A sports injury, overuse, arthritis or an accident may cause you intense pain in one of the major joints of your body. When you are no longer able to use that part of your body without pain, you might consider conservative care. While conservative care such as physical therapy, wraps or braces may provide some relief, it is not always effective at restoring your full range of motion or eliminating your pain. In the case of an acute injury, conservative care may simply not be an option. Our orthopedic surgeon in Elgin offers comprehensive surgical care that is designed to help you return to full functionality.
Our orthopedic surgeons have experience with all types of injuries, overuse damage and chronic conditions that cause damage and pain in the joints. No matter whether you are an athlete or someone who wants to be able to move around your home without pain, we are prepared to care for you using state-of-the-art surgical techniques that decrease recovery time and increase the chances at full restoration of your flexibility and range of motion.
Some of the surgical procedures performed by our surgeons include knee and hip replacement, cartilage repair and setting of fractured bones. Our orthopedic surgeons also care for people with meniscus and ACL injuries, rotator cuff damage, dislocated and fractured shoulders, cubit tunnel syndrome, golfer’s elbow, tennis elbow and more. We explain the advantages and risks of your procedure so that you can be fully informed. Throughout your treatment, we take the time to answer your questions and address any concerns that you have.
