Orthopaedic Conditions, Treatments & Services
Fractures
Fractures, commonly known as broken bones, occur when there is a crack or break in the bone. This can happen due to falls, accidents, or trauma. Fractures can vary in severity from hairline fractures to complete breaks, and they may require different treatment approaches depending on the extent of the injury.
Arthritis
Arthritis is a condition that causes inflammation and stiffness in the joints, leading to pain and decreased mobility. There are different types of arthritis, including osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, each with its own causes and treatment options. While there is no cure for arthritis, various treatments can help manage symptoms and improve joint function.
Tendonitis
Tendonitis is inflammation or irritation of a tendon, which is the tissue that connects muscle to bone. It often occurs due to overuse or repetitive motions and can cause pain, swelling, and limited movement in the affected area. Rest, ice, physical therapy, and anti-inflammatory medications are commonly used to treat tendonitis and promote healing.
Ligament Injuries
Ligaments are tough bands of tissue that connect bones to each other and provide stability to the joints. Ligament injuries, such as sprains or tears, can occur from sudden twists or impacts that stretch or tear the ligament. Depending on the severity of the injury, treatment may involve rest, physical therapy, bracing, or in some cases, surgical repair.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition that causes numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand and arm. It occurs when the median nerve, which runs through the wrist, becomes compressed or irritated. Treatment options for carpal tunnel syndrome may include wrist splinting, corticosteroid injections, or surgery to relieve pressure on the nerve.
Total Shoulder Repairs
Total shoulder repairs involve surgical procedures to address various shoulder conditions, such as severe arthritis, rotator cuff tears, or shoulder instability. These procedures aim to restore function and alleviate pain by replacing damaged joint surfaces or repairing injured soft tissues. Rehabilitation following total shoulder repair is essential for optimizing outcomes and restoring range of motion and strength.
Recovery & Therapy Services
Our facility offers a range of treatments and services to address orthopaedic conditions effectively. These include fracture care, arthroscopic surgery, joint replacement surgery, orthotics and bracing, physical therapy, and rehabilitation services. Whether you require surgical intervention or non-surgical management, we utilize the latest techniques and technologies to ensure optimal outcomes for our patients.
Madison County Health Care System offers a robust Health and Rehab Services department to meet any post-procedure physical therapy needs you may have.
