A torn meniscus is one of the most common knee injuries. Any activity that causes you to forcefully twist or rotate your knee, especially when putting the pressure of your full weight on it, can lead to a torn meniscus. Each of your knees has two menisci — C-shaped pieces of cartilage that act like a cushion between your shinbone and your thighbone. A torn meniscus causes pain, swelling and stiffness. You also might have trouble extending your knee fully. Conservative treatment — such as rest, ice and medication — is sometimes enough to relieve the pain of a torn meniscus and give the injury time to heal on its own. In other cases, however, a torn meniscus requires surgical repair.

This patient presented to the ER for umbilical pain and had a history of umbilical hernia. He was concerned about the possibility of incarceration of the hernia.

In this video we explain how the clinical exam helps to differentiate a simple painful hernia from an incarcerated one.

Types of multiple myeloma. Multiple myeloma is the most common type of plasma cell cancer. The bones and bone marrow are the main sites where myeloma cells (abnormal plasma cells) are produced. The myeloma cells can form tumours, called plasmacytomas, in many bones in the body.

Urinary incontinence — the loss of bladder control — is a common and often embarrassing problem. The severity ranges from occasionally leaking urine when you cough or sneeze to having an urge to urinate that's so sudden and strong you don't get to a toilet in time. If urinary incontinence affects your daily activities, don't hesitate to see your doctor. For most people, simple lifestyle changes or medical treatment can ease discomfort or stop urinary incontinence

Examination of Peripheral Vascular System - Clinical Skills OSCE Revision - Dr Gill

In this video, we demonstrate the peripheral vascular examination - a less common examination, but still vitally important, particularly amongst the older population

Starting with the examination of the hands looking for clinical signs of vascular compromise, we then check the pulses of the major arteries of the upper body - the radial, brachial and carotid arteries, before moving down to assess for an abdominal aortic aneurysm.

At this point, I feel it's a practical step to check the femoral pulses before doing the overview of the legs.

After visually assessing we must examine the major vascular areas of leg.- namely the popliteal pulses, before wrapping up around the ankle with the posterior tibial and dorsalis pedis pulses

For completeness, the cardiovascular examination is demonstrated here

Bloating And Gas, Flatulence Remedy Ginger, Get Rid Of Gas And Bloating, Involuntary Flatulence--- http://flatulence-cure.plus101.com --- 7 tips on Flatulence Treatment and help you get rid of flatulence forever. 1. Flatulence is such a broad term, with so many connected and side issues, that it is rather short sighted to refer to it simply as "farting" - which so many people do. Certainly, the breaking of wind is the key identifier for flatulence. However, to merely concentrate on the noise and the smell of flatulence is to miss out on the important facts that govern its causes, its symptoms and its remedies. Picking the right flatulence treatment means needing to concentrate on the type of flatulence you have, the health issues surrounding it and the general health situation of the sufferer. 2. Be Realistic in Your Flatulence Treatment If the definition of flatulence was simply that you had wind a few times a day and occasionally broke wind in embarrassing situations, then flatulence treatment really would not be that much of a priority. However, the truth of the matter is that excessive flatulence will affect more than just social situations. It is thankfully uncommon enough to suffer from painful stomach flatulence, but that is not to say that it is something you should ever ignore. Your digestive system is vitally important for your health, and if problems arise then they need to be addressed with the right flatulence treatment. 3. When you are suffering from flatulence problems, you need to identify why it is a problem and what the problem can be traced back to. We all have flatulence every so often, most of us having wind at least once a day and usually more often. Getting rid of the gases that our system generates when digesting food is essential, as is finding a kind flatulence treatment - otherwise we would soon become quite unwell. It is how often you release those gases and how they are released that matters more than anything. The last thing you want is to have occasional, sporadic flatulence that hurts, smells foul or is particularly audible. 4. Gas is a by-product of digestion, and if you are not breaking wind at all then there is probably a problem. Excessive flatulence means that you are producing too much gas when digesting food, and means that your digestive system is not functioning as it should be. 5. Painful flatulence occurs when you are digesting the food badly, because the stomach is failing to break it down as smoothly as it should. It is not that uncommon to feel, perhaps, a little bit of burning flatulence - this can happen after too much spicy food - but if it is becoming the norm then it is something that needs to be addressed with the right flatulence treatments. 6. Keep A Note For Best Flatulence Treatment Results 7. By identifying which foods are connected with which problems, you can begin the right flatulence treatment. It is better to do this, and deal with the problem before it grows rather than trying to cure a bigger problem. Would you like to cure your gas problems and bloating today!

Medications are the most proven, effective way to treat gout symptoms. However, making certain lifestyle changes also may help, such as: Limiting alcoholic beverages and drinks sweetened with fruit sugar (fructose). Instead, drink plenty of nonalcoholic beverages, especially water. Limit intake of foods high in purines, such as red meat, organ meats and seafood. Exercising regularly and losing weight. Keeping your body at a healthy weight reduces your risk of gout.

An inguinal hernia occurs when tissue, such as part of the intestine, protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscles. The resulting bulge can be painful, especially when you cough, bend over or lift a heavy object. However, many hernias do not cause pain.

An inguinal hernia isn't necessarily dangerous. It doesn't improve on its own, however, and can lead to life-threatening complications. Your doctor is likely to recommend surgery to fix an inguinal hernia that's painful or enlarging. Inguinal hernia repair is a common surgical procedure.

This 3D medical animation depicts the surgical removal of the appendix (appendectomy) using laparoscopic instruments. The surgery animation begins by showing an inflamed appendix (appendicitis), followed by the placement of the laparoscope. Afterward, one can see the surgical device staple, cut and remove the inflamed appendix. Following the removal of the appendix the abdomen is flushed with a sterile saline solution to ensure all traces of infection have been removed.

A penile prosthesis is another treatment option for men with erectile dysfunction (ED). These devices are either malleable or inflatable. The simplest type of prosthesis consists of a pair of malleable (bendable) rods surgically implanted within the erection chambers of the penis. With this type of implant the penis is always semi-rigid and merely needs to be lifted or adjusted into the erect position to initiate sex. Today, many men choose a hydraulic, inflatable prosthesis, which allows a man to have an erection whenever he chooses and is much easier to conceal. It is also more natural.
