◾️◾️◾️Meniscus Tear◾️◾️◾️ The #meniscus is a piece of cartilage that provides a cushion between your femur and tibia. There are two menisci in the one knee joint. Damage or tearing of the menisci can be caused by: 🔺activities that put pressure on or rotates the knee joint, 🔺trauma from falls or accidents, 🔺and wear and tear over time. Dutch researchers following more than 300 patients with a torn meniscus that was not severe enough to lock the knee found that joint function improved both with surgery and with physical therapy, according to the report published in JAMA.🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶. The conservative Physical Therapy approach should be considered first before surgery. 👉🏾👉🏾 #PT1st #physicaltherapy #physio #pt #titanpt #betterfasterpt #kneepain #meniscustear #prevetion #strength #exercise #venom #flexibility #ortho #pmdsystem #wednesday #wednesdaywisdom (at Marina del Rey Main Channel) https://www.instagram.com/p/Boe93aSBvi9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1rdk2tj18r2j9

An ankle dislocation occurs when the talus bone is moved out of its normal alignment with the ends of the tibia and fibula. Ankle dislocations can occur with or without fractures, but a higher percentage occur with fracture of the lateral and/or medial malleolus in addition to ligament sprains and tears. The video shows an eversion dislocation with fracture. 🚑Recovery🔻Depending on severity of the dislocation: (fracture/torn ligaments accompany dislocation, and if surgery is required ) recovery time can be as short as 6 weeks to as long as 8-12 months if returning to sport. 🔻 All dislocations require an immediate visit to ER/MD to relocate ankle and examination to determine necessary treatment. #ankle #dislocation #football #ankledislocation #ortho #immobilization #cast #brace #surgery #rehab #physio #physicaltherapy #pt #peppermint #titanpt #week1 #injuryreport #nfl #TE #waiverwire #FFupdate #thirstythursdays #PT1st #titans (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnq4AHtnDw9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1m036lpwrl67a

School is back in session and that means youth sports are back in full swing too. Sports are a great way to stay healthy, improve social skills, and keep kids away from the computer/tv screen #fortnite , but some kids/parents need to use caution as more and more adolescents are specializing in one sport at an early age. Multiple current studies have shown that youth that specialize have a greater chance of injury, specifically overuse type injuries. Up to 80% greater chance per some studies. Variety is best. #crosstraining #prehab #prevention #funfirst #warmup #cooldown #stretch #strengthen #PT411 #physio #betterfasterpt #titanpt #crazyrichasians (at Marvista Recreation Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnEzHInHzGA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13awcq26akdlu

The wearing of a mask, a rule to help prevent the spreading of COVID-19, can increase stress to an already tense environment by putting unintended strain on the neck and shoulders. With proper posture and mask fitting, the mask can serve its purpose without causing you unnecessary pain. Life in general is stressful enough, don’t let wearing a mask add to that stress.

Radial Collateral Ligament Injury/ Jammed Finger   One of the most common hand injuries in basketball, volleyball, and football is a collateral ligament injury otherwise known as a “jammed finger”. This injury occurs from a blunt impact or forced motion to the tip of the finger known as the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIP) which can cause partial or complete collateral ligament tears. Fingers are comprised of three different joints. Each joint is supported by ligaments, called collateral ligaments. On the palm aspect of the joint is a structure called the volar plate. A jammed finger is generally a sprain or injury to one of these ligaments. Signs and Symptoms: * pain * redness * swelling * bruising * increase in pain when attempting to move or use the finger * inability to straighten, extend, or bend the finger * throbbing, especially when allowing the finger to rest or when hanging at a person's side In most cases recommended treatment: ▪ Resting the injured finger/hand. ▪ Icing ▪ Compression and splinting to keep it from bending. ▪ Elevating the finger above chest level. ▪ Buddy taping ▪️Physical Therapy : treatment plan to control pain/swelling, improve range of motion, and regain strength/stability/dexterity If the joints are stable and no large fracture fragments are present, individuals can return to sport/recreation quickly with conservative treatments (RICE, Physical Therapy, and buddy taping). 🛑 If the joint is unstable with active ranges of motion, severe ligamentous damage is present, and/or bone fracture has occurred more invasive treatments may be required. #fingersprain #fingerpain #fingerpainting #basketball #football #volleyball #physicaltherapy #physio #lateralcollateralligament #jammed #jammedfinger #injuryatlas #titanpt #betterfasterpt #friday (at Santa Monica, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B82t-FkH6pm/?igshid=1aqz29svhak4i

