Let’s look at what orthopedists do to keep their patients moving to accomplish their daily tasks and enjoy life to the fullest, courtesy of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons.
- For patients experiencing joint pain and arthritis from either sports injuries or wear and tear, we diagnose and treat the underlying causes, discuss pain management strategies, prescribe physical therapy sessions, and, when necessary, recommend surgical options including joint replacement.
- We have years of training and experience in setting broken bones and realigning dislocated joints, utilizing techniques that include casts, splints, and surgery, to restore proper bone function.
- Back and neck pain are probably the most common reasons patients seek out our care. We help identify the underlying cause and recommend appropriate treatment options, which might include medication, physical therapy, and in some cases, minimally invasive procedures.
- We are experts in diagnosing, treating, and rehabilitating a range of sports-related injuries for athletes at all levels, from ligament tears to muscle strains.
- Foot and ankle conditions including bunions, hammertoes, plantar fasciitis and ankle sprains can be debilitating and rob you of your independence. These are treated by our orthopedist using non-surgical or surgical options, depending on the severity of the condition.
- Besides treating injuries, we also play a major role in preventing them! We advise our patients on choosing the appropriate exercises to strengthen muscles, improve joint flexibility, and prevent future issues affecting their bones, tendons, ligaments, and joints.
If you’re experiencing persistent pain affecting your bones, joints or muscles, the orthopedist at J. Turner Vosseller, MD is the most qualified expert for diagnosing, treating and devising a long term plan to keep you moving in the right direction! Please contact us today for an appointment.
