Joint Pain Treatment From Orthopedic Experts Practicing in Freehold, NJ
Joint pain treatment can take many forms, just as the pain itself can stem from many causes, including osteoarthritis, sporting mishaps, overuse, accidents, and work-related injuries. The sports medicine specialists at New Jersey Joints in Freehold, NJ, can recommend an optimal plan for treating your damaged shoulder, hip, knee, or ankle depending on your age, condition, lifestyle, and desired outcome.
At New Jersey Joints, we adhere to a conservative treatment philosophy whenever possible. This means that we generally view surgery as a last resort for addressing joint damage. Some nonsurgical options that are typically among the first we consider for joint pain treatment (or to support a patient’s post-surgical recovery) include:
- Medications
- Physical therapy
- Bracing
- Massage therapy
- Hyaluronic acid injections
- Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy
- Acupuncture
Over time, conservative joint pain treatment usually proves to be effective enough to eliminate the need for surgery. However, some people ultimately consider surgical intervention if relief continues to elude them. The board-certified, fellowship-trained surgeons at New Jersey Joints in Freehold perform minimally invasive procedures using the latest surgical techniques and technologies to provide effective joint pain treatment. Some of the procedures that we regularly perform include:
- Minimally invasive total knee replacement surgery
- Minimally invasive partial knee replacement surgery
