Osteoarthritis in over 16s: diagnosis and management Really are step in the right direction 😍 No acupuncture, no electrotherapy, no inappropriate imaging. Nice linear decision making Even like the layout, much more accessible. @physiojack This is dreamy nice.org.uk/guidance/ng226/c…

I get asked about the utility of hip & groin tests all the time The short answer is there's a big overlap across clinical tests & key pain drivers - no test is particularly specific; some are sensitive This is my take based on clinical experience - opinions welcome

Thread alert - posterior ankle & heel pain 🚨🚨🚨 Most cases are ‘common garden’ achilles tendinopathy However, here is a selection of conditions I've seen over time in clinic which can masquerade & are worth considering if the picture is atypical or patient not progressing

New chronic back pain trial alert! Congrats to @matthewbagg @Pain_NeuRa and team for making it happen and Ben Wand for a bright idea. Graded sensorimotor training superior to a proper sham for pain and disability. @PhysioBrunel @brunelchwl
A graded sensorimotor retraining intervention, compared with a sham procedure and attention control, resulted in a statistically significant improvement in pain intensity at 18 weeks. ja.ma/3Sj0Nvo
