In most people, ligaments (which are the tissues that connect bones to each other) are naturally tight in such a way that the joints are restricted to 'normal' ranges of motion. This creates normal joint stability. If muscular control does not compensate for ligamentous laxity, joint instability may result.
The lines were first discovered in 1861 by Austrian anatomist Karl Langer (1819–1887), [1] [2] [3] though he cited the surgeon Baron Dupuytren as being the first to recognise the phenomenon. Langer punctured numerous holes at short distances from each other into the skin of a cadaver with a tool that had a circular-shaped tip, similar to an ...

They differ from Langer's lines in that unlike Langer's lines, which are defined in term of collagen orientation, Kraissl's lines are the lines of maximum skin tension. [1] Whereas Langer's lines were defined in cadavers, [2] Kraissl's lines have been defined in living individuals. Also, the method [which?] used to identify Kraissl's lines is ...
A physical therapist shares the benefits of dynamic stretches plus how to get started with simple stretches for warming up, for upper body, and for runners.
The symptoms (especially the stiffness and fasciculations) are most prominent in the calves, legs, trunk, and sometimes the face and neck, but can also affect other body parts. NMT symptoms may fluctuate in severity and frequency. Symptoms range from mere inconvenience to debilitating. At least a third of people also experience sensory symptoms.
Generally speaking, though, “once the platysma is clearly lax, loose, and wavy, adding toxin is not going to make those neck bands go away,” Jason Bloom, a board-certified facial plastic ...
Large areas of missing skin (such as large burns, grazes, and gouges) drastically reduce the area of skin causing it to become tight when pulled together during wound healing. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Scars initially lack elasticity with synthesis of elastic tissue fibres ( elastogenesis ) being a function of duration and site of the scar. [ 9 ]
