olecranon bursitis
|
|
Presentation:
-Swelling is often the first symptom. This causes pain . The swelling may grow large enough to restrict motion of the elbow. If the bursitis is infected, the skin becomes red and warm. Diagnosis: -An X-ray may be taken to look for a foreign body or a bone spur. Bone spurs are often found on the tip of the bone of the elbow in patients who repeatedly have elbow bursitis. Treatment Nonsurgical Treatment Infectious: aspirate fluid for C&S and start antibiotics Non-infectious : -elevate and ice. -NSAIDS -An elbow pad may be used to cushion the elbow but do not use direct pressure to the swollen elbow -If no improvement, aspirating and injecting corticosteroids is the next option Surgical Treatment -If bursitis does not improve with medications or by removing fluid from the elbow, surgery may be needed to remove the bursa |

- Inflammation involving the abductor pollicis longus and the extensor pollicis brevis; these tendons pass through a fibrous sheath at the radial styloid process.
Etiology - The usual cause is repetitive twisting of the wrist. It may occur in pregnancy, and it also occurs in mothers who hold their babies with the thumb outstretched. S/S - Pain on grasping with the thumb, such as with pinching. Swelling and tenderness are often present over the radial styloid process. Evaluation - The Finkelstein sign is positive, which is elicited by having the patient place the thumb in the palm and close the fingers over it. The wrist is then ulnarly deviated, resulting in pain over the involved tendon sheath in the area of the radial styloid. Treatment - initially splinting the wrist and an NSAID. If severe or refractory to conservative treatment, glucocorticoid injections can be very effective *Pain and inflammation over tendons of snuff box **Finkelstein’s Test |

osteomyelitis of distal phalanx
|
|
an infection usually from S. areus of the pulp space of the distal finger
-Septa run vertically between the skin and bone creating compartments within the pulp space - this is where the infection is. Presentation: -Patient complains of severe throbbing pain, tenderness, erythema, and swelling of the distal phalynx, with possible pus accumulations. The swelling won't go down because the pus is trapped, which means increased pressure and possible compromised blood flow which can lead to necrosis Evaluation: -No evaluation needed unless it's very severe or in immunocompromised patients. Management: -Incision and drainage: Use a central longitudinal incision that doesn't go past the DIP joint to drain completely. Pack the space, splint, and elevate. Give antibiotic coverage for staph and strep, and possible MRSA. Packing can be removed 1-2 days later. Recovery is fine if it is recognized early and treated promptly |

Slipped capital femoral epiphysis
|
|
fracture through the epiphyseal growth plate
-most common in young teenagers. boys > girls. -Rapid growth and an imbalance of hormones during adolescence may cause a slipped capital femoral epiphysis. -An injury or a rapid increase in body weight or height may trigger symptoms. Symptoms: -usually begin between 10 and 16 years of age.1 They may begin earlier in girls than in boys. -Hip tenderness and decreased movement during the early stages of the condition. -Increased pain when the toes are turned in toward midline (internal rotation of the hip). -Mild discomfort in the groin, thigh, or knee while walking or running. Rest relieves this discomfort. -Knee pain. Sometimes knee pain is the first symptom. -Stiffness and a limp, especially when tired. -Muscle spasms. -Mild to severe pain. Evaluation: -X-Ray -CT/MRI Management: Prevent further slippage, restore the normal position of the bones, and reduce complications of the condition. This often involves surgery to secure the growth plate (physis) with a single screw or with pins. Osteotomy may be used in a severe case, but this is rare. In an osteotomy, the doctor cuts the bone at the top of the leg near the hip joint, moves the bone to a more normal position, then uses metal pins to hold it in place. The pins are usually left in the bone after it heals. Crutches may be used to take weight off the hip. Before surgery this prevents further slippage and helps decrease pain. After surgery it decreases pain and helps keep the hip stable and in good position as it heals. A slipped capital femoral epiphysis may lead to early degenerative arthritis of the hip if not detected early and treated properly |
