What else can I help you with?
Is the rotator cuff a muscle in the human body?
Yes, the rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons in the shoulder that help stabilize and move the shoulder joint.
What is the Difference between a labral tear and a rotator cuff tear?
The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles, whose combined mission is to keep the shoulder in its socket. A rotator "cup" doesn't exist in the world of anatomy. Perhaps you heard it from someone who mispronounced after not hearing clearly.
What muscle covers the majority of the shoulder joint?
none as the joint ca[sule is an inert structure meaning no contractile tissue
What is the action of the quadriceps muscle group?
Flexing the thigh, extending the leg, adducts leg
What is subscapularis?
The subscapularis is a muscle located at the front of the shoulder, part of the rotator cuff group. It originates from the subscapular fossa of the scapula and inserts into the lesser tubercle of the humerus. This muscle primarily functions to medially rotate the arm and stabilize the shoulder joint. Its proper function is essential for a range of movements involving the upper limb.
What is a 1.5 x 1.5 cm focal rotator cuff tear?
A group of 4 muscles form the rotator cuff and help to stabilise the shoulder joint. It means that there is a tear in the rotator cuff muscles about 1.5 x 1.5 cm g. Rotator cuff injuries causes difficulty in lifting your arm and may require surgical intervention
What group of muscles holds the head of the humerus securely in place as it rotates within the shoulder joint?
rotator cuff
What is the antagonist to the quadriceps muscle group?
The hamstring muscle group (biceps femoris, semitendonosis, semimembranosis) are the antagonists to the quadricep group.
What muscle group is your scapula from?
The scapula is not a muscle; it is a bone.
What is a group of skeletal muscle fibers?
A skeletal muscle
Is muscle an organ?
Muscle is an organ! An organ is made up of a group of tissue and muscle is made up of a group of tissue! So muscle is an organ sure! Just me!
What is a rotator cuff?
The rotator cuff is a group of tendons and their related muscles that helps keep the upper arm bone securely placed, or seated, into the socket of the shoulder blade. Rotator cuff disorders are usually caused by a combination of factors, such as normal wear and tear. Age-related degeneration slowly damages the rotator cuff, causing one or more tendons to rub against the bones (impingement). Partial or complete tears to the rotator cuff tendon are more likely to occur when the rotator cuff is already scarred, weakened, or damaged. A complete rotator cuff tear in a person with an otherwise healthy shoulder is most often caused by an extremely forceful injury. PAINPAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
