I was wondering whether anyone could be of some assistance to me. I am a first year pod and have come across quite a challenging patient... Patient presented with an indentified extra No 9 chromosome. This condition is known as Trisomy 9p. The Thought experiment is about the relative angles and stresses on the joints. So is the game. Not a bad way to introduce people to fissics. Laser treatment for nail fungus Usually fungal nails are due to a weakness in the toenail caused by Trauma. the most common trauma is tight shoes. That's why most women develop fungal or damaged nails on their 1st and especially 5th toenails. This damage is permanent and no medication or laser can reverse matrix cells that have been killed by ischemia caused by tight shoes. Plantar fasciitis and the rolling ice stretch Once again i stumbled across this seemingly popular treatment for plantar fasciitis, this time, on Dr. Richard Blake's blog. This one has got me thinking for a while now....i cant find any RCT's specifically utilising this method as a stand alone treatment, although I know that anecdotally it seems quite effective at reducing symptoms.
