- Anatomy of the Knee Joint - Basic Clinical Anatomy Revision - Dr Gill
Anatomy was probably my weakest subject in medical school, the reason being it is one long list of lumps bumps and insertion points.
Essentially anatomy in this fashion to me is little more than just rote learning. Thankfully clinical anatomy makes much more sense to me. Looking at how a joint moves, why it is shaped as it is, how the tendons have evolved to insert in their particular locations, and crucially have a joint becomes injured and how it develops pathology
This is the first video of our anatomy series the feedback is always welcome.
There are two additional videos supplement this, that being the original knee examination demonstration video,
• Knee Examination - Ho...
and knee examination clinical deep dive explaining what it is it is being looked for each step of the examination
• Knee Examination - Ort...

You can now consult via video or in person with Dr Gill at Dr Finlay’s Private Practice - www.drfinlays.co.uk/services/...
Proof that even the most mundane subject, when executed brilliantly and told with a wonderful accent, can be highly entertaining.
I think I know an anatomy department who wouldn’t describe body bits as mundane 🤣🤣
But I understand the point - thank you for the compliment 😊
Dr Gill, first of all I'm a huge fan of your vids. I'm not a doctor or a medical student, I'm an illustrator and a good study of anatomy is a real deal for what I do, so I wanted to know if you're planning to do more anatomical explanation videos (for bones and muscles too maybe) of the various parts of the body. Thanks in advance, I really love your channel!
That's the plan - they take more work than the normal clinical skills videos, but hopefully so yes 😊
Any particular areas that would help you?
@@DrJamesGill I'd find really interesting to explore a bit deeper the shoulder articulation ( the relationship between the scapula and the humerus in terms of structure and motion) and the hip!
I guess these videos take more work for you and thus I would really like to thank you for your kindness and professionalism!
These videos take considerably more work, but I think it will be worth it in the end.
Although that said, the view count is much less :/
@@DrJamesGill Actually I don't know why the view count should be much less, I found this one about the knee really well explained and interesting, but I understand!
By the way I'll be waiting, I'm sure it will be super worth and hopefully of interests of the majority of the community! And in the meantime, always thumbs up for all your work! ;)
@@DrJamesGill I think it could be due to the section of your viewer-base that is drawn to this channel after originally viewing your thyroid and cranial nerve examination videos. It seems that your other examination videos tend to have a higher view count; perhaps that's the reason?
As someone who has had bad knees most of their life, this video explained a whole lot. So informative.
Came for the ASMR - stayed for the learning.
😁❤️
glad it was useful - but seriously - I love this joint!
Took an arrow?
@@DrJamesGill Us
Hey James, I spent my masters studying the biomechanics of the knee, focussing on cartilage especially. I really enjoyed this video and I love it when People realise the knee is such a complex joint away from the "thigh and shin combining". So much more complexed and so much more interesting than people think! Keep it up!
Having watched more of this video I would like to add that I started playing rugby at a young age. I sustained damage to the lateral meniscus the the cartilage in my right knee at the age of 19 which brought me to cartilage biomechanics. I really appreciate the information portrayed in this video and would heavily emphasise (as a 110kg rugby player) that weight is a massive player on the forces in the knee!
Weight can be a huge contributing factor for injury if biomechanics are off
@@DrJamesGill does using a rowing machine damage the knees???
You’re like the David Attenborough of the medical world. Very interesting video, thoroughly enjoyed as always 😁👌
Hello Dr. Gill! I love your content for its ASMR quality as well as the knowledge you impart on us, thank you for your work!!
I would really appreciate it if you made more of these, they are so interesting!
These videos are absolutely amazing and such a pleasure to watch. Thank you Dr. Gill. (Watching those rubber bands torsion and stretch and bend and friction + the graphic footage kept me at the edge of the seat all the way this time, though :D).
Glad you like them! I wasn't sure if the injury was a little too far!
I have an OSCE station on knee or elbow pain in a few hours and I can't sleep through nerves. This popped up out of nowhere and I'm so glad it did. I feel so much better thank you!
