SLAP lesion, short for Superior Labrum Anterior and Posterior tear, is a shoulder injury that involves the ring of cartilage (labrum) that surrounds the shoulder socket. This type of injury specifically affects the top (superior) part of the labrum, where the biceps tendon attaches, and can extend from the front (anterior) to the back (posterior) of the attachment site. This guide aims to provide an overview of SLAP lesions, their causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and the role of physical therapy in the recovery process.
Subacromial bursitis is a common shoulder condition characterized by inflammation of the subacromial bursa, a small fluid-filled sac located beneath the acromion (the bony prominence at the top of the shoulder). This condition can lead to pain, swelling, and reduced mobility in the shoulder. This guide aims to provide an informative overview of subacromial bursitis, its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and the role of physical therapy in its management.
Shoulder fractures, such as clavicle (collarbone) fractures and proximal humerus (upper arm bone) fractures, are common injuries that can result from falls, sports activities, or trauma. These fractures can cause significant pain, swelling, and limited mobility in the shoulder area. This guide will provide an overview of shoulder fractures, their causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and the role of physical therapy in the recovery process.
Rotator cuff tears are a common yet debilitating shoulder injury, impacting the ability to perform everyday activities and often causing significant pain. This blog post will delve into the nature of rotator cuff tears, their causes, and most importantly, how physical therapy plays a crucial role in healing, restoring function, and enhancing quality of life.
Frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, significantly impacts life by limiting your ability to perform daily tasks and reducing your quality of life. This blog explores adhesive capsulitis, its underlying factors, symptoms, and most crucially, how physical therapy can help you regain mobility and enhance your overall well-being.
Cervical spinal instability is a condition characterized by excessive movement between the vertebrae in the neck, leading to pain, nerve compression, and potentially serious spinal cord injury. This instability can compromise the structural integrity of the cervical spine, affecting its ability to support the head and protect the spinal cord. In this guide, we'll explore cervical spinal instability, including its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and the role of physical therapy in managing this condition effectively.
Cervical facet syndrome is a condition characterized by pain and stiffness in the neck, resulting from degeneration or injury to the facet joints in the cervical spine. These small joints provide stability and allow for smooth motion in the neck. In this guide, we'll explore cervical facet syndrome, including its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and the role of physical therapy in managing this condition effectively.
