What is the difference between Tennis Elbow and Golfers Elbow?
Tennis elbow, also called lateral epicondylitis, is an overuse injury causing pain on the outside of the elbow. This condition is caused by repeat bending back (extension) and turning (rotation) of the forearm and wrist muscles. Repeated and Larry Ohman, PT, OCS forceful activities such as turning a screw driver, chopping food, and swinging a tennis racquet, can lead to tennis elbow. Golfers elbow, also called medial epicondylitis, is a common overuse injury that causes pain on the inside of your elbow. Muscles in the forearm that bend and rotate the wrist toward you attach to the inside of your elbow. These muscles, together called the flexor pronator group, allow you to curl your fingers and bend your wrist for gripping. The lateral epicondyle is the part of the upper arm bone where forearm muscles attach. The medial epicondyle is on the inside of the elbow and serves as attachment for the other forearm muscles. Both may involve tiny tears in the tendons at their attachment to the elbow, resulting in irritation and pain. Symptoms include pain and burning at the outside/inside of the elbow, and this pain usually starts gradually and without an injury. Both medial and lateral epicondylitis can cause difficulty lifting or grasping objects, and pain with repeated movement of the wrist and elbow. Physical Therapy can help prevent and treat tennis elbow and golfers elbow by teaching how to use proper technique and equipment, avoiding repeated movements when able, and including stretching and strengthening of the arms in your fitness routine. Pain relieving modalities and taping can also be helpful! Contact the Institute of Physical Therapy to see how we can help your elbow pain

New osteoporosis screening guidelines could hurt men By MARIE McCULLOUGH
OF THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER
O
ver the last 20 years, bone fracture rates in women have declined thanks to osteoporosis screening and treatment. But increasingly, experts say, the emphasis on women and osteoporosis has fostered a sexist view of the boneweakening disease. That’s harmful to men, whose bones also weaken with age, though later than for women. What’s more, men are twice as likely as women to die within a year of breaking a hip, research shows. “Osteoporosis is considered a disorder of postmenopausal women,” said Robert Adler, chief of endocrinology at McGuire Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Richmond, Va. “The public perception of osteoporosis is the old woman with the dowager’s hump,” said University of Pittsburgh epidemiologist Jane A. Cauley. That perception — or misperception — may be reinforced by the latest screening guidelines from an influential government advisory panel, published Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommended, as it has for years, that women 65 and older and younger women with risk factors such as smoking be screened for osteoporosis with bone density scans, called DEXA. But not men. Even though the task force found “convincing evidence” that the scans detect osteoporosis and predict fractures in both men and women, it said there is “inadequate” evidence that treatment reduces fracture rates in men. Experts say that lack of data is because pharmaceutical companies’ big clinical trials comparing drug treatment to placebo were all done in women. That’s a contrast to research in conditions such as heart disease, which historically has emphasized men despite the fact that women GOLDEN TIMES

are susceptible as well. Cauley said doing a major placebo-controlled trial in men would be “a waste of money,” because the circumstantial evidence that men would benefit is overwhelming. In a journal editorial accompanying the guidelines, Cauley said screening men is justified and should target those 70 and older “who have a high probability of fracture.” The Philadelphia-based American College of Physicians has taken the same stance; it recommends bone scans for high-risk men, such as those taking corticosteroids or hormone-blocking prostate cancer drugs. The Endocrine Society, the National Osteoporosis Foundation, and other organizations go even further, recommending bone density testing in all men 70 and older. “It would be nice to have definitive proof to guide us,” said Endocrine Society chairman Nelson B. Watts, director of Mercy Health osteoporosis and bone health service in Cincinnati. “What the society’s task force reasoned is that the incidence of fractures in men tends to parallel that of women, but five to 10 years later. So ours is a logicbased recommendation.” Waning sex hormones play an important part in osteoporosis. In women, estrogen abruptly plunges at menopause, around age 50. Men, in
contrast, have a much more gradual decline in testosterone, so their fracture risk rises around age 70. Over a lifetime, fractures are more common in women. Studies show half of women will break a bone, compared with 20 percent of men. But when men suffer the worst fracture — a hip — it can be devastating. Screening is further complicated by insurance and other issues. A big study of Medicare recipients published this year found that hip fracture rates in older women, which declined every year from 2002 to 2012, have leveled off. Another study found only about 27 percent of women age 65 to 79 were screened between 2008 and 2014. Experts speculate that screening has been discouraged by shrinking insurance reimbursement for bone scans, and media coverage of rare but devastating jaw bone damage linked to bisphosphonates, the most commonly prescribed class of bonebuilding drugs. Still, guidelines from the preventive services task force hold sway with insurers and primary care doctors. “Most men and women who could get screened are seen by primary care doctors,” said Cauley, the Pitt epidemiologist. “The task force may discourage the screening of older men.”

