common conditions

Conditions we treat with excellent care

• Neck pain

  One of the most common conditions that causes neck pain is cervical spondylosis, a degenerative condition caused by wear and tear of the cervical spine. It often leads to stiffness, muscle strain, and discomfort in the neck region.

• Shoulder pain

  One of the most common conditions that causes shoulder pain is rotator cuff tendinitis, an inflammation of the tendons around the shoulder joint. It often results from overuse, causing pain and limited range of motion in the shoulder.

• Elbow pain

  One of the most common conditions that causes elbow pain is tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis), a condition caused by overuse of the elbow joint. It leads to pain and tenderness on the outer part of the elbow, often affecting grip strength and arm movement.

• Wrist pain

  One of the most common conditions that causes wrist pain is carpal tunnel syndrome, a condition caused by compression of the median nerve as it passes through the wrist. It results in pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand and wrist, often affecting grip and hand function.

• Hip and knee pain

  One of the most common conditions that causes both hip and knee pain is osteoarthritis (OA), a degenerative joint condition caused by the gradual breakdown of cartilage. It leads to pain, stiffness, and inflammation in both the hip and knee, affecting movement and daily activities.

• Ankle pain

  One of the most common conditions that causes ankle pain is a sprained ankle, which occurs when the ligaments supporting the ankle are stretched or torn. This leads to swelling, pain, and difficulty bearing weight on the affected ankle.

• Back pain

  One of the most common conditions that causes back pain is a herniated disc, which occurs when the soft tissue between the spine’s vertebrae pushes out, irritating nearby nerves. This results in pain, stiffness, and sometimes numbness or weakness in the back and legs.
