A volleyball player has come into the training room after falling on an outstretched arm at practice and hyperextending her elbo
w. she now has generalized elbow pain. what evaluation procedures would you use to determine capsular pain after this hyperextension injury at the elbow?
A capsular restriction is a limitation usually followed by immobilization. The word capsule is a tough membrane enclosing a body part. In this case, the volleyball player is having an elbow pain and with passive movement, a full range of motion exercises must be done in all directions to evaluate the capsular pain. A midrange movement may not have findings thus the examiner must take a closer look at the pattern of restriction. There will be some patterns in the joint if it is the one affected.It might be a combination of joint reaction with spasm leading to capsular constriction.
Active transport uses energy molecules to move particles like sodium, against their concentration gradients, from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration.
The mass of an object is a measure of the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. Mass does not change with gravity as weight does due to the act of pulling down on an object making it in fact heavier.
