In terms of bone-joint injuries, osteoarthritis-cartilage defects, ligament-tendon injuries, femoral head osteonecrosis, and osteogenesis imperfecta, stem cell therapy has proven to be effective. In this presentation Dr. David Greene Arizona discusses Orthopedic Conditions That May Be Causing Pain.

1. Orthopedic
Conditions That May
Be Causing Your
Pain
Dr. David Greene Arizona

2. Elbow Pain
The elbow is a hinge joint that connects the
upper arm and lower arm. It consists of three
bones; the humerus, radius, and ulna. Each
bone is capped with cartilage and a complex
array of ligaments and tendons from various
muscles cross over the joint. Its function is
bending and extending the arm.

3. Hip Pain
When we talk about hip pain, just like in real
estate, it comes down to location, location,
location! The term “hip” means a lot of different
things to a lot of different people. When you ask
patients to point to their hip, some point to the
side of their leg, some will point to their groin, and
others point to their low back or buttock. While all
of these are thought of as part of the hip region,
only groin pain is “true” hip pain as this is where
your hip joint is found.

4. Shoulder Pain
The shoulder is a complex, highly mobile joint
designed to provide the highest amount of motion
of any joint in the body. In its simplest form, it is a
ball and socket joint surrounded by a variety of
ligaments, tendons, and muscles that are
responsible for moving the arm.

5. Knee Pain
The knee is the largest single joint in the body. It is
a hinge joint comprised of the femur (thigh bone)
and tibia (shin bone). There is cartilage on each
bone with the meniscus in between that acts as a
shock absorber and cushion. There are four
ligaments that provide stability and a joint
capsule. Finally, there are many different muscles
and tendons that surround the knee which bends
the knee back and forth and provide dynamic
stability while you are active.

6. Biceps Tendonitis
The shoulder is a complex, highly mobile joint
designed to provide the highest amount of motion
of any joint in the body. One part that frequently
see stress is the biceps tendon.

7. Cubital Tunnel
Syndrome
The elbow is a hinge joint that connects the upper
arm and lower arm. It consists of three bones; the
humerus, radius, and ulna. Each bone is capped
with cartilage and a complex array of ligaments
and tendons from various muscles that cross over
the joint.

8. Tennis Elbow
The elbow is a hinge joint that connects the upper
arm and lower arm. It consists of three bones; the
humerus, radius, and ulna. Each bone is capped
with cartilage and a complex array of ligaments
and tendons from various muscles that cross over
the joint.
