Impingement syndrome implies an actual mechanical abutment of the rotator cuff and the subacromial bursa against the coracoacromial ligament and acromion. This injury is caused from the force overload to the rotator cuff and bursa that occurs during the abduction, forward flexion, and medial rotation cycle of shoulder movements. In addition to injury to the supraspinatus tendon and subacromial bursa, the glenoid labrum and long head of the biceps brachii may also be injured.

What are the signs and symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome? What is the management for this condition?

The individual will report that pain wakes them in the middle of the night and is often relieved by "shaking out their hands." Pain, numbness, tingling, or a burning sensation may be felt only in the fingertips on the palmar aspect of the thumb, index, and middle finger. Generally, only one extremity is affected. Grip strength and pinch strength may be limited. A common complaint is difficulty manipulating coins. Symptoms are reproduced when direct compression is applied over the median nerve in the carpal tunnel for about 30 seconds. Although a positive Phalen maneuver and Tinel sign are classic clinical signs of the syndrome, diminished sensitivity to pain and weak thumb abduction are more predictive of abnormal nerve conduction. Individuals with suspected CTS should be referred to a physician for care. Immobilization in slight wrist extension with a dorsal splint is used to rest the wrist for up to 3 to 5 weeks, particularly at night when symptoms occur. An ice cup or ice bag, NSAIDs, or in some situations, diuretics, can initially reduce swelling and pain in the area caused by tenosynovitis. Use of a compression wrap should be avoided because this adds additional compression on the already impinged structures.

A gymnast missed the vault and fell to the mat on an outstretched arm, and sustained a visible posterior dislocation of the elbow. Explain immediate management of this injury.

In order to prevent unnecessary movement of the humerus, a rolled towel or thin pillow can be placed between the thoracic wall and humerus prior to applying a sling).
