HALLOWEEN ORTHOPEDIC FACTS: KNEE PAIN!

Even monsters need strong knees to chase their dreams!
Knee pain is one of the most common orthopedic problems — and it’s no trick, just pure biomechanics!

- Your knees carry up to 6x your body weight when climbing stairs.
- Arthritis, overuse, and ligament injuries are the usual culprits.
- Weak quadriceps and tight hamstrings increase knee stress — stretching helps!
- Cartilage doesn’t heal easily because it has little to no blood supply.
- Prevention is key — stay active, maintain a healthy weight, and strengthen your legs!

Don’t let knee pain haunt your steps — move smarter, not stiffer! 💪

HALLOWEEN ORTHOPEDIC FACTS: CLUBFOOT! 💀

Even little monsters deserve straight steps!
Clubfoot (Talipes Equinovarus) is a congenital condition where a baby’s foot twists inward and downward — but don’t worry, it’s treatable! 👣

Facts:
- Affects 1 in every 1,000 babies, and is twice as common in boys
- Caused by a mix of genetic and developmental factors
- The Ponseti Method — gentle stretching, weekly casting, and bracing — corrects over 90% of cases without surgery!
- Early diagnosis and treatment help babies grow up walking, running, and dancing like any other child!

At Arellano Orthopedics & Physical Therapy, we turn tiny twisted feet into strong, confident steps.

HALLOWEEN ORTHOPEDIC FACTS: FROZEN SHOULDER! 🎃

Even Freddy Krueger can’t slash his way out of this one!

Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis) happens when the capsule around your shoulder joint thickens and tightens — causing pain, stiffness, and loss of motion.

- It usually strikes between ages 40–60, especially in people with diabetes or thyroid problems.
- It goes through 3 creepy stages — Freezing (pain), Frozen (stiffness), and Thawing (slow recovery) — lasting up to 2 years!
- The best defense? Early movement, stretching, and therapy!

Don’t let shoulder pain haunt your nights — treat it before it becomes a real nightmare! 👻

HALLOWEEN ORTHOPEDIC FACTS: DIABETIC FOOT! 🎃

Even zombies fear diabetic !
When blood sugar runs wild, it’s not just your sweet tooth that suffers — your feet take the hit too! 👣

damages nerves and blood vessels, causing:
- Numbness (you might not feel injuries)
- Poor circulation (wounds heal slowly)
- Infection or gangrene (can lead to amputation!)

Did you know?
1 in 4 diabetics develop a foot ulcer in their lifetime — and many start from something as small as a blister.

Don’t let your feet turn frightful!
Check daily, wear proper shoes, and control your sugar — because early treatment saves limbs and lives.

HALLOWEEN ORTHOPEDIC FACTS: ELBOW PAIN! 🎃

Even vampires feel the bite of elbow pain!
If you’ve ever felt sharp pain when lifting or twisting your arm — you might be dealing with the dreaded “Tennis Elbow” (Lateral Epicondylitis) or “Golfer’s Elbow” (Medial Epicondylitis).

- These happen when tendons around your elbow get tiny tears from overuse or repetitive motion.
- Common in those who type, lift, or grip tools regularly — not just athletes!
- The elbow moves in flexion, extension, pronation, and supination — making it prone to strain.
- Rest, stretching, and physical therapy are your best defenses against chronic pain.
- Don’t ignore elbow pain — it can creep up and stay longer than a Halloween hangover!

Stay strong, stay spooky, and let’s keep those joints pain-free!

HALLOWEEN ORTHOPEDIC FACTS: BACK PAIN! 👻

Even scarecrows get back pain!
Did you know that 80% of adults experience back pain at least once in their lifetime — that’s almost scarier than seeing a ghost! 👀

Your lumbar spine carries most of your body weight — it’s the real MVP but also the most overworked part of your skeleton.

Poor posture, weak core muscles, and sitting too long are the usual villains behind that spine-tingling ache.

The best spell against back pain? Exercise, stretching, and proper posture!

This Halloween, don’t let back pain haunt you — take care of your spine before it goes crack! 💀

HALLOWEEN ORTHOPEDIC FACTS: GOUTY ARTHRITIS! 🎃

Even Frankenstein can’t escape the pain of gout!

When uric acid builds up in your joints, it forms tiny crystals that cause sudden, fiery pain — usually in the big toe.

BAD FOODS (High in Purine = High in Pain):
🍖 Red meat and organ meats (liver, kidney)
🦞 Shellfish (shrimp, crabs, mussels)
🍺 Beer, liquor, and sugary drinks
🐟 Sardines, anchovies, mackerel

GOOD FOODS (Your joints will thank you!):
🍒 Cherries and citrus fruits
🥛 Low-fat dairy (milk, yogurt)
🥦 Vegetables and whole grains
💧 Plenty of water to flush out uric acid

👻 This Halloween, don’t let gout haunt your joints!
Stay hydrated, eat smart, and keep those uric acid levels under control.

HALLOWEEN ORTHOPEDIC FACTS: FRACTURES! 🎃
Boo! 👻

Don’t let your bones get tricked this spooky season — here are some bone-chilling fracture facts you didn’t know!

1. Most fractures happen from falls. The wrist, ankle, and hip are the usual suspects — especially when you slip faster than you can scream “trick or treat!”

2. Children’s bones bend before they break. That’s why they often get greenstick fractures — think of it like snapping a fresh twig!

3. Smoking and poor diet delay bone healing. Ci******es and low calcium slow down the magic of bone regeneration — that’s one habit scarier than ghosts!

4. After age 50, fractures become more common. Osteoporosis weakens bones, making even a small fall cause a big break.

5. Bone heals itself — if you let it. With rest, proper nutrition, and good fixation, the body repairs fractures like a natural cast-maker.

Take care of your skeleton — it’s the only one you’ve got!

At Arellano Orthopedics & Physical Therapy, we fix the breaks and bring you back from the bone-dead!

HALLOWEEN ORTHOPEDIC FACTS: ARTHRITIS!

Feeling creaky, crunchy, or stiff as a mummy lately? You might be dealing with arthritis — and that’s no hocus pocus!

1. Arthritis means inflammation of the joints — causing pain, swelling, and stiffness that can make even simple moves feel like a trick!

2. There are over 100 types — but the most common are osteoarthritis (wear and tear) and rheumatoid arthritis (autoimmune).

3. Weather changes really can worsen joint pain — cold, damp air can make joints feel tighter (no witchcraft involved!).

4. Gentle movement keeps joints happy! Low-impact exercises like swimming and walking help prevent stiffness.

5. Eating right matters — omega-3s, fruits, and veggies can help fight inflammation.

So this Halloween, don’t let your joints haunt you!
Stay active, eat smart, and visit Arellano Orthopedics & Physical Therapy before the stiffness turns bone-chilling!