This is just what I kneeded! 😉
Har har
😉
I suffer from all kinds of knee issues, Hoffa's syndrome, osgood-schlatter disease and start of arthritis I find this extremely helpful and informative! So that's 👍
Just wanted to say how much I love your videos. I find them both incredibly relaxing and very informative. On a personal level I would absolutely love it if you could perhaps cover certain chronic skin conditions, like eczema, in a future video.
I’ll certainly try to look at that. They would be very image heavy, which causes issues for copyright
@@DrJamesGill Understood and thank you for your reply. Keep up the great work, Dr Gill. 🙂
Really helped me understood my Dr's knee examination mechanics thank youu!!!
Glad it helped!
As a baseball player and catcher for 13 years this answered a lot of questions I had. Thank you very much for an informative video
👍 glad it was useful 😊
I cannot express how soothing your voice is to me. It helps me reduce my anxiety and sleep better
A win is always a win 😊
Glad you found something useful
wow, this was super informative. i learnt a lot more from this video than i did from my doctor after i tore my meniscus. and you explain it in such a calm and collected manner, its wonderful. i wish more doctors shared this kind of enthusiasm
Thank you Dr Gill for all the amazing content. The way you are able to translate relevant clinical knowledge in an easily understandable manner is truly commendable and has made this channel an invaluable resource for medical students around the world.
thank you so much for that feedback - any suggestions as to how we can improve?
@@DrJamesGill honestly, just keep doing what you're doing! You content is really useful as it is delivered mainly from a GP Perspective so the level of detail is ideal for a medical students level of understanding. I really enjoy the videos tailored towards more practical, osce-style knowledge as this can be very difficult to learn from textbooks, websites etc. Consultation skills videos would be very useful as well e.g. breaking bad news, medication counselling etc. Hope that helps 🙂
I think we may have to do some of those style videos.
Already been asked about breaking bad news et.
This video is really cool to me because I’ve dislocated my knee twice and one of those was in a car accident so I have learned a lot of helpful information in this 🙏🙏🙏
Ouch!! Dislocations are NOT fun. Hopefully no long term issues
This is fascinating Dr Gill. My mobility isn't as great as it was due to my knees, so this giving me possible questions to ask my own GP
I’m sorry to hear that. Do you have a diagnosis as to the problem with your knees?
Unfortunately not diagnosis has never been given, I did develop gout (allupurinol was given for that) I've wondered if it was possibly that without knowing that started in the knees and worked it's way down
I have a tibial plateau fracture and this video has really helped me understand what that means (beyond pain).
Dr. James Gill, great video, thanks
Thank you very much dr Gill.
Really enjoyed that video James. Keep them coming! :)
👍 I think we’ll either look at the hip or should next
I think this video does an extra good job of showing me why I was not destined to be a Doctor and you were.
Although I find the information interesting and entertaining I can see a certain spark of excitement as you talk about the knee that would be missing from me. Now if we want to talk about Mortgages I suspect the Patella would be on the other knee.
You get excited about mortgages?? Oh well. I’d imagine public health and epidemiology would have been your calling on the medical idea of things 😊
@@DrJamesGill I genuinely do get excited about mortgages when i know I can help someones situation and better their financial future.
Everyone has their own specialty in this world even those of us who Specializing in knowing a little about a lot of things.
In a different life I could see myself being an epidemiologist haha
Ruptured my patellar tendon 10 mts ago and just love hearing/learning about knee anatomy ever since. Thank you. Would love to hear more about patellar tendinopothy or other conditions that would cause a tendon like this to rupture.
I’m sorry to hear that. The patella tendon is a SERIOUSLY strong bit of kit.
How did you damage it?
@@DrJamesGill I was about to do a layup playing basketball. And *pop it went as I loaded.
