Spine West Treatment Options

  • Seek urgent care if you experience severe pain, inability to bear weight, visible deformity, or symptoms of infection such as redness, warmth, and fever.

  • Knee pain can result from wear-and-tear conditions like osteoarthritis, overuse injuries such as tendonitis, or trauma that damages the ligaments or cartilage​.

  • Symptoms include pain during movement, swelling, stiffness, difficulty bending or straightening the knee, and instability or locking of the joint. Pain that persists or worsens warrants a medical evaluation.

  • Recovery varies by condition. Minor injuries may heal in weeks, while recovery from major injuries to the tendon, ligament, or joint could take several months. Compared to surgery, many treatments at Spine West including corticosteroid and hyaluronic acid injections as well as iovera° treatment can provide more immediate pain relief.
