🖐️ Does your finger “snap” or get stuck?
That catching/locking sensation can be trigger finger, often caused by tendon irritation. Addressing it early can make a big difference.

👉 Quick tip: practice gentle range-of-motion exercises and take a break from repetitive gripping for a few days.

Still sticking or painful? Our hand & wrist specialists can help—options may include therapy, bracing, injections, and if needed, trigger finger release (non-surgical or surgical).

Let’s get you back to better with the hand experts at OrthoBethesda.

If your knee is buckling, swelling, or you heard a “pop,” call the knee specialists at OrthoBethesda today at 301-530-1010.

Healthy Hips = Happy Movement!
Your hips do more than help you walk — they power every step, stretch, and stride you take. But when hip pain strikes, even simple activities can become a challenge. Common causes include:

✅ Arthritis or cartilage wear
✅ Overuse or sports injuries
✅ Hip labral tears or impingement
✅ Previous injury or imbalance

At OrthoBethesda, our hip specialists provide expert diagnosis and personalized treatment — from advanced imaging and therapy to minimally invasive surgery — helping you move freely and confidently again.

Don’t sit out on life because of hip pain — take the first step toward relief today! Call the hip specialists at OrthoBethesda at (301) 530-1010 to schedule your consultation.

Stop making your shoulder do the job it wasn’t built for ✅

OrthoBethesda orthopedic surgeon Dr. Craig A. Miller calls it the Shoulder Safe Box - hands close, in front, controlled.

Far reaches + overhead storage = your shoulder paying the price.

Your shoulder is happiest in that comfortable zone in front of you—not repeatedly reaching high, far, or overhead. Small change. Big difference.

Shoulder pain not improving? Call OrthoBethesda today at 301-530-1010

🦵 Think You May Have Torn Your ACL? Here’s What to Look For 👇
Your ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) plays a major role in keeping your knee stable — especially during sports, quick pivots, or sudden stops. When it’s injured, your knee will let you know.

Common Signs of an ACL Tear:

🚨 A sudden “pop” at the moment of injury
🚨 Immediate pain or swelling in the knee
🚨 Feeling like your knee might “give out”
🚨 Trouble walking or straightening the leg
🚨 Loss of stability or confidence in movement

If these symptoms sound familiar, it’s important to get evaluated right away. At OrthoBethesda, our fellowship-trained sports medicine specialists provide advanced diagnosis and personalized treatment for ACL injuries — from conservative care to minimally invasive reconstruction.

💪 Whether you’re an athlete or simply want to move without pain, we’ll help you get back to doing what you love — safely and confidently.

❄️ Watch Your Step This Winter — Stay Upright and Injury-Free! 🩴
Snow and ice may look pretty… until you’re the one doing the penguin shuffle across your driveway. 🐧

Every winter, we see an uptick in ankle sprains, wrist fractures, and knee injuries from simple slips and falls — but most can be prevented with a little extra care.

Here’s how to keep your footing firm this season:

✅ Wear shoes or boots with good traction — save the slick soles for spring.
✅ Salt and sand your steps early (before the ice wins the battle).
✅ Take small, steady steps — slow and steady beats “ouch, my hip!”
✅ If you take a tumble and pain lasts more than a day, don’t wait it out — our orthopedic team is here to help.

At OrthoBethesda, we’re experts in helping you bounce back from winter injuries and keep moving safely all season long. Because nothing should stop you from enjoying a snow day — except maybe hot cocoa. ☕❄️

If you should take a tumble, call the orthopedic specialists today at (301) 530-1010.

✨ Honoring the Legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. ✨

At OrthoBethesda we reflect on his enduring message of service, justice, and love for others. His dream reminds us that every act of kindness and care moves us closer to a stronger, more compassionate world.

May we all walk in his footsteps — lifting others, building bridges, and working together toward a future rooted in dignity, respect, and hope.

Before & After Joint Replacement: The OrthoBethesda Difference

Joint replacement isn’t just about easing pain — it’s about getting your life back. Moving more comfortably. Walking farther. Sleeping better. Returning to the activities you’ve been missing.

When you and your surgeon decide it’s time, the process starts before surgery. With the right prep, guidance, and expectations, you can set yourself up for a smoother procedure and a stronger recovery.

After surgery, it’s all about progress — rebuilding strength, restoring mobility, and gaining confidence step by step. 💪

At OrthoBethesda, our team supports you through the entire journey — from evaluation and planning to rehab and long-term results — so you feel informed, cared for, and ready for what’s next.

Because your “after” should feel like freedom.

📅 Ready for your “after”? Call the specialists at OrthoBethesda today at (301) 530-1010 to schedule your joint replacement consultation.

💡 Why Shoulder Pain Doesn’t Always Start in the Shoulder
Ever feel pain in your shoulder that just doesn’t make sense? It might surprise you to know that not all shoulder pain actually starts in the shoulder! Tightness in your neck, upper back, or even poor posture can cause pain that radiates into your shoulder — a phenomenon called referred pain.

That’s why pinpointing the true source of discomfort is so important before beginning treatment.

At OrthoBethesda, our fellowship-trained orthopedic specialists and physical medicine physicians use advanced diagnostics like imaging and nerve studies to identify what’s really causing your pain. Once we know the source, we can build a personalized plan that helps you:

✅ Relieve pain safely
✅ Restore proper movement
✅ Prevent it from coming back

Real recovery starts with the right diagnosis.
