JOINT PAIN TREATMENT

Trauma, fractures, and dislocations can occur unexpectedly, often due to accidents, falls, or sports injuries, causing pain and temporarily affecting your ability to perform daily activities. Immediate and appropriate care is essential to promote healing, restore function, and avoid complications. As a specialist, I focus on treating these injuries with precision to help you return to your normal life as quickly and safely as possible. What’s the difference? Fractures: A bone fracture happens when a bone breaks due to trauma or pressure. This can range from small cracks to complete breaks. Dislocations: A dislocation occurs when a joint, like the shoulder or knee, is pushed out of its normal position. This can be incredibly painful and often causes swelling or difficulty moving the joint. Soft Tissue Injuries: Trauma isn’t limited to bones and joints; it can also involve muscles, ligaments, and tendons. Soft tissue injuries often require specific care for full recovery. Treatment Options Casting and Bracing: These methods immobilize the injured bone or joint, allowing natural healing without further strain. Casting is used for fractures, while braces may be used for sprains or dislocations. Surgical Interventions: In cases where the fracture is severe or the dislocation has caused significant damage, surgery may be required to realign bones and stabilize joints. Rehabilitation: After initial treatment, physiotherapy plays a critical role in helping you regain movement, strength, and flexibility. It’s essential for ensuring you fully recover and can return to your routine activities. Each treatment is personalized based on the injury’s severity, your overall health, and your specific recovery needs. Through advanced diagnostic tools, such as X-rays or MRIs, I work with you to create an individualized plan that focuses on long-term recovery and minimizing the risk of future injuries.

Joint pain can affect your ability to move, work, and enjoy daily activities. It’s often caused by conditions like arthritis, overuse, or injury. My goal is to identify the root cause of your pain and provide treatments that restore your joint health and mobility. Common causes of joint pain include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bursitis, and injuries like sprains. These conditions can result in swelling, stiffness, and discomfort, making even simple movements challenging. With a tailored treatment approach, I help patients overcome pain and regain their active lifestyles. Treatment options include: Medications: Anti-inflammatory drugs and pain relievers to reduce discomfort. Joint Injections: Corticosteroid or hyaluronic acid injections for targeted pain relief. Physical Therapy: Exercises to strengthen muscles and improve joint flexibility.

Muscle pain, or myalgia, can occur when muscles are used too much, injured, or affected by certain health conditions. It’s a common problem that can happen to anyone, regardless of age or activity level. Whether it’s a mild ache or sharp pain, muscle discomfort doesn’t have to stop you from doing your everyday activities. Common causes include muscle strain, injury, stress, and conditions like fibromyalgia or myositis. Muscle pain can also be triggered by poor posture or doing the same movement repeatedly. Understanding the cause of the pain is key to finding the right treatment. Treatment options include: • Rest and Ice Therapy: To reduce inflammation and promote healing. • Physiotherapy: Targeted exercises and stretches to strengthen and relieve muscles. • Trigger Point Injections: For immediate pain relief in localized areas.
