EXPLANATION OF CONDITIONS WE TREAT
Tendinitis is inflammation of the thick fibrous cords that attach muscle to bone. These cords are called tendons. The condition causes pain and tenderness just outside a joint. Tendinitis can occur in any tendon but it's most common around shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees and heels. Tendinitis can be caused by a sudden injury but most people develop tendinitis because their jobs or hobbies involve motions that they repeat, over and over.

PTSD can cause a person to feel stressed and afraid after the danger is over. It affects your life and the people around you. PTSD starts at different times for different people.

Arthritis, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are among the most common causes of hip pain, especially in older adults.
