  • I have chronic knee pain

    This is not a question they can be answered without a comprehensive physical, series of x-rays for the knee, and review of previous surgical interventions. I would recommend having an evaluation by an orthopedic surgeon to discuss your particular situation. READ MORE

  • Stabbing knee pain when lying down sleeping

    There are a few different sources of knee pain in adolescents. The best place to start is with a diagnosis. The knee should be evaluated by a sports medicine trained physician or orthopedic surgeon so that a proper H&P can be performed. If conservative treatments are not improving the pain then advanced imaging will likely be performed to further evaluate for an underlying cause. READ MORE

  • Recurring hip pain

    The source of hip pain is hard to discuss without knowing the specific location of the pain. Most of the time hip pain can be treated non-operatively. Seeing a sports trained physian or orthopedic staff may prove beneficial to get you pointed in the right direction. READ MORE

  • Inner thigh hurts when walking fast

    It is hard to tell without a formal history and physical. There are several muscles in the inner thigh (adductor compartment and medial hamstrings) that can develop tendinitis. A good initial approach would be to perform stretching of these areas as part of a knee strengthening program. If symptoms persist then a medical evaluation should be performed. READ MORE

  • ACL repair

    That depends on several factors. A few aspects of this are as follows: patient age, degree or percentage of tear, level of arthritis, patient activity level, other tears / injury, etc. Regardless, I would recommend having an ACL tear evaluated by an orthopaedic surgeon so the appropriate treatment can be started.
