Operating as usual
🤷♀️🤔 What’s Wrong Wednesday- Follow Up 🤔🤷♂️
❓Did you answer correctly⁉️ 🙋
🧐 Diagnosis ✍️…This patient sustained a glenohumeral joint (shoulder) dislocation where the ball pops out of the socket ☄️
✅ As the ball 🔘 is forced over the edge of the socket, the labrum and associated ligaments are torn 🔥 or damaged (called a Bankart tear), which can result in recurrent instability (shoulder continues
to slip out of place)
✅ Occasionally, the dislocation breaks of a piece of the front of the edge of the socket, known as a bony 🦴 Bankart
✅ In addition this patient also tore his rotator cuff, the tendon that attaches at the top of the ball to help lift the arm overhead 🏋️♀️
✅ Individually, each type of injury frequently requires, but the combination of both injuries necessitates surgery to allow for proper healing 🙏🏻 and restoration of function 🙌
🌟 Hope you enjoyed the case‼️

🧘♀️✨ #MeditationMonday
🌟Meditation was a foreign concept to me until about 5 years ago
I tried it after realizing many highly successful people in highly demanding careers found it incredibly useful to:
▪️ Gain a new perspective
▪️ Increase self awareness
▪️ Focus on the present
▪️ Harness the irrational internal voice
▪️ Employ rational thought over emotion
I started meditation with Headspace, a simple, effective app that teaches the basics of breath work 😮💨 and mindfulness 🧖.
I have also used the Waking Up app by Sam Harris which is a deeper dive into the mind and consciousness. Both are excellent methods to learn to calm the mind.
💫 If you’re still skeptical, check out the book and app 10% Happier (Ten Percent Happier) by Dan Harris (no relation), which is a great example of how meditation does not “make you soft” or remove your edge, but instead allows for a more lucid mind 🙏🏻 to attack the day❕

🤕 Today is World Mental Health Day.
Historically, mental health has been stigmatized and thus kept quiet. 🤫
Recently, the pervasiveness of mental health has become apparent on a global 🌎 level. Athletic giants like Michael Phelps, Simone Biles, Naomi Osaka, and many others have bravely crossed the boundary of vulnerability to demonstrate the reality and importance of mental health.
As a physician, whose profession is rife with stress as evidenced by high burnout rates 📈 and su***de rates twice that of the standard population, it has never been more apparent how important mental health is.
A few months ago clinical & sports psychologist, Dr. Bhrett McCabe, joined me on the Victory Over Injury Podcast. His words were so powerful and enlightening. Check out the link below to hear the highlights on mental health from that episode.
https://linktr.ee/mkrmd
Mental health affects every aspect of your life. Be an advocate for yourself and those around you to get the help and support necessary.

🤷♀️🤔 What’s Wrong Wednesday- Follow Up 🤔🤷♂️
❓Did you answer correctly⁉️ 🙋
🧐 Diagnosis ✍️…This patient sustained a distal humerus fracture 💪 🔥
✅ Arm wrestling places a large torque on the humerus as forced internal rotation is resisted 🤝 and opposed
✅ In this case the torque was greater than the bone 🦴 could resist, causing a spiral fracture 💥 of the distal humerus
✅ With displacement and angulation in an young active individual, surgical fixation was indicated
✅ This fracture was fixed with two plates ⚪️⚪️ and several screws 🔩🔩
✅ After healing, the patient returned back to full function and activity 💯🙌🙌
🌟 Hope you enjoyed the case‼️

📣 Check out one of my favorite 🙌 exam maneuvers for the hip 🦴
✅ Labral tears 💥 are common in the young active population with hip and groin🦵pain
✅ Labral tears result from bony impingement (FAI), dysplasia, or other bony 🦴 abnormalities
✅ To test for a labral tear, put the hip in a position of impingement by Flexing, ADducting, and
Internally Rotating (FADIR) the hip
➡️ A modification of this is more of a “scour” where the femoral head is rotated along the front arc of the socket
➡️ A ➕ positive test induces pain 🔥 that is consistent with the same pain the patient feels with activity

❓Did you answer correctly⁉️ 🙋
🧐 Diagnosis ✍️…This patient suffered a lateral meniscus tear 🦵🔥
✅ The unique part about this tear is that it was flipped and extruded (pushed out) laterally into the lateral gutter, causing pain 💥
✅ After freeing it, it was apparent that the large amount of meniscus tissue was more than is
normally seen, indicative of a discoid-type meniscus
✅ Due to the complex nature of the tear 🔥, and the discoid-type tissue, a partial meniscectomy was
performed, as suture repair would have failed due to inadequate blood supply to the central portion of the meniscus
✅ After the partial meniscectomy, a notable amount of normal meniscus tissue remained
✅ Once the patient regained his full quad 🏃♂️ strength he was cleared to return to football 🏈 🙌🙌🙌
🌟 Hope you enjoyed the case‼️

🌟 One of my favorite SLAP Tests' for the Overhead Throwing Athlete…⬆️
📽 Video courtesy of Kevin Wilk 👏
📣 This is called the Resisted Supination External Rotation Test (RSERT)...
➡️ Originally described by Myers TH, et al: Am J Sports Med. 2005;33(9):1315–20...
✅ This is one of the 3 SLAP 👋 tests typically utilized for the overhead 🙆 athlete who is exhibiting signs of a SLAP Lesion…
✅ Place the arm at 90 degrees of abduction & external rotation with forearm 💪 pronation - now resist supination, external rotation & elbow flexion… positive test would be reproduction of symptoms in the superior shoulder area!
⚡️⚡️Try this test - I think you'll find it beneficial.
