Knee Pain

KNEE REPLACEMENT
A knee replacement operation is carried out when the knee is badly damaged by arthritis causing severe pain and impaired motion. Most artificial knees are metal or plastic implants that cover the worn cartilage. After this operation, physiotherapy is essential for getting the best result from the new joint.

Using a range of exercises, physiotherapists will help you to regain muscle strength and movement so that you can walk normally as soon as possible. They will also teach you how to use crutches, and will ensure that you can carry out basic movements such as standing up, sitting down and going up and down stairs. After discharge from hospital, you will continue to see the physiotherapist until you have optimum function from the new joint.  This process can take several weeks, and will involve a carefully graded, increasing set of exercises designed to improve the range of movement, strength and function. The physio will also help you progress to either one crutch or walking stick at the appropriate time.

Foot Problems

Do you have foot problems and pain? Call David Fraser to see how we can help cure your pain.

Take a look at our partner page; we have a range of great services provided by our multi-disciplinary team at Bartholomew Way Clinic: heelpainspecialist.co.uk

Our Physiotherapist, David Fraser, has particular expertise in diagnosis and management of foot and ankle problems, and is supported by a highly experienced podiatry team.

Ankle ligament strains heal rapidly with correct physiotherapy treatment, and a good progression of remedial exercise helps to avoid recurrent issues.

Following detailed asssessment, we will use hands-on soft tissue and joint mobilisation techniques, tailored exercises and electrotherapies to promote rapid recovery. On-site Ultrasound Scanning may be used to aid diagnosis, and to monitor your progress. David may also use support strapping to protect or rest tissues, or advise on other suitable ‘off the shelf’ splints or supports. We carry a small stock of these, and have excellent links to a local supplier.
