The brachioradialis is a muscle of the forearm that flexes the forearm at the elbow. [1] [2] It is also capable of both pronation and supination, depending on the position of the forearm. [2] It is attached to the distal styloid process of the radius by way of the brachioradialis tendon, and to the lateral supracondylar ridge of the humerus.
A biceps tendon rupture or bicep tear is a complete or partial rupture of a tendon of the biceps brachii muscle. It can affect any of the three biceps brachii tendons - the proximal tendon of the short head of the muscle belly, the proximal tendon of the long head of the muscle belly, or the distal tendon. The characteristic finding of a biceps ...
Nerve injury, especially of the median nerve and presenting as carpal tunnel syndrome, is commonly reported following distal radius fractures. Tendon injury can occur in people treated both nonoperatively and operatively, most commonly to the extensor pollicis longus tendon. This can be due to the tendon coming in contact with protruding bone ...
Biceps femoris muscle Biceps femoris tendon rupture can occur when the biceps femoris is injured in sports that require explosive bending of the knee as seen in sprinting . If the athlete is fatigued or has not warmed up properly he/she may suffer a hamstring strain/rupture, which is the tearing of the hamstring muscle.
Some may argue that the tension on muscle is most significant during the mid-range, practice bicep curl with a half range of motion to let muscle generate the most force. [ 4 ] The research found that the preacher curl targets the long head of the biceps significantly only when the arm was almost fully extended, and the range of motion was short.
Injuries often limit physical activity and result in immobilisation which is a significant factor in recovery. [16] [15] Symptoms vary from, numbness, tingling, atrophy and weakness which can ultimately lead to permanent damage and disability. [9] [2] Neural injury recovery in acute strokes are compensated with the help of medical drugs. [24]
The Galeazzi fracture is a fracture of the distal third of the radius with dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint.It classically involves an isolated fracture of the junction of the distal third and middle third of the radius with associated subluxation or dislocation of the distal radio-ulnar joint; the injury disrupts the forearm axis joint.
Muscles of the posterior forearm. All the labelled muscles (that is, all the visible muscles except the ones on the dorsal hand and one at top left) are innervated by the radial nerve, and represent all muscles innervated by the radial nerve except for the supinator. Muscular branches of the radial nerve: Triceps brachii; Anconeus; Brachioradialis
