A Case of Left Knee Pain i Question: Telma I have left knee pain. Could you tell me your approach to the evaluation and treatment of knee pain? I will illustrate my approach to evaluation and treatment with the following case study. My patient came in with left knee pain secondary to knee problems problems from his high school days and he reported that his knee pain was aggravated aggravated by running and skating. When I examined his knee, the pain was on the inner aspect of the knee joint. It was localized to around the joint line and around the knee cap or patella. We found that on examination, his hamstrings hamstrings were tight and his knee had good joint mobility, mobility, but he had a lot of tenderness tenderness on the Inside of the knee joint. ' I did a whole body evaluation evaluation and found that his head was shifted right on his neck. This predisposed his body weight to fall over his right leg, flattening the right arch of the foot. Henco, there was a twist put on the loft lower leg and a considerable strain on tho kneo because tho loft lower log now has to twist Internally Internally In ordor to coinpon- sato for tho body being tilted tilted to tho right. I did a trial troatmont that day with oloctrlcal acu- puncture to Ills right jaw, his loft anklo and Ills loft hamstring hamstring Insortlon, ojp We checked for active movements pre and post treatment. The active movement that we did was hip mobility, back mobility and neck mobility. All of these improved post treatment. treatment. The patient was also taught stretches and strengthening as part of his rehab program. Interestingly enough, his right arch reformed, it has noticeably improved and was not as flat immediately after the treatment. The approach that I use in evaluation and treatment treatment of injuries is called the G.A.M.E. plan and it stands for the Grant Approach to Musculoskeletal Evaluation and Treatment. I have developed it over a period of four years and it employs a whole body approach to evaluation. The purpose of evaluation evaluation Is to find out where movement In tho patient's body Is restricted. The lack of movomont contributes to other joints being subject to moro strain and it Is these joints and muscles that end up presenting symptoms, In evaluation wo are trying to find tho contributing contributing factors to tho patient's symptoms, so that Iroat- mont can bo usod moro to treat causes, ratlior than to moroly treat the symptoms.
