"When can I run again after ACL surgery?"

It’s one of the most common questions Dr. Alvin Detterline hears—and the answer depends on more than just time. If your ACL injury was isolated (without damage to other structures in the knee), most patients begin cardiovascular exercise around the 3-month mark.

Recovery is gradual and structured: starting with low-impact activities like a stationary bike, progressing to the elliptical, and finally advancing to a guided jogging and running program.

Every patient is different, and your timeline may vary based on your specific injury and recovery progress. Dr. Detterline and the team at Towson Orthopaedic Associates are here to guide you every step of the way.

Towson Orthopaedic Associates proudly serves Towson, Baltimore, Baltimore County, and surrounding communities with expert orthopaedic care.

Shoulder Dislocation & Labral Tear Recovery with Dr. Mark Clough

At Towson Orthopaedic Associates, we guide patients through every step of recovery after shoulder dislocation and labral tear repair. Under the expert care of Dr. Mark Clough, most patients return home the same day of surgery in a sling to begin their healing journey.

The initial recovery includes a 4–6 week period of immobilization in the sling to allow proper healing. After that, physical therapy begins in stages—first focusing on regaining range of motion (ROM), followed by strengthening the muscles around the shoulder for long-term stability and function.

Trust Dr. Clough and the team at Towson Orthopaedic Associates for comprehensive, personalized care—proudly serving Towson, Baltimore, Baltimore County, and surrounding communities.

Achilles Tendon Rupture Explained by Dr. Jeff Brodie

The Achilles tendon is one of the strongest tendons in the human body—yet it also endures the highest stress, carrying the full weight of your body with every step, jump, or stride.

According to Dr. Jeff Brodie of Towson Orthopaedic Associates, this powerful tendon can rupture suddenly, especially in individuals who don’t properly warm up, stretch, or account for age-related changes in flexibility. Many patients describe feeling a “pop” or the sensation of being kicked in the back of the leg—when in fact, their Achilles has just ruptured.

Achilles injuries can happen to anyone. Recognizing the signs and seeking expert orthopaedic care right away is key to recovery.

When can you return to work after a hip replacement?

According to Dr. David Schroder of Towson Orthopaedic Associates, the answer depends on you—your job, your physical demands, and your recovery goals.

Those with physically demanding jobs may require more recovery time and a carefully adjusted plan, while others may be back to work sooner. Physical therapy is generally reserved for patients who are significantly limited before surgery, allowing for a more streamlined recovery process post-op.

Dr. Schroder works closely with patients to help them return to work safely, with personalized strategies tailored to their profession and lifestyle.

When knee pain starts limiting your lifestyle, it’s time to consider your options. According to Dr. Jack Steele, partial knee replacement offers key benefits: it’s a smaller surgery, recovery tends to be faster and easier, and—because only part of the knee is replaced—it often feels more like a natural knee in the long run.

For the right candidate, this targeted approach can provide lasting relief without the downtime of a total knee replacement.

Struggling with chronic muscle tightness or localized pain that won’t ease up? A trigger point injection may help break the cycle of discomfort.

Dr. Tiffany Tsay at Towson Orthopaedic Associates performs trigger point injections to target painful muscle knots, also known as myofascial trigger points. This minimally invasive procedure involves injecting a small amount of anesthetic—sometimes with a corticosteroid—directly into the affected area to relieve pain, restore function, and improve quality of life.

The treatment is quick, typically performed in-office, and many patients report noticeable relief soon after. Towson Orthopaedic Associates is proud to deliver expert, personalized care—serving patients across Towson, Baltimore, and neighboring areas.

What is a partial knee replacement—and how is it different from a total knee replacement? Dr. David Schroder breaks it down in this informative video.

A partial knee replacement involves replacing just one side of the knee, typically the inner (medial) side closest to the opposite knee. Small implants are used to replace part of the femur and tibia, preserving as much of your natural anatomy as possible.

While it may sound simpler than a total knee replacement, it’s actually more complex. Unlike a total knee replacement—where the entire joint can be aligned from scratch—a partial knee must match the patient’s existing anatomy with precision.

Towson Orthopaedic Associates proudly provides expert knee care to patients across Towson, Baltimore, Baltimore County, and surrounding communities.
