Treating osteoporosis and arthritis.Millions of people in the United States suffer from arthritis and osteoporosis. As a growing medical issue, the physicians at Ohio Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine are specially trained to treat a broad range of musculoskeletal conditions. Some of the most commonly treated problems include musculoskeletal pain, arthritis, osteoporosis and autoimmune diseases, including Rheumatoid Arthritis and Lupus. Various treatment options do exist for patients who are diagnosed with arthritis, osteoporosis or a musculoskeletal condition. Depending on the patient’s situation, we may recommend physical therapy or joint and muscle exercises to improve strength and flexibility, weight management to relieve stress on weight-bearing joints, anti-inflammatory drugs for degenerative joint disorders, heat/cold therapies, or partial or total joint replacement. |
