【前十字韌帶撕裂】

#前十字韌帶撕裂 是一種常見的膝關節及運動創傷。前十字韌帶是膝關節內用作連接股骨與脛骨的韌帶,主要發揮維持膝關節穩定和防止膝蓋移位的功能,一旦撕裂或斷裂,膝蓋會失去支撐,變得不穩。

🤔 前十字韌帶為何會撕裂?
前十字韌帶撕裂的成因眾多,基本上任何會令膝關節過份扭曲或旋轉的激烈動作都有機會令前十字韌帶撕裂。無論是運動期間突然煞停、轉彎和持續跳躍的動作,抑或滑倒、車禍等令膝關節受壓的意外,也可能導致前十字韌帶受傷和撕裂。可見,前十字韌帶撕裂並不是運動員專屬的創傷。

😣 前十字韌帶撕裂會怎樣?
前十字韌帶撕裂的後果因人而異,輕則會令人稍微感到不適,重則膝蓋的功能嚴重受損。想避免嚴重傷患就應該及早採取預防措施,在日常好好護理膝關節。如不慎發生意外就應該盡快求醫,減低傷患惡化的機會。

Anterior cruciate ligament ( ) tear is a common knee injury that occurs when the ACL ruptures. The ACL is one of the major ligaments in the knee that helps stabilise the joint and prevent excessive movements of the knee. When an ACL is torn, the knee loses support from the ligaments and becomes unstable. This greatly affects the functions of the knee and limits movements of an individual.

🤔 What causes an ACL injury?
There are many reasons that can cause an ACL injury. Any action that forces the ACL to bend or rotate beyond its limit can tear the ACL. A sudden change in direction, improper landing or collision during sport activities can put excessive stress on the ACL, leading to possible ACL injury. It can also happen to people who experienced a slip and fall or a car accident, which directly exerts stress on the ACL.

😣 What happens when an ACL tears?
Impacts of an ACL tear varies depending on the severity of the injury, some may experience minor discomfort in the knee while some may have their physical functions being seriously affected. Hence it is important to take preventive measures proactively and to seek medical attention immediately if an injury occurs.

【足底筋膜炎】

走路時腳跟疼痛,而且越走越痛?有可能是 #足底筋膜炎 的徵兆!足底筋膜一組位於足底的厚實組織,主要用作支撐足弓,並在步行時發揮「避震功能」。當足部承受過多壓力時,就有機會導致足底筋膜發炎,令腳跟和足弓的位置會出現痛楚,長時間站立或走路更有機會令痛感加劇。

足底筋膜炎主要是由足底筋膜過勞(即長時間重複地受壓)引起,任何會增加腳跟和足弓負荷的活動或姿勢,都有機會令足底筋膜拉傷和撕裂,引致發炎。長時間站立、走路和跑步都是足底筋膜炎的常見成因。因此,工作期間需要長時間站立和行走的職業,例如:銷售員、侍應、教師、醫生、郵差等,都屬於較高危的族群。另外,肥胖、穿著承托力不足的鞋子、筋膜退化和失去彈性都有可能會加重足底筋膜的負荷,增加患上足底筋膜炎的風險。

Pain in the heel is stopping you from walking? It could be . Plantar fascia is a thick band of tissue running along the bottom of the foot that supports the arch of the foot and absorbs shock when walking. Plantar fasciitis occurs when the structure is inflamed, during which individuals may experience pain and tenderness in the bottom of the foot near the heel and the arch.

Plantar fasciitis is usuaully caused by an excessive and repetitive stress on the plantar fascia. Any activities or factors that put extra stress on the heel and arch can cause strain and tears in the plantar fascia, resulting in inflammation. Prolonged standing, walking and running are some of the major reasons leading to plantar fasciitis.
Therefore, individuals working as sales, waiters, teachers, physicians, delivery men, postmen, etc. are at higher risk of developing plantar fasciitis as their job requires long hours of standing and walking. Being overweight, wearing footwear with poor support, and degeneration (decreased elasticity) of the plantar fascia, are other risk factors associated with plantar fasciitis.

