All my opinions are my own. Dislikes evidence based ostriches ( An evidence based ostrich ignores evidence against, whilst waiting for evidence to support)
Don’t know what happened prior to this, differentials, fracture, internal damage (if he has taken a hit prior) no impact prior, then he just herniated a lumbar disc.
Apparently he took a hard hit to the right side, SoMe reports hip injury, but looks more like pelvic crest, lay man’s hip. I guess they gave him a local anaesthetic injection and sent him back out to play. “The magic training team”
OMG agism in action, why does the 60-64 image have a picture of an old man walking using a stick?
This 67 year old just walked for 3 hours up a ragged mountain path with two dogs.
I’m getting too old for this, but physiotherapists are not mechanics, humans are not machines, hence we do not have tools or tool kits to add to. Can we please abandon this metaphor?
We add knowledge and skills to our base line knowledge and skills, plain and simple.

Useful clinical tip.
If you suspect a patient may have developed a habitual limp post antalgic limping, simply ask them to walk backwards.
The habitual limper will walk normally the antalgic will still limp.
No one learns to limp backwards.
Took advantage of the Planet fitness free day pass offer on their app. Gonna do a few hour spinning 🚴♂️ to pass some time on my layover. Took the free bus from the airport to downtown Boston
If you ever wondered what a real intervertebral disc looked like. Tough robust, beautifully adapted joint. Welcome to my home dissection course 😂 this sucker is never slipping.
