🩺 A Meaningful Milestone: Joined the Society of Military

I’m honored to share that I’ve recently joined the Society of Military Surgeons—a milestone that holds deep personal significance for me.

Service has always been an important part of my family’s story. My father served in the military in Iran, my father-in-law served in France and the United States, and my wife’s grandfather was a proud West Point graduate from the Class of ’41 who went on to serve as a Colonel in the U.S. Army.

Joining this organization is not only a professional honor, but a continuation of a legacy rooted in service, discipline, and commitment. I’m deeply proud to be part of a community that supports those who have dedicated their lives to serving others.

🩺 Understanding Knee Dislocation

A knee dislocation is a serious injury that occurs when the bones of the knee are forced out of alignment, often causing damage to multiple ligaments, cartilage, and surrounding structures.

As shown here, this type of injury can involve the ACL, MCL, LCL, and meniscus—making stability, movement, and strength significantly compromised if not treated properly.

Early diagnosis, expert evaluation, and a personalized treatment plan are critical to restoring function and preventing long-term complications. With the right orthopedic care, patients can move forward safely toward recovery and strength.

🩺 3 Lower Back Stretches for High-Impact Athletes

High-impact sports place extra stress on the lower back, so mobility and recovery are essential to prevent injuries and maintain performance.

1. Cat-Cow Stretch – Improves spinal mobility and relieves stiffness.
2. Child’s Pose – Gently stretches the lower back and reduces tension.
3. Knee-to-Chest Stretch – Helps decompress the lumbar spine after intense workouts.

Just a few intentional minutes of stretching can keep your back flexible, strong, and ready for your next training session.

🦴 Shoulder Osteoarthritis Overview

Shoulder osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative arthritis, occurs when the cartilage that protects the shoulder joint gradually wears down. As cartilage deteriorates, movement becomes painful and shoulder function can significantly decline.

This condition most often develops with age but may also result from prior injury, repetitive stress, or certain medical and genetic factors. As cartilage breaks down, bones may begin to rub against each other, leading to stiffness, pain, and the formation of bone spurs.

Common symptoms include shoulder and arm pain, stiffness, reduced range of motion, tenderness, and a grinding or catching sensation with movement.

Treatment depends on severity. Early stages may respond well to anti-inflammatory medications, injections, and physical therapy. When conservative treatments are no longer effective, surgical options may be considered to restore comfort and function.

At Manhattan Orthopedic Care, Armin Tehrany focuses on personalized treatment plans to help patients maintain mobility and quality of life.

🦵 Knee Arthritis Treatment

Not all knee arthritis is the same. Treatment depends on whether the arthritis is osteoarthritis or an inflammatory condition such as rheumatoid arthritis.

For knee osteoarthritis, Dr. Armin Tehrany follows a step-by-step approach. Treatment starts conservatively with physical therapy, focusing on stretching, strengthening, and balance to improve motion and reduce pain.

If physical therapy isn’t enough, medications like anti-inflammatories or Tylenol may help. Injections can also provide temporary relief. Cortisone injections may last three to six months but should not be repeated too frequently. Gel injections, such as hyaluronic acid, can help reduce pain by improving the joint environment.

Surgery is considered only if these options fail.

At Manhattan Orthopedic Care, care is always tailored to the patient and the severity of symptoms.

🦴 Glenoid Labrum Tear Overview

A glenoid labrum tear occurs when the cartilage that lines the shoulder socket is damaged. The labrum helps cushion the head of the humerus and plays a key role in shoulder stability. When torn, the shoulder can feel painful, weak, or unstable.

Labrum tears can result from a fall, direct impact, or repetitive overhead movements common in sports such as baseball, tennis, or weightlifting. Symptoms may include pain with overhead activity, clicking or grinding sensations, limited motion, decreased strength, or even shoulder dislocation.

Evaluation typically includes a physical exam and imaging studies to determine the location and severity of the tear. Treatment depends on symptoms and activity level. Some patients improve with rest, medication, and physical therapy, while others may require surgical repair—often performed arthroscopically.

At Manhattan Orthopedic Care, Armin Tehrany focuses on accurate diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment to restore shoulder stability and long-term function.

🦵 Dislocated Knee vs. Dislocated Kneecap

When someone is told they have a “dislocated knee,” it can mean very different things—and understanding the distinction is important.

As Dr. Armin Tehrany explains, when patients come into the office with this concern, more often than not the knee itself is not dislocated. In most cases, it’s actually the kneecap (patella) that has shifted out of place—which is much more common.

Anatomically, the knee joint is made up of the femur, the tibia, and the kneecap. In younger athletes especially, the kneecap can dislocate temporarily and then move back into position on its own. This is sometimes misinterpreted as a “dislocated knee.”

A true knee dislocation, where the tibia shifts off the femur, is far more serious. This type of injury is rare but dangerous and considered an acute, emergent condition that requires immediate medical attention.

When the kneecap dislocates, the surrounding soft tissues are often injured. This can be related to alignment issues, though trauma can also play a role. Treatment may include physical therapy, and in some cases, surgery—depending on the severity and underlying cause.

At Manhattan Orthopedic Care, education and accurate diagnosis are key to ensuring patients receive the right care at the right time.

💪 Patient Review
Arlene Morgan
Knee Meniscectomy

After years of knee pain, Arlene turned to Armin Tehrany for care. Over the course of more than ten years, she underwent two knee meniscectomies—one on each knee—with excellent results.

Each procedure was performed arthroscopically, allowing for precise diagnosis and treatment of her meniscus tears. Both recoveries were smooth, and Arlene was able to return to full strength and function.

💬 “I’ve been a patient of Dr. Tehrany for over ten years. He has performed surgeries on both of my knees, and I am so much better.”

We’re grateful for Arlene’s trust and kind words.