【大轉子疼痛綜合症】

#大轉子疼痛綜合症,又稱「 #大轉子滑囊炎」, 是一種常見出現於髖關節及大腿外側的痛症。有數據指出,每年每一千人就有 1.8 名患者受大轉子疼痛綜合症影響,當中有三分之二的患者會同時出現髖關節炎或下背痛的症狀。

髖部大轉子位於大腿骨(股骨)的頂部,主要作用是連接大腿肌腱及盆骨、固定髖關節和控制大腿的活動功能。髖部勞損和不良姿勢(例如蹺腳、駝背等)是導致大轉子疼痛綜合症的常見原因。當髖關節活動量增加或承受過多壓力時,有機會刺激到大轉子周邊的肌腱和滑囊,導致大轉子發炎和出現疼痛。痛症有可能一直從大腿外側延伸至膝蓋部份,而且可能隨著活動量增加、長時間側臥、坐下、站立或行走而變得更顯著。

其他與大轉子疼痛綜合症相關的風險因素包括:
(1)穿著不合適的鞋子(承托力不足)
(2)肥胖
(3)年齡介乎40-60歲
(4)女性

Greater trochanteric pain syndrome ( ), also known as trochanteric bursitis, is a condition characterised by the pain and tenderness on the outer hip or thigh. It is a common cause of lateral hip pain which affects 1.8 patients per 1000 annually, among which two thirds of them also experience hip joint osteoarthritis or low back pain.

The greater trochanter is located at the top of the thigh bone (femur). Its major function is to stabilise the hip joint and facilitate movement. Repetitive use of the hip and poor posture (e.g. sitting cross-legged, slouching, etc.) are the major contributing factors to GTPS. When too much strain was put on the hip joint and muscles, it can lead to inflammation or irritation of the tendons and bursae surrounding the greater trochanter which gives rise to the pain and discomfort in the outer hip area. The pain may radiate down the lateral thigh to the knee and symptoms may worsen with increased weight-bearing activities, side lying at night, and prolonged sitting, standing or walking.

Other risk factors associated with GTPS include: improper footwear (with insufficient support), being overweight, being middle-aged, and being a female.

Tennis Elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis, is a pain condition caused by the repetitive and excessive use of the forearm. As the name implies, tennis elbow is related to the repetitive motion of the forearm while playing tennis. It is also considered as an occupational hazard which is associated with jobs that require long hours of typing, using a mouse, lifting heavy objects, and gripping objects. Overusing the forearm causes swelling, tearing and inflammation of the tendons and muscles in the elbow.

Pain is the most obvious symptom of tennis elbow. The pain radiates down the forearm towards the wrist, causing discomfort, especially during night time. These symptoms usually resolve within 1-2 years with sufficient rest but it can also get worse over time if not managed carefully.

【肩周炎】

肩膀僵硬到無法舉高手臂?有可能是 #肩周炎 造成。肩周炎的正式學名為「 #肩沾黏性關節囊炎」,是由肩關節附近的肌肉及關節內組織發炎和纖維化引起,患者會出現肩痛、肩部僵硬、關節活動受限等症狀。

肩周炎好發於五十歲左右族群,所以又經常被稱為「 #五十肩」,患者以女性居多,而且不僅限於五十歲以上人士。肩周炎的確切成因不明,但有指與姿勢不良、肩膀受傷或勞損有關。

肩周炎主要可以分為三個階段:疼痛期、凍結期和解凍期,患者在各階段會出現不同的症狀。雖然肩周炎是一種自限性疾病,意思是症狀會隨時間消退,但康復時間可以長達四年,而且症狀在一定程度上會為患者的日常生活帶來不便,所以患者在有需要時也可以接受適切的治療以紓緩症狀,減低肩周炎帶來的影響。

As we age, our physical functions gradually decline, making us more fragile and prone to fall. In Hong Kong, it is estimated that 1 in 3 elderly aged 65 or above have a fall history. Injury caused by a fall contributes to 74.5% of all injury episodes. Decline in physical functions (e.g. poor balance, loss of vision, muscle weakness), environmental hazards (e.g. slippery floor, dimmed lighting, uneven surfaces) and side effects of medications are the common reasons leading to a fall.

are more than pain, wounds and bruises, and it can be fatal in some cases. People with a fall history may also lose confidence in themselves and avoid any sorts of outdoor activities because of their fear of falling. This further leads to the development of depressive and other mental health symptoms as they become socially isolated and lose independence in their daily life, resulting in a decline in quality of life and well-being of the individual. Indeed, individuals can take fall prevention measures proactively to prevent from any fatal injury caused by the accident.

