Medical Weight Loss

Ultrasound
Orthopaedic Surgery Associates is a practice providing comprehensive evaluation, meaning that, before establishing a diagnosis, our doctors take into consideration many different factors, including the full medical history of the patient. Our orthopedic surgeons in Boca Raton and Boynton Beach – as well as our other doctors and therapeutic staff – also conduct a variety of diagnostic procedures (such as X-rays, MRIs, ultrasound, among others) which help establish the right diagnosis and implement effective treatment.
MRI
People are often concerned about being exposed to radiation during an X-ray. However, the part of your body being examined will only be exposed to a low level of radiation for a fraction of a second. X-rays use small amounts of radiation to create images of your body. The level of radiation exposure is considered safe for most adults, but not for a developing baby. If you are pregnant or believe you could be pregnant, tell your doctor before you have an X-ray. They may suggest a different imaging method, such as an MRI.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
The diagnosis of a labral tear usually begins with a physical examination, where a doctor will assess the range of motion of the hip. Through tests such as X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs, the labrum can be closely examined to determine any defects.

Arthroscopic surgery, or arthroscopy, is a minimally invasive orthopedic procedure used to diagnose and treat joint problems. It entails using a narrow scope, known as an arthroscope, and specialized surgical tools to gain access to a joint through small “keyhole” incisions.

Orthopedic Surgery
At some point in their lives, many people require the care of an orthopedic surgeon: little children who fall from the monkey bars on the playground and end up with broken wrists and elbows, high school basketball players who twist and tear up their knees, and elderly men and women with chronic joint pain. Each of these patients will seek the expertise of a specialist in orthopedic surgery – highly trained physicians who treat the diseases and injuries of the entire musculoskeletal system, from the neck down to the toes. Although considered specialists, orthopedic surgeons actually have a rather broad knowledge base and can address a wide spectrum of injury and disease.
Arthroscopy
In some cases, arthroscopy may be necessary to confirm the diagnosis. This is a minimally invasive procedure where a scope with a camera is inserted into the hip joint to view any injured tissue. The last step to diagnosing a labral tear is an injection of anesthetic into the hip, which will confirm the source of the pain. Diagnosing a labral tear requires careful examination and testing, but once finished, it can ensure the best treatment plan is put in place.
Hip Replacement
In some cases, doctors may perform both surgeries at the same time, which is called a bilateral surgery. However, it is usually recommended to do a unilateral surgery, starting with the hip replacement first, since this procedure is straightforward. A knee replacement surgery is more complicated and will require more recovery time than the hips.
Knee Replacement
Hip and knee replacement surgeries may be undertaken successively, following a thorough diagnosis and assessment from the doctor. If the patient presents symptoms that are similar and on the same sides of the body, then the surgeries may be spaced out within six weeks to three months of each other.
Knee Arthroscopy
The most common arthroscopic procedures are shoulder and knee arthroscopy. These joints’ spaces are large enough to accommodate the surgical instruments.
Reconstructive Surgery
It can take up to a year to fully recover from spinal reconstructive surgery. It is best to only do activities of daily living for the first six months. Avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting until given the okay from your orthopedic surgeon.

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
The specialists at Orthopaedic Surgery Associates treat a range of orthopedic conditions, including sports injuries. We are known as one of Florida’s most progressive groups for diagnosing and treating sports-related injuries of the hand, knee, hip, spinal, foot, as well as other orthopedic injuries.
Physical Therapy
Not all injuries require surgery. Some conditions can be treated using non-operative methods. These include physical therapy, bracing, pain management, and non-invasive procedures.
Tennis Elbow
Slipped Disc
A slipped disc – known as a prolapsed or herniated disc – occurs when one of the discs that sit between the bones of the spine (the vertebrae) is damaged and presses on the nerves. This can cause back pain and neck pain, as well as symptoms such as numbness, a tingling sensation, or weakness in other areas of the body. According to our orthopedic surgeons at Orthopaedic Surgery Associates, if the nonsurgical treatments fail to relieve the patient’s pain, a disc surgery is in order. To find out about surgery options for your slipped disc, contact our orthopedic surgeons in Boca Raton and Boynton Beach for a consultation. We can help you get back to your normal life and prescribe an appropriate rehabilitation program for your specific condition(s).
