With a practical focus on how a clinician evaluates pain - "what is
it?" rather than "where is it?" - Physical Diagnosis of Pain, 4th
Edition, remains your most authoritative source for guidance in
this key area of pain management. In this award-winning reference,
internationally recognized pain expert Dr. Steven Waldman takes you
step by step through the evaluation and diagnosis of more than 280
pain-related conditions based on physical signs. Concise, superbly
illustrated chapters help you rapidly diagnose pathology based on
physical techniques rather than relying on imaging alone. Examines
the full range of pain-related conditions in the cervical spine,
shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist and hand, chest wall, thorax and
thoracic spine, lumbar spine, abdominal wall and pelvis, hip, knee,
ankle and foot. Follows a consistent format in each chapter for
quick reference: anatomy, inspection, palpation, and range of
motion, followed by relevant special tests. Features hundreds of
high-quality radiographic images, clinical photos, and color line
drawings to demonstrate the physical exam clearly and simply.
Contains 34 new chapters, including The Finger Flexion Test for
Cervical Myelopathy, The Keibler Anterior Slide Test for SLAP
Lesions, The Biceps Entrapment Test for Biceps Entrapment, The
