when a person's spine is shaped like an S
What is forward head?
head is pushed forward
What are some kinds of musculoskeletal injuries?
sport related injuries, occupational related injuries
How can you prevent MS injuries?
proper equipment, conditioning, body mechanics, and interventions
How do you treat MS injuries?
rest for 24-72 hours, ice on for 20 mins then 20 mins off 3-5 times per day, compress (reduce
swelling), elevate injury above the heart level
Patho for Parkinson's Disease

Clinical Manifestations of Parkinsons:
stooped posture, short shuffling steps, arms flexed at elbows and wrists, facial and lower limb
tremors, mask-like face, hips and knees slightly flexed, rigidity in spine, dyskinesia, chorea,
dystonia, "pill rolling", drooling, handwriting gets smaller, slurred speech, hard time swallowing
etc, echolalia (repeat words), autonomic dysfunction (involve body movement), orthostatic
hypotension, trouble sleeping, memory issues