@@DrJamesGill hi dr agile. I’d like to second the other gentleman above. I’d love to see a video on the patella tendon and all the complications that go with damage to it. I had a motorcycle accident many years ago and I damaged my knee where the bone at the knee was exposed. It was mind blowingly painful. It took me years really to get back to a decent level of exercise usage. One of the interesting side effects of the damage was some wastage of the outer quad muscle. Really has reduced my squatting capacity in the gym. Also, the tendon is to this day tender pretty much all the time. Can’t run as it feels like the tendon is on fire when I do. If you could do a pierce on this tendon and the others around it I would appreciate it greatly.
I dislocated my kneecap back in high school, and it’s why I’ve had a fear of working my legs out for a while….this video is SO helpful in helping me understanding the joint so that I can carefully do leg workouts
I’m glad it’s helpful. A dislocated knee cap is not a minor issue
Great video, Dr. Gill. Very informative. May I suggest a similar video on information over the upper extremity (shoulder, arms, hands). This would help tremendously. Thank you for your video content!
I'm trying to cover all of the major joints with three videos, the demo, the deep dive, and then the anatomy
Awesome! Thank you so much!
That clip in the middle, immediately made this a non asmr video lol.. great video none the less
OMG!! He explains so well!!
Thank you！
Mia
An interesting video. I never was interested in anatomy, but Dr. Gill makes explains everything with such clarity. My only problem is that I have a bad knee and for much of the video my knee had sympathy pain, whenever he manipulated the model. Of course, it didn't help that I had to walk up 10 flights of stairs tonight (elevator is on the fritz again). I already had some discomfort, watching the video made me even more aware of this.
TRAIN YOUR HAMMIES IT HELPED WITH KNEE PAIN
For some reason this made me hungry for chicken wings, anyways thanks for another great vid doc!
hahahaha
Informative and sonorous as always, wish my Netter Anatomy could match any of that energy 😆
I LOVE netters - it's just beautiful!!
you’re voice is so soothing
So been watching your videos for a few weeks now and they've made me gain so much more interest in the human body's mechanics..
but because you've done this video I'm wondering if there are plans to do videos on Ankles/feet and wrist/hands in the same way as this one.
Since I have ankle/feet issues and have gained some wrist issue recently I just wanna learn a but more about them and what I can do to reduce the pain.
Ty for the amazing videos
Yup. I’ve the plastic foot model down stairs I
That graphic warning saved my life!
I just like hearing my knee pop when I stretch it. Such a satisfying sound lmao.
Great information and interesting
👍
What’s poppin’, out here vertebrae shopping. Brand new spine, got options!
"Your knees should not wear out"
Baseball catchers: "Damn, we've been scammed"
should not wear out... when used for routine activities - eg running, walking - pretty sure the flexion and extension of a catcher isn't routine use
Nice one doc 👌👌
I thought from a quick look at the thumbnail, it was a big caramel Sunday. Man, I think will eat some Dairy Queen tomorrow!
Hi Dr. Gill! Amazing video as always. I have slight hyper mobility in my knees and my right knee has always gave me grief as a kid. Various examinations say I have strong knees and haven’t done any cartilage damage, it’s the ligaments (specially inner ligaments) surrounding the knee that are weaker. What can I do to strengthen them? What usually causes this? Thank you!!
I’d speak to a physio. They would be best placed to advise strengthening exercises that wouldn’t cause other issues
This video helps me understand a bit more about my hsuabnds recent knee injury. My husband tore his acl in half and the lcl,pcl,bicep femoris ligamentare completely in half/detached. All three of the tendons/ligaments on the side of the knee . He has to have a cadaver part put in anchored to his fibula bone,because his own tendons are so far blown up that they cant use them. Then a whole new acl put in.
Gosh. That sounds a major injury, what happened?
How is he doing?
It is from what we've been told.He's doing okay. Just waiting for surgery. He was just running on a lightly damp grass field. Hit a spot of mud,slid and caught a hole or a patch of grass. His foot caught and his knee either went completely backwards or sideways/outward >.
Fantastic video, sir. Out of curiosity, and apologies if you have answered this before, but my knees always crunch when I climb stairs. It's not painful but just wondering what that is?
