Knee pain can make life difficult, all while slowing you down. Whether your pain is from a sports injury, everyday wear and tear, or something more chronic, many people reach a point where they need more than rest, ice, and painkillers.
How long have you been toughing it out? Unlike emergency or persistent organ-related health concerns, addressing problems with your joints, bones, or muscles can often get put on the back burner.
How do you know whether it’s time to see an orthopedic doctor or orthopedic surgeon? Dr. Chris Mellano explains the specialties of each to help you decide.
Dr. Mellano’s mission is to give his patients the freedom to keep doing the activities they love. If you are struggling with joint pain, arthritis, lack of mobility, or joint inflammation, contact Dr. Mellano for a consultation so he can help you get moving again.
