Common Questions and Answers about Flexibility measurement
flexibility
High normal is 11cm, borderline is 12mm and 14cm is still considered mildly enlarged. This is a measurement of the wall between the left and right chambers of your heart. As we age the walls will thicken as part of the aging process, they can also thicken due to underlying conditions which makes your heart work too hard, one of the main causes is high blood pressure. What was your doctor's feedback on this?
I visited my hospital for physiotherapy yesterday where the physiotherapist takes measurements of the flexibility and movement of the wrist she informs me that the movement is worse and each measurement has dropped by 10 degrees. My thumb is numb and my hand is permanently turned to the left instead of being straight. Also the pain is now unbearable and much to my dismay I have now had to revert to taking painkillers again.
Which measurements are over? Your fundal height (tummy)? If so they will just want to get a more accurate measurement of baby, make sure he/she isn't growing too rapidly and also to probably check amniotic fluid levels...One or both of which can give a larger than expected fundal height reading.
I went for my U/S and TVUS this morning. I don't have the results yet, of course, but did manage to sneak a peek of the screen when the tech left the room. The first time she left, I saw "7.0 cm" in the bottom corner. This was a measurement from the TVUS, as she had just finished. She then came back in, mentioned something about taking more measurements due to the "physics" of something or another, and looked via U/S.
My fundal height measurements took my Dr. by surprise today. I am scheduled for a growth scan in a week. I am 24 4/7 weeks I gained 7 pounds in 5 weeks. I trust my Dr. so much and respect his opinions as well. He was clearly concerned. He said it is to early for the baby's size to affect the measurements so drastically. I am a seasoned mother baby #5 on board but can't help but freak out. It is going to be a LONG week! Any one else experience this?
m trying to measure myself at home, but I know my measurements aren't correct... I've googled on how to do it but i still think I'm doing it wrong...
I have flexibility issues in almost all of my joints (Knees, elbow, wrist, ankle). Coincidentally, all the joints in the right side of my body are worse. I cannot squat as the back of my feet cannot touch my butt, my hand cannot touch my shoulder, cannot do pushup as wrist will hurt a lot.
I have done xrays but doctor said my xrays are fine. Went through physiotherapy but joints flexibility does not improve no matter how much i stretched.
Usually the main predictors of aortic dissection are family history, aortic size, and aortic flexibility. For someone of your aortic size, I would take it easy. Try the ARB approach with a max or ultra-max high dosage (as long as your doctor lets you) and see if that reduces aortic size and aortic flexibility (the "pulse pressure" is one way to estimate the flexibility - Google it). If so, then perhaps you can talk to your doctor about athletics.
Your cervix can be measured by hand or for a more accurate measurement by vaginal ultrasound. The anatomy scan is done with the external ultrasound.
My baby has now moved to either breech or head down (they are not sure) but my measurement is now 6 weeks ahead?! I'm 32 weeks measuring at 38 weeks! What does this all mean? I'm so confused/concerned! Help?
Stretching isn't the best way to improve flexibility—lifting weights through a full range of motion is, according to a recent study at the University of North Dakota. Pausing for 2 to 3 seconds at the "down" position of the lift (where you feel the stretch) without relaxing your muscles is even more effective.
