Radial Tunnel Syndrome vs Tennis Elbow Radial Tunnel Syndrome (RTS) involves compression of the deep branch of the radial nerve, often referred to as a dynamic compression syndrome. The compression occurs during specific movements like elbow extension, forearm pronation, and wrist flexion, leading to symptoms that can mimic those of Tennis Elbow (LET). In RTS, pain over the radial aspect of the proximal forearm is the primary presenting symptom, poorly localized and not based on nerve distribution. Signs include tenderness over the lateral elbow, pain during passive stretching of extensor muscles, and discomfort during resisted wrist and finger extension. Understanding the differences between RTS and LET is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment. Identifying the distinct clinical presentations and symptoms of each condition is essential for effective management and improved patient outcomes. #RadialTunnelSyndrome #TennisElbow #MedicalKnowledge #Healthcare #DiagnosisAndTreatment

I bring you back to my previous posts on how do we ensure that all Sports Individuals are cleared confidently and competently to play and/or engage in high energy required activities. Football and Rugby seem to have the highest incidences of Cardiac and Respiratory issues, with Dancer's and Athlete's having the higher rates of Musculoskeletal injuries. #sportsmedicine #dancemedicine #anatomy #appliedanatomyandphysiology #philipcuttsschoolofdanceandsportsmedicine #philipcuttstraining #betterhealtheducation

Joe had chronic tennis elbow pain for 6 months. 2% of the population has lateral epicondylitis at any point in time. That’s 1 out of 50 humans. That makes this problem quite common. Which also means that doctors and therapists struggle to fix it. The most common causes of chronic tennis elbow pain are: 1️⃣ radial nerve entrapment 2️⃣ median nerve entrapment 3️⃣ neurovascular sleeve entrapment at subscap 4️⃣ nerve root at scalenes entrapment What’s hard for docs or therapists to do is to be able to feel the nerves. Then, once the nerve is felt, they need to be able to feel whether the nerve is wigglable (yes, that’s a technical term) or not. These 2 skill sets are quite difficult and we haven’t even gotten to how to treat it yet. Is it any wonder that chronic pain is chronic? Lucky for Joe, Dr. Chris mostly sees patients who have already been to at least 3 docs or therapists without relief. After 3 treatments, Joe is 50% better. ➡️➡️ SHARE this with someone who wants their elbow pain gone yesterday #elbow #chiropractic #elbowpain

https://lnkd.in/eUqKXKzS Many dancers feel uncertain about where to seek help when injured and are often told simply to rest—a solution that does not address the root cause of their problems. Dancers need specialized treatment, which requires a deep understanding of both the technical demands of dance and the musculoskeletal system's role in overall body function. This is where MSK Dance & Sports Therapists excel. This discipline and rehabilitation program, wholly developed and owned by Philip Cutts, empowers dancers with the knowledge and skills to manage their healing and training, enabling them to surpass their peers. #mskdanceandsportstherapy #PHILIPCUTTS #anatomyandphysiology #Biomechanics #injuryprevention #injuryrehab #dancerehabilitation #dance #ballet
