The muscles that encase the hip serve a crucial role in both joint stability and functional efficacy, and as developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) progresses, the surrounding musculature may undergo specific adaptations that reduce joint stability, thereby exacerbating dislocation. Yet, the exact ...
Yes, it is possible to pul a muscle in the thigh and surrounding region. It often accompanies a popping sensation, pain, and bruising. What are the posterior thigh muscles? The posterior thigh muscle group contains three muscles known as the biceps femoris, semimembranosus, and semitendinosus....
We used this model to propose a new method for representing the geometry of the skeletal muscles surrounding the hip joint and how they change their shape when the joint moves. We compared the muscle moment arms computed with our new approach against previous studies published in the biomechanical...
Quadriceps contusion:The most common quadriceps injury is a contusion (bruise). It happens when your thigh gets hit very hard, causing the quad muscle(s) to tear and bleed. As a result, the surrounding muscle gets inflamed. Severe quad contusions can make it very painful to extend the knee...
Skeletal muscles surrounding joints consist of agonist and antagonist muscles1. The agonists and antagonists generate joint torques in opposite directions. Simultaneous activation of these opposing muscles, termed muscle coactivation, is often observed during various movements, such as walking2,3,4. Yet...
M. obturatorius internus: This muscle also arises from the obturator membrane and the bone surrounding the obturator foramen, albeit at its ventral side. The insertion is at the medial side of the greater trochanter of the femur. • Mm. gemelli: The gemelli originate from the ischium. Their...
The tendon of the reflected head attaches in a groove above the superior rim of the acetabulum and the fibrous capsule of the hip joint. The reflected head may be absent. A 3rd head may be present, attaching to the iliofemoral ligament deeply, and superficially to the gluteus minimus t...

The confusion likely stems from confusion about the intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). Intra-abdominal pressure is the term describing that when you trap air in your lungs, and your guts and intestants in your abdomen, and tense the muscles surrounding all of this, you increase the pressure in...
Even a small muscular injury can lead to a chronic pain pattern which persists for months or even years, because the nervous “system stays on alert,” waiting for the scar tissue to heal completely and become aligned with the surrounding muscle tissue. ...
