Physical examination a thorough physical examination reveals much about the patient's health and general fitness. The physical part of the exam includes a review of the patient's medical and family history. Often laboratory tests such as complete blood count and urinalysis are ordered. The physical exam may include: •palpation (exam by touch) determines spinal abnormalities, areas of tenderness, and muscle spasm. •range of motion measures the degree to which a patient can perform movement of flexion, extension, lateral bending, and spinal rotation. •a neurologic evaluation assesses the patient's symptoms including pain, numbness, paresthesias (e.g. Tingling), extremity sensation and motor function, muscle spasm, weakness, and bowel/bladder changes. Particular attention may be given to the extremities. Either a ct scan or mri study may be required if there is evidence of neurologic dysfunction. Physical therapy which teaches the patient to strengthen the paravertebral and abdominal muscles which lend support to the spine. General exercises which help build flexibility, increase range of motion and strength. A corset or a brace could be used to provide support; cervical collars may be used to alleviate pain by restricting movement. Hot or cold packs on the affected area, ultrasound and electric stimulation are some of the other treatments which are used. Management of acute symptoms rest and support- with acute joint symptoms, a lumbar corset may be helpful to provide rest to inflamed facet joints. When acute symptoms decrease, discontinue corset by gradually increasing the time without the corset. Often the most comfortable position is flexion, esp. If there are neurologic signs due to decrease in the foraminal space from joint swelling or osteophytes. Education of posture- head, neck and shoulders should be supported by the back rest of chair with a small pillow in the lumbar spine, the feet supported and the arm resting on arm rests or on a pillow in the lap. Modalities- hot or cold packs on the affected area, ultrasound and electric stimulation are some of the other treatments which are used to decrease pain and reduce muscle spasm. Relaxation- by soft tissue techniques. Teach self relaxationtechniques, e.g like deep breathing exercises and physiological relaxation (laura mitchell method) and hydrotherapy. Traction- gentle intermittent joint distraction and gliding techniques may inhibit painful muscle responses and provide synovial fluid movement within the joint for healing. Gentle rom within the limits of pain. Management of subacute and chronic phase increase rom- free active exercises of lumbar spine. Pelvic tilting forward, backward in crook lying, quadriped, sitting and standing. Mobilization- restoration of intersegmental mobility by accessory pressure enables the patient to regain full functional painfree movement. Stretching exercises. Strengthening exercises.Posture correction.

Hello- the penile glans, known simply as the penis head, provides males with a hypersensitive area built for stimulation and pleasure. The glans purpose is to provide males pleasure, and similar to the clitoris, serves no other function. For uncircumcised males, the foreskin encasing the glan creates a higher level of sensitivity, while circumcised men experience a decrease in sensation because the foreskin cannot protect the skin. Most men blame their performance issues on anxiety or pleasure, two legitimate and viable excuses, but the glan of the penis creates the most common source of unexpected ejaculations. For circumcised men, the problem may not exist; for uncircumcised men, the issue can run rampant. Men can try natural supplements that numb the penis, but these products may or may not work for everyone. Instead, penile numbing creams can desensitize the nerves to improve endurance. Fortunately, it is curable.

