bursae) that allows gliding between the acromion and the rotator cuff (muscular cuff of the glenohumeral joint, consisting of the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, subscapularis, and teres minor muscles, which press the head of the humerus into the glenoid cavity. 5. Scapulothoracic joint: loose connective tissue between the subscapularis and serratus anterior muscles that allows gliding of the scapula on the chest wall. Besides the true joints and functional articulations, the two ligamentous attachments between the clavicle and first rib (costoclavicular ligament) and between the clavicle and coracoid process (coracoclavicular ligament) contribute to the mobility of the upper limb. All of these structures together comprise a functional unit, and free mobility in all the joints is necessary to achieve a full range of motion. This expansive mobility is gained at the cost of stability, however. Since the shoulder has a loose capsule and weak reinforcing ligaments, it must rely on the stabilizing effect of the rotator cuff tendons. As the upper limb changed in mammalian evolution from an organ of support to one of manipulation, the soft tissues and their pathology assumed increasing importance. As a result, a large percentage of shoulder disorders involve the soft tissues. Would you like to find out more about human anatomy, physiology and pathology? Stay tuned and make sure you turned on notification on Healthy Street and see all posts and updates.

22.01.2022 Muscle spindle function is one of the most powerful reasons any person with neurological dysfunctions needs to be assessed by an applied kinesiologist. Muscle s...pindles produce a great deal of the activity going on within the human brain. When the muscle is moved, spindle impulses travel to sensory areas of the cerebral cortex via Clarke's column, the dorsal spinocerebellar tract (DSCT), Nucleus Z, and the thalamus (shown in red). Correcting this aberration between brain cell and tissue cell is a mighty form of neurological therapy.

20.01.2022 We are creatures dependent on the sun, as humans are programmed to be outdoors while the sun is shining and home in bed at night. The brain uses the eyes to det...ect light levels. As the sun rises, it triggers the conversion of melatonin production to serotonin. Serotonin is the day-time wakefulness neurohormone. But interestingly, morning sunlight also boosts the rise of melatonin twelve hours later when the sunlight falls. It’s serotonin that is converted to melatonin when the sun falls. Melatonin is produced during the dark hours and stops upon optic exposure to daylight. Melatonin is a key pacesetter for many of the body’s circadian rhythms. It also plays an important role in countering infection, inflammation, cancer, and auto-immunity, according to a review in the May 2006 issue of Current Opinion in Investigational Drugs. Melatonin suppresses UVR-induced skin damage, according to research in the July 2005 issue of Endocrine. It’s also a powerful gut antioxidant, weight regulator, and mood stabilizer. Disruption in sleep-wake cycles and melatonin level is one of the important physiological changes in the aging process, which may result in mood disorders and sleep disorders such as decreasing sleep, early morning awakening. Increased level of sleepiness in the daytime is common in elders, and inability to stay awake for social events in evening hours, may be due to lack of sunlight in the day. Brief morning light treatment for sleep-wake disturbances in old memory-impaired individuals is effective. Light improves depression especially of seasonal kind, sleep disorders and most physical and mental disorders. Light is available in neutral light outdoors or artificial light forms. It may be used as supplementary with antidepressants or alone (in seasonal affective disorders). Exposure to morning light is a key message to the brains day night signalling system and is a critical piece to manage deep, healthy sleep for a well rested brain. I think of light and darkness as nutrients we need to properly feed our body. Did you see the sunrise today? Do you think it helps your sleep to rise early?

08.01.2022 Teeth hold the markers of stress. In post mortem studies, it has been found that you can assess cortisol levels in patients suffering from prolonged disorders d...ue to the make up of their dental enamel. During stressful experiences, our adrenal glands release the stress hormones adrenalin and cortisol to facilitate our nervous system’s ‘fight or flight’ response. However, though useful during an acute stressful experience, if we are exposed to these hormones for long periods of time they can negatively affect our memory and learning as well as heighten our susceptibility to depression. Emerging evidence suggests that exfoliated teeth may be a promising biomarker for modern medicine. They are one of the few tissues in the body that permanently record the history of environmental insults. the individual layers that build up the tooth enamel are thinner and less dense if exposed to stress, which increases the vulnerability to dental cavities. How does stress influence a growing child’s teeth? Stress does not just come from excessive demands at school but also, for example, from problems with parental relationships, constant noise or even physical and/or mental abuse. The bodies of those who experience a great deal of stress produce a lot of the stress hormone cortisol. Its concentration can be measured in the blood and saliva. Stress is linked to tooth decay due to the fact that it causes our bodies to flush out protective minerals and increase the acidic Extensive scientific research has revealed there is a connection between gum disease and experiencing negative emotions, with the severity of the gum disease increasing as the intensity of the negative emotions increases. If you're concerned for your tooth enamel, you may need to focus on exercises that may help manage stress. Factors such as diet, sleep, and exercise are all factors. Gratitude practices, where you recall three things daily you are grateful for could significantly help reduce stress and cortisol in your body. Has stress affected your teeth?

