MOST COMMON CONDITIONS IN PHYSIOTHERAPY
NEUROLOGICAL SYSTEM
:red_flag:Multiple sclerosis
-
Symptoms
Multiple sclerosis causes many different symptoms, such as
-
-
:star: Tremor: during precise movements, hands or limbs
At the muscular level
:check: cramps, muscle weakness
-
:check: involuntary movements, stiff muscles
-
-
-
:red_flag: Parkinson's
-
Causes
-
:red_cross: Genetic factors, accelerated aging
-
Symptoms
:star: Trembling in the hands, arms, legs, jaw, and face
-
:star: Stiffness in the arms, legs, and trunk
-
-
-
-
:red_flag: Cerebral palsy
What is it ?
:check: Congenital disorder of movement, muscle tone, or posture
-
Causes
-
-
-
:no_entry: brain infections (encephalitis, meningitis, herpes simplex infections)
-
-
Treatment
-
Bobath method
-
-
-
-
:red_flag: Friedreich's ataxia
What is it ?
-
:check: It affects the spinal cord and the nerves that control the movements of the muscles of the arms and legs
-
Causes
-
:red_cross: The gene causes the body to make too much of a part of the DNA called the trinucleotide repeat (GAA)
-
MUSCULOSKETAL SYSTEM
:check: ARTHRITIS
-
Types
Caused by
Degeneration of parts of the joint such as cartilage, and worsens with age.
The progressive wear and tear of the affected parts of the joint can cause an inflammatory reaction.
- Rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
-
Provokes
Inflammation
This causes joint damage, especially cartilage.
Symptoms
-
-
-
-
- Decrease in the amplitude of the movement
Treatment
-
Physiotherapy and exercise can improve the range of movement and flexibility by improving bone and muscle strength.
Massage therapy, water therapy or orthopedic appliances.
:check: TENDONITIS
What is it?
- Inflammation of a tendon, the fibrous structure that unites the muscle with the bone.
- It can affect any tendon of the body.
Causes
-
-
- It can also occur due to the development of another pathology
-
-
Symptoms
- Pain and tenderness in tendon mobilization
- Intensification and increase of discomfort and pain with movement or carrying out any activity.
:check:MYASTHENIA GRAVIS
-
-
Symptoms
-
- Weakness in the arms or legs
- Difficulty in breathing, speaking, chewing or swallowing
Treatment
- Improve transmission between nerves and muscles and increase muscle strength.
- Improve muscle strength by eliminating the production of abnormal antibodies.
-
-
:check:MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY
What is it?
Heterogeneous group of genetic diseases that cause degeneration and weakness of the skeletal muscle.
-
-
:check: OSTEOPOROSIS
What is it?
- Decrease in bone mass density.
- Bones become more porous, increasing the number and size of the cells inside them.
- Bones are more fragile, less resistant to shocks and break more easily.
Causes
- Natural loss of bone mass.
-
-
-
- Inflammatory rheumatic diseases
-
-
Treatment
- Calcium-rich diets
-
-
-
CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM
:check: MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION }
-
causes
- Coronary artery obstruction
causes
-
-
-
Insulin resistance, obesity, or diabetes
-
-
-
-
- arrhythmias and heart failure.
- Contraction that narrows a coronary artery
-
- Risk factors such as hypertension
-
symptoms
- Severe pain and pressure in the chest
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
:check: HEART FAILURE
-
Symptoms
- Abnormal tiredness / fatigue
- Dry cough and wheezing (asthma or COPD)
- orthopnea Swelling of the belly / ankles (edema) due to fluid retention.
-
-
causes
cardiomyopathy
-
-
- congenital heart abnormalities.
-
-
-
:check: CEREBROVASCULAR DISEASES
Symptoms
- dizziness, loss of balance or coordination
-
- Difficulty speaking and vision
-
-
-
-
-
:check: ARRHYTHMIA
-
-
-
causes
-
-
-
- hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism
-
-
-
the physical therapist prevents, cures
and relieves heart problems physically
-
:check: HYPERTENSION
-
-
causes
-
-
-
-
-
- excessive alcohol consumption
-
-
:star: Treatment
-
-
Reduce your caloric, fat and salt intake.
Restriction of tobacco, alcohol and coffee.
-
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
-
:check: ASTHMA
-
-
-
-
:check: CYSTIC FIBROSIS
What is it ?

-
-
-
-
-
:check: PNEUMONIA
