Conditions We Treat
Tendinitis
The inflammation of a tendon is also referred to as tendonitis. It occurs, for instance, when someone overuses or injures a tendon while participating in sports. It is typically associated with an acute inflammatory damage. It frequently affects the finger, thigh, elbow, wrist, and other body regions.
Bursitis
Bursae are microscopic, fluid-filled sacs that cushion the bones, tendons, and muscles around your joints. Bursitis is a painful disorder that affects these sacs. When bursae become inflamed, bursitis develops. Bursitis most frequently occurs in the hip, elbow, and shoulder.
Knee Pain
Acute injuries, overuse injuries, and underlying diseases like arthritis can all result in knee pain. The cause will determine the course of treatment. An injury to the knee may cause pain, edema, and stiffness.
Nerve Suffering
Nerve pain manifests itself differently in each person. It hurts like a stabbing in the middle of the night for some people. Some people may experience burning, tingling, or prickling that lasts all day. It might be difficult to endure uncontrolled nerve discomfort. However, it is frequently satisfactorily controlled with medication.
Sciatica Pain
Pain that travels down the sciatic nerve, which emerges from your lower back and passes down your hips, buttocks, and legs, is referred to as sciatica. Sciatica usually affects a single side of the body.
Hip Pain
Rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis are two of the most prevalent types of arthritis, particularly in older persons. Hip joint inflammation and the degeneration of the cartilage that cushions your hip bones are the results of arthritis. The ache intensifies over time. In addition to experiencing stiffness, people with arthritis have less hip range of motion. Study up on osteoarthritis of the hip.
