Shoulder
Beyond the ball and socket, there are a number of muscles, tendons, and ligaments in the shoulder that can sustain injury, causing pain and/or issues with everyday use:

 

  • Stiffness and reduced range of motion
  • Lack of strength for daily activities
  • Sensation of “slipping” out of place
  • Shoulder joint โ€œpoppingโ€
  • Feeling like your arm is sliding out of the shoulder socket
There are a wide variety of small-bone and extremity injuries that affect the many bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and other soft tissues of the hand and wrist. Any of these components can be injured and have a significant impact on a personโ€™s life. Symptoms include:

 

  • Pain, swelling, and stiffness
  • Inflammation or irritation of tendons
  • Tenderness around joints
  • Numbness or tingling
The hip is one of the main weight-bearing joints in the body. Itโ€™s made up of a complex mix of components including bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and other soft tissues. You may have a hip injury if:

 

  • Your hip is stiff and doesn’t allow full movement
  • You lack the strength to perform your daily activities
  • You are unable to walk or perform normal functions
  • You regularly experience severe pain
The upper leg contains several muscles and tendons that cross the hip. These structures must function properly to keep the hip stable and able to support our entire body through standing, walking, and athletic activities. When an injury occurs, these structures often require treatment and rehabilitation to restore proper function. You may have an upper leg injury if:

 

  • You lack the strength to perform your daily activities
  • You are unable to walk or perform normal functions
  • You regularly experience severe pain
The knee joint is the largest joint in the body and formed where the thigh bone meets the shin bone. Issues are common in athletics and everyday life alike, and can lead to significant disability if not treated quickly by an experienced specialist. Symptoms of a knee injury include:

 

  • Pain and tenderness around the joint
  • Swelling
  • Stiffness
  • Compromised mobility
  • Pain walking and standing
Elbow and arm injuries can come from a variety of causes. Some injuries are due to repetitive use while others are due to trauma. Thatโ€™s why itโ€™s important to be evaluated as soon as possible by a physician to prevent progression of the issue. Common symptoms include:

 

  • Elbow pain during activities like tennis or golf
  • Elbow pain when throwing or swimming
  • Pain and tenderness around the joint
  • Compromised range of motion
  • Discomfort during everyday activities
Arm injuries are common. Symptoms can develop from everyday wear and tear, overuse, or a traumatic injury and can be caused by sports or hobbies, repetitive work-related tasks, or even DIY projects around the house. Arm pain, stiffness or immobility can also be a sign of a more serious issue. Thatโ€™s why itโ€™s important to be evaluated as soon as possible by your orthopedic physician to prevent progression of the issue.
Our hands serve many purposes. Hands help us eat, dress, write, earn a living, create art, and do many other activities. To function, our hands require sensation and movement in the joints, tendons and muscles. When a problem arises, care must be given to all the different types of tissues that comprise the hand. Examples of common hand conditions include:

 

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Mallet Finger
  • Trigger Finger
The bones, tendons, and muscles of the lower leg connect the knee joint to the foot. Strain and overuse of the structures of the lower leg can cause pain or hinder playing sports or even make such basic movements as walking difficult. You may have a knee or lower leg injury if:

 

  • Your knee or lower leg doesn’t allow full movement
  • Your knee or lower leg lacks the strength to perform your daily activities
  • You are unable to walk or perform normal functions
  • You regularly experience severe pain
The ankle is one of the most common areas for sprains, fractures, and tendonitis. If diagnosed early, many ankle issues can be treated with non-surgical solutions such as splints, casting or injections. When surgery is necessary, our board-certified orthopedic physicians and care teams will ensure a care plan tailored to your needs. You may have an ankle injury if:

 

  • Your foot or ankle is stiff and doesn’t allow full movement
  • Your foot or ankle lacks strength to perform your daily activities
  • You are unable to walk or perform normal functions
  • You regularly experience severe pain
