CARTILAGE INJURIES
- Atlas Physio
Cartilage Injuries refer to a broad range of traumatic, age-related, autoimmune and disease-related conditions in which the cartilage in joints is worn down, degraded or damaged. Cartilage is an essential component of nearly all the moving joints in your body, from the small bones in your toes to the long bones in your arms and thighs, the working surfaces of the joints have a coating of cartilage to minimise shock to the bone, aid in weightbearing, improve the mechanical advantage of the limbs and make movements easier.
With so many places in the body being made up of cartilage, there are many common cartilaginous injuries that can occur.
Management of your discomfort depends on the cause of the pain, how it feels and changes over the day, what makes it better or worse, and the length of time you have been experiencing the pain. At Atlas Physio, we will provide you with education, structured management, and ongoing monitoring of your pain both in and out of the clinic. Contact us to arrange an assessment, and to take the first step on a course of corrective care today.