Fascinating. What causes quite dramatically audible crunching sounds of the knee during movement particularly walking upstairs? I’m nearly 50 and have knee pain in one knee when I walk long distances and put a lot of weight on the knee. Physio has given me exercises. The crunching is alarming though.
I thought the thumbnail was a vanilla ice cream cone with hot caramel being poured over it hahaha
Public health advice - don’t go licking ligaments
I was curious enough to click, and studious enough to stay
Sounds good on both counts 😊
Great video, now I know just how bad it was when I tore my ACL, MCL, and patella tendon.
Interesting that with that list LCL wasn’t affected too
Was it a blow from the outside? What was the injury?
@@DrJamesGill I was playing football (American) and turned one way then quickly turned the other and it snapped.
Great video Dr. Gill! But I actually have a question involving how nature intended us to use our knees. You mentioned in the video that people who kneel a lot will have a negative impact on their knee potentially. My question however is in sitting cross legged. Is kneeling specifically bad because of the pressure or the prolonged bending of the knee or both? And will this also apply to sitting cross legged? Thank you in advance and keep up the amazing work!
Potentially so, as theoretically you could get long term stretching of ligaments
More likely the crossed legs will affect the hip having a negative impact on the knee
jeeez you have a magical voice
im not studying medicine or anything related but this is really interesting
Hey James, great video! I have a question about the leg/knee, The other day my right leg locked as soon as I sat down and couldn't straighten it myself so I had to get someone to grab my leg and slowly straighten it out and then my leg spasmed or jerked and I was fine. Im wondering if you have any information or idea as to what causes a leg to lock into place. I am 23 years old and I am very active if that helps, thanks. Keep up the good work!
Needs to be examined
I had an ACL Reconstruction a few years ago, and since not doing as much exercise as I should my Quads and Hamstrings have gone extremely tight.
What would you recommend in order to get the quad stretched as I cant do the standard one atm due to hamstring tightness.
I broke my tibia when I was 15 my god that was the worst pain ever I was in plaster for about 4 months lucky it healed and have no problems 😊
Ouch. That is a strong bone. How did you do that?
@@DrJamesGill play fighting with friends are legs got tangled up and we fell I heard it break I tryed to get up and my leg went the other way it was very painful the rest was a blur they put me in plaster cast straight away the doctor or surgeon said because it was set with the cast soon as I arrived he didn't want to operate on it that's why I was in a cast for so long it was hard no Internet back in the day 🙃 and when I finally had it removed I needed a lot of physio on my leg it looked like a toothpick compared to my other leg 🦵 thankfully I don't have any issues with it now only if its very cold it can ache a bit . Oh yeh it was a girl I was fighting with I forgot to say 🤣🤣
One word
Ouch!
Really cool.
👍
Going to do one on plantar fasciitis next
Wow, I've done four bad things to my knees ---
Over extension,
Rotation with the foot immobile (concealed hole in the weeds),
Extended job related kneeling -- for decades,
Traumatic injury due to spills riding motorcycles.
It's a wonder I can still walk.
At least I've not had a rupture of the patella, as seen in the graphic footage.
Yes, that at a video that really sticks in the mind!
Hello. Great video. I started running Again lately, and I feel like I pushed myself too Much.
I m a bit overweight, and now, for Every steps i take, I have pain medial side of the meniscus. It wasnt immediat. It came progressively in like a week
I am a bit afraid...i want to workout again..
Listen to your body. If you are having joint issues I suggest chat with a physio re your training.
Also Conosider things like biking and swimming whilst starting off to spread the load
Thanks.
You're welcome
Hello James I am recovering from an injury where is fractured my patella.
I have had surgery on the patella. Also some cartilage was damaged.
I think it was the hyaline articular cartilage on my femur.
(The injury was cliff jumping I hit a rock upon entry feet first, knee skimmed a rock pushed my patella up and also smashed at the same time.)
I was told today by a friend to take collagen and glucosamine supplements , would these be of any benefit?
