🪑 Tight hips? It might be your chair’s fault.

We sit a lot—at our desks, in the car, on the couch. Over time, all that sitting shortens and weakens our hip flexors, which can lead to pain, poor posture, and even limit mobility. 😣

But here’s the good news:
Before jumping straight to an orthopedic surgeon, try focusing on hip flexor strength and flexibility. Sometimes, consistent movement and targeted exercises can make a real difference. 🏃‍♀️💪

Still hurting after stretching and strengthening? That’s your cue to book an appointment with a specialist at 440-709-1945.

👉 Start with your hips. Save yourself a trip (for now).

🦴 When to Bring in Reinforcements: Joint Health Matters 🩺

Most minor joint aches can be managed with self-care, but some signals are your body’s way of asking for backup. Here's when it's time to consult a professional:

🔹 Pain that wakes you up at night – a potential sign of deeper inflammation or tissue damage.
🔹 Visible swelling, redness, or warmth – indicators of active inflammation that may need intervention.
🔹 Pain that limits your daily activities or sticks around for more than 2 weeks – don’t wait, get it checked.

👟 Better yet? Prevent problems before they start.

✅ Move your joints through their full range of motion—movement is nourishment.
✅ Strengthen surrounding muscles to build support and protect vulnerable areas.
✅ Practice proper mechanics in everyday life—how you move matters.

That little twinge? It's not just an annoyance. It’s your body talking. Listen early. Act wisely. Keep your joints in the game for the long haul. 💪

If pain becomes to severe, give one of our orthopedic experts a call at 440-709-1945.

Patients often ask how to know the right time for surgery. There are many factors to consider when making such an important decision. Dr. Callahan has a specific take on how to evaluate the choice.

A significant connection exists between body weight and arthritis pain, where excess weight is considered a major risk factor for developing knee pain, particularly arthritis, due to the increased pressure placed on the knee joint with every step taken; essentially, the more weight you carry, the more stress is put on your knees, leading to potential pain and cartilage.

Research has proven that for every pound of weight, four pounds of pressure is put on the knee. So, excess pounds = excess pain.

Are you getting enough Vitamin D? Research published by the concluded that the proper amount of Vitamin D supplementation improved surgical outcomes for total knee arthroplasty patients. It reduced postoperative complications, including stiffness and function. Vitamin D plays a vital role in calcium absorption, without enough of it there is a weaker implant-to-bone interface. Talk to your primary care physician about how much Vitamin D you should be taking on a daily basis.

If you are a runner or athlete that experiences hip pain, limping, difficulty walking (especially when trying to step sideways) or experience hip dropping when standing on one leg, you may be a candidate for hip/gluteal abductor surgery.

Repeated stress from activities like running, jumping, or trauma can lead to tears in these tendons. This surgical procedure involves repairing or reconstructing the torn tendons of the gluteal muscles. Small incisions are used with a camera and specialized instruments to visualize and repair the tear minimally invasively. If you are experiencing hip pain, schedule your consultation with one of our hip specialists today at 440-709-1945.
