📍 The Thompson Test (Achilles Tendon) What is it? A quick clinical test used to assess for a complete Achilles tendon rupture. How do you perform it? • Patient lies prone with feet hanging off the edge • Calf muscles are relaxed • Examiner squeezes the calf What should happen? ✅ Normal: The foot automatically plantarflexes (toes point down) ❌ Positive Thompson Test: Little to no movement → suggests a ruptured Achilles What are we looking for? • Loss of force transmission from calf → heel • Asym

This video shows the Thompson test in action, a quick and clever way doctors check if your Achilles tendon is torn. When the tendon is intact, squeezing the calf causes the foot to point downward. If there’s no movement, it likely means the tendon is completely ruptured. Watch the difference between a normal response and a positive Thompson test, and learn how this simple bedside exam can reveal a serious injury. #ThompsonTest #AchillesTendon #SportsInjuries #OrthopedicExam #MedicalEducation Dis
