26
does deep breathing help frozen shoulder
yeea
27
treatment for frozen hase
stretch | strength
28
treatment thawing phase
stretch dynamic strength functional rehab

30
cause of carpal tunnel syndrome
median nerve compression at wrist by transverse carpal ligament
31
factors impacting carpal tunnel
``` obesity diabetes thyroid disease alchyyy arthritis ```
32
most common pathology of carpal tunnel
tenosynovitis (causes swelling, causing pressure on nerve)
33
clinical features of carpal tunnel
``` paresthesia proprioceptive alterations weakness clumsiness +tinel atrophy of thenar eminence urge to shake hands ```
34
T/f palm is effected by carpal tunnel
no cus this is superficial sensory of median
35
key diagnostic tests for carpal tunnel
ultrasound | nerve conduction
36
key outcome measures for carpal tunnel
Boston carpel tunnel questionnaire UEFS
37
treatment for carpal tunnel
conservative or surgical
38
types of conservation management for carpal tunnel
``` splint meds trigger point release ultrasound TENS stretch exercise median nerve glide ```
39
is conservative or surgical better for carpal tunnel
surgery but if conservation is helping it, keep going
40
does physio help carpal tunnel short mid or long term
short n mid
41
cervical radiculopathy
UE pain and sensorimotor symptoms caused by compression of a nerve root
42
who gets cervical radiculopathy
those working in hospital and offices
43
etiology of cervical radiculopathy

44
risk factors for cervical radiculopathy
axial load bearing cigarette smoking prior lumbar radiculopathy
45
pathology of c6 radiculopathy
``` compression localized ischemia inflammatory cascade irritation of nerve sensitization and increased pain ```
46
clinical features of c6 radiculopathy
mm weakness in wrist ext, elbow flexion, pronation decrease UL reflexes impaired dermatomes
47
diagnostic tests for c6 radiculopathy
``` myotomes (elbow flexion, supination, wrist extension) Spurling Distraction dermatomes reflexes Hoffman sign ```
48
whats Hoffman sign show
UMN lesion
49
c6 does what
elbow flexion wrist extension supination
50
outcome measures for c6 radiculopathy
