DOMS and muscle damage in the biceps brachii were subjectively and objectively evaluated using the visual analogue scale (VAS), upper arm circumference (CIR), and blood parameters (creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase [LDH], aldolase, and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine [8-OHdG]). Results In the ...
Avoid repetitive motions that stress your trapezius muscle.Any muscle or tendon is vulnerable to repetitive strain injury, which is damage caused by doing the same motion over and over. If you think your job or a favorite pastime is straining your trapezius muscle, you may need to alter your...
Much of the sports-related damage to the long thoracic nerve results from the continual stretching of the nerve. Gregg et al. (1979) demonstrated in the cadaver that the long thoracic nerve could actually be stretched to twice its normal length when the arm was raised and the head rotated ...
The supraspinatus muscle is a muscle that connects the shoulder blade to the bone of the upper arm. Damage to this muscle causes...
there are several surgery techniques to reattach the tendon to the bone. For example, your doctor might placesuturesin the torn tendon and secure it to the bone in your upper arm by making a hole or by putting anchors in the bone. But if the damage to the tendon is severe, you may ...
Direct mechanical compression, impairment of axonal transportation or of intrinsic blood supply to the nerve due to compressive forces (> 30 mmHg) can be responsible for nerve damage. Chronic mechanical external compression and repeated trauma (such as habitual leaning on the elbow) are common ...
This study investigated the hypothesis that muscle damage would be attenuated in muscles subjected to passive hyperthermia 1 day prior to exercise. Fifteen male students performed 24 maximal eccentric actions of the elbow flexors with one arm; the opposite arm performed the same exercise 2–4weeks ...
i have been having sudden pains in my right leg for over 4 years each doctor says something different i thought it was just gas or pain from constipation. recently i realized that i have also been have the pains or discomfort in my chest and left arm my doctor told me today that i wa...
one of the genes associated with the familial form of ALS, induces muscle atrophy, a significant reduction in muscle strength, mitochondrial dysfunction, microgliosis5 and neuronal degeneration9, thus suggesting that retrograde signals from muscle to nerve may contribute to synapse and axon damage. ...
