Hello fellow podiatrists!

 

Because you want to pass the course i would suggest the following guidance
1. Find out what if required of you to pass each unit.
2. After each lecture find out what from the lecture is on the exam.
3.If you dont understand any material at any time then make an appointment with the lecturer for them to explain it to u.
4.Pass the requirements and stay in touch with the lecturers to be aware what u need to do to pass.

 

The sooner you learn your anatomy, the easier it is..
Simply just lock your self in the library for a day and just draw and label.
It'll help you so much, Pod theory is relatively easy but if you can learn what muscle does what and what the surrounding structures are such as; Bones, Muscles, Nerves, Ligaments, Capsules and the list goes on.

Simple links:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_venous_insufficiency

Pretty much all your older patients will present with some of that..
Be good to read up on it so you can see why things manifest in the legs


Any questions.. message me.

Regards,
Danny
