Removing tape with a smooth, quick motion actually causes less discomfort than pulling it off slowly because the nerves are stimulated for a shorter time. At this two-week visit, the incision looks excellent—clean, dry, and well protected with a silver antimicrobial dressing and steri-strips underneath.

Care from a fellowship-trained knee specialist makes a difference. Dr. Winegar is the only knee-specific fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon in the Treasure Valley, with additional fellowship training in orthopedic trauma. He uses the MAKO robotic system for precise knee replacement and specializes in patella relocation, knee ligament injuries, partial and total knee replacements, and complex revision surgeries.

🎯 What Is the Glenoid?
The glenoid is the shallow, cup-shaped socket of the shoulder blade that holds the ball of the upper arm bone. Its unique shape allows the shoulder to move in many directions, but it also makes the joint more vulnerable to instability, labral tears, and dislocations.

Understanding the glenoid helps patients make sense of shoulder pain, clicking, or feelings of looseness—especially after an injury.

If you’re experiencing shoulder instability, pain, or recurrent dislocations, our team at Blackrock Orthopedics is here to help. Dr. Jensen, D.O. our shoulder specialist can provide a detailed evaluation and personalized treatment plan to get you back to moving again.

⭐ Dr. Corbett Winegar’s 5 Tips for a Great-Looking Scar After Knee Replacement ⭐

If you’ve had a knee replacement (or are getting ready for one), you may be wondering how to help your scar heal in the best way possible. While everyone heals differently, these are Dr. Winegar’s top evidence-supported principles to promote a clean, smooth-appearing incision:

🛑 1. Don’t Let the Incision Get Infected
A clean, protected incision heals better. Infection is one of the main causes of widened or thickened scars.

Keep Steri-Strips On
Let them fall off naturally. They support the healing incision and help prevent stretching of the scar.

💧 2. Moisturize (Only After the Incision Is Fully Closed)
Once cleared by your surgeon, moisturizing helps reduce tightness, dryness, and irritation around the scar.

☀️ 3. Use Sunscreen for the First Year
New scar tissue can permanently darken in the sun. SPF 30+ helps protect and even out the long-term appearance.

🤲 4. Gentle Scar Massage
After your surgeon approves, massage can help break up deeper scar tissue and prevent the layers from sticking together—reducing rippling or bunching of the scar.

🎗️ 5. Bonus: Silicone Tape or Gel
Silicone products have strong clinical support for flattening and softening scars over time.

🦴 What Are Bone Spurs?
Bone spurs—also called osteophytes—are small, extra pieces of bone that form where a joint has irritation, inflammation, or arthritis. They don’t always cause pain, but they can contribute to stiffness, catching, or discomfort if they press on nearby tissues.

If you’re experiencing shoulder pain, limited motion, or discomfort with activity, the team at Blackrock Orthopedics is here to help. Our shoulder specialist, Ray Jensen, D.O. can provide a thorough evaluation and personalized treatment options to get you moving again.

🤔 What is an MCL tear — and how do you heal it?

Your MCL (medial collateral ligament) is one of the key stabilizers on the inside of your knee. When it’s strained or partially torn — often from twisting, sports, or a sudden sideways hit — it can cause pain, swelling, and that feeling like your knee just wants to give out.

👨‍⚕️ Dr. Corbett Winegar, MD, FAAOS, the only knee-specific fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon in the Treasure Valley, breaks it down:
➡️ He compares the knee joint to a finger knuckle — showing how movement can stress the MCL.
➡️ And he explains why wearing a brace that limits knee bending helps protect the healing ligament and prevents further strain.

🦵 Whether it’s a sports injury or a slip on the ice, understanding your MCL tear is the first step to healing right — not just fast.
