Case 4 - Tennis elbow without ever touching a racket. ? Tennis elbow is the colloquial term for lateral epicondylitis caused by overuse of the extensor muscles/tendons of the posterior forearm causing pain at the outside of the elbow and forearm. Tennis is just one of an array of disciplines that can lead to the symptoms. Importantly it is not primarily the volume of training that can cause the condition but also training with improper form. While the term “tennis elbow” already doesn’t immediately make you think other sports could cause the condition it completely overlooks how another large group of patients acquires it: ? Just by doing their job. ? Patient history: A 45-year-old male patient working in a warehouse. His daily work involves packing quite heavy tubing and storing it on racks. Despite physiotherapy, taking time off of work and NSAR medication the symptoms of lateral epicondylitis wouldn’t subside. Waiting it out had also been tried (according to the literature 90% of cases resolve within a year). But the symptoms had now persisted for 18 months already, causing substantial pain at work but also at rest and especially at night (NRS 8/10, 3/10, 7/10). A MRI of the elbow depicts the inflammation of the tendons just at the entheses of the lateral epicondyle (A). ? Procedure: Via a retrograde transbrachial approach a microcatheter was advanced distally in the radial recurrent artery (B) and after confirmation of hyperenhancement (“blush”) (C), embolization was performed with a suspension of Imipenem/Cilastatin and iodinated contrast until the blush-type enhancement vanished (D). An ice pack was placed around the elbow to protect the skin from non-target embolization. ? Outcome: Pain at rest and during nighttime disappeared completely. Pain at work decreased to a much lower level (2/10 NRS). #IR #interventionalradiology #msk

This week, footballers Neymar & Gavi returned to play their first matches after 11 months of physiotherapy ?? ???? Brazilian soccer star Neymar ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and meniscus in his left knee on 17 October 2023 and underwent surgery in November while FC Barcelona's Gavi underwent ACL surgery after suffering the injury in Spain's Euro 2024 qualifying win over Georgia last November, and missed the rest of the season, along with ???? Spain's triumph at the Euros. Current research suggests a minimum of 9 months rehabilitation training before an athlete returns to sport (RTS). This process should be guided by the surgeon and physiotherapist because athletes reduced their reinjury rate by 51% for every month they delayed their RTS. Another study found that athletes who returned before the 9-month time point were 6.7 times more likely to suffer another ACL injury. Our suggestion is to allow people back to sport if they have satisfied the key criteria mentioned in this video, such as clearing the functional tests, regaining confidence in playing, and implementing an injury prevention programme before each training session and match. If you're having pain or swelling while playing, struggling to clear your functional tests, or need help to regain your strength and movement, book a physiotherapy session with us today at gobeyondrehab.sg #aclinjury #acltear #aclrecovery #aclrehab #kneepain

?? Competitions in physio sessions ?? I decided to create competitions for children in their physiotherapy sessions and award them with these trophies ?? The awards are related to - Muscle strength - Balance - sportsmanship - Persistent (not giving up) - Scoring Super excited to share these awards with them ???? #paediatricphysiotherapy #pediatricphysicaltherapy

#ParalympicGames2024 #OttobockTeam #InternationalCollaboration #Competence "Overcoming yourself" – these words best describe the Paralympic Games held in Paris, where 4,400 Paralympic athletes from all around the world competed in 23 different sports. ?? "A unique spirit was felt here – the athletes didn't come for medals, not to defeat others, but primarily to defeat themselves," shares ?????? Vilija Ru?kien?, a physiotherapist-orthopedic technologist from the company "Ortopedijos technika", who was part of the Ottobock technical service team at the games. This year’s Paralympic Games technical service team consisted of 164 members from 41 countries, speaking 32 languages. Throughout the games, 3,010 technical service visits were recorded. More than 55% were wheelchair repairs, 17% involved orthopedic braces, nearly 15% were for prosthetics services, and the remaining 13% involved fitting braces, orthopedic insoles, and other equipment repairs. "It was very interesting to be part of such a grand event, to see how much staff works, and how much medical and technical equipment is needed for Paralympians to be able to participate and compete in the games. I was particularly impressed by how the Paralympians care for and support each other and how they have fun together. The Paralympic Games are not just about sports. It's an extraordinary event where physical disability unlocks other enormous human powers," our colleague Vilija Ru?kien? believes.