Chuck & Marie Workman: Skating partners for life
T
hey met at a roller skating rink on Jan. 2, 1943, in Phillipsburg, Kan. Before he left that night, he gave Marie a patch off his sweatshirt featuring a roller skate with wings. She still has the patch, 75 years later. Chuck was in the Navy, so they communicated with letters. They had three dates and were married on the last one, July 12, 1943, at the courthouse in Phillipsburg. He was 18, she was 17. Chuck and Letha Marie Horner Workman have seen many seasons throughout their lives, but their vows were taken very seriously â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for better or worse, â&#x20AC;&#x2122;til death does them part. Through it all, Chuck, 93, and Marie, 92, have remained devoted to each other. Chuck was stationed at Farragut Naval Training Station in northern Idaho. While Chuck waited there, Marie went on to Tonakset, Wash., to meet her father- and mother-in-law by herself. She spent a week there, then she and Chuck left Spokane to San Diego, Calif.. When he was shipped out on the USS Copahee aircraft carrier, second division as a cook/baker, Marie went to stay with her parents in Kansas. She moved back to California when Chuck returned. After he got out of the service, they moved to Tonasket, and he drove dump

truck for a time. They moved around often, going where the work was â&#x20AC;&#x201D; either driving or working in the woods. In December 1961, they moved from Arcata, Calif., to Lewiston. Marie found work at Twin City Foods, and Chuck started working at Potlatch Forests Inc. When he retired in 1987, they moved to Dixie, Idaho. After many years snowbirding at Wellton, Ariz., they now are living back in Lewiston. Chuck and Marie have five children â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Frank (Judy) Workman, Don (Patti) Workman, Connie (Jim) Edmison, Sheila (Mike) Wakefield and Susan (Tim) Payton; 12 grandchildren; 27 greatgrandchildren; and 17 great-great-grandchildren. In their golden years, they have traveled to Alaska, Australia, Figi Islands, Branson, Mo., Arizona, Georgia, Florida and Mexico. Chuck enjoyed pitching horseshoes, fishing, hunting and seeing the sights. Marie enjoyed sewing, crocheting and spending time with family. They gave 150 percent to each other, working together with a lot of patience and love. Friends are invited to help Chuck and Marie toast their 75 years together at a covereddish celebration at 1 p.m. July 14 at the Veterans of Foreign Wars hall, 1104 Warner Ave., Lewiston.

found himself helping others. He was also glad to find he fit in better than expected — LCSC has a high number of nontraditional students, Matuska said, so he didn’t feel out of place and wasn’t treated any differently. When Matuska got his first degree in the Midwest, he was one of several thousand students. His experience at LCSC was completely different, he said. He got to know classmates and instructors and didn’t feel like just another number. After three years of schooling, Matuska graduated at the top of his class with a degree in medical assisting. He didn’t have a dime in student debt. It was during his second year of school that he volunteered at SRCC as a student for a class requirement. He enjoyed it so much, he never stopped. You’ll generally find him there when the clinic is open, which is around eight hours a week on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Other than the director, the clinic is staffed entirely by doctors, nurses and pharmacists who volunteer their time. “We work with people that fall through the cracks,” Matuska said. Most of the people who come to the clinic are working, Matuska said, they just don’t have health insurance or their expenses are too high. The clinic provides basic medical treatment free of charge, including exams, screening and prescription medication. “It’s the only one like it for hundreds of miles,” Matuska said. Because of his education, Matuska is able to serve in a variety

of roles at the clinic. One is supervising students who come in to do clinical work for their classes. What he enjoys most though is spending time with those who come in to the clinic. “I found that I love working with the patients. I make it a point to learn all of their names,” Matuska said. His age is an advantage in the clinic, he said. A lot of the patients who come in are more hesitant to talk about embarrassing medical conditions with young people. Not so with him. It’s that interaction, along with knowing that the clinic regularly saves lives, that keeps him showing up week after week. And it’s something he wouldn’t be doing if it weren’t for LCSC’s waiver program. “Without that program, I would not have been able to go back to college and do what I wanted to do when I was retired,” Matuska said. And he’s not done. Matuska is finishing up a third bachelor’s degree, this one in psychology with a focus on addictions, which he hopes will be of value in his work at the clinic. Because of the policy change in the number of credit hours he can take, it’s been a slower process, but he’s scheduled to complete his degree in May 2019.

But many fraudulent schemes currently circulating are sophisticated and able to trick even the most savvy. Anyone who believes theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been contacted by a scam artist and/or fallen victim to a fraudulent scheme may â&#x20AC;Ś ď Ź Report it to local police at (208) 746-0171 in Lewiston, (509) 758-2331 in Clarkston, (208) 883-7054 in Moscow or (509) 334-0802 in Pullman. Police can alert the community to new scams and help victims take steps to minimize damage and protect themselves. ď Ź Report it to their bank or credit institution if money was taken or information was shared. ď Ź Report it to the business or organization involved. ď Ź Report it to the Better Business Bureau at www.bbb.org/scamtracker/us. ď Ź Report it to the Federal Trade Commission at ftc.gov/complaint or by calling (877) FTC-HELP. ď Ź Find a list of current known scams and more information on avoiding scams, at www. consumer.ftc.gov/features/scam-alert. ď Ź Find information on scams circulating locally on the Lewiston Police Departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Facebook page, where citizens also may sign up for news alerts. ď Ź Ask door-to-door solicitors to show their licenses, and call the police if they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.
