Chiropractic Treatment For Knee Injuries
Between 100,000 to 200,000 people tear their anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) each year through the United States. ACL tears are the most common type of knee injury our College Park Chiropractors address and require specific treatment that is considerate of the complexities associated with this part of the body.
Although your knee is one of the more dense areas of your body, the tendons, and ligaments that surround your knees are fragile and prone to injury based on the amount of impact or stress they absorb daily. If you recently injured your knee in a car or slip and fall accident, or you suffer from a chronic condition, contact our College Park Chiropractors to schedule a free consultation.
We welcome your questions and would love to discuss which treatment options are appropriate for your unique condition. Call us today at (404) 592-0319.
Common Knee Injuries Treated By Our College Park Chiropractors
Some of the other common knee injuries and conditions our College Park Chiropractors treat on a regular basis include:
Knee Fractures
Most knee fractures are the result of a patient falling down, getting involved in a car accident, or suffering a sports injury. Knee fractures can be extremely painful and most patients experience a combination of:
- Inflammation
- Pulsating pain
- Tenderness
- Inability to apply weight on the affected side of your body
Knee Dislocation
Patients sustain a dislocated knee when their bones move out of position because of sudden trauma or impact. Dislocations are very painful and require heat therapy to reduce inflammation. One of our College Park Chiropractors can easily realign your knee bones, although most patients still require ongoing treatment for complete recovery.
College Park Chiropractic Treatment For Knee Injuries and Chronic Pain
To provide appropriate treatment for your knee injury, you will need to follow through with a complete examination to determine the exact size and extent of your condition. By using state of the art imaging devices like MRI scans or X-ray machines, our Chiropractors can determine which combination of techniques and exercises will meet the unique needs of your particular injury. Most patients who require treatment for an injured knee receive manual adjustments, therapeutic ultrasound, and light exercises to recover.
