Foot and Ankle
The foot and ankle work together in the human body to provide balance, stability, and movement. The ankle is made up of three bones that are connected by muscles, tendons, and ligaments, and it serves as a connection point between the foot and the leg. The foot is a complex system of bones, joints, ligaments, and muscles that is divided into three sections: the rearfoot, midfoot, and forefoot. There are two bones in the foot – the tibia and fibula – which articulate with the ankle bone (Talus) at the tibiotalar joint, allowing the foot to move up and down. The foot and ankle together comprise a sophisticated network of 13 external and 21 internal muscles, along with bones and ligaments, which work in tandem to provide mobility, support, and balance.
Shoulder Surgery
Shoulder surgery involves the examination and repair of tissues inside or surrounding the shoulder joints. An arthroscope, a tiny camera, is inserted through a small incision to visualize the shoulder joint. This type of surgery is recommended to treat painful shoulder conditions and injuries. Treatment options for shoulder problems include physical therapy, pain medication, and injections that reduce inflammation and promote healing of injured tissues. Overuse of the shoulder joint and age-related wear and tear are the most common reasons for shoulder issues. Shoulder arthroscopy is a beneficial procedure that can alleviate painful symptoms caused by damage to important parts of the shoulder, articular cartilage, or other soft tissues surrounding the shoulder joint. Shoulder surgery can help repair shoulder dislocation, remove damaged labrum, ligaments, manage rotator cuff injuries, and remove inflamed tissues and loose cartilage.
