🦵 Common Causes of Knee Pain — And When to See a Specialist
Knee pain can happen to anyone — from athletes and weekend warriors to those simply going about their day. But not all knee pain is the same! Here are some of the most common causes we see at OrthoBethesda:

✅ Arthritis – wear and tear that causes stiffness and swelling
✅ Overuse injuries – from running, jumping, or repetitive motion
✅ Ligament tears (like ACL or MCL) – often from sudden pivots or sports injuries
✅ Tendonitis or bursitis – inflammation from strain or pressure
✅ Meniscus tears – cartilage damage that can cause locking or clicking

If knee pain is holding you back from your favorite activities, it’s time to get it checked out. Our fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeons and physical therapy experts will pinpoint the cause and design a personalized plan to help you recover stronger.

🎄 Don’t Let Neck Pain Ruin Your Holiday Cheer!
The holidays are a time for joy — but all the shopping, decorating, and traveling can leave your neck feeling anything but festive. Here are some common holiday traditions that can lead to neck pain:

🎄 Shopping & Gift Wrapping – Hours of carrying bags or hunching over can strain neck and shoulder muscles.
🎄 Traveling – Long drives and cramped flights often mean poor posture and stiffness.
🎄 Decorating – Reaching overhead or twisting awkwardly can cause tension and soreness.
🎄 Stress – Holiday stress naturally tightens the muscles around your neck and upper back.

Stay merry and mobile with a few simple tips:

✅ Maintain good posture — shoulders back, chin tucked.
✅ Take frequent breaks to stretch and move.
✅ Use supportive pillows when traveling or resting.
✅ Manage holiday stress with deep breathing or short walks.

If neck pain lingers or keeps you from enjoying the season, OrthoBethesda’s spine, back and neck specialists can help you find lasting relief — so you can get back to what matters most this holiday season. Call (301) 530-1010 today.

👟 What Role Does Footwear Play in Ankle Health?
The right shoes don’t just look good — they help keep your ankles strong and supported with every step.

Wearing poorly fitted or unsupportive shoes can lead to ankle instability, sprains, or even chronic pain. Choosing the right footwear helps protect your joints, improve balance, and prevent injury.

Tips from our Foot & Ankle Team:

✅ Choose shoes with proper arch and heel support
✅ Replace worn-out soles regularly
✅ Pick activity-specific shoes — running, walking, training, etc.
✅ Make sure your shoes fit snugly (not tightly) around your heel

At OrthoBethesda, Dr. Gazdag, our orthopedic foot and ankle surgeon, and Dr. Gruner, our non-surgical foot and ankle specialist, work together to help patients move comfortably and confidently — from diagnosis to recovery.

👣 Healthy movement starts from the ground up.
