in #pti-s21w32 days ago

Thank you for understanding the lesson and sharing your assignment; I hope that you will enjoy this week's lesson and try to implement it in your life if you see any such case.

Observations

Task 1 (2.8/3)
You have shared a good knowledge about cervical radiculopathy, and it's cause, symptoms, treatment but you have to add the vertebrae that are mainly involve in cervical radiculopathy. I bit more depth require to complete the answer. I appreciate your effort.

Task 2 (2.9/3)
In the second question, you tell us about how you have to assess a patient by doing the physical examination, history taking, investigations of patients and specialized tests. You have share good knowledge but the main test for nerve examination is NCS nerve conduction test then EMG. Great.

Task 3 (3/4)
You try the isometric neck rotation, retraction, extension and upper Trapezoius stretch. But while performing these exercises you have to apply resistance with head to hand not simply place hand on head. Stretch should be applied for 5 to 10 seconds for effectiveness. Remember always apply heating pad to relax your muscles before performing these exercises. I appreciate your efforts.

Overall you made a good attempt to answer all the questions. I appreciate your efforts. But next time try to avoid the above written suggestions. Keep learning and try to implement your knowledge to the people suffering from any cervical radiculopathy. Thank you.
