Document Summary

Elbow pathology and managmnet: elbow structure, muscular- moderate, ligament- moderate, skeletal- weak. The elbow will take the excess stress from the shoulder and wrist joints: olecranon bursitis, etiology: direct blow, signs and symptoms: pain, swelling, point tenderness swelling spontaneously without usual pain, management. Aspiration may be necessary: ulnar collateral ligament sprain, etiology- valgus force from repetitive trauma, pain along medial aspect: tenderness over mcl. High velocity pitcher= more injury ulc: of 9 pitchers who had elbow injuries, 4 had an elbow muscle strain and/or joint inflammation, and 5 had an ulnar collateral ligament sprain or tear. Disorders of growth: slow onset; flexion contracture, tight anterior joint capsule & weak triceps, locking or catching sensation, stop activity, throwing with good technique to prevent recurrence. Odds and ends: the unhappy triad, medial meniscus, mcl acl transverse humeral ligamentis tendon made up of extensions of the subscapularis and supraspinatus.
