Haglund's Deformity
A bump of the back of you heel. Haglund’s deformity (aka the Mulhulland Deformity) is a bony enlargement on the back of the heel that most often leads to painful bursitis, which is an inflammation of the bursa (a fluid-filled sac between the tendon and bone). In Haglund’s deformity, the soft tissue near the Achilles tendon becomes irritated when the bony enlargement rubs against shoes.

Hawkins Test
The Hawkins' test is another commonly performed assessment of impingement. It is performed by elevating the patient's arm forward to 90 degrees while forcibly internally rotating the shoulder. Pain with this maneuver suggests subacromial impingement or rotator cuff tendonitis.
Head Impulse thrust
This is a test to determine if your inner ear is working properly. Normally you should be able to keep your eyes fixed and looking straight ahead even if someone moves your head quickly.

If your eyes have to catch up to your head or have to correct their position then this test is positive and implies a disorder of your inner ear.
