Human Hand: Complex, often taken for granted
Your hands – especially as you age – are subject to the modern-day equivalent of all “the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune” which, according to the American Society for Surgery of the Hand, can include falls, accidents, traumas, wounds, scars, burns, injured tendons or nerves, fractures, arthritis and even various neurologic conditions brought on by stroke.
Speech Pathologists' Expertise Extends Far and Wide
Speech pathologists, including Jessica Fitzgerald and Mike Gaughran at the Steward Medical Group’s Sebastian River Medical Center, may have one of the most incomplete job titles in all of medicine.
Like their counterparts across the country, Fitzgerald and Gaughran do much more than work with people who have speech problems.
They also help treat stroke, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s patients.
Those four problems make up a huge universe of potential patients.
'Spin" Class: Physical Therapy Can Quickly Cure Vertigo
Vertigo is the perception of motion when no movement is present or the abnormal perception of motion in response to movement. Medical News Today calls it “a sense of spinning or dizziness.”
In and of itself vertigo is not life-threatening, but – and this is a really big but – the dizziness of vertigo is a leading cause of falls, and “falls are the leading cause of fatal and non-fatal injuries for older Americans,” according to the National Council on Aging.
