is blog highlights signs and symptoms of common differential diagnoses in Achilles, and how ultrasound imaging can help. I ultrasound image every single Achilles that comes through, and it has taught me lots about how pathology and symptoms interact. Ultrasound can never MAKE a diagnosis, but is excellent for CONFIRMING many conditions that present similarly to Achilles tendinopathy.

Often I see Achilles injuries that have failed treatment, and incorrect diagnosis explains a considerable number of these, so it’s important to get the right diagnosis.

Obviously there are lots of other diagnoses that have not made it into the blog, such as as sural nerve irritation, apophysitis, distal soleus muscle-tendon injury, fascia crura tears, somatic or radicular referral from lumbar spine, etc.

Tendons contain bundles of fiber, which a type of tissue called endotenon surrounds. This tissue enables bundles of tendon fibers to move against one another, supporting body movement. Tendon injuries are relatively common, especially in people who play sports. An estimated 30–50% of sporting injuries involve tendon problems.

 quadratus lumborum muscle starts at the pelvis and runs up to the lowest rib. It plays an essential role in stabilizing the pelvis when a person is upright.

It also helps support the core of the body when breathing. The quadratus lumborum muscle is one of the primary sources of lower back pain.

Symptoms of quadratus lumborum pain include tightness and discomfort in the lower back region. The type and severity of the pain may vary.

Lower back pain is often described as a deep aching pain, but it may also be felt as sharp and acute, depending on the cause.

Although the discomfort often occurs at rest, it may become worse with movement. Walking, standing, and rolling over in bed may aggravate the pain.
 sharp pain may also be felt when sneezing or coughing. Quadratus lumborum pain can even interfere with doing everyday activities, such as walking and sitting.

Quadratus lumborum pain may also be chronic, which means it is long-lasting. Long-term pain often interferes with a person’s quality of life and well-being as well as affecting them physically.india

How a 70-30 Diet and Exercise Regime Really Works

70/30 rule essentially stands for 70% eating the right diet versus 30% exercise. Let’s face it- it’s not scientifically possible to eat everything you want and lose weight. Research also shows that people who exercise without changing their diet lose little or no weight. Sometimes, you may not lose weight even with the right diet and exercise. That’s because while working out, you develop muscle which is denser than fat.

For the first 30-40 minutes of exercise, our body burns calories and uses the body’s Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) or fat, to get energy which is usually stored in the body.

After about 40 minutes, the muscle-group on which the exercise is focused on starts to warm up so only that area burns fatter and builds on muscle. Fat loss happens through sweating. So the more you sweat, the more weight you lose.

It’s quite common to just think that the more you sweat, the faster you will lose weight. But as mentioned earlier, a large portion of it depends on the diet.
 

Muscles are broken in the gym, repaired in the kitchen and healed by sleeping. Post tailoring a custom-plan for you, we guide you on how to balance out fitness training, diet, and sleep. For each of these, we have some great options that you can try out.

What is foam rolling?

Foam rolling is a form of self-myofascial release (SMR) that is quickly becoming a popular method to use in situations with acute pain or injuries. It is often said that by using a foam roller, one can reduce the tension and pain in several areas of the body. While this may be beneficial, there are several mechanisms that may relate to a change in the sensation of pain.

Why foam rolling the low back is not advised?

Based on the previous informatiI, foam rolling the low back is not advised for a variety of reasons. First, most low back pain is caused by a mechanical deformation, such as an arch in the low back.

The diameter of the average foam roller is about 5” and most individuals cannot control the position of their low back while on this roller. In order to induce a muscle “release” the individual must identify a tender spot and then stop and hold pressure on this point. If one is tensing all of their trunk muscles and rolling quickly (as most people do) then a release cannot occur.

If an individual does as is taught and does try to relax then they essentially just lay across the roll and force even more of an arch in their low back along with applying excessive pressure on the lumbar spine and the discs that separate them. Therefore, this ultimately aggravates the mechanical position that caused the low back pain in the first place.

Second, if the low back pain is caused by non-mechanical factors (such as spondyloarthritis) then having the pressure of the foam roller directly on the spine could exacerbate the condition.
Third, areas the foam roll is used should have bony protection for organs. For example, when rolling the chest, there is no danger to the heart because the rib cage provides adequate protection. . In the low back, there are the kidneys and the liver, which have little to no bony protection (Newton, 1998). While they may be protected by large muscles, it is still considered an endangerment site, especially when using body weight compression across such a large object.

Not only can lower back pain get in the way of a good night’s rest, but poor sleeping posture may make the existing pain worse.

A poor sleeping position may even be the underlying cause of lower back pain. This is because certain positions can place unnecessary pressure on the neck, hips, and back.

It is important to maintain the natural curve of the spine when lying in bed. A person can do this by ensuring the head, shoulders, and hips are in alignment, and that the back is properly supported. The best way to do this is usually by sleeping on the back.

However, many people are uncomfortable sleeping on their back or find it causes them to snore. Everyone sleeps differently, so there is a variety of options for people who want to sleep better and reduce their back pain.