Is it possible for athletes to overcome all the physical barriers and achieve 100% efficiency in the future? Well, the way sports science has evolved in the last decade, the future is bright for all athletes.?Take the example of Paralympians. Winning 15 medals by Indian para-athletes in the Paralympics 2024 is a testament that predicts a promising tomorrow for Sports Science & Technology. The golden period of Sports Science is definitely booming. Dr. Pradyumna Tembhekar, Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine Physician & CEO of TubewireInc emphasized the major possibility in this sector while talking to IISM. Hence, the career opportunities come hand in hand with this evolving domain.

The October is out and will be arriving to your mailboxes soon! Production for this month’s issue comes on the heels of the 2024 Paralympics, which was the impetus for its theme of Keeping Patients Active. For some O&P patients, pursuing athletics is certainly their aim. But for many, the goals are less lofty but no less important—taking their dogs for a walk, attending events with their families, going to dinner with friends—all part of keeping active. So in addition to recapping the performances of a few Paralympic athletes, in this issue we bring you insights into strategies to improve patient compliance for better outcomes and keeping knee osteoarthritis patients moving with conservative orthotic interventions. @paralympics #osteoarthritis #Paralympicathletes #competition #prosthetics #orthotics #ParalympicGames #oandp #motivation #

??♂??? Did You Know? Recent research by Bauer et al. (2021) uncovered that young handball players, particularly those aged 13-14, frequently exhibit pronounced differences in upper quarter mobility and stability between their throwing and non-throwing arms. This study, focusing on athletes aged 13-18, highlights how such asymmetries—especially in the inferolateral reach direction—can exceed established injury-related thresholds. This finding is crucial, as it suggests a heightened risk of musculoskeletal injuries among younger players. ?? These imbalances are not merely physical anomalies but potential precursors to more severe conditions if not properly managed. Interestingly, the study also noted that as these athletes mature and accumulate more playing experience, the disparities in arm function tend to decrease, pointing to the body's adaptability and the role of refined training techniques. ? For physiotherapists working with youth in sports, this data underscores the importance of early detection through comprehensive assessments. Implementing targeted interventions that promote symmetry and balance can help mitigate injury risks and aid in the healthy development of young athletes. Tailoring rehabilitation and prevention strategies specifically for young handball players can be a game-changer in their sports career. ???♂? Let's prioritize balanced development in our young athletes to keep them safe, healthy, and competitive on the court! #upperquarterybalancetest #measurz #mat #data #physio #physiotherapy #physicaltherapy #chiro #chiropractic #osteo #osteopathy #exphys #exercisephysiology #personaltrainer #podiatrist #athletictrainer #strengthtesting #hhd #musclestrength #functionaltraining

Why Cortisone Injections Aren’t the Best Solution for Tendinitis Cortisone injections may offer temporary relief for tendinitis, such as tennis elbow, but they don’t address the underlying causes. Here’s why physical therapy and hands-on treatment are more effective: 1. Targeted Strengthening: Exercises help to strengthen the muscles and tendons, reducing the risk of future injuries. 2. Improved Mobility: Manual therapy improves tissue quality and joint mobility, promoting long-term healing. 3. Sustainable Results: Consistent therapy offers a lasting solution, unlike temporary relief from injections. 4. Holistic Approach: Combining exercises with hands-on treatment addresses both symptoms and causes. Remember, if you do get a cortisone injection, you must follow up with your physical therapy exercises and treatments to ensure proper recovery. Consult with your physical therapist for a tailored plan! #TennisElbow #Tendinitis #PhysicalTherapy #CortisoneInjection #PainRelief #InjuryPrevention #ask_ieva #PBTY #Physiotherapy #ActiveRecovery By following this script and caption, you’ll effectively communicate the benefits of physical therapy over cortisone injections for tendinitis, emphasizing a holistic and sustainable approach to recovery.
