21.01.2022 GOLFER’S ELBOW [ANATOMY, PATHOLOGY AND SELF-TREATMENT] Golfer's elbow is a condition that causes pain where the tendons of your forearm muscles attach to th...e bony bump on the inside of your elbow. Golfer's elbow is similar to tennis elbow, which occurs on the outside of the elbow. It's not limited to golfers. Tennis players and others who repeatedly use their wrists or clench their fingers also can develop golfer's elbow. Tendons can be injured suddenly or they may be slowly damaged over time. You can have tiny or partial tears in your tendon. If you have a complete tear of your tendon, it is called a rupture. Golfer’s elbow is also called medial epicondylitis, tendinosis, wrist flexor tendinopathy or elbow tendinopathy. Golfer's elbow is usually caused by overuse of the tendons and muscles that you use to bend your fingers and wrist. This commonly happens if you play golf, throwing sports, and racquet sports. It may also happen with some work activities like carpentry or typing. Golfer's elbow can also be caused by a sudden injury that twists or tears your tendon. Symptoms may include: Pain on the inner side of your elbow, which can extend along the entire inner side of your forearm when you bend your wrist Your elbow may feel stiff and making a fist might hurt You may have weakness in your hand and wrist Numbness or tingling, usually in ring and little finger The bellies of all involved muscles blend into each other long before their tendons blend, so I like to refer to it as the common flexor belly/tendon. 5 muscles comprise the common flexor belly/tendon (Pic 2): Pronator teres Flexor carpi radialis Palmaris longus Flexor carpi ulnaris Flexor digitorum superficialis The 1st video in my Instagram post: instagram.com/stefanduell shows an amazing cadaver dissection by @DrJoeMuscolino explaining all the structures mentioned above. The 2nd video shows how you can perform a forearm flexor muscle self-myofascial release exercise. To perform this exercise: 1 Grab a Blackroll BALL 08 2 Place the ball on the forearm flexors proximally 3 Lean into the ball against the wall 4 Flex/Ex your wrist slowly 5 Move to the next spot distally and repeat 2-4 Check and subscribe my YouTube channel for more information about treatment and exercises: www.youtube.com/stefanduell #GolfersElbow #ElbowPain #Physiotherapy #Osteopathy
18.01.2022 IMPINGEMENT SYNDROME? SHOULDER OR ARM PAIN? SUPRASPINATUS MUSCLE - PART 1 ... [ANATOMY, FUNCTION & PATHOLOGY] The supraspinatus attaches from the supraspinous fossa of the scapula to the greater tubercle on the head of the humerus. The muscle helps to lift the arm up and is essential to all throwing actions, which is why it is the bane of so many athletes. When the supraspinatus engages or shortens, the arm is pulled sideways away from the body. It also helps to stabilize the shoulder joint keeping the humerus pressed firmly into the shoulder blade. BTW, the true motion pattern of the supraspinatus is not pure abduction. That is only the frontal plane component of its motion, which is an oblique plane motion in the plane of the scapula. The supraspinatus is one of the four rotator cuff muscles and the one most susceptible to injury. When someone tells me they are having a shoulder problem I ask: Does it hurt to put your jacket on? If the answer is yes, the overwhelming odds are that the injury is to the supraspinatus muscle and/or tendon. The four muscles of the rotator cuff are the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor and the subscapularis. The tendons of these muscles act like ligaments in a way that no other muscle in the body does, and as a result makes them more vulnerable to injury. From my previous posts you know that the supraspinatus is playing an important role especially if you suffer from impingement syndrome, that’s why it is very important to make sure to treat this muscle in the right way! Supraspinatus muscle trigger points can lead to referred pain in the shoulder, arm or hand as you can see on the red marked zones in pic 3. #Physiotherapy #Osteopathy #Supraspinatus #Muscle #ShoulderPain #Therapy #Pilates #Yoga #CrossFit #Medicine #ManualTherapy #Cadaver #Rotatorcuff #Palpation #Massage See more
16.01.2022 ELBOW, FOREARM OR HAND PAIN? GOLFER’S ELBOW? FLEXOR CARPI ULNARIS MUSCLE (FCU) ... [ANATOMY, FUNCTION, PATHOLOGY & PALPATION] @StefanDuell x @DrJoeMuscolino Check the amazing cadaver videos on that topic at my Instagram post: instagram.com/p/B0lXzcFCMZb/ FCU is the most medial flexor muscle in the superficial compartment of the forearm. It can adduct and flex the wrist at the same time; acts in tandem with FCR to flex the wrist and with the ECU to adduct the wrist. This muscle is the only muscle in the anterior compartment that is fully innervated by the ulnar nerve (C7-T1). It has an long linear origin from olecranon and posterior border of the ulna (ulnar head) and a humeral head origin from the medial epicondyle of the humerus. It inserts at the base of pisiform bone, hook of hamate and base of 5th metacarpal. The ulnar nerve enters the forearm by passing between the humeral and the ulnar heads of its origin (Pic 3). Compression and entrapment of the ulnar nerve can occur between the two heads of the FCU aponeurosis at the cubital tunnel. If your FCU is too tight or harbors TPs, it can induce pain at the ulnar side of your wrist (Pic 4). Furthermore the pain can radiate into your forearm and hand. You might have problems bending your hand and flexing your fingers. It may become so bad, that even holding a cup of coffee becomes too much. This is because this muscle can compress the ulnar nerve and thus irritate your nervous system massively. As with all the other flexors of your forearm, this muscle gets overloaded by excessive gripping motions. You will realize that you use your hands to an enormous extend in your daily life. Still, due to our mostly sedentary lifestyle, those motions are rather undemanding in terms of the load that is placed upon them. As a result, these muscles are not well trained and more susceptible to TPs if used heavily. Common examples that can overload the muscle and create TPs: using scissors excessively (hair stylists) a big day of furniture moving playing tennis climbing swimming Satellite TPs in this muscle can develop or reappear if TPs in the pectoralis minor, latissimus dorsi or the serratus posterior superior are present. So in case, you only get transient relief, check out those muscles! Check and subscribe my YouTube channel for more information about treatment and exercises: www.youtube.com/stefanduell
