¿Por qué las fracturas de cadera son tan peligrosas, sobre todo en los abuelitos?

Quizás tuviste un familiar mayor que sufrió una fractura de cadera… y desde ese momento su salud nunca volvió a ser la misma. No es casualidad. En medicina, una fractura de cadera en el adulto mayor se considera un punto de inflexión en la vida.

Estas fracturas suelen ocurrir tras caídas aparentemente leves, porque con la edad los huesos se vuelven más frágiles debido a la osteoporosis —una pérdida progresiva de masa ósea—. Pero el verdadero peligro no está solo en el hueso roto, sino en todo lo que viene después.

Después de la fractura:

• El paciente deja de moverse con normalidad, y el reposo prolongado provoca pérdida acelerada de masa muscular, trombosis, úlceras por presión y neumonías.

• Muchas veces la cirugía, necesaria para estabilizar el hueso, representa un alto riesgo cardiovascular y anestésico.

• El miedo a volver a caer genera ansiedad, aislamiento y deterioro cognitivo progresivo.

• Y en algunos casos, la pérdida de movilidad lleva a una dependencia total, que impacta tanto en el cuerpo como en el ánimo.

Por eso los médicos dicen que una fractura de cadera no solo quiebra un hueso: rompe el equilibrio de todo el organismo.

Cuidar la salud ósea, prevenir las caídas y detectar la osteoporosis a tiempo puede hacer la diferencia entre conservar la independencia o perderla de forma irreversible.

The Lasègue test, or Straight Leg Raise Test (SLR), is one of the most commonly used maneuvers in clinical evaluation of sciatica pain and lumbar radicolopathy. This test is based on the tension of the sciatic nerve and its peripheral branches (tibial nerve and peroneal nerve), providing a clear indication of possible compression at the level of the lombosacral nerve roots.
How is the test performed ?
The patient is in superior position. Therapist passively lifts the extended lower limb while keeping the extended knee. The angle of elevation is between 40° and 50°, because at this stage the sciatic nerve enters maximum tension. If the patient reports pain radiated along the sciatic nerve course, the test is positive and suggests possible compression or root irritation.
Awareness test: foot reflexion
To increase the specifics of the test, the clinician may add a passive dissipation of the foot. This gesture causes a further stretching of the sciatic nerve, intensifying the pain in case of nerve irritation.
Why is it important ?
If dorsiflexion increases pain, the likelihood of lumbar radicolopathy increases. Instead, if the pain remains unchanged or is located only at the lumbar level, it could be a musculoskeletal or myofascial dysfunction (for example, piriform syndrome or better sciatic-pelvic functional neuropathy*).
What does the Lasègue test say to us?
Pain between 30° and 70° elevation → possible lumbar disc hernia compressing the root of L4-L5 or L5-S1.
Pain above 70° → less likely root involvement; could be ischiocrural muscle tension.
Pain that reduces by flexion of the knee → probable involvement of the sciatic nerve and not other muscle structures.
Link with the lumbar root diseases
As shown in the image, a protrusion or herniated disc between L4 and L5 can compress the L5 nerve root, causing pain radiated down the course of the sciatic nerve to the foot.
Common symptoms associated with L5 radicolopathy
Lower back pain radiating down the lateral face of the thigh and leg.
Deficiency of dissipation of the tooth and the foot.
Alterations of the sensitivity in the back of the foot.
If instead the hernia involves L5-S1, the pain radiates down the back of the thigh and leg up to the lateral margin of the foot.
Is Lasègue's test enough for diagnosis?
Nope! Lasègue’s test is an indicator of radical suffering, but alone is not enough to make a diagnosis. It must be associated with other neurological tests (reflexes, muscle strength, dermatomeric sensitivity assessment) and, if necessary, confirmed with imaging (lumbar RM).
Conclusion
The Lasègue test is a fundamental tool in the assessment of lumbosciatalgic pain, allowing to differentiate between a problem of nerve origin and musculoskeletal dysfunction. However, it should always be interpreted in a broader clinical context to avoid misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment.

Our feet share a special connection with our body, they connect us with the ground, and we should pay special attention to how our feet are behaving if we want to perform at our best and stay injury-free.

The arches of your feet are one of the most jam-packed and complex anatomical structures in your body and help with many things:

• They allow for fine-tuned movements of the foot and toes in order to achieve stability and balance.

• They act like a ‘core’ to help support the arch and hold it in place when weight-bearing. This helps maintain balance and control and prevents the foot from unwanted collapse.

• They help the foot become stiff and rigid to create propulsion when walking, running, jumping, etc. They also help the foot become mobile/adaptable when needed.

Now with a pronated foot (collapsing medially), your hip (ipsilaterally) side moves down and anteriorly.

With a supinated foot ⤴️(moving externally), your weight shifts laterally, and you will feel pressure on the outside of your feet.

This leads to mechnical imbalances that affect everything above your ankle joint.

Improving foot proprioception is the first step to addressing a foot imbalance.

Therapeutic insoles are a great way to address poor foot posture by hacking your nervous system.

This is how they work: 1️⃣ mechanoreceptor (skin)> 2️⃣ thalamus > 3️⃣ sensory cortex > 4️⃣ motor cortex (movement)

Since the motor cortex is what ultimately controls your muscles, working with a product that feeds it 24/7 results in FAST and permanent changes in poor foot and body posture.
