Stingers or burners are a burning or stinging pain, often with some paraesthesia and occasionally weakness, often occurring in impact sports such as rugby or American football. When your patients present with neck and arm symptoms, how can you differentiate a stinger or burner from a C/sp fracture, discogenic symptoms or nerve root compression, which all require very different treatment? How should you manage patients with one-off or repeated stingers or burners? Find out in this podcast with Jo Gibson (Upper Limb Rehabilitation Specialist Physio).

Posterior shoulder instability can occur after a fall onto an outstretched arm, or diving and hitting the ground with your arm (like diving to score a try in rugby), injuring the posterior labrum and/or the glenohumeral joint. Unlike anterior shoulder instability, patients with posterior shoulder instability may not have have a feeling of instability, but may just experience pain, fatigue and weakness. How can you identify posterior shoulder instability in your shoulder pain patients? What does your rehab for posterior shoulder instability need to include?

How to help patients have a positive response to your treatment, experiencing better movement, function or pain with exercise and movement. How to encourage your patient to share their narrative and perspective, so you can start addressing this with your treatment. How to accurately describe OA to your patients and provide a positive narrative. How to help patients recognise load and lifestyle factors that are influencing their pain and movement. How to modify patients’ unhelpful behaviours and integrate new movement strategies into daily activities. How to manage flareups and provide patients with self-management strategies.

Traumatic superior labrum anterior to posterior (SLAP) tears can occur in contact athletes and other patients that land on their arm or shoulder, and in throwers and other athletes. Initial assessment and even MRI often miss or misdiagnose these injuries, leading to ongoing shoulder, long head of biceps tendon (LHBT) or ACJ pain. In this podcast with Jo Gibson (Upper Limb Rehabilitation Specialist Physio) you’ll discover how to identify patients with SLAP tears. You’ll explore which assessment tests can be used to diagnose and differentiate SLAP tears from other causes of shoulder pain, and which imaging modalities will actually identify SLAP tears.
