HOW TO TELL IF ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY IS RIGHT FOR YOU

At Northeast Spine and Sports Medicine, we know that the decision to receive orthopedic surgery is not always an easy one. We understand that many patients view surgery as a last resort, and most people would rather find relief through conservative methods. However, if you’ve been suffering from long-term joint, muscle, or tendon pain, or have chronic back problems, etc., and have found very little to no relief with other methods, then you may want to consider consulting with an orthopedic surgeon. The sooner you get to our office to receive advice about the type of pain you’re experiencing, the faster you can start treating your problem. During your initial consultation with an orthopedic surgeon on our team, the doctor will determine where the pain is coming from, what is causing the pain, and explain what treatment options are available aside from surgery. You should also expect to learn more about our many other pain management treatment options such as injections, physical therapy, and more. Inevitably, orthopedic surgery may be necessary to relieve pain and improve function for certain types of spine, nerve, or joint conditions, usually after non-surgical orthopedic treatments have failed. Feel confident that our orthopedic surgeons use the most advanced surgical techniques and provide diligent follow-up care.

OUR SURGEONS WORK CLOSELY WITH OUR POST-SURGICAL REHABILITATION DEPARTMENT Northeast Spine and Sports Medicine’s orthopedic surgeons will communicate closely with our post-surgical rehabilitation department to ensure that you have the best possible outcome and can get back to living. Furthermore, they work closely with our physical therapists to create a custom rehabilitation program so that your individual needs and goals are addressed. We know that orthopedic surgery can leave you feeling tired and weak for several weeks, so they also make sure they design a program that helps you feel normal as soon as possible. In addition to orthopedic surgery, you can also turn to Northeast Spine and Sports Medicine for: • Spinal manipulation services

• Joint injections • PRP injections • Acupuncture treatments
