Joint Stiffness Treatment
Joint stiffness treatment focuses on relieving pain and improving mobility in affected joints. Dr. Mayank employs a comprehensive approach, including physical therapy, medication management, and minimally invasive procedures to address the underlying causes of stiffness.
Understanding Joint Stiffness
Joint stiffness is a common condition where joints lose their normal range of motion, causing pain and functional limitations. Dr. Mayank provides comprehensive treatment for joint stiffness through various approaches including physical therapy, joint mobilization techniques, arthroscopic release procedures, and minimally invasive surgeries. Treatment focuses on restoring mobility, reducing pain, and improving overall joint function through personalized care plans.
Causes and Conditions Treated
Joint stiffness can result from various conditions:
Post-surgical stiffness and adhesions
Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
Post-traumatic joint contractures
Arthritis-related stiffness
Prolonged immobilization effects
Inflammatory joint conditions
Age-related joint degeneration
Scar tissue formation
Previous injuries with incomplete rehabilitation
Treatment Outcomes and Recovery
Joint stiffness treatment significantly improves range of motion, reduces pain, and restores functional independence. Dr. Mayank's comprehensive approach combines surgical intervention when necessary with structured rehabilitation programs. Most patients experience gradual improvement over 6-12 weeks, with continued progress for several months. Treatment success rates are high, with patients regaining most or all of their lost joint mobility and returning to their desired activity levels.
