Médicus shares its experience with its customers by listing the symptoms as well as the recommendations, for each body part.
Foot
Plantar Fasciitis (heel spur, heel pain)
Hyper-Pronation of the Foot (valgus or flat foot, or hallux valgus)
Forefoot varus (deviated foot)
Knee
Back
Arm
Head and neck
Post-Traumatic cervical syndrome
Torticollis and cervical spasm
Symptoms :
Pain under the heel and chronic fascia inflammation.
Solutions :
Symptoms :
Deviation of the achillo-calcaneal axis, ankle bone detachment, deviation of the first metacarpo-phalangeal ray accompanied by a prominent calcified cavity at the base of the big toe.
Solutions :
Symptoms :
Overly arched foot with calluses or deviation of the foot.
Solutions :
Symptoms :
Can create valgus calcaneus, apparent during weight bearing, will disappear during oscillation.
Solutions :
Symptoms :
Callus or Morton neuroma. Solid mass with pain under the metatarsal heads or loss of sensitivity to the toes (pain between the 3rd and 4th metatarsus).
Solutions :
This happens when the ankle's ligaments are damaged. The resulting lesion can go from a simple stretch to a complete rupture. The ligaments link up with bones allowing the articulation to be kept in place.

Symptoms :
Inflammation of the tissues enveloping the tendon, as well as heel, ankle and lower leg pain, caused by sudden or repeated stretching of the tendon in abnormal conditions.
Solutions :
Symptoms :
Lateral pain, inflammation of the extensor tendons of the toes and inner leg due to changes in walking or jogging routine or walking or jogging with soles that are too flexible or varus feet.
Solutions :
Symptoms :
Muscular tenderness and contraction.
Solutions :
Symptoms :
Traumatic lesion of an articulation with an elongation, pull out or a laceration without displacement of the joint's surface and without luxation caused by a torsion or an abrupt elongation.
Symptoms :
Fracture of the malleolus, voluminous extension of the tibia (internal malleolus) and the fibula (external malleolus) protruding at the ankle's level.
Symptoms :
Pain around and under the patella augmenting when climbing or jogging - Muscular imbalance; hyper-pronation of the foot; misalignment ( angle superior to 20 degrees).
Solutions :
LeThe medial collateral ligament runs along the inside of the knee, connecting the femur to the tibia, providing stability to the knee joint.
Injury is mainly caused by an internal tibia rotation or a sudden impact to the outside of the knee.
<>
Cartilaginous articulation degenerative disease.
Term essentially used to refer to an infections arthritis whose lesions have spread to adjacent zones.
Symptoms :
Laceration related to an articulated meniscus.
Genu varum (also called bow-leggedness or bandiness), is a deformity marked by medial angulation of the leg in relation to the thigh, an outward bowing of the legs, giving the appearance of a bow. Usually there is an outward curvature of both the femur and tibia.
Genu valgum, commonly called "knock-knees", is a condition where the knees angle in and touch one another when the legs are straightened.
Symptoms :
Low back pain - Sciatic nerve pain or crural neuralgia - Stiffness accompanied by pain irradiating in the leg.
Solutions :
Symptoms :
Painful affection of the lumbar area happening suddenly following an effort caracterized by a sharp pain as well as a blocking sensation usually related to a disc lesion and that heals normally in a few days.
<>
Facet syndrome is a low back pain syndrome attributed to osteoarthritis of the interarticular vertebrae; clinical low back pain that increases on extension, irradiates to the posterior thigh, and ends at the knee.
Symptoms :
The sacroiliac joints are located at the bottom of the back and are semi rigid. This rigidity supports the upper body weight, allowing proper distribution of the weight on both legs. The sacroiliac joints help make up the rear part of the pelvic girdle and sit between the sacrum and the ilia. These joints can often get stuck or in some cases one half of the pelvis can glide forwards or backwards causing a greater production of fibrous tissue.
Symptoms: dull ache around the dimple or posterior superior iliac spine region.
Degeneration of the spinal column, especially a fusion and immobilization of the vertebral bones.
Symptoms: stiffness and pain in the morning affecting the sacroiliac joint area and spine.
Front sliding of a vertebra against the underlying vertebra which mostly reach the two last lumbar vertebras. Usually precede the spondylitis.
Symptoms :
Inflammation of the epicondylitis of the inserted tendons that may affect the surrounding tissus.
The carpal tunnel is the space between this sheath (above) and the bones (below) making up the wrist and hand.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a medical condition in which the median is compressed at the wrist, leading to paresthesias, numbness and muscle weakness in the hand.
Symptoms: numbness and a burning and tingling sensation in the thumb, index, and middle fingers.
De Quervain’s diseaseDe Quervain syndrome is an inflammation or a tendinosis of the sheath or tunnel that surrounds two tendons that control the movement of the thumb.
Symptoms: pain, tenderness, and swelling over the thumb side of the wrist, and difficulty gripping.
Post-Traumatic cervical syndrome
A syndrome of neck pain, tenderness, and spasm, often associated with ill-defined symptoms (dizziness, blurred vision), resulting from neck trauma, most often of the whiplash variety.
Torticollis and cervical spasm
Symptoms :
Torticollis, or wry neck, is a condition in which the head is tilted toward one side, and the chin is elevated and turned toward the opposite side. A neck spasm is an involuntary contraction of the muscles in the neck region.
Whiplash is commonly associated with a motor vehicle accident usually when the vehicle has been hit in the rear. A whiplash injury may also be the result of impulsive stretching of the spine, mainly the ligament: anterior longitudinal ligament which is stretched or tears, as the head snaps forward and then back again.
Symptoms: pain and aching to the neck and back, referred pain to the shoulders, sensory disturbance (such as pins and needles) to the arms & legs and headaches.