04.01.2022 SYMPTOMS OF A PINCHED NERVE A pinched (compressed) nerve is an uncomfortable sensation and numbness caused by increased pressure and compression of nerve tha...t leads to damage and irritation of peripheral nerves. A pinched nerve is mostly associated with back pain and neck injury. What Are The Causes Of Pinched Nerve? A pinched nerve occurs due to compression of a nerve mostly in areas where there is less soft tissue such as bone, ligaments and tendons. Pinched nerve in the upper back and neck area is very common due to intricacy of the region as many nerves pass through the area. Pinched nerve could be caused due to poor posture and improper body position (prolonged leaning on elbows), frequent crossing of legs and with time this may lead to pressure injury of nerves in these areas. It is a result of either disc herniation, degenerative changes such as arthritis or autoimmune diseases, hypothyroidism, pregnancy, and repetitive motions such as typing or using certain tools. The pressure on nerve due to above activities can lead to irritation of nerve or its protective covering (myelin sheath) or both. This causes abnormal nerve conduction leading to numbness. The damage from pinched nerve can be mild or severe and can be temporary or permanent; most of the times reversible, but in some cases can be irreversible. What Are The Symptoms of a Pinched Nerve In Your Upper Back? The most common symptom of a pinched nerve in the thoracic spine and cervical spine is numbness and tingling sensation in the upper back or neck region that might also radiate to the arms, shoulders, hands, fingers and upper chest area and is felt as pins and needles sensation or a burning sensation. Initially, the sensations are fluctuating, but with time, they become persistent. It may also be accompanied by pain that is typically felt as a sharp or an electric sensation or on occasion’s dull sensation in the middle of the back. The pain might also radiate to the front of the chest, abdomen, shoulders, arms and hands. Pain might also be accompanied by muscle or back spasms along with muscle stiffness in few people. Nerve compression in the cervical/neck region might also cause severe headaches that might be felt on the same side as the numbness or pain. In severe cases, it might lead to muscle weakness leading to decreased contraction of muscles even with enough force or temporary paralysis of muscles below the thoracic spine or cervical spine such as the legs or arms depending on severity of nerve injury. These symptoms typically subside with proper treatment. The common areas of pinched nerve in hands are medial nerve at the wrist causing carpal tunnel and ulnar nerves at the elbows (due to frequent leaning on elbows while sitting or driving) and cervical spine causing pain and tingling in the neck that might radiate to the arms and shoulders. How Is Pinched Nerve Treated? The primary aim of treatment of pinched nerve is to reduce the inflammation and release pressure around the nerve. This can be achieved by resting and icing of the area, especially if it is caused by repetitive motion. For cervical pain, neck collars and for carpal tunnel, wrist braces can be used to rest the area and restrict movement of the joints. In the beginning, conservative treatment with anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen and naproxen is done along with postural correction. Antispasmodics can also be used if muscle spasms are present. If this does not cure the symptoms then home exercises and/or physical therapy and corticosteroid injections can be opted for. It usually cures the symptoms, but if there is persistence of symptoms then the last resort is surgery to release pressure of the compressed nerve. Nowadays, alternative medicine is also becoming popular and some people prefer to go to a chiropractor or acupuncturist and benefit from the sessions too.

03.01.2022 Perhaps the most important fluid of your body is the 250ml of cerebrospinal fluid that flows around a system of pipes surrounding the brain called the ventricle...s. CSF is produced by the choroid plexus in the third ventricle, and from here it circulates through the brain via the ventricles and then to the spinal cord. Each day the entire volume of CSF is replaced four times. During sleep, the blood brain barrier relaxes to let CSF into the neurons and flush out the build-up from the day. The veins around the chest vertebrae column transmit pressure upwards to the brain. They make up a sprawling network of tinier veins that extend up into the epidural venous system of the spinal canal. It’s called a venous plexus. During an inhale and exhale the chest rises and falls. The change in pressure flows upward to the CSF dynamics around the brain. Here’s how it works: Breath in (inspiration) Lowers chest pressure and empties the venous plexus. CSF flows down the spine. Breath out (expiration) Increases chest pressure and fills the venous plexus, pushing CSF up the spine into the head. The choroid plexus has many different functions. It eliminates waste products from brain tissues. It controls the travel of immune T cells in the CSF that promote cognition and fight infections in the brain. It regulates the travel of critical microglia and neural stem cells that create new brain cells of all types. It is the major determinant of critical neuroplasticity time windows during brain development. It is vital for the health of the brain regulating the immune surveillance and the maintenance and pruning of synapses. CSF fluid is secreted by the choroid cells into the lateral ventricles; it flows to the third and fourth ventricles and then to the spinal cord. It is taken up in the sub arachnoid space into lymph near the cribiform plate and the newly discovered sinus lymphatics to lymph nodes and the blood. To stimulate this system: 1) Take a big deep belly breath (count to 4) 2) Exhale slowly through the nose (counting to 8) 3) Inhale for 4 4) Exhale for 8 seconds. 5) Repeat 10 times What did you feel?
