The Effectiveness of Physical Therapy in Patients with Generalized Joint Hypermobility and Concurrent Temporomandibular Disorders-A Cross-Sectional Study.

Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) consist of a group of symptoms such as: pain of temporomandibular joints, masticatory muscles or surrounding tissues, dysfunctions of TMJs' mobility, and crepitation. The Hypermobility Joint Syndrome (HJS) manifests in the flaccidity of joint structures, an increase in the range of joint motion, and occurs more often in the young and women.

[Contraction of the tensor fasciae latae muscle of the fascia of the broad thigh and flexion of the knee joint in the runners].

Objective: Introduction: The illustration of the ranges of bending the limb during the outflow allowed to divide the study group into two parts.

Lateral instability of the knee joint and disorder of the ankle joint extension disorder in men.

Objective: Introducion: The flexion of the knee joints in the movement of the squat may be accompanied by physiological varus deformity that increases smoothly with the lowering of the center of gravity, followed by a return to the starting position. Observing the disturbances of the physiological movement of the knee joints in the frontal plane, the authors correlated them with the mobility of the ankles in the sagittal plane. The aim: To show the relationship of knee joint motion disorders in the frontal plane with the movement of the ankle joints in the sagittal plane in the movement of the squat.
