To evaluate the short and long term effects of intra-articular injection of PRP on pain and functional status of the knee joint as measured by the Lysholm questionnaire and visual analogic pain scale (VAS).
In theory, extrinsic anterolateral acromial impingement of the rotator cuff can contribute to cuff tearing. Thus, acromioplasty may be performed concomitantly with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR). A review of recent randomized controlled trials confirms that patient long-term outcomes after ARCR is superior when acromioplasty is performed, when compared to no concomitant acromioplasty, while complication and retear rates are similar.
A shoulder sling keeps your arm against your body and prevents you from moving it too much. However, if you wear a shoulder sling the wrong way, you might slow healing or injure your arm more.
There's nothing worse for a runner than feeling motivated to hit the roads, but not being able to because of an injury. "Runner's knee" is a general term that encompasses a few different conditions that can cause knee pain from running. Although running shoes won't cure knee pain on their own, choosing the right pair is a must if you hope to alleviate or avoid knee pain and keep logging those miles.
Previously, researchers thought that hip bursitis was the primary cause of lateral or side hip pain. Now, experts know that greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a more accurate explanation. GTPS includes injury or wear and tear of the gluteal muscle tendons (tendinopathy), which may cause hip pain that worsens with movement.
