We recently ran an engaging member mentoring session with Senior Physio Educator Clare Walsh (Specialist Sports & Exercise Physiotherapist, FACP) and David Pope (APA Titled Musculoskeletal & Sports and Exercise Physiotherapist).
In this informative Q&A, Clare and David answer Clinical Edge member questions on:
- Should ice be used in acute injuries? What the latest research reveals about using ice and whether your patients should use it.
- Medial sided knee pain, including Pes anserine pain - how to assess and diagnose it.
- Hip and groin pain - how to assess, treat and prevent it.
- Should acute MCL and LCL injuries be braced?
- How are PCL injuries treated?
- How to treat adolescent injuries with a focus on calcaneal apophysitis (Sever’s disease).
- Clare and David’s favourite Olympic sports to watch.
