🦶 Therman Test of the Ankle The Therman Test is used to assess for subtalar instability. With the patient lying supine, position the ankle in approximately 10° of dorsiflexion. Stabilize the forefoot with one hand while applying inversion and internal rotation to the calcaneus with the other. A positive test may include excessive medial movement of the calcaneus and reproduction of the patient’s pain or instability. 🔗 Link: wikism.org/Therman_Test_of_t… #SubtalarInstability #AnkleExamination #SportsMedicine #Orthopedics #MusculoskeletalMedicine
