Great Illustration showing the lateral and medial patellar ligaments 🦵🦵🦵

👉 Most of us will know the MPFL as the primary ligamentous restraint of the patella, providing 50–60% of the restraining force against lateral displacement. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22878653/

But as illustrated here, there are other important medial and lateral ligamentous structures as well:

👉 the patellofemoral ligaments (LPFL and MPFL),
👉 the lateral and medial patellomeniscal ligaments (LPML and MPML),
👉 and the lateral and medial patellotibial ligaments (LPTL and MPTL)

😳 See the difference between a 70-year old triathlete and a 74-year old sedentary man!⁠

🥩 The difference in fat, muscle tissue and bone size is extreme.⁠

身體每一個關節都可能有不穩情況，而最有效嘅處理方法必然係針對性運動康復治療。
所以準確診斷每一個症才是有效治本嘅要決！

臨床上處理不少椎間盤突出症， 絕大多數都有顯著進步｡

此研究提供箇中原因:椎間盤突出能夠自我修復...

😎 Disc protrusion completely resolves on its own!

👋🏻 Here's a case report of a 28 year old with severe back and leg pain

📸 MRI November 2018 showed “Large L4/5disc protrusion w severe cord narrowing/ crowding of cauda equina rootlets”....

🕒 7 months later and a new round of imaging

📸 MRI May 2019 showed reabsorption and now pain free! 😱

➡️ This is a great example of conservative Mx & ‘watch & wait’ approach. We don't know exactly what his treatment consisted of, but we know from the research that disc problems resolve on their own

📚 A meta-analysis (Zhong et al 2017) has shown that 2/3 of disc bulges spontaneously «heal» on their own! Many of them within a few months too, not years

See a summary of this paper here 👉 https://www.physio-network.com/blog/two-thirds-of-herniated-discs-resolve-on-their-own/

❌ This does not mean that no one should ever undergo surgery. Each patient must be managed on an individual basis

🙌🏻 Thanks to Dan Board for bringing this case to our attention.

TWO-THIRDS OF HERNIATED DISCS HEAL ON THEIR OWN! - RESULTS FROM A RECENT META-ANALYSIS

Too many people think that once you have a disc herniation (or disc bulge), that you’ve got it for life 😥

Well, a recent meta-analysis (Zhong et al., 2017) has shown that 2/3 of disc bulges spontaneously heal on their own! Many of them within a few months too. 😱

Conclusion from the paper: “Because the overall incidence of disc de-herniation is now 66.66% according to our results, conservative treatment may become the first choice of treatment for LDH.”

Even though discs sometimes herniate, this does NOT mean they 'slip'.

Jarod Hall has written a great blog on what actually does happen and how to deal with it.
