JOINT HEALTH

Joint pain and immobility can interfere with your ability to lead an active lifestyle. Millions of Americans have cartilage damage that can be the cause of the knee & hip pain they are experiencing. Cartilage damage in joints can occur from an injury, osteoarthritis, or normal “wear and tear.”

The FORM Hip & Knee Institute was created to offer the latest state-of-the-art techniques to treat joint damage. Recent advancements in the field of joint replacement surgery allow our surgeons to provide improved outcomes and less downtime for patients.

We believe in a personal approach to joint health. Our surgeons take the time to understand each patient’s unique joint problems, and create a personalized treatment plan that fits their symptoms as well as their lifestyles. There are non-surgical options that should be explored, and our surgeons consider the more conservative treatments before joint replacement surgery.

Non-surgical options for knee & hip pain include:

  • PRP (Plasma Rich Protein) Injections
  • Cartilage Regenerations
  • Physical Therapy
  • Knee & Hip Resurfacing
  • Partial Joint Replacement
  • Osteotomies
  • Knee & Hip Arthroplasty

If you have had a total joint replacement and are having pain, our surgeons are experts in total joint revision surgery.

Cartilage damage in your joints can result in one or more of these symptoms:

  • Limited range of motion in your joint
  • Joint stiffness after long periods of sitting or lying down
  • Joint swelling or tenderness
  • Grinding sensation in your knee, hip, or shoulder
  • Steady pain in your joint

If you are feeling any of these symptoms, contact our office to schedule an appointment today.
