Although the bones in the fingers are small, a finger fracture is not a minor injury. Fingers are capable of very fine, coordinated motions and disruption of this motion can make it difficult to do simple tasks and activities. Think about it; fingers let us touch, grasp, and interact with our environment. They allow us […]
The top of the talus (ankle bone) is dome-shaped and is completely covered with cartilage. A talar dome lesion is an injury to the cartilage and underlying bone of the talus within the ankle joint. While symptoms may take months to develop, a talar dome lesion can cause pain, swelling, and more. This is why […]
As life happens, so do injuries, especially those that occur when we least expect them. Sometimes these injuries need special care and attention. A torn meniscus in the knee, for example, whether the result of a quick pivot during a basketball game, an unexpected fall or just wear and tear over time, can have long-lasting […]

Also known as avascular necrosis (AVN), osteonecrosis of the hip can cause pain which can be debilitating in and around the hip joint.
