Understanding Frozen Shoulders - Symptoms, Causes and Treatment

Image
The shoulder joint has a unique joint structure which is designed to enable extensive three-dimensional mobility and quick reflexive responses. However, this amount of flexibility comes at the cost of its stability and durability. Stiff shoulders are one of the adverse sequelae caused due to fractures or dislocations of the shoulder, cervical or thoracic surgery, or immobilisation for treating any upper limb surgery. Often known as ‘adhesive capsulitis’, the evolution of the frozen shoulder condition can be summarised in four stages: However, It is traditionally regarded as a self-limiting condition, which universally settles and recovers with or without treatment over a variable time course. Stage 1 : After the symptoms have been present for three months, there is a mild loss of front flexion, abduction and internal and external rotation, and an aching pain which aggravates while moving the arm. Stage 2 : Also known as the ‘freezing stage,’ which occurs afte...

Shoulder Dislocation: Causes, Symptoms & Treatment Options

Image
The shoulder joint consists of a ball and socket type structure where the upper arm bone, i.e. the humerus is held within the socket which enables rotational and linear movement. When the humerus is moved out of its socket due to external force, it is termed as a ‘shoulder dislocation’. Shoulder being the most mobile joint of the body is also more susceptible to such injuries. And as it moves in multiple directions, it can get dislocated completely or partially moving forward, backward or downward. However, most dislocations occur towards the front of the shoulder. Additionally, it may get more complicated and painful if the fibrous tissues that join the bones of your shoulder are strained or torn. Causes: Only a powerful force such as a sudden direct blow to the joint or hard rotational movements can cause dislocations in shoulders with a normal structure . Such forces are commonly caused by: Sports injuries : these type of injuries are more common in tackle-type sport...

Knee Cartilage Damage - Causes, Symptoms & Procedures

Image
Knee Cartilage is a flexible insulation-like tissue matrix that develops over the bones’ surfaces which converge at the knee joint i.e., the end of the thigh bone, the top of the shin bone, and the back of the kneecap. Due to the absence of blood vessels, knee cartilage tissues have minimal abilities of self-repair or regenerate if damaged. Hence, in the case of significant cartilage damage or degeneration, the only options are to either synthetically regenerate it via Cell Therapy, or entirely replace it. Causes: Knee cartilage injuries are common in athletes who undergo rigorous physical training and play long-term games that involve brisk physical movements such as football, cricket, basketball, rugby, and so on. A heavy direct impact like a ground dive or hitting a ball can cause severe damage to the cartilage. Also, quick turning, twisting, and jumping can easily strain the joint and cause the cartilage to get injured or degrade over ti...

Understanding ACL, MPFL and Osteotomy Knee Surgeries - Causes & Treatments

Image
The knee joint is one of the most crucial junctions in the human body as it connects the shinbone, the thigh bone and the fibula bone, which form our legs. The knee joint is responsible for providing strength, stability, turning, and smooth mobility of the entire limb by holding the three long bones of the leg with the help of thread-like ligaments and a kneecap. Two of these ligaments, i.e. anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) , are placed inside the knee and control the lateral angular movements of the knee joint. The other two ligaments, i.e. Medial collateral ligament (MCL) and Lateral collateral ligament (LCL) are placed on the sides of the knee which control the side angular movements for the knee. Apart from these ligaments, there is another ligament called ‘ Medial Patellofemoral Ligament (MPFL) ’ which holds the inner knee cap together with the thigh bone. These ligaments are incredibly crucial for helping the legs in perfo...