Interested to hear…
Otherwise I am keeping well post surgery last week, I feel much better and seem to be healing great 👍
Many thanks James, love your videos !
wish you could tell me why my knee randomly locks up while walking and then has a numbing pop before returning to normal after a few mins. my hip does a similar thing every so often
That most certainly needs to be seen by your doctor, they may need to order some tests
I have extreme pain right on the tibial tuberosity from playing sports but do adults get osgoods also?
I assume that issues like flat feet/fallen arches can also impact knee alignment and health? I know when I bend mine, they pull inward rather than remaining in line with my feet. In a case like that, would physio for the knee or the outside musculature of the foot and leg help? Or will you not see much difference unless you properly align the foot with something like orthotics?
very much so - we discuss this exact point in the Knee Deep Dive examination
Hey so about four years ago I fell walking back from the gas station, ripped a huge chunk out of my knee, and left a blood trail walking home. The pain is aggravated by running and lifting weights (especially squatting). It really hurts when I push into my knee cap, and pull up. For reference, there's no swelling either. Do you have any ideas of what may be wrong?
Can you add to the affects of pvns in the knee joint?
I am having trouble with in the back of my left knee mostly when I wake up and try to lift my foot off the ground.
Please do and ankle on of these please i popped my ankle in october and it still hurts and cracks
I have a question. I’m not a med student but just curious. Can you chip of a part of the patella in an injury and would that leave permanent damage? I have a memory from my childhood when I sat in a toy car and rode down a hill. I flipped over the car and hit me knee against a rock. From what I remember it bled a lot and even had a small hole right where the patella is. It wasn’t too deep but it definitely wasn’t just a surface scratch as I couldn’t really move my knee. The weird part is that I am the only one in my family who remembers the incident.
this is how a knee should look like. Meanwhile mine is all fucked up
What happened?
@@DrJamesGill well my knee cap is too small which leads to increased movement and wears down the meniscus in my left knee. Additionally the knee cap sits in a slight angle which doesn’t help either. But going to the gym helps a lot
Any knee exercises we can do to prevent sports injury or from heavy weighted squats / compound movements?
Have a look at kneesovertoesguy on youtube
Don't do sports. Subscribe for more tips !
Not that I’m aware of, as the issue there is overloading the joint
I’d suggest discussing with a sports physio, and have someone review your form
Hi James, I have had pain in my left knee from around 2018 and still have. I have pain under the kneecap. It hurts when I walk and recently when I straighten my leg. Do you think it could be what you talked about at around 16:40? I am not a sports guy, for the most part I sit by my computer, but I do walk quite alot. I did an MRI scan before it started hurt when I straighten my leg, but it did not show anything wrong with it.
Worth while getting assessed. The problem with the MRI, if the problem had not occurred
Then it might not be visible
You’re the ASMR version of Dr. Julian Bashir from Deep Space 9!
🤣🤣 I’m pretty sure he knew (knows) more - not sure if the future tense for someone who have “seen” but would not be born for hundred of years
@@DrJamesGill If you know the difference between preganglionic fiber and postganglionic nerve then I think you take it.
Alamaraine!
I think I damaged pretty much every part of that impressive model of knee structures one way or another over the course of my life, mainly because of trying to bowl as fast as I could for 20 years. I escaped an operation somehow, probably because I decided to retire at 35. And that was not because of my increasingly deteriorating knees, but because I ripped both calf muscles within 12 months of each other. And once your legs go, you're finished.
The thing that "cured" my knee problems? Walking - lots of it (as the good doctor mentioned here). Amazing really.
But it did not cure my calf muscles. I tried playing for a veterans side a few years ago, long after I'd quit.
My training went really well for about 12 months and I even started to bowl off a decent run up. Things looked good for the tour and my knees felt great. But then, one evening in the nets, I felt the familiar instability bubbling and popping in my right calf muscle - but I carried on into the delivery stride anyway (stupidly) - and it gave way completely. I could barely walk for a week.
That was the second - and final - retirement. I think I was a little bit grief-stricken for a while, but that's ageing for you.
