A wrist sprain occurs when the ligaments supporting the wrist are stretched or torn, often due to a fall or sudden impact. Gentle exercises can aid recovery by improving mobility, strength, and flexibility. Always start with light movements and progress gradually to avoid further strain. Introduction: A wrist sprain happens when the wrist’s ligaments rupture…
Introduction Dupuytren’s contracture is a condition in which the fascia (connective tissue) in the palm thickens and tightens, causing one or more fingers to bend toward the palm. It typically progresses slowly and can affect hand function over time. In the case of Dupuytren contracture, one or more fingers bend toward the palm. The fingers…
Introduction: The glenohumeral ligaments are a group of three ligaments (superior, middle, and inferior) that reinforce the shoulder joint, connecting the humerus to the glenoid cavity of the scapula. They provide stability by limiting excessive movement and preventing dislocation, particularly during shoulder rotation and abduction. They are also in charge of preventing the humerus bone…
The Lateral Collateral Ligament (LCL) is a key stabilizer of the knee joint, located on the outer side. It connects the femur (thigh bone) to the fibula (the smaller bone of the lower leg) and provides stability by preventing excessive side-to-side movement. Injuries to the LCL often occur due to direct impact or excessive stress…
