Do your parents, uncle, aunty, grandparents flop onto the chair as they sit?
Are they struggling to muster the strength to walk up one flight of stairs?
Are they too afraid to walk down stairs without assistance?
Are they always feeling unstable despite not having a neurological issue?
They are pretty likely at risk or already having sarcopenia and powerpenia..
Address it early and see them regain their independence to move. Any improvement is an improvement. Start early , start small.. they will thank you later.

Was advised to take this supplement, do this injection, then another injection, but when asked what is your exercise regime? Oh I don't do anything much, maybe some occasional walks..
No. That's not how knee OA should be managed. Exercise especially strength training (including mobility work) and simple pain management should be at the forefront. Loss of strength, loss of power and loss of muscle mass makes Knee OA worse, and people wonder why the miraculous supplements or topical rub or knee injections didn't do much.
I'm not saying those adjuncts don't help, they do, at the right time, with the right type of patient and most importantly when exercise has already been initiated. Not the other way around.
There are very selected reasons to do knee injections to manage pain in knee OA in the acute setting, but it has to be done by completely understanding the pros and cons to that injection by a qualified professional. The majority of the cases have mostly some aches and pains and more importantly very weak muscle and poor power production.
So, when possible. EXERCISE FIRST, MORE IMPORTANTLY STRENGTH TRAINING.

What is the difference between these 2 fractures?
They are both fractures of the lateral aspect of the knee, but do you know they mean different things when we see them on an X-ray
The first one is known as the Arcuate sign, named after the Arcuate ligament that is attached to the tip of the head of fibula. This avulsion is a sign of Posterolateral corner injury of the knee, which is commonly associated with the Posterior Cruciate Ligament Injury. This means that the PLC complex must be addressed during management to prevent significant instability of the knee.
The second is a Second Fracture. This is an avulsion fracture of the Anterolateral ligament which is often associated with an Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury. So when we see this x-ray, we have to make sure not to miss the ACL. Some surgeons will do a lateral tenodesis for this.

Having hip pain on the side? Unable to sleep on the side of your hip for long? Feels numb or burning like sensation?
There are many reasons for this, like greater trochanteric bursitis , glute muscle or tensor fascia lata issues. However, one thing that doesn't get diagnosed, is Iliohypogastric or lateral femoral cutaneous nerve compression.
Either one of these nerves can cause lateral hip pain.
And I see quite a bit of this in my clinic, brushed off as weak glutes in a person that is already working out a lot.
Don't forget nerves can cause pain too.
If you have any of these symptoms, do pay us a visit.

Rehab and Training/Exercise is a continuum.
Often rehab is a regressed version of what you would do when you are well.
Certain exercises may be rehab to one, but exercise or training to another.
For a previously bedridden person, bodyweight box squats is rehab. Box squats is also training when you practise westside but at a very different load.
Floor press is both rehab for someone injured and a form of training addressing the sticking point for someone that is well.
Leg extensions can be rehab if you only move from 90-45 degrees post ACL, but it's a form of training when you go full ROM full stack.
So often doctors and physios are involved during injury and trainers are involved when they are well. In rehab, we are also managing pain and things like swelling which is not done in training. Regardless athletes move from one end to the other at different points of their athletic career.
So all 3 parties are of great importance and different time points.
This also explains why when you are injured you don't just stop. You regress the activity, not stop all of it, with no proper reasoning.
If you are unsure of any of this, do visit us at Dr Triton Sports Medicine Clinic, as our doctor is a Trainer and a Sports Physician.

This patient came to me 6 weeks ago with a swollen Distal Right Achilles tendon and inflamed retrocalcaneal bursa. I did a steroid injection for the bursa and put him on a strict rehab protocol.
Today marks 6 weeks post rehab, he is showing fantastic improvement.
We started agility and plyometrics today to recondition the tendon.
Hopefully he will be back to shooting hoops soon.
