Doctor says he has no evidence and sounds like "aster cell" or something ruther. The patient has left elbow pain. When he pushes the elbow with the hand flexed and his elbow straight his arm kind of shakes. I think this is a type of neuro or orthopedic sign.

I am doing a consultation, and just into the physical examination part, directly after weight, he dictates "somewhat flat and s/l* af-fect' and then goes into range of motion of the lumbar spine, with no indication of what or where "flat and s/l* af-fect' should go. Normally, he would dictate gait after height and weight, but he dictated this directly after instead. This is a new one for me, can anyone help? Thank you!