It can be occur due to weakness of respiratory muscles. Please do the respiratory muscle strengthening exercise. Please do the shoulder mobility and strengthening exercise. Do’s and don’ts for shoulder pain do’s do the prescribed exercise regularly to maintain strength, flexibility and range of motion. Do keep the affected arm supported. Use an ice pack for pain relief. Apply the ice pack 3-4 times a day for 10 minutes. Don’ts don't sleep on the affected side. Don't lift heavyweight with the affected arm. Don't jerk your shoulder to avoid stress. Don't use the arm to push yourself up in bed or from a chair. Don't participate in contact sports or do any repetitive heavy lifting. We suggest you to wear shoulder support brace which is available in two different sizes which makes the patient to feel comfortable as it maintains the shoulder in anatomical position and the short lever is maintained. The reason to maintain the short lever in the shoulder joint is it helps the shoulder to prevent the movements which itself is the key to have better progression of healing in the shoulder region. This is suggested for the following conditions. This shoulder support brace what we are suggesting for you is available at our clinic. If you want you can buy from us, if you are far away from chennai we can send you by courier. The reason why we are conveying you to buy from us is we can demonstrate over the videocall (using whatsapp) and also we can monitor you throughout when to wear it and how long to wear it. And also if you find any difficulty wearing the brace you can also revert back to us for few more suggestions and we can propose you good solution how to go about it. Strenghtening exercises 1.pendulum stretch do this exercise first. Relax your shoulders. Stand and lean over slightly, allowing the affected arm to hang down. Swing the arm in a small circle — about a foot in diameter. Perform 10 revolutions in each direction, once a day. As your symptoms improve, increase the diameter of your swing, but never force it. When you're ready for more, increase the stretch by holding a light weight (three to five pounds) in the swinging arm. 2. Towel stretch hold one end of a three-foot-long towel behind your back and grab the opposite end with your other hand. Hold the towel in a horizontal position. Use your good arm to pull the affected arm upward to stretch it. You can also do an advanced version of this exercise with the towel draped over your good shoulder. Hold the bottom of the towel with the affected arm and pull it toward the lower back with the unaffected arm. Do this 10 to 20 times a day. 3. Finger walk face a wall three-quarters of an arm's length away. Reach out and touch the wall at waist level with the fingertips of the affected arm. With your elbow slightly bent, slowly walk your fingers up the wall, spider-like, until you've raised your arm as far as you comfortably can. Your fingers should be doing the work, not your shoulder muscles. Slowly lower the arm (with the help of the good arm, if necessary) and repeat. Perform this exercise 10 to 20 times a day. 4. Cross-body reachsit or stand. Use your good arm to lift your affected arm at the elbow, and bring it up and across your body, exerting gentle pressure to stretch the shoulder. Hold the stretch for 15 to 20 seconds. Do this 10 to 20 times per day. 5. Armpit stretch using your good arm, lift the affected arm onto a shelf about breast-high. Gently bend your knees, opening up the armpit. Deepen your knee bend slightly, gently stretching the armpit, and then straighten. With each knee bend, stretch a little further, but don't force it. Do this 10 to 20 times each day. Starting to strengthen as your range of motion improves, add rotator cuff–strengthening exercises. Be sure to warm up your shoulder and do your stretching exercises before you perform strengthening exercises. 6. Outward rotationhold a rubber exercise band between your hands with your elbows at a 90-degree angle close to your sides. Rotate the lower part of the affected arm outward two or three inches and hold for five seconds. Repeat 10 to 15 times, once a day. 7. Inward rotation stand next to a closed door, and hook one end of a rubber exercise band around the doorknob. Hold the other end with the hand of the affected arm, holding your elbow at a 90-degree angle. Pull the band toward your body two or three inches and hold for five seconds. Repeat 10 to 15 times, once a day. Shoulder exercises and stretches regular exercises and stretches can keep your shoulder strong and flexible. A few things to remember before swinging in to exercises: •stop any exercise if you have more shoulder pain. It may be too soon for you to try. •watch your form. Exercising incorrectly can also cause or worsen shoulder problems. •warm up, even before deep stretching. Light shoulder rolls, gentle movements, or even a warm shower are all ways to warm up your muscles before exercise and stretching. Pendulum stretch for range of motion•stand and bend at the waist. •let your arm on the injured side hang straight down. •keep your neck relaxed. •move your arm in a circle up to 20 times. •do once or more times in a day. Overhead shoulder stretch•sit or stand to do this shoulder stretch. •intertwine your fingers in front of you. •bend your elbows and raise your arms above your head. You can also place your hands on your head or behind it. •gently squeeze your shoulder blades together to move your elbows back. •continue for up to 20 repetitions. Repeat 5 to 10 times a day.

Hello- because the penis is an organ and contains no bone, we don't usually associate injuries with it. And, for the most part, trauma to the penis in its flaccid state is quite uncommon. However, an erect penis can easily fall victim to injury, and immediate care and treatment is necessary to restore it to its former healthy state. In addition to being absolutely necessary for sexual intercourse, the penis is a source of tremendous pleasure for men. When a man experiences pain in his penis, not only can it be uncomfortable and frustrating, it becomes disruptive to his sex life and jeopardizes the intimacy of his relationships.