今天(21/6)是 #全球漸凍人症日。2014年網路掀起了「冰桶挑戰」的風潮,該挑戰是由美國漸凍人協會發起的籌款活動,目的是為了籌集資金推動相關的醫學研究,同時提升各界對漸凍人症(即肌萎縮性側索硬化症)的關注。十年過去,不知道大家對漸凍人症的認知有多深呢?

#肌萎縮性側索硬化症,又稱「 #漸凍人症」,是一種罕見的神經系統退化疾病,主要影響患者的大腦和神經運作,導致全身肌肉萎縮。患者在發病初期會出現肌肉僵硬無力、口齒不清、吞咽困難和疲勞等症狀。隨著病情發展,患者會出現說話、進食和呼吸困難的情況,甚至死亡。最折磨患者的是,雖然他們失去了自主活動能力,卻仍然意識清醒。漸凍人症目前依然屬於不治之症,患者只能夠透過藥物、物理治療或使用其他儀器控制病情。

除了面對疾病帶來的痛苦,漸凍人症患者同時需要承擔龐大的醫療開支,可見這個突如其來的疾病會為患者帶來沉重的負擔。現時,香港有約3百多名漸凍人症患者,當中90%的案例與家族歷史無關,意味著任何人都有可能突然患上漸凍人症。讓我們藉著這個機會重新認識並關注這個罕見疾病吧!

#肌少症 是一種由老化引起,導致肌肉量及肌力減少的疾病。一般人的肌肉量大約在 30 - 40 歲左右開始下降,隨後每十年減少約 3% - 8% 肌肉。 #肌肉萎縮 不僅會影響患者的活動能力和平衡能力,也可能導致患者的身體功能受損、失去獨立生活能力,及增加 #跌倒 #骨折 的風險。 

在香港, 65 歲以上人口當中約有 9% 人士患有肌少症,患者人數預計會因為人口老化持續增加。

由於肌少症沒有明顯徵兆,多數只能在意外骨折後才能被診斷出來,為了減低患上肌少症的風險及避免由肌少症引起的意外,我們應該趁早積極採取不同的預防措施。

【骨質疏鬆症】

#骨質疏鬆症 顧名思義就是由骨質流失引致的疾病,骨質密度減少會令骨骼結構變得脆弱,增加骨折的風險。

骨質疏鬆症通常在 50 歲之後出現。隨著年紀增長,我們的骨質會自然流失,另外有不同因素都有機會加快骨質流失的速度,導致骨質疏鬆,例如:攝取量過少鈣、缺乏維他命D、家人曾患有骨質疏鬆症、飲食失調、身體質量指數(BMI)低於19、有吸煙和飲酒習慣、長期使用類固醇等,都有可能增加患上骨質疏鬆症的風險。

由於骨質疏鬆症沒有明顯的徵狀,多數患者都是在骨折後才確診患有骨質疏鬆症,所以骨質疏鬆症又被稱為「沉默的疾病」。

is a common chronic condition characterised by the loss of bone mass and density as a result of the loss of minerals stored in the bones. Decrease in bone mass causes the bone to lose strength, become weaker and more brittle, which leads to higher risks of fractures.

Osteoporosis usually develops after the age of 50 and is commonly found in the elderly population. As we age, our bone mass and bone mineral density naturally decline. However, some people lose bone density and strength faster than normal due to different reasons such as low calcium intake, Vitamin D deficiency,  a family history of osteoporosis, having an eating disorder, a Body Mass Index lower than 19, heavy smoking and drinking, prolonged use of steroids etc.

Osteoporosis is often considered a “silent disease” because it is hard to notice any symptoms until one experiences a fracture after a fall.

痛風曾經被稱為「富人病」,因為通常只有大魚大肉及好酒的達官貴人才會患上痛風,反映痛風是一種大多與飲食及生活習慣相關的疾病。事實上,食物中的「嘌呤」在代謝過程會產生尿酸,所以進食高「嘌呤」食物包括紅肉、內臟、海鮮、豆類、酒精、含糖飲料等,都有機會增加患病風險。

Gout is a type of arthritis caused by high uric acid level and deposition of urate acid crystals, causing inflammation in the joint. People with gout usually experience a sudden onset of severe pain and swelling in joints.

Historically, gout has been called the “rich-man’s disease” as it is associated with the overindulgence of food and drink. In fact, uric acid is formed during the breakdown of purine, a natural substance found in the body and in certain foods. Consuming urine-rich food including red meat, internal organs, seafood, beans, alcohol and sugary beverages can increase the risk of gout.
