@BaconSmith@universeodon.com It's fascinating how often I share home rehabilitation exercises and patients won't do them. They'll tell me, oh, I get exercise by walking, and I'm like, that's great and it would be even more helpful to target the muscles and joints to support the joint that hurts! BTW if anyone has neck, shoulder, back, hip, knee, or ankle pain, these free exercises were developed by primary care-sports medicine docs at the VA: https://rx3.usuhs.edu/ #pain #exercises #orthopedics

"One inherent issue in all medical specialties is that appropriate treatment is often in the eye of the physician beholder, meaning that specialists create the guidelines for when a treatment is in order. And financial considerations may influence that decision, Järvinen said." https://kffhealthnews.org/health-industry/knee-surgery-arthroscopic-cartilage-meniscus-finnish-study-osteoarthritis/ #healthcare #medicare #aging #orthopedics #guidelines #CostsOfCare #ConflictOfInterest

Hello Fediverse! It's been a while — about 5 months since I last touched FreeCAD. Today I got an order for medical equipment and updated straight to version 1.1. Honestly? It feels more powerful and stable. The new feature that shows hole depth visually before cutting? Game changer. Saves so much guesswork. The photos show titanium trauma plates for orthopedics. Used for bone fixation in severe fractures. I can't share most of the dev work until patents clear, but here's a glimpse of what's allowed. Big thanks to the FreeCAD team. You're the only ones doing this not for profit, but for the people. #FreeCAD #CAD #MedTech #OpenSource #Orthopedics #Engineering #FOSScad #Titanium