Rites of passage!
Rabbiting on...sorry.
This is a really wonderful video (that's actually all I wanted to say!)
Hi there i experience knee pain when i walk too much and after playing basketball and when i jump i feel a lose long thing in my right knee and when i land i feel pain but not that painful is it advisable to do isometrics and my moms is very concerned about my knee and she want it to be checked up and laslty i feel a slight weight in my knee when im going to stand sorry for my grammar im not that very good
Can we damage our knee with lunges and squats? I was wondering if those popular exercises are “inappropriate” use of the knee since they involve a lot of bending.
I tore my popliteus muscle like 7 years ago, and my doctor told me I didn’t need to get it fixed, but it still hurts like heck when I hike or run too much. Kinda sucks :/
What happens if your knee has a clicking sound moving it forward and backwards
I’d suggest talking to your GP and getting the knee assessed
I have a broken foot, so I'm watching this to see how much I'm screwing up my knees by crawling around the house & limping with a cane outside
I broke my anterior cruciate ligament playing football and when I went to the operating room, the doctor saw that it wasn't completely broken. I had an epidural anaesthesia so I could see everything and talk to the doctor. Apparently what happened is that the ACL is not only one ligament but two threads in a spiral or something like that, and I broke only one of them. Talking to the doctor in the theatre we decided to go for a cleaning (remove the thread that was hanging and repair a crack in the meniscus) since I'm not a professional athlete and that's it. But it was very interesting to see how the knee was inside! Since then, I've had my knee slightly dislocated once doing ice skating but it was a matter of doing some exercises and it was fine after a week 😅
Ouch, that doesn't sound good. It does reinforce the point about things not being quite the same after injury though
- do you still see physio?
@@DrJamesGill Yes, clearly my right knee is not the same since then (if I do certain movements it could dislocate easily) but it's because probably I should do more exercises. The doctor told me that I needed to reinforce the muscles in order not to rely on the ligaments too much to maintain the knee in place. But of course, I don't 🙈. In any case, it has been 20 years since that and I haven't noticed that it has affected me too much. So I'm lucky in that sense.
I don't do physio but I know the exercises I need to do when something is not right and I need to strengthen the muscles 🙈. I'm not the best patient, I know 😅. Thank you for the amazing videos! 😄
Dr Gill, I’m over weight and I suffer with my right knee hurting. Wouldn’t my weight affect both knees and not just the one or could there possibly be any other problems?
we are not symmetrical creatures, small changes in the kinetic chain may put more pressure on one side than the other.
but I’d strongly recommend seeing your doctor to check the cause
Dr. Gill, I served in the US Navy for 5 years, 4 of those years on an aircraft carrier. Over time, whether carrying boxes or just commuting throughout the ship, to acend or decend we had to go up very steep ladders. In which case when I would go down said ladders, I would carry weight or just myself. My right knee, just below the joint and to the left, would hurt so much, like a sharp burning pain where my knee felt like it would give out. Why does it hurt like that and now that I'm out, will it be something I might need to worry about later and get checked now? Love your content Dr. Gill
I’d certainly get it checked. Biomechanics should never be ignored 😊
Would it be a muscle tear or sprain?
I couldn’t hazard a comment without examining
Is it true that cordizone (forgive me if I spelt that wrong) is actually bad for your knees because it deteriorates the cartilage?
That’s true. The IDEAL number of steroid injections you want is zero. But, view it like wooden door that has swollen when wet - you don’t REALLY want to trim the wood to make the door fit again - but it will solve the problem
You might find there is a draft later on in the year though. It’s a balance
@@DrJamesGill that's interesting. Thank you, I was wondering cuz I know someone who had knee problems and they received those injections and now the pain is worse on certain days
Gold titanium alloy is the most abrasion resistant alloy known to man…. Maybe line the artificial knee with that. I believe the coeff of friction is very low as well
“
Researchers at Rice University (Houston) have discovered a titanium-gold (TiAu3) alloy that is harder than most steels and may be an optimal choice for use in orthopedic joint replacement surgery”
Been lifting for years and I've never seen someone doing that exercise, no wonder it ripped off.
yes it looked weird, but clinically very useful for teaching!
