Injuries
of
the
knee
in
athletes
vary
somewhat
from
injuries
in
other
patients.
This
is
due
to
several
factors.
The
degree
of
conditioning
and
quality
of
the
tissues
in
athletic
knees
are
higher.
The
types
of
injury
are
more
sports
specific
(for
example,
anterior
cruciate
ligament
tears).
Finally,
the
expectations
of
the
athletes
for
post
treatment
functional
outcome
tend
to
be
higher
due
to
their
sporting
interests.
Thus,
surgical
techniques
have
evolved
in
the
last
10
to
20
years
that
have
allowed
for
less
invasive
repair
and
reconstruction
of
knee
injuries
in
the
athlete
to
allow
a
high
level
of
return
to
function
with
minimal
invasiveness.

At Haq Orthopedic Hospital we provide the highest quality and effective care for all spine problems. Each patient is carefully evaluated by a team of spine specialists, who develop an appropriate plan to treat the individual's specific needs. The team includes orthopaedic surgeons, pain management physicians, physical therapists, and electrodiagnostic specialists.
Most people in their lifetime will experience some type of back pain. Typically pain is caused by an injury or by degeneration in the spine. Most problems are self-limited; they resolve within a few days by using over-the-counter medications and limiting activities. When back pain is severe or lasts for more than a week or two, an evaluation by a physician is recommended.

Many different types of arthritis can affect the hip and knee joints, but the most common of these is osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is essentially a gradual "wear and tear" type joint destruction that is manifest by pain, swelling, and loss of function. It usually affects people in their senior years, but can occasionally occur in middle age.Initial treatment for osteoarthritis of the hip or knee is conservative, consisting of rest, avoidance of vigorous weight bearing activities, and the use of non-narcotic analgesic and or anti inflammatory medications. With worsening symptoms a cane or a knee brace may be helpful. For more severe symptoms, an injection of cortisone into the joint is frequently advised and can be quite helpful.

The
foot
and
ankle
provide
a
foundation
and
bear
the
weight
of
the
entire
body.
Keeping
the
patient's
feet
and
ankles
free
of
pain
will
allow
them
greater
mobility
and
freedom
to
pursue
activities
they
enjoy.
Patients
experience
a
number
of
foot
and
ankle
problems
including
bunions,
heel
pain,
neuromas,
hammertoes
and
flat
feet,
all
of
which
can
result
in
severe
pain.
Foot
and
ankle
pain
can
make
a
patient
feel
tired
and
irritable,
often
interfering
with
the
ability
to
perform
many
daily
tasks.
Many
factors
contribute
to
the
cause
of
pain
in
the
foot
and
ankle,
including
poorly
fitting
shoes,
heredity,
aging
and
disease.
Athletes
and
dancers
sometimes
experience
unique
foot
and
ankle
problems
related
to
the
stress
on
these
joints
while
participating
in
practice
and
events.
The
physicians
at
Ozark
Orthopaedics
have
experience
in
correcting
and/or
preventing
foot
and
ankle
injury
for
these
active
individuals.

The mobility of the shoulder makes it prone to injury. The shoulder joint is used in pushing, pulling, reaching and swinging our arms. Even simple tasks like getting dressed in the morning involves use of the shoulder.
Because it is used so much and is so complex, problems with the shoulder can occur over time or due to a sudden injury. Fortunately, your orthopaedic surgeon can provide relief from the symptoms caused by such injuries.
When these vulnerable joints are injured, our lifestyle suffers. From the repair of rotator cuff injuries, to total shoulder replacement surgery, to elbow reconstruction, HAQ Orthopaedic offer thorough knowledge and experience to restore your shoulder and elbow function.

problems
can
occur
at
any
age.
With
the
medical
technology
available
today,
it
is
no
longer
necessary
to
endure
the
pain
and
tolerate
the
limitation
of
activities
associated
with
deteriorated
joints.
The
knee
and
hip
joint
are
the
major
weight-bearing
joints
in
the
human
body.
The
considerable
stress
that
these
joints
are
subject
to
during
a
lifetime
often
results
in
extensive
wear
of
the
joint
surfaces.
These
joint
surfaces
are
covered
by
a
spongy
soft
tissue
called
cartilage.
The
cartilage
normally
serves
as
a
lubricating
surface
and
allows
free
gliding
of
the
joint
surfaces
back
and
forth
as
one
goes
about
daily
activities.
When
the
cartilage
wears
to
the
point
that
it
no
longer
adequately
covers
the
underlying
bone,
significant
pain
results
with
activity.
