Did you have a joint replacement , or a surgery in the past?
Do you still have pain in that joint?
Your treatment options are limited now. You CAN NOT inject a replaced joint due to the risk of infection.
There are some treatments that we have found somewhat effective in the treatment of post surgery pain.
These include topical medications, shockwave, and cold laser therapy. However these are purely experimental , and insurance will not cover them.
*NOTE TO PATIENTS: If you are interested in these treatments you will need to schedule a “NEW PATIENT visit” to discuss your medical history with Dr Kanaan first. This is usually covered under your insurance plan.
