Hip & Knee
Our hips and knees bear our full body weight while
allowing for an incredibly wide range of motion,
making them susceptible to injury and arthritis.
There are many types of hip and knee problems that
are the result of sports injury, trauma or
arthritis.
Arthritis can affect the hip and knee
joints, with the most common form being
osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis is a "wear and
tear" type arthritis or joint destruction whose
symptoms include pain, swelling, and stiffness.
Osteoarthritis can affect people in their senior
years, and can occur in middle age and in athletes.
Tennessee Orthopedics offers comprehensive
care that includes prevention, early diagnosis, and
treatment of hip and knee problems. Our hip and knee
expertise encompasses treatment of everything from
