SCOLIOSIS MID BACK PAIN

SCOLIOSIS MID BACK PAIN - Spinal deformity is an abnormal alignment or curve of the bony vertebral column. Adult scoliosis and kyphosis can be caused by age-related wear and tear on the back. Scoliosis is a side-to-side curvature of the spine that can develop in adults when their facet joints and discs begin to deteriorate. The facet joints give the spine flexibility, enabling us to twist, stretch, or curl up on the couch. When these joints deteriorate, the spine bones can tilt and begin to shift to one side. Symptoms include pain or stiffness in the mid-to-lower back, and numbness or weakness in the legs or feet. Scoliosis can cause shooting pain down the leg, an inability to stand up straight, and an inability to walk more than a short distance. Symptoms of severe, progressive scoliosis are similar to those of stenosis, but with visible spinal imbalance. This imbalance can result in strain on the hips and knees, the inability to walk a straight line, and falls.

JONES FRACTURE

Jones fracture - Jones fractures occur in a small area of the fifth metatarsal that receives less blood and is therefore more prone to difficulties in healing. A Jones fracture can be either a traumatic fracture or an acute break. They are caused by overuse, repetitive stress or trauma. They are less common and more difficult to treat than avulsion fractures. Other types of fractures can occur in the fifth metatarsal. It is also known as fifth metatarsal fracture. Athletes are commonly injured with Jones fracture and it can be caused by overuse and repetitive strain. The Jones fracture can be mistaken for a simple ankle sprain, but in fact, it is much more serious.

SYMPTOMS

• Pain, swelling and tenderness on the outside of the foot

• Difficulty walking

• Bruising

KNEE ARTHRITIS

A joint is a part of the body where two or more bones meet like in your knee. There is also a small bone at the front of the knee called the patella or kneecap. Patellofemoral arthritis occurs when the articular cartilage along the trochlear groove and on the underside of the patella wears down and becomes inflamed. When cartilage wears away, it becomes frayed and, when the wear is severe, the underlying bone may become exposed. The ends of our bones are covered in a smooth and slippery surface, known as cartilage. This allows the bones to move against each other without friction, and protects your joint from stress.

Everyone’s joints go through a normal cycle of damage and repair during their lifetime, but sometimes the body’s process to repair our joints can cause changes in their shape or structure. When these changes happen in one or more of your joints, it’s known as osteoarthritis.

WINGED SCAPULA

WINGED SCAPULA - The scapula (shoulder blade) is the largest bone of the shoulder complex and has the greatest number of muscles attached to it. These muscles both stabilise the arm to the body and move the arm around in space. All these muscles act at the same time sometimes and oppose each other at other times, but work together like a well trained team to allow the arm to move in space. If any of these muscles are not working in the right way at the right time this leads to a break in the rhythmic motion of the scapula. This is known as a scapula ' dysrhythmia '. This leads to apparent 'winging' of the scapula.
