Evaluation of the motor system starts with observation for abnormal movements, assessment of muscle bulk and tone, and the screening muscle exam prior to the systematic evaluation of the muscle strength. The patient's history and the previous sections of the physical examination can provide the clin...
Grade 1 muscle strain:This is a mild strain with minimal impact on your muscle's strength or motion. Grade 2 muscle strain:While this is more serious than a grade 1 muscle strain, your muscle hasn't completely torn. Still, you'll have less strength and motion in that muscle, and maybe...

refers to the increase in the size or volume of muscle cells. It occurs when muscles undergo growth or enlargement, often in response to resistance training or other forms of exercise. This growth is typically associated with an increase in muscle strength and overall muscle mass. ...
Lack of muscle strength Fatigue Decreased flexibility How to diagnose muscle strain vs. muscle tear Muscle strains and tears are diagnosed with a physical exam. Your doctor may want to check you further using imaging technology like an MRI. An X-ray will be required only if your doctor suspect...
First, he or she will ask about the patient's medical history, then perform a physical exam to test muscle strength, and sometimes do a psychological evaluation. Additional tests will be ordered if needed. Complications of Muscle Weakness Muscle weakness due to a loss of muscle mass can lead...
Muscle strength is also an important factor for balance and mobility ability5–7. The TUGT is commonly used as a screening tool for fall risk in community-dwelling older adults. The longer time the TUGT takes, the lower the mobility of the participant, and the higher the risk of falls8,...
Because the supraspinatus muscle can initiate and complete ABduction of the arm, exam findings may be equivocal. One method to isolate the axillary nerve-supplied deltoid muscle function is to evaluate strength of ABduction with the humerus held in internal rotation. This position decreases the ...
