Q

Clinial Presentation includes

Lateral ankle sprains

A
  • ecchymosis
  • tenderness and pain located over ATFL and calcaneofibular ligament
  • limted ankle ROM
  • antalgic gait
17
Q

Lateral ankle sprain

diagnosis

A
  • grade 1-3
  • differential diagnosis includes ankle fracture
  • damage to medial ligament
  • dislocated ankle or other soft tissue damage
  • use ottawa ankle rules to determine if there is presence of fracture
18
Q

Lateral ankle sprain

PT diagnostic tests

A
  • palpation
  • anterior drawer test
  • talar tilt test
  • MSK ultrasound
  • with varus test = ankle neutral will stress the calcaneofibular ligament
19
Q

Lateral ankle sprain

interventions

A
  • initially want to reduce pain and swelling with RICE
  • as soon as pain allows begin pain free AROM
  • restore eversion strength
  • proprioceptive training
20
Q

Anterior/medial tibial stress syndrome

A
  • typically occurs in runners and other athletes that are exposed to intensive weight bearing over time
  • presents as exercised induced pain over anterior/medial tibia
  • pain persists for hours and days after exerise
  • pain decreases with running in early stages
  • early onset of pain with more frequent training in lateral stages
21
Q

Anterior/medial tibial stress syndrome

clinical presentation

A
  • tenderness over anterior medial border of tibia
  • pes planus
  • tight achilles tendon
22
Q

Anterior/medial tibial stress syndrome

differential dx

A
  • tibial and fibular stress fracture
  • exertional compartment syndrome
  • leg tendinopathy
  • lumbar radiculopathy
  • sural nerve or popliteal artery entrapment
23
Q

Anterior/medial tibial stress syndrome

Diagnostic tools

A
  • imaging is used mostly if there is a concern for a more significant tibial stress
  • X-ray is used in an early stress fracture
  • MRI is preferred imaging
24
Q

Anterior/medial tibial stress syndrome

PT tests

A
  • one leg hop test
  • provocation test: pain with resisted plantarflexion
25
Q

Anterior/medial tibial stress syndrome

interventions

A
  • acute = rest with NSAIDs
  • subacute: low impact and cross training exercise, stretching/strengthening of calf muscles, proprioceptive
  • prefabricated orthotics can reduce tibial stress - shock absorption
26
Q

Deep peroneal nerve entrapment

A
  • entraped beneath the inferior extensor retinaculum
  • caused by a tight inferior extensor retinaculum, repetitive microtrauma (running), acute trauma (ankle sprain)
  • tight fitting shoes and abnormal biomechanics
  • sharp shooting pain, numbness and or tingling alone the distribution
  • symptoms exacerbated with physical activity and alleviated with rest
27
Q

Deep peroneal nerve entrapment

Clinical presentation

A
  • tinel sign - dorsum of foot
  • edema of the ankle upon palpation
  • end range PF may reproduce symptoms due to stretching of the nerve
  • pes cavus can increase likelihood of nerve entrapment due to dorsal compressive forces against shoe
28
Q

Deep peroneal nerve entrapment

treatment

A
  • NSAIDs or topical anti-inflammatory creams
  • rest from athletic activity
  • footwear changes and shoe-lacing technique modification
29
Q

tarsal tunnel syndrome

A
  • compression of the posterior tibial nerve (L4-S3)
  • in tarsal tunnel or one of its branches (lateral/medial plantar nerve)
  • pain over tarsal tunnel
  • sharp shooting pain and numbness in the foot
30
Q

tarsal tunnel syndrome

  1. extrinsic causes
  2. intrinsic causes
A
  1. poorly fitted shoes, trauma, valgus or varus rearfoot
  2. tendinopathy, tenosynovitis, osteophytes, hypertrophic flexor retinaculum, ganglion cyst
31
Q

tarsal tunnel syndrome

clinical findings

A
  • tinel sign produces pain or tingling in the distribution area of nerve
  • end-range DF and eversion produce symptoms
32
Q

tarsal tunnel syndrome

treatment

A
  • Ice, NSAIDs
  • ultrasoud
  • E-stim
  • nerve mobilization/glides
33
Q

High ankle sprain

A
  • MOI: DF +ER
  • anterior tibiofibular ligament
  • shorter step length on opposite side
