- Osteoporosis
- ArthritisOsteoarthitis, rheumatoid arthitis and traumatic arthritis are the three most common types of arthitis that often are the cause of hip pain. Otheoarthitis usually occurs in elderly individuals, especially those with arthitis in the family history. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder which causes inflammation, pain and stiffiness. Traumatic arthritis can occur after a hip injury or fracture.
- Plantar FasciitisYou're more likely to get plantar fasciitis if you are a woman, if you are overweight, or if you have a job that requires a lot of walking or standing on hard surfaces. You are also at risk if you walk or run for exercise, especially if you have tight calf muscles that limit how far you can flex your ankles. People with very flat feet or very high arches are also more prone to foot injuries like plantar fasciitis.

- Carpal Tunnel SyndromeA malfunctioning nerve causes carpal tunnel syndrome which can cause wrist pain, hand pain and even elbow pain. Nerves relay signals between the brain and the body. In people with carpal tunnel syndrome, these nerve signals have trouble passing through the relatively tight space of the carpal tunnel, which is in the area along the wrist. This causes an increase in pressure on the nerve inside the carpal tunnel which results in hand and wrist pain.
- Diabetes Care
- ThyroidThis increased in pressure on the carpal tunnel nerve is the primary problem, but some medical conditions make nerves more likely to be affected by increased pressure (diabetes and thyroid disease, for example). Older individuals are also more likely to have carpal tunnel syndrome. It is usually difficult to pinpoint the specific reason for why someone has carpal tunnel syndrome.
- MRIAt My Ortho Team, we have the ability to perform both traditional MRI and open MRI procedures. This gives our doctors the ability to more easily diagnois and treat orthopedic conditions and injuries.
- X-Rays
- Computed TomographyA traditional MRI unit looks like a large tube surrounded by a magnet. Patients lie inside the tube during the procedure. Unlike an X-Ray or CT (computed tomography) scan, the MRI does not use ionzing radiation. While the patient is inside the magnetic field, radio waves send and receive signals that are detected by the electric coils that produce the magnetic field. These signals are sent to the computer and processed to generate detailed images of the body. Often, an MRI is better at revealing abnormal or diseased tissue that X-Ray's and CT scans.

- Hip ReplacementToday, many surgeons use shoulder replacement surgery. About 23,000 people have the surgery each year. This compares to more than 700,000 Americans a year who have knee and hip replacement surgery.
- Knee ReplacementTotal knee replacement or partial knee replacement may be the best option for you if your knee has been severely damaged or if you have severe, persevering knee pain. Knee replacement surgery can relieve your knee pain, correct leg deformities and help you return to your regular level of daily activity. The first knee replacement surgery was performed in 1968 and since then the advance of technologies, techniques and surgical materials has led to an increase in its effectiveness. Every year around 581,000 knee replacement surgeries are performed throughout the Unites States.

- Plantar FasciitisOne common cause of foot pain and ankle pain is an injury called plantar fasciitis (fashee-EYE-tiss). If your first few steps out of bed in the morning cause severe foot pain in the heel of your foot, you may have plantar fasciitis. It's an overuse foot injury affecting the sole (bottom) or flexor surface (plantar) of the foot. A diagnosis of plantar fasciitis means you have inflamed the tough, fibrous band of tissue (fascia) connecting your heel bone to the base of your toes.
