We’re thrilled to announce an advancement in orthopedic care right here in Fort Wayne. Fort Wayne Orthopedics’ Dr. Nelson has become the first orthopedic surgeon in the U.S. to perform the groundbreaking BioPoly procedure — a synthetic cartilage implant proven successful in Europe for 13+ years and now part of an FDA clinical trial.

This is a historic step forward for knee care! To learn more about BioPoly visit: https://biopolyortho.com/for-healthcare-professionals/products/knee/.

What happens when we take an MRI of both shoulders in someone with one-sided shoulder pain? 🤔

A study looked at this. See the image below to see what it found 👀

Does that mean that structure is not important?

No, but it shows that pain is not just about structure!

Want to learn more about the shoulder?

💪 Evaluation and treatment of shoulder pain

In his new class, Jared Powell will teach you about:

MRI’s certainly have their place but often are over utilized and illustrate “normal” degenerative processes which are misconstrued as pathological.

3 MYTHS!

❌ Flat earth
❌ Bigfoot
❌ Hips going out of place

The last one is something many of us encounter in the clinic. Dr Michael Mash has written a great blog about this 👇

"If I had a dime for every time one of my patients told me “I feel like my hip is out of place,” I’d be a rich man. While I can understand why this is such a common notion, I’m here to tell you that your hips simply do NOT go out of place (for the most part). Furthermore, telling people this may actually do more harm than good!

During the COVID-19 pandemic, risks of violence increase due to:
❗️ More time at home with abusers
❗️ Rising stress
❗️ Isolation from social support networks
❗️ Limited access to critical services

We must END violence!
