The Physiology of Upper Limb Disorder and Back Pain
![Page 3: Fiona Evard Physiotherapist Moving and Handling Coordinator Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022033106/56649daf5503460f94a9cc15/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
People are at their best when
They do a wide range of variable motions and tasks.
BUT They are limited, wear out, and lose
accuracy quickly. Have a fixed physical design. Are highly affected by the environment

Physical Stress
Excessive loads and repetitive motions can cause problems

The Formula
REPETITION X FORCE X POSTURE

pain and discomfort

Muscle weakness

Numbness and tingling sensations

Limited range of motion

Common Work Related Musculoskeletal Disorders
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Epicondylitis and Bicipital Tendonitis Rotator Cuff Tendonitis Shoulder Capsulitis Impingement Syndrome Tenosynovitis Cervical Spondylosis Tension Neck
![Page 11: Fiona Evard Physiotherapist Moving and Handling Coordinator Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022033106/56649daf5503460f94a9cc15/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Painful Shoulder
Sternoclavicular joint Acromioclavicular joint Subacromial space Glenohumeral joint Scapulothoracic joint Rotator cuff muscles: supraspinatus,
infraspinatus, teres minor, subscapularis.
![Page 12: Fiona Evard Physiotherapist Moving and Handling Coordinator Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022033106/56649daf5503460f94a9cc15/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Causes of pain
Impingementpain between 60 and 120 degrees of abduction. Normal x rays
Rotator cuff tears,the result of chronic impingement. A scan will show the extent of the tear. Possible arthroscopic repair.
Frozen shoulderchronic inflammation with loss of range of movement. Recovery prolonged. Physio and medication
Calcific tendonitis.calcium salts deposited in tendons. Pain aggravated by movement. Injection or decompression
![Page 13: Fiona Evard Physiotherapist Moving and Handling Coordinator Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022033106/56649daf5503460f94a9cc15/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Hands and Wrists
Tendonitis: Tendons connect the powerful forearm muscles to your fingers.
When using the hand the tendons slide back and forth through a sleeve within the Carpal Tunnel
Repetition creates friction and pain
![Page 14: Fiona Evard Physiotherapist Moving and Handling Coordinator Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022033106/56649daf5503460f94a9cc15/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
The tunnel is small and creates a ‘bottleneck’
Excessive wrist movement creates a ‘kink’ in tunnel
Pain and inflammation result. A major nerve running through the
tunnel becomes compressed. Numbness, pain, pins and needles etc.

Epicondilitis or tennis elbow

Adverse Neural Tension
The position of the head creates pressure on the nerve root.
This can cause headache The nerve ‘tethers’ at the elbow. Its smooth movement is impinged. This results in a constant aching.
