@rehabscientist: 💥𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐲𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲💥 ——— 👉Here is a great video that shows what patellofemoral (kneecap) joint hypermobility looks like. Notice how the kneecap is easily slid away from neutral by @doctorlara_trauma. 🔎Patellofemoral joint hypermobility can increase one’s chances of suffering a patellar dislocation, which involves situations where the kneecap slips fully out of the femoral groove. 🧠Patellofemoral joint dislocations are fairly uncommon and only occur in 2-3% of the population. When a dislocation does occur, it is more often seen in adolescent female athletes and is typically associated with trauma or a situation where the foot is planted and a sudden change of direction is occurring. ✅My book has a comprehensive knee instability and patellar dislocation rehab program.
