🧐 Can an injured meniscus be repaired? Yes, it's possible!

💪 In many cases, we can repair your meniscus and preserve its protective function in the knee.

🏆 Our team uses cutting-edge technology: a meniscal repair system specifically designed to maximize repair with minimal anatomical disruption. This means we preserve as much healthy meniscal tissue as possible while repairing the injury.

👉 Why is repair important instead of removal?
✓ You preserve the natural function of your meniscus
✓ You protect your articular cartilage long-term
✓ You reduce the risk of premature osteoarthritis
✓ Better functional recovery

✅ Meniscal repair is a viable option especially in young patients, recent injuries, and in areas with good vascularization of the meniscus.

📍 Each case is unique. If you have meniscus pain or injury, schedule an evaluation to determine if you're a candidate for repair.

🔴 MOST COMMON SHOULDER CONDITIONS

Shoulder problems are not just due to injury and overuse. Chronic inflammation or lifestyle can all contribute to the symptoms associated with shoulder problems.

⚠️ Chronic shoulder conditions, if they are not treated properly, can lead to chronic pain and dysfunction, making it difficult to perform everyday tasks.

Some of the common shoulder conditions are:

1️⃣ Osteoarthritis - When the bones rub together causing significant pain and swelling.

2️⃣ Rotator Cuff Disease - Caused by progressive wear and tear of the tendon tissue over time. Repetitive overhead activity or prolonged bouts of heavy lifting can irritate or damage the tendon.

3️⃣ Instability - Can happen as a result of a sudden injury, from overuse or from repetitive motions and that can lead to repeated shoulder dislocations.

4️⃣ Adhesive capsulitis (also known as frozen shoulder) - Is an inflammatory condition characterized by shoulder stiffness, pain, and significant loss of passive range of motion.

5️⃣ Tendonitis - is an inflammation of your rotator cuff and/or biceps tendon.
Bursitis - occurs when fluid builds up in bursae that cushion the space between bones and tissue.

🤔 WHEN SHOULD YOU SEE A SPECIALIST?

For shoulder joint pain:

🔻 There is sudden pain in your shoulder
🔻 You notice shoulder deformity
🔻 You can’t lift your arm away from your body
🔻 You have intense swelling
🔻 You felt a pop after a fall or injury

🤝 6 TIPS - HEALTHY KNEES

👉 A healthy knee joint is one that can move smoothly and painlessly through its normal range of motion. Some tips to keep your knees and other joints healthy are:

✅ Keep moving
Regular physical activity helps maintain joint function, including strength and range of motion in the knees.

✅ Strengthen the muscles that support your knees
Strong muscles can absorb some of the pressure placed on the knee joint and prevent injuries.

✅ Perfect your posture
Poor posture can cause misalignment of your knees and hips, leading to pain and inflammation.

✅ Choose the right shoes
Shoes that fit well and provide adequate cushioning and support can reduce the impact on your knees when walking or running.

✅ Maintain a healthy body
Excess pounds puts more stress on your knees and can increase the risk of arthritis.

✅ Listen to your knee pain
If you experience any pain, swelling, stiffness, or clicking in your knees, consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