Kindly do exercises that are listed below 2. Standing extension how it helps – this standing extension helps reverse what you do on a daily basis (hunching)… since most bulging discs and herniated discs are caused by poor posture and repeated flexion of the spine (esp bending fwd in bad posture), this stretch helps push the disc back to neutral position. How to do it – begin this exercise by standing up with good posture. Now take both hands and place them on both sides of your lower back. Now with the help of your hands push your pelvis forward and extend your spine back. Follow the extension with your neck so that you end up facing the ceiling. – start with 10 repetitions and do 2-3 sets. – this one is particularly great to do when you need a break from sitting at your desk. ** this should not cause any pain. If you feel pain during it is not a good one for you. In that case, stop and try some of the other exercises below instead. 3. Half cobra pose (prone lumbar extension) how it helps – the half cobra stretch helps to push the disc material back towards the center of the inter-vertebral disc to allow for improved healing. The goal of repeated lower back extension is the “centralization of symptoms”, which basically means pain that travels down the affected leg to the foot should come back up closer to the low back – which will in turn alleviate the pain. How to do it – begin this exercise by lying on your stomach (prone position) and slowly prop yourself up on your elbows while keeping your hips in contact with the floor. – hold the prop-up position for 10-15 seconds before returning to the prone position (lying face down). – gradually increase to holding the end position for 30 seconds. Aim for 10 repetitions of this stretch. ** initially, you may not be able to tolerate this position very well, so make sure you start slowly and carefully. If there’s any pain, try a different exercise instead. 4. Full cobra pose (advanced extension) how it helps – this stretch is based on the same principle as the half cobra pose above. This advanced extension helps to push disc material back towards the center of the intervertebral disc, with the goal of alleviating pain symptoms. How to do it – once you’ve mastered the half cobra pose, you can increase the difficulty by moving to the advanced version of this stretch. Begin this exercise by lying on your stomach in the prone position (lying facing down) and slowly press up on your hands while keeping your pelvis in contact with the floor and lower back relaxed. – hold the prop-up position for 10 seconds. Aim for 10 repetitions of this stretch. – eventually try to hold this pose for longer if it feels good (20-30 seconds). ** if you feel pain during this exercise, it is not a good one for you. In that case, stop and try some of the other exercises instead. 5. Cat-cow how it helps – this is one of the most popular herniated disc exercises. By combining two yoga poses, the cat-cow stretch can help to relieve pressure on the herniated disc by opening the intervertebral disc space. It also improves mobility of the spine, which may help to relieve disc herniation pain and speed recovery. How to do it – begin this stretch on your hands and knees. Inhale and let your stomach “drop” towards the floor as you look up towards the ceiling. – follow this by exhaling and slowly rounding your spine while pressing into the floor with your hands and slightly curving your neck to look at your feet. – aim for 10 repetitions of this stretch and do 2-3 sets. How it helps – this exercise will help strengthen and stabilize your lower back and deep spine muscles. This will help you to maintain a good posture and avoid future episodes of herniated discs. How to do it: – begin on your hands and knees with your hands positioned under your shoulders and knees positioned under your hips. – raise your left arm and reach it forwards until it is aligned with your torso; at the same time, kick your right leg backwards until is it aligned with your torso. – hold this position for 2-3 seconds before slowly returning to the starting position. – repeat with your right arm and left leg. – alternate sides for 10 repetitions and do 2-3 sets. ** ensure that your head, neck, and back maintain a neutral alignment to minimize stress on your neck. Plank: how it helps – just like the bird dog, this “core” exercise will help bring your pelvis into right position by strengthening the deep spinal muscles and glutes (butt muscles). How to do it – begin lying on your stomach with your forearms against the mat. – engage your core and lift your body so that you are resting on your forearms and toes. – start with 10 second holds and work up to 30 second holds, do 2-3 sets. ** ensure to keep your back straight throughout the entire exercise – spine in neutral position. Thoracic expansion if you’re using a chair, sit facing forward and allow your upper body to fall over the back of the chair. Extend your arms above your head for a deeper stretch. Hold either position for 10 seconds and release. Repeat 3 times. Can tight neck muscles cause vertigo. Your inner ear might not be the culprit. Vertigo is the technical name for dizziness, especially the type where it feels like the room, or the patient, is spinning. Theneck structures most likely to cause vertigo are a muscle called the sternocleidomastoid (scm for short) and the uppermost joints of the spine shin pain 1.Keep your legs elevated. 2.Use ice packs to reduce swelling. Shop for cold compresses. 3.Take an over-the-counter anti-inflammatory, such as ibuprofen (advil) or naproxen sodium (aleve). Shop for ibuprofen and naproxen sodium. 4.Wear elastic compression bandages. 5.Use a foam roller to massage your shins. Finger stretch 1.Place your hand palm-down on a table or other flat surface. 2.Gently straighten your fingers as flat as you can against the surface without forcing your joints. 3.Hold for 30 to 60 seconds and then release. 4.Repeat at least four times with each hand. Scapular dyskinesis technique #1: overhead wall rollout this is a great exercise for retraining scapulohumeral rhythm and activating the serratus anterior as well as integrating shoulder flexion with core stability. 1.Stand leaning against a wall with an ab-wheel in your hands 2.Protract your scapulae 3.Slowly roll the ab-wheel up the wall and ensure you’re shrugging your shoulders to elevate your scapulae as your arms rise up while keeping tension in your core to avoid lumbar extension 4.Roll back down slowly and with control and return to the initial position. 5.Breathe naturally throughout the movement scapular dyskinesis technique #2: supine serratus activator this activation technique will help reset your scapulae in the correct position, while reactivating the inhibited posterior muscles of your shoulder. 1.Lay on your back with legs bent, feet flat and arms by your side 2.Bend your elbows so your fingers are pointing up towards the sky with palms facing together 3.Drive your elbows into the ground to activate the lats and posterior deltoids without trying to pinch your scapulae together 4.Picture your chest opening and the medial border of the scapulae moving up into your body and hold for 5 seconds 5.Relax briefly and repeat.

Ent specialists can assist you with balance and ear problems, and you may suffer from postural hypotension, which causes you dizziness upon standing and other problems. Postural (orthostatic hypotension) can occur due to a number of factors, including dehydration, heart problems, endocrine disorders, nervous system disorders and many others. I suggest consulting your doctor with a complete history of your past health because this may be the result of a serious underlying disease. The problem is not a rare one, so there is a treatment for it, so don't worry about it.
