Hyperlordosis

∙ 13y ago
This condition is called lumbar hyperlordosis. It can lead to lower Back pain, muscle imbalances, and increased stress on the lumbar spine. Treatment typically involves strengthening the abdominal and gluteal muscles, correcting posture, and addressing any underlying issues that may be causing the increased anterior pelvic tilt.

The increase in the normal lumbar curve with increased pelvic tilt and hip flexion?
Hyperlordosis
What region resembles the anterior cubital fossa region the most?
Lumbar
What massive vertebra is weight-sustaining?
There are five lumbar vertebrae located in the lower back. These vertebrae receive the most stress and are the weight-bearing portion of the back. The lumbar vertebrae allow movements such as flexion and extension, and some lateral flexion. Thoracic vertebra Final Answer: lumbar vertebra
Unilateral contraction of which muscle causes ipsilateral flexion of the lumbar vertebral column?
Quadratus Lumborum
What is an anterior lumbar fixation?
A surgical procedure whereby metal instruments (screws and plates) are fixed to the front of the lumbar spine to diminish anteroposterior movement.
What is lumbo pelvic rhythm?
Lumbopelvic rhythm is the coordinated movement between the lumbar spine and pelvis during activities such as walking and bending. It refers to the natural way these two regions of the body work together to maintain stability and mobility. Dysfunction in this rhythm can contribute to issues like low back pain.
Is there flattening of lumbar spine with anterior pelvic tilt?
Assuming the subject is in a standing upright postion ANTERIOR PELVIC TILT- topographically speaking, the anterior superior iliac spines will be forward of the pubic symphysis; FLATTENED LUMBAR SPINE- a term understood but I prefer some topograpical measurements, as numbers are easier to understand. To determine the lumbar lordosis, it can be calculated by taking a measurement with an inclinometer at T12 level and S1 level. The T12 measurement is usually found to be in a position of EXTENSION {-} in relationship to the vertical plane. The S1 measurement is usually in a position of FLEXION {+}. Example T12 -20 degrees and S1 +20 degrees the lumbar lordosis would be 40 degrees measured topographically. Now using the following classification: A DEEP LORDOSIS 50 - 70 degrees range {60 or more} A MEDIAN LORDOSIS 30 - 50 degrees range A SHALLOW LORDOSIS 15 - 30 degrees range { 20 or less } At this point, the LUMBAR LORDOSIS can be considered SYMMETRICAL when the T12 and S1` measurements are equal and ASYMMETRICAL when they are not equal. A SYMMETRICAL LUMBAR LORDOSIS is not a common finding whereas the ASYMMETRICAL LUMBAR LORDOSIS is common. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Suspect the following in the presence of---- 1. Any LUMBAR LORDOSIS that is ASYMMETRICAL with the S1 measurement larger than the T12 measurement and the S1 measurement is greater than 30 degrees- AN ANTERIOR PELVIC TILT WEDGED-SHAPED VERTEBRAL BODY OF L5 WEDGED-SHAPED DISCS OF L4/L5 AND L5/S1 RULE OUT Spondylolisthesis, Spondylolysis, and a transitional vertebra of the last lumbar segment. 2. Any LUMBAR LORDOSIS that is ASYMMETRICAL with the S1 measurement smaller than the T12 measurement and the S1 measurment is less than 10 degrees--- A POSTERIOR PELVIC TILT REDUCED SACRAL FLEXION ANGLE MULTIPLE LEVEL SPONDYLOSIS MEASURE THE SUBJECT BUT CHANCES ARE GREAT THAT WITH AN ANTERIOR PELVIC TILT THE LUMBAR LORDOSIS WOULD NOT BE FLATTENING UNLESS THERE ARE GROSS STRUCTURAL CHANGES PRESENCE. What is the range of motion of the lumbar spine----and what is the lumbar/pelvic rhythm?
What is evidence of nerve entrapment exacerbated by lumbar extension hip extension and lateral flexion of the lumbar spine?
A "pinched nerve" that gets worse if the patient bends backwards, puts one foot behind the other, or bends sideways.
What is the medical term for anterior curvature of the spine?
The medical term for anterior curvature of the spine is lordosis. It is a normal curve in the cervical and lumbar regions of the spine that helps distribute weight and maintain balance.
What is Antagonist to the psoas?
It depends in which function. Femur flexion: Gluteus maximus, Hamstrings, Sartorius and parts of Adductor magnus. Adduction: Gluteus medius and minimus, Tensor Fascia latae, Sartorius, Piriformis. Flexion of the lumbar spine: Quadratus lumborum and Erector Spinae.
What is the umbilical area to the lumbar area?
The sternal area (the area near the breastbone) is superior to the umbilical area (the area near the bellybutton or navel.)
What muscle is located on the sides of the vertebral column?
Erector spinae are the muscles that move the vertebral column.It is the largest muscle mass of the back, forming a prominent bulge on either side of the vertebral column.It is the chief extensor of the vertebral column. It is also important in controlling flexion, lateral flexion and rotation of the vertebral column and in maintaining the lumbar curve, because the main mass of the muslce is in the lumbar region.Consists of: iliocostalis, longissimus and spinalis.Erector spinae are the muscles that move the vertebral column.