I’m sorry but the reason I clicked on the video is because it looked like someone was pouring caramel all over an ice cream cone in the thumbnail cool channel btw
This will make stealing knees much more efficient
i woke up at 5:00 and thought he was holding a rubber chicken :p
Doc: today we're going to talk about the kNee
Me: 😴💤
My knee itches under the skin rn, send help please
My fat ass thought he was holding vanilla ice cream covered in caramel suace 💀💀💀
❤️❤️❤️
😊
I have bad knees, almost exclusively dislocated patella's on both legs. It happens completely at random times. Its almost like there's a certain spot or angle that triggers it to go where the good lord didn't put it. I went to a Dr when I was younger and he said outside of physical therapy there was nothing I could do. I wonder if that's still true.
The question I’d ask would be why did the dislocation happen in the first place?
Any issues with connective tissues in the family?
@@DrJamesGill I'm 41 and it first happened in Jr high playing basketball. All of my brother have had knee issues also, mostly acl/mcl tears so I guess I got lucky.
My son is asking about how we can move . I can show him this 🙂 hopefully it will help
That sounds excellent.
We’ll also be doing the hip in a few weeks 😊
@@DrJamesGill awesome 😎 he's 6.5 years old very curious on how things work and move 🙂
Sounds like a budding biologist 😊
I used to love the “Blood, Bones and Body Bits” books at that age !
@@DrJamesGill Wonder if I could still find them he loves to read
Yup. Just taken a look, they are on Amazon
I fell on two 3 inch masonry nails. They where in a block of wood to they where standing up. Both went right into the side of my right knee. I haven't been able to run for over 20 years.
It hurt like a son of a b!tc#.
I’m sure it did. What did the orthopaedic team say?
@@DrJamesGill Wasn't taken to the hospital. All I got was a bandage and buck up kid. I was 7 by the way.
As a former competitive cross country mountain bike racer, I am already suffering knee issues in my 30s.
I've had knee issues due to my bike - but an excellent bike fit seems to have certainly stopped the deterioration thankfully
@@DrJamesGill oh my gosh, as a cyclist with hereditary knee/joint problems I never even thought about making sure that my bike was properly fit to reduce the risk of pain/injury, even though I’ve properly fit myself with the correct shoes and made so many other ergonomically correct setups (like the steering wheel/driver’s seat of my car etc.). Informative tip and I’m definitely going to make sure I follow through on that to keep on cycling as long as possible within my body’s limits to hopefully avoid the fate of six different family members ten replacement knees between both sides of my family!
If you are in the UK I STRONGLY suggest Velo Atelier.
He is WORTH the drive, I assure you!
@@DrJamesGill unfortunately no, but thankfully I’ve got a lot of great options in my area as there’s a big cycling community where I live.
There are lots of people who claim to do bike fits. But only 5 top level in the uk (I think) he is one of them
My fatass thought the thumbnail was a vanilla ice cream cone with a generous amount of Carmel on it... 😅
Elbow next?
it's on the list 😊
What if you have a tear in the meniscus
That will need to be assisted with various health professionals - the orthopods may want to assist, but certainly the physio will be needed
Watching these videos to figure out how to undo the damage the military has done to my knees...
There may be stuff I learn from the video
Stuff I don't, I'll just knee'd to know
Excellent video, also lines up with more recent health advice for people with arthritis which is that they should be exercising, which is relatively recent advice from the UK's NHS that went against common thinking only a little while ago.
That quadriceps tendon rupture looks horrific. I hope nothing like that ever happens to me, as a runner it'd really ruin things for me. But the guy in the video did appear to be doing a rather ridiculous exercise, leg extension machines are available to exercise those muscles.
Yes that’s a NASTY rupture.
Exercise like diet, are two huge treatments which have been overlooked for years
