Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Injuries

The ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) is one of four major ligaments of the knee. ACL injuries are common in sports that involve sudden changes of direction, such as football and soccer, but they can also occur during regular daily activities.

Frozen Shoulder

Frozen shoulder is a common source of chronic (ongoing) pain, inflammation and restricted movement in the shoulder. Frozen shoulder commonly occurs in people age 50 and older as a result of overuse.

Knee Conditions

Knee problems are very common, and anyone can have them. Mechanical knee problems are caused by a direct blow or sudden movement that strains the knee, or osteoarthritis in the knee, resulting from wear and tear on the parts. Inflammatory knee problems can result from certain rheumatic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosis (lupus). These diseases cause swelling that can damage the knees permanently.
