Arthritis care in sports medicine focuses on managing joint pain and preserving function through a combination of activity modification, physical therapy, injections, and biologic treatments.
Appropriate for patients with osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis, or post-traumatic arthritis affecting any joint. Treatment is tailored to the severity of arthritis and the patient activity goals.
Your physician will evaluate your joint, review imaging, and develop a treatment plan. Options may include anti-inflammatory medications, corticosteroid injections, PRP, physical therapy, bracing, and guidance on activity modification.
Risks depend on specific treatments used. Injection risks include temporary soreness and infection. Your physician will review all options with you.
