With any surgery, there are always risks. These include reactions to anesthesia, bleeding, infection, stiffness, and nerve damage. Your doctor will discuss the risks associated with your specific procedure.

The most common orthopedic injuries are sprains, strains, fractures, and dislocations. Injuries can occur when playing sports or while exercising. Sports injuries can result from accidents, inadequate training, improper use of protective devices, or insufficient stretching or warm-up exercises.

Biologics are typically injections or medications used to target specific cells and proteins in the immune system. Treatments such as PRP (Plasma Rich Proteins) help your own immune system repair damage to soft tissue structures, which are common in orthopedic injuries. Biologics are a more natural approach proven to be very helpful in the treatment of many orthopedic conditions.
