Sports Medicine For Knee Injuries

The knee is the largest and strongest joint in the body, yet it is still is the most common place of injury among athletes, accounting for 55% of all sports related injuries. As a large, complex joint, our knees require a lot of support from surrounding muscles, tendons, and ligaments. All of these working parts are subject to injury.

Sports Medicine For Shoulder Injuries

No other joint in the body allows for greater range of motion than the shoulder. As a ball and socket joint, the shoulder relies on healthy cartilage to maintain a smooth, frictionless buffer zone between bones. Unfortunately, both acute and overuse injuries can damage that cartilage, which causes pain and hinders athletic ability.

Sports Medicine For Foot And Ankle Injuries

Foot and ankle problems are all too common in sports. Structurally speaking, their joints and bones are smaller and more delicate compared to other parts of the body. That fragility combined with the fact that the foot/ankle is a focal point for joints, bones, and tissues, makes this area is an easy target for both acute and overuse injuries in sports.

Sports Medicine For Elbow Injuries

Elbow injuries can be a relenting source of discomfort that impairs your athleticism as well as your everyday activity if left untreated. Dr. Palumbo and his highly skilled staff have the ability to treat your elbow pain, whether you are coping with an injury sustained through immediate impact, or joint overuse.

Sports Medicine For Hip Injuries

The hip is a ball and socket joint connecting the thigh to the pelvis. Typically speaking, hips are a strong structure that support our lower extremity movement. However, sports and genetics often play a factor in disrupting the hip’s ability to perform.
