Range Of Motion

[mrb]

I have a P-Therapy appt. next week, and I want to have my range of motion documented(starting were the pain is) What wording do i need to use. I found this on the website(Unfavorable, in any degree of palmar flexion, or with ulnar or radial deviation) Now my question is, When my wrist is moved at a certain degree and the pain starts is that were they start the unfavovorable documentation.

No 'wording' just be honest. When it hurts it hurts. Tell your doctor about whatever certain motions aggravate it, too.

"On your worst day". Remember, ROM changes depending on a lot of things. As stated, be honest, but also be honest with YOURSELF. Where does it hurt on your absolute worst day? THAT is where you stop them. I have had the same idiot physicians assistant give me 4 C&P exams and she always forces me knee or back even after I tell her it hurts. Nobody, nobody but you know how and where is that spot on your worst day. Just because you didn't work that part hard recently doesn't mean that it isn't usually worked hard. All VA exams are supposed to measure your maximum disability, not minimum contrary to what VA employees think.