De Quervain's tenosynovitis is a painful condition affecting the tendons on the thumb side of your wrist. Symptoms include pain when you turn your wrist, deviate your wrist side to side, grasping and making a fist. Swelling and tenderness over the lateral wrist occurs as well. Causes include any activity that relies on repetitive hand or wrist movement — such as working in the computer/phone/tablet use, racket sports, gym activity, or lifting your baby. ▶️Treatment:◀️ reducing inflammation, preserving movement in the thumb, preventing recurrence 👉🏾 #physiotherapy : reduce symptoms 👉🏾 return to pain free activity/ sport 🔀 #painreduction #cryotherapy #nsaids #RICE #bracing #ROM #stretching #strengthtraining #physicaltherapy #titanpt #injuryatlas #betterfasterpt #dequervains #dequervainstenosynovitis #wristpain #mommywristpain #tendonitis https://www.instagram.com/p/B5jOPhQnSBX/?igshid=1mu643tr5ru7q

Posture, Pain, and the Pectoralis Minor (Pec Minor) The pectoralis minor is a small thick muscle found underneath the pectoralis major near the shoulder attaches from the mid front rib cage to the front of the shoulder blade. The pec minors function is to provide stabilization to the shoulder blade and assist with pulling the shoulder blade forward. This function impacts both good and bad posture. Prolonged poor postural positions ie shoulders hunched, head forward typically leads to the pec minor shortening/tightening sustaining the position and making it increasingly more difficult to correct. Continuation of this muscle imbalance can lead to pain/symptoms in the neck/shoulders/arms/head. A home program including stretches such as the doorway/wall stretch, manual therapy, and postural strategies can help retrain the pec minor and other postural muscles to treat current symptoms and prevent future symptoms. See your local Physical Therapist for a postural assessment and a personalized treatment plan. @Dr. Jemal Khan #neckpain #backpain #posture #ergonomics #techneck #physio #physicaltherapy #titanpt #betterfasterpt #thirstythursday #hunchback #Giuliani #pmdsystem #injuryatlas #theraflex #dodgers #goblue #7thinningstretch #october (at Chavez Revine Dodger Stadium) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3LA0OEh2rN/?igshid=2v9q6wfx2bgb

Heavy and improperly worn backpacks can trigger back, neck and shoulder-related pain in children. Per the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) healthy children with a normal body weight should not carry more than 10%-20% of their body weight in a backpack. #backtoschool #backpacks #neckpain #backpain #posture #ergonomics #prevention #physicaltherapy #physio #betterfasterpt #injuryatlas #titanpt 📷@ huffingtonpost (at Culver City, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1pUDICHoKp/?igshid=ahylavcr8owh

Did you know that tequila specifically, high quality Mexican tequilas are made from the blue weber agave plant. This plant has a range of health benefits, including its ability to enhance the absorption of calcium and magnesium in the body (essential minerals for maintaining bone health) and aiding digestion, plus research has found that tequila can help lower your blood sugar. Agavins are the sugars which occur naturally in the agave plant and they have been shown to help us feel fuller for longer, therefore eating less. #prevention #health #moderation #tequila #agave #bonehealth #osteoporosis #osteopenia #weightloss #obesity #healthtips #saturdaynight #titanpt #betterfasterpt #drinkthisnotthat #saturday (at Venice, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1AvazOHnsa/?igshid=1iakxt2qodu4e
