Joint Pain

There are over two hundred different joints in the human body. These joints are complex structures that could produce pain if they are not working properly. Injury, diseases, degenerative processes, and other factors can contribute to the dysfunction of a joint. Additionally, joint pain can also interfere with the way you perform activities of daily living (ADLs), and it can also interfere with gainful employment.

To properly and effectively manage joint pain it is necessary to identify the true origin of the pain. Whether the joint pain is caused by damage to the ligaments, muscles, cartilage, or osseous structures, an accurate diagnosis impacts the design of the treatment plan.
