Baker’s cyst? 🤔
No… it’s not something a baker puts in your knee 🧑‍🍳😂

A Baker’s cyst is actually a fluid filled swelling that forms behind the knee, often caused by inflammation or joint conditions like arthritis or a meniscus tear.

If you’re feeling tightness, swelling, or discomfort behind your knee… don’t ignore it.

Let’s get you checked and back to moving pain free 🙌

“Why do I get laser therapy on my wrist?” 🥊

Dr. Thakur explains 👇

Repetitive impact like hitting the heavy bag can lead to wrist pain and inflammation. Instead of jumping straight to invasive options, he uses laser therapy to support healing and stay active 💪🏼

✔️ Non-invasive
✔️ No downtime
✔️ Helps reduce inflammation
✔️ Supports recovery

You don’t always need surgery to feel better sometimes the right treatment is the least invasive one.

Curious if laser therapy is right for you? Let’s talk.

Disclaimer: This is just for fun. Dr. Alvarez would never do this, the MAs don’t actually get upset with him, and the pens will (hopefully) find their way back one day 😂
