Description

In this episode with Mike Reinold, we explore an interesting case study on a real patient of his - a baseball player with a medial ulnar collateral ligament injury - also known as a “Tommy Johns injury”. We cover:

  • Initial presentation of the patient
  • Important subjective questioning in this population
  • Differential diagnosis around the medial elbow region
  • Importance of load management in baseball
  • Management of ulnar collateral ligament injury

This episode is closely tied to Mike’s case study he did with us. With case studies, you can see how top clinicians manage real-world cases and apply their strategies to get better results with your patients.
