When Finger Pain Isn’t Just a Sprain: Signs of Trigger Finger

Finger pain is often assumed to be a simple sprain, especially when it happens during daily tasks or long hours of typing. But when the finger catches, locks or feels stiff when bending, it may point to something different, such as trigger finger.

This condition happens when the tendon has trouble gliding smoothly, leading to discomfort or a clicking sensation. It can affect anyone who uses their hands repeatedly, from office workers to people who do manual tasks.

Recognising these signs early helps you understand why the discomfort keeps coming back and whether further assessment may be helpful.

Recurrent Ankle Sprains? Here's What Might Be Going On

If ankle sprains keep happening, it may be more than just an unlucky twist. After the first injury, the ligaments can take time to regain strength. During this period, the ankle may feel less stable, increasing the risk of another sprain, especially during sports or quick movements.

Some people also develop persistent swelling or a feeling that the ankle "gives way." Understanding these patterns early can help manage the issue and reduce the risk of repeated injuries over time.

Foot Specialist Dr Tan Ken Jin at Foot & Ankle Doctor sees a variety of ankle-related concerns and guides individuals who experience ongoing instability or repeated sprains.

Common Myths About Bunion Surgery

Bunion surgery is often misunderstood. Some believe it always requires long downtime, while others think it’s only needed for severe pain. In reality, the approach depends on the individual’s symptoms, lifestyle and how the bunion affects daily movement.

Footwear choices can also play a role. Heels and narrow shoes may increase discomfort, while supportive shoes often make walking easier. Understanding the facts helps people make informed decisions instead of relying on common assumptions.

Foot Specialist Dr Tan Ken Jin at Foot & Ankle Doctor manages bunion-related concerns and guides individuals based on their condition and needs.

Common Causes of Fractures in Adults

Fractures can happen for different reasons, not just high-impact accidents. Slips, falls, sports activities, and weaker bone strength with age are among the more common factors. Even a simple misstep can lead to an injury if the force on the bone is greater than what it can handle.

Understanding how these injuries occur helps adults stay more aware of risks in daily life, especially when dealing with uneven surfaces, hurried movements or reduced balance. When a fracture occurs, proper care is important to ensure it heals in the correct position.

Fracture and Trauma Specialist Dr David Paul Bell at OrthoSports manages a range of fracture-related concerns and guides individuals through recovery.

Managing Frozen Shoulder with Gentle Movement and Patience

Frozen shoulder can make simple movements feel stiff and uncomfortable. Recovery often takes time, and many people find that slow, steady exercises help keep the joint from getting tighter.

Gentle movement, guided stretches, and patience with the process can make day-to-day tasks a little easier. If the stiffness persists or starts to significantly affect your routine, getting it checked can help you understand where you’re at and what steps may support recovery.

Shoulder Specialist Dr KC Ang at OrthoSports manages shoulder-related concerns and provides guidance for individuals experiencing ongoing stiffness or limited movement.

Can Cartilage Regrow on Its Own? What Research Shows

Cartilage plays a vital role in smooth joint movement, but it doesn’t repair itself easily when damaged. Current research suggests that while small areas may show some natural healing, larger injuries often struggle to recover fully on their own.

That’s why people sometimes notice ongoing stiffness or pain after a sports-related twist or impact, especially around the knee. Understanding what the body can and cannot repair helps set realistic expectations and guides decisions on managing symptoms.

At OrthoSports, cartilage specialist Dr KC Ang cares for individuals dealing with cartilage and joint concerns, offering clarity on what the next steps may look like.

Why ACL Injuries Are More Common in Certain Sports

Sports that involve sudden stops, quick pivots and frequent jumping place extra stress on the knee. Football, basketball, and similar activities often put the ACL under greater stress, which explains why injuries in these sports are more common.

Knowing how these movements affect the knee helps athletes stay aware of early signs, such as pain, swelling, or instability, after a twist or collision. When these symptoms persist, an assessment can offer clarity on the next steps.

At OrthoSports, knee surgeons Dr KC Ang and Dr David Paul Bell manage a wide range of knee conditions to help individuals stay active safely.

From Sprain to Stability: Navigating Recovery

A sprain can be frustrating, especially if you enjoy staying active. Understanding what happens during recovery helps you pace yourself and avoid doing too much too soon.

Giving the joint time to rest, slowly returning to movement and paying attention to any recurring discomfort are simple steps that support a steadier recovery. If the pain doesn’t settle or keeps coming back, getting it checked can offer clarity and guide your next steps.

This reflects OrthoSports’ commitment to helping people move with confidence and look after their long-term joint health.

Knee Pain After a Workout? It Might Be More Than Just Soreness

It’s common to feel some muscle soreness after a workout — but persistent or sharp knee pain can be a sign of something more than just overuse. Repetitive stress, improper form, or pre-existing joint issues can strain the knee and cause discomfort that doesn’t resolve with rest.

If pain lingers or affects daily movement, it’s important to have it checked early. Identifying the cause helps prevent further injury and supports proper recovery.

At OrthoSports, our team provides assessment and care for individuals experiencing knee pain after sports or exercise, helping them return to activity safely and confidently.

From Injury to Function: Steps in Ankle Rehabilitation

Ankle injuries can happen suddenly — during a run, a game, or even a simple misstep on uneven ground. What happens next is just as important as the injury itself.

Rehabilitation plays a key role in helping the ankle recover strength, balance, and flexibility. With proper guidance and gradual progression, most people can safely return to their activities without long-term discomfort.

Dr Tan Ken Jin at OrthoSports provides assessment and care for individuals recovering from ankle injuries, focusing on restoring movement and function safely.

Living with a Bunion? Here’s What Early Intervention Can Do

A bunion often starts as a small bump near the base of the big toe, but it can gradually cause pain or discomfort when walking. Many people ignore it in the early stages, thinking it will go away — but early intervention can make a real difference.

Simple steps like wearing proper footwear, using toe spacers, or making small activity adjustments can help slow its progression and reduce discomfort. In some cases, further evaluation may be needed to decide if other treatments are suitable.

Dr Tan Ken Jin at OrthoSports helps patients understand their condition and guides them through options that support comfortable movement and long-term foot health.
