The knee is a complex joint that is comprised of muscles, tendons and ligaments; as well as the meniscus which contributes to the stability of the joint and increases the surface area supporting the weight of the femur. The joint is made up of the femur, patella, tibia and fibula and is divided into three compartments. Western Orthopedics and Sports Medicine has a team of physicians who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the knee. Common disorders that cause pain and dysfunction with the knee include overuse injuries, congenital ailments, sprains, ligament injury, fractures and arthritis. We treat adolescents, recreational and collegiate athletes, active adults as well as seniors. Treatments offered by our team of physicians include conservative non- surgical management, injections, bracing and surgical correction. At Western Orthopedics and Sports Medicine each patient will have a treatment plan that best suites their specific needs- with the goal that the patient returns to normal, everyday activities with good function and without pain. |
