| Question |
Answer |
| Pelvic Girdle | attaches the lower limbs to the axial skeleton at the hip joint |
| Pelvic Girdle | Called the bony pelvis or the pelvic girdle |
| Pelvic Girdle | Transmits the weight of the upper body to the lower limbs |
| Pelvic Girdle | Supports visceral organs of the pelvis |
| Hip bone/ Coxal | Formed by the fusion of the illium, ischium and pubic bone |
| Hip bone/ Coxal | Articulates with the head of the femur at the Acetabulum |
| Hip bone/ Coxal | It fuses anteriorly at the pubic symphysis |
| Hip bone/ Coxal | Forms the sacroiliac joint with the sacrum posteriorly |
| The Coxal bones, the sacrum, and the coccyx bones form | the bony pelvis |
| Sacrum | Forms the most inferior portion of the spine |
| Sacrum | Connects with the posterior illium creating the sacroiliac joint |
| Coccyx | Fused small vertebrae at the distal end of the scrum, “tailbone” |
| Anterior muscles | Flex the hip and extend the leg at the knee |
| Posterior muscles | Extend the hip and flex the leg at the knee |
| Adductor muscles | adduct the hip, close the leg |
| Abductor muscles | abduct the hip, open the leg |
| Rotators | Medially and laterally rotate the hip |
| Flexion | Bends a joint/brings bones closer together |
| Extension | Opens a joint/ straightens the joint |
| Adduction | brings the limb closer to the midline |
| Abduction | taking the limb away from midline |
| Medial &l Lateral Rotation | turning of a head or ball inside of the socket |
| Circumduction | Combination of flexion, extension, adduction, and abduction |
| Circumduction | creates a cone shaped movement/ only at the hip and shoulder |
| O – Origin | the anchor, where a muscle attaches to a bone that does not move |
| I – Insertion | where a muscle attaches to a bone that moves during contraction |
| A – Action | the movement caused by contraction of a muscle |
| P – Palpation | Where the muscle can be felt by touch |
| TrP- Trigger Point | pattern of trigger point referral |
| Iliolumbar | Located between transverse processes of L4-5 and the Iliac crest |
| Inguinal | Superficial band between the ASIS and pubic tubercle |
| Sacrotuberous | Between ischial tuberosity and edge of sacrum |
| Sacroiliac | superficial to sacroiliac joint |
| ASIS | Anterior Superior Iliac Spine |
| PSIS | Posterior Superior Iliac Spine |
| Pubis | Interior bones of the pelvis, connected by the pubis symphysis |
| Ischial Tuberosity | Inferior and posterior prominence of Ischium |
| Ischial Tuberosity | attachment site for hamstring muscles |
| Charley Horse | Muscle contusion with bleeding into the tissues |
| Charley Horse (Hematoma Formation) | Occurs with sever, prolonged pain |
| Charley Horse (Hematoma Formation) | Can take up to three weeks to heal |
| Charley Horse (Hematoma Formation) | Frequently experienced in contact sports |
| Muscle Strain | Involves muscle or tendon tearing |
| Muscle Strain | Usually results from athletes not warming up properly |
| Muscle Strain | Common in athletes who’s sport involves running/sprinting/jumping |
| Muscle Strain | takes 3-6 weeks to heal with proper treatment and rehabilitation |
| Ligament Sprain | Tears in the fibers of a ligament |
| Ligament Sprain | Can be mild to severe |
| Ligament Sprain | Severe sprains are also called ruptures |
| Rupture | complete tearing of the ligament fibers |
| Ligament Sprain | inflammation, redness, discoloration, heat, swelling and pain |
| Ligament Sprain | Not as common as muscle strains |
| Ligament Sprain | much more serious than a strain and take much longer to heal |
| Ligament Sprain | Heals in 8-12 weeks with proper treatment and rehabilitation |
