On today's podcast, I read my exchanges yesterday with my sister from her bomb shelter in Tel Aviv to give listeners a real-time sense of what it's like to be under rocket attack. And then we express our outrage at the liberal effort to blame Israel for the assault upon it before we take up the ouster of Liz Cheney from House leadership and what it portends about the Republican future and Donald Trump. Give a listen.

Proximal hamstring tendinopathy (PHT) occurs in athletes, runners, weightlifters, and other athletes, as well as more sedentary patients, causing pain at the hamstring origin and limiting your patients ability to sit, run and continue to be active.
There are a number of structures that can contribute to pain in this area, and in this podcast, Tom Goom and David Pope discuss how to clearly identify PHT and differentiate it from lumbar spine referred pain, hip pain, sciatic nerve pain and other conditions.
Tom recently released an article in JOSPT on Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy: clinical aspects of assessment and management with Peter Malliaras, Mike Reiman and Craig Purdam. We explore this article, and the research around PHT, and cover in detail:
	•	Subjective clues to guide you towards diagnosis
	•	Aggravating factors and 24 hour pain patterns
	•	Differential diagnosis
	•	Lumbar spine pain
	•	How the lumbar spine could contribute to development of PHT
	•	Hip pain
	•	SIJ pain
	•	Sciatic nerve pain
	•	Development of PHT
	•	Central sensitisation
	•	Diagnostic tests for PHT
	•	Hamstring tests
	•	Other assessment tests
	•	Functional tests
	•	The value of palpation
	•	Tests for involvement of the rest of the kinetic chain
	•	Running assessment/gait analysis
	•	Testing load tolerance
	•	Biopsychosocial aspects of tendon recovery
	•	Other advice for patients
	•	Whether stretching is helpful
	•	When your patient can return to running
	•	Cross training
	•	Does manual therapy have a role in the treatment of PHT?
	•	Starting treatment (Stage 1)
	•	When and how to progress rehabilitation (Stage 2)
	•	Further rehabilitation progressions (Stage 3)
	•	Advanced exercise progressions for high load sports
	•	Exercises you can incorporate during the various stages
	•	How long recovery will take

Physio Edge 046 Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy With Tom Goom

It’s a common trope that adult men don’t value friendship as much as their female counterparts, and that men really don’t need and want friends like women do. But my guest today argues that assumption is wrong and comes from viewing friendship from a strictly female point of view. In fact, based on his research, most adult men very much want good friends but just don’t know how to make them. What’s more, he says, male friendships look different from female ones and we should stop judging the quality of male friendships based on how women do relationships. 

My guest's name is Geoffrey Greif, and he’s a sociologist and author of the book "Buddy System: Understanding Male Friendships."

Today on the show, Geoffrey shares the common myths about male friendships, the benefits men get from having friends, and how male friendships are different from female friendships. He then discusses the four types of friends a man will have in his life, how friendship changes as men age, and how fathers have a huge influence on whether their sons will have friends as adults. Geoffrey then shares his research on how couples navigate friendships together and why some brothers are best friends, while others don't talk to each other for years.

Howard Stern - Rachel Maddow Interview - 3 28 2012

Seth is a physiotherapy lecturer at the University of Leicester with a special interest in calf & Achilles injuries, having completed his PhD on Achilles Tendinopathy. He joins us to answer some of these questions
·       What are the biggest risk factors for Achilles tendinopathy (AT)?
·       What would be your biggest bang-for-buck treatments for AT?
·       What would you say were the most useful markers for progression?
·       Where do you think people are going wrong in the treatment of AT in general – what are the most common misconceptions/mistakes?
·       How important is the role of the soleus in ankle/calf function, and sporting performance in general?
·       In terms of managing soleus injuries, what tips would you have for clinicians out there?

Talking Tendinopathies & Solving the Soleus Conundrum with Seth O’Neil. Episode #375

When your patient has heel pain with their first few steps in the morning, after sitting for a while or at the start of a run, a diagnosis of plantar heel pain (PHP) or plantar fasciopathy might jump straight to the top of your list. How will you treat your patients with PHP? How long will it take? How can you explain PHP, the rehab and recovery to your patients?

In this podcast with Henrik Riel (Physiotherapist, researcher and PhD candidate at Aalborg University) we take a deep dive into PHP, and how you can treat it, including:
- How to describe plantar heel pain to your patients
- How to explain to your patient why they developed PHP, recovery timeframes and rehab
- Plantar fasciitis, plantar fasciopathy, plantar heel pain? What's the most appropriate terminology?
- Differential diagnosis for PHP including neuropathic pain, fat pad irritation, contusion or atrophy, calcaneal stress fracture and other diagnoses
- How to systematically perform an objective assessment and diagnose PHP
- Assessment tests to identify factors contributing to your patients pain
- Whether your patients require imaging
- How long PHP takes to recover
- What factors affect your patients prognosis and recovery times
- How to differentiate your treatment for active or sedentary patients
- Whether your patients can continue to run with PHP
- Factors that may hinder the recovery of your sedentary patients, and how to address these
- Whether your patients should include stretching in their rehab
- Types of strengthening to include in your rehab - isometric, isotonic or otherwise
- How many sets and reps should your patients perform of their strengthening exercises
- Whether orthotics are useful
- Corticosteroid injections - do they help or increase the risk of plantar fascia rupture?
