Week 2 OFFICIAL CASE STUDY

Excellent job on last week's quiz everyone! The depth of clinical reasoning and discussion in that thread was impressive. Keep engaging guys, this is exactly how you make your clinical reasoning razor sharp! This week we are back to dissecting case studies in their entirety.

Case study 2:

30-year-old male, started running 4 months ago, training for his first half marathon. During a sprint session, felt sudden pain in the back of the right thigh while taking off for a sprint.

Pain is sharp and localized to posterior thigh. Pain gets worse with running, especially uphill or sprinting.

Aggs: bending forward, resisted knee flexion.

What would you do from here? What are some potential diagnosis to consider and how would you differentiate between them?
