My father has arthritis and finds it sometimes painful to walk due to his knees. They are usually quite swollen and stiff.

But, because he has haemophilia, he cannot take the usual anti-inflammatory medicine that would normally be prescribed by Doctors.

What remedies can you suggest to ease the swelling and soften the pain?

Vector Vision Knee

Thursday, July 15th, 2010


VectorVision CT-free knee is a new navigation logic that enables surgeons to verify each step of the knee substitution procedure in real time and to use the resulting new data to optimize their plotting of the surgery. This way, possible deviations between the plotting and the actual treatment results of the total knee substitution (TKR) can be corrected on the spot and misplacements of the prosthesis avoided.

How to promote and allow full recovery of a knee injury to avoid athritis and surgery?

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

Had a knee injury not to long ago. It recovered, to an extent, but still bugs me from time to time. How can I get my knee back to normal (or at least as best I can) without medications of any kind. I don’t want to be reminded of this when I’m much older and don’t ever want surgery. Has anyone had any luck with this and what should I do?

Chronic Knee Pain Relief – Could a Knee Brace Be the Answer?

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

How would you describe your knee pain problems?

Recurring knee pain can really infringe upon your lifestyle. Unadorned daily activities become a challenge as you attempt to avoid any type of movement that may aggravate the pain. At this point, recurring knee pain relief becomes a priority, and you just want to get back to living life the way you used to. The excellent news is, an affordable and low profile brace can help give you the recurring knee pain relief you seek. – No Joke.

The knee joint is one of the largest joints in the human body, and is used in just about ever activity we perform in our lower body. As time goes by, untreated wear and tear can cause honest knee pain. Recurring knee discomfort can stem from any digit of conditions. Unlike traumatic injuries to the joint (which can cause sharp but temporary knee pain), recurring conditions (such as arthritis, and bursitis) can cause pain that is steady and nearly constant.

Consequently, conventional treatments used for traumatic pain (such as ice therapy and rest) may not give you recurring pain relief in the long run. They can be helpful, of way, but many times they just do not “cut it”. It is always wise to have your recurring knee pain evaluated by a physician to help determine the cause. But, whatever the cause, in many cases, a well designed support may offer some degree of recurring knee pain relief. These braces do not have to be huge, hideous, or heavy to be effective. Several uncommon, yet effective knee brace styles exist these days…

Most recurring pain is related in some way to general wear and tear and overuse of the structures within the knee joint. For instance, when the cartilage disc under the knee cap breaks down and wears thin, the friction between the knee cap and the bone underneath can cause recurring knee pain. A brace, when properly used, can help relieve the stress on the joint, thus reducing the wear and tear and friction within the joint. Further, an effective support can help keep your leg in proper alignment, helping to provide recurring knee pain relief from conditions such as Patellofemoral Syndrome (where the patella does not sit properly within the femoral groove).

A knee brace can also help support the muscles, tendons and ligaments surrounding the joint, helping to reduce inflammation caused by conditions such as bursitis, or meniscal tears. Cut-rate inflammation will help provide relief from recurring knee pain.

Braces come in several uncommon styles offering varying degrees of support, depending upon your particular needs. Do not be left behind, just because your knee pain wants to keep you still. A support for your knee can be the one business you did to help provide yourself with improved stability.

If your knees had one business they could say, they might just shout “thank you”, because you gave them the support they needed.

Dr. Lonner Explains Total vs. Partial Knee Replacement Surgery

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010


Often referred to as an arthroplasty, knee substitution surgery is a procedure that removes the arthritic surfaces of the bones nearly the knee and caps the ends of the bones with smooth, polished, durable implants. Depending on what type of knee substitution you may be having, uncommon structures in your knee may or may not have to be removed. For instance, in the case of a total knee substitution, the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments, smashed joint cartilage, and menisci (shock absorbers) are removed and substituted by the implant. The medial and lateral collateral ligaments and tendons nearly the knee are typically left intact for all knee substitution procedures, except in unusual circumstances.
