Understanding the Causes of Knee Pain on the Outer (Lateral) Part of Your Knee
An injury or arthritis most likely causes pain outside the knee. A doctor can determine the cause based on your other symptoms and the results of imaging tests.
Normal Hip Range of Motion
Range of motion (ROM) is a measurement of the distance and direction a joint can move to its full potential. Hip ROM is dictated by the ball-and-socket hip joint, which is made up of the femur (thighbone) and pelvis. They fit together in a way that allows for fluid, repeated motion—and a fair amount of wear and tear—but the joint isn’t indestructible.
How to identify and treat inner knee pain
The inner or medial knee refers to the part closest to the other knee. Injuries and arthritis are two possible causes of inner knee pain. Treatment options depend on the cause and include warm or cold packs, exercise, and medication.
Factors associated with poor hip flexion range of motion after total hip arthroplasty in patients with ankylosing spondylitis: a retrospective study on 538 consecutive hips
This study aimed to report the mid-term functional outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) for the treatment of advanced hip involvement in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and identify the factors associated with poor hip flexion range of motion (ROM) after THA in patients with AS.
Advances in perioperative pain management for total knee arthroplasty: a review of multimodal analgesic approaches
Despite significant advancements in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), managing postoperative pain remains a substantial clinical challenge. With advances in surgical techniques and pharmacology, TKA perioperative analgesic strategies continue to evolve, necessitating ongoing reassessment of current data.
