You Don’t Need an MRI for Everything

Hot take: not every injury needs an MRI.

Sometimes you just need:
✔️ a good exam
✔️ on-site X-rays
✔️ someone who actually explains what’s going on

We’ll tell you when imaging is needed — and when it’s not.

From Playground Falls to Pickle Jar Injuries

Orthopedic care isn’t just for athletes.

It’s for:
• toddlers who found gravity
• teens who overdid practice
• adults who “just twisted wrong”
• grandparents who swear nothing even happened

Same building. Same team. Same day X-rays on site.

Because pain doesn’t care how old you are.

“I Thought It Would Just Go Away”

We see this sentence every single day.

The knee pain. The wrist pain. The “I slept weird and now my neck hates me” pain.
Spoiler: it didn’t go away.

The good news?
You can walk in, get on-site X-rays, and leave with answers — not just guesses.

We treat everyone from toddlers who fell off something they absolutely should not have climbed…
to grandparents who still think they’re 25.

Joints Love Consistency, Hate Surprises

Your joints prefer regular activity over sudden bursts of heroics.
They hate:
• sudden mileage
• random heavy lifting
• “I’ll just try it once”

Consistency keeps them calm.

You Have More Bones in Your Feet Than Your Spine

Each foot has 26 bones. That’s 52 bones doing shock absorption, balance, and propulsion… every single step.
So no, foot pain isn’t “no big deal.” It’s the foundation yelling for help.

Tuesday's Fun Fact: Babies are born with about 300 bones, while adults have 206. Over time, many bones fuse together as we grow. This fusion creates stronger, more stable structures—but it also means injuries in adults behave differently than in kids. Growth plates matter, and age changes how injuries are treated.
