🚨CHRONIC PAIN DUE TO TENDON DAMAGE🚨 🧠 Tendon health, key to movement and stability, is affected by various factors, including metabolism and underlying health conditions. Metabolic changes during inflammation, like shifts in tendon cell metabolism, increased pro-inflammatory cytokines, and hypoxia, exacerbate tendon inflammation. Important too are systemic health conditions such as age-related degeneration, obesity, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and metabolic syndrome, which can weaken tend

DEEP TENDON REFLEX TESTING FOR LUMBAR RADICULOPATHY To make our neurological examination of the lower limbs/umbosacrall spine complete we should always include reflex testing next to myotome and dermatome testing that we've shown in the last 2 days. Watch the video to learn how to test the most important reflexes in case of suspected lumbosacral radiculopathy! P.S. All of our videos including test description, statistical values and research articles can be found in our Assessment E-Book in this
