When those first sunny weekends come, so does a sudden jump in activity. Yardwork, pickleball, hiking, long runs… your body notices.

A few reminders as you ramp up: Start slower than you think you need to, warm up before you “go”, and don’t ignore swelling, instability, or sharp pain. If something doesn’t feel right, get it checked sooner rather than later.

Not all knee pain requires surgery, but persistent pain should not be ignored.

If pain lasts more than a couple of weeks, causes swelling or instability, or keeps you from moving comfortably, it may be time to have it evaluated.

Aches and pains are not always just part of growing.

If a young athlete is struggling with pain, swelling, or limited movement, early evaluation can help prevent bigger issues down the road. We are here to support kids and families every step of the way.

Some of the Slocum Orthopedics team recently returned from an 8-day medical mission trip to the Dominican Republic with Restore Together Foundation for Care.

This marked Slocum’s fourth trip to the Dominican Republic, and included participation alongside 65 volunteer healthcare professionals from across the U.S. During the trip, the volunteer team provided care to 188 patients. In total, 81 surgeries were performed, including 11 total knee replacement procedures.

Thank you to the surgeons, therapists, nurses, APPs, support staff, and partner organizations who contributed their time and expertise to this effort!
