For over 15 years, and probably longer, the visual analog pain scale of zero to ten, is, in my observation, both a valuable and misleading metric in medicine. For those, who read my blog regularly, you know that I rely on keeping this pain scale between zero and two for patients in my rehabilitation programs. In my experience, it is in the zero to two range out of 10 that I am confident that the patient is most likely not causing any further injury or harm, and most of the time the injured tissue is allowed to heal.

The pandemic has affected all of us – regardless of age, demographics, occupation, medical history, whatever measure you choose to use. Whether it was required work from home or shelter in place orders, or continuing work as a student or teacher virtually, we have all been confined in our homes more than ever before with minimal social encounters. Naturally, there are ramifications of such drastic changes to what was our normal routine and those changes can affect pets in the home, too.

Charcot neuroarthropathy (Charcot foot) is a highly destructive joint disease of the foot and ankle. If there is delayed diagnosis and treatment, it can lead to gross deformity, instability, recurrent ulceration and/or amputation. Total contact casting (TCC) is a treatment commonly used to immobilise the foot and ankle to prevent trauma, further destruction and preserve the foot structure during the inflammatory phase.

Back pain is a normal symptom during pregnancy and is expected to become worse beyond the first three months after childbirth. Several authors have indicated that from 8% to 20% of women present nonspecific lumbopelvic pain (LPP), two to three years after childbirth, which decreases their quality of life and interferes with their daily activities.Gutke et al. reported that LPP was related to lumbar instability due to the structural changes produced during the pregnancy.
