MCL (medial collateral ligament) sprains, injuries, and tears are injuries that occur on the inner side of the knee. Symptoms include pain, swelling, and instability. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery.

PCL (posterior cruciate ligament) sprains, injuries, and tears are injuries that occur on the back of the knee. Symptoms can include pain, swelling, and instability. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery.

Meniscal tears, fraying, and bucket handle tears are injuries to the cartilage in the knee that can cause pain, swelling, and difficulty moving the joint. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery.

A Baker’s cyst is a fluid-filled lump that develops behind the knee. It can be caused by inflammation or injury and can cause pain and stiffness. Treatment may include rest, compression, and sometimes surgery.

Piriformis syndrome, IVDP (intervertebral disc prolapse), listhesis, and vertebral body fractures are conditions that can cause sciatica, a type of nerve pain that radiates from the lower back down the legs. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, medication, and sometimes surgery.

Avascular necrosis of the hip or head of the femur is a condition in which the blood supply to the hip joint is disrupted, leading to bone death and eventual collapse of the joint. Treatment may include rest, medication, and sometimes surgery.

Bursitis is a condition in which the small fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that cushion joints become inflamed, causing pain and stiffness. Treatment may include rest, ice, compression, and sometimes medication or injection.

Tendonitis is a condition in which the tendons, which connect muscles to bones, become inflamed and painful. Treatment may include rest, ice, compression, and sometimes medication or injection.

Fasciitis is a condition in which the fascia, a band of tissue that runs under the skin and connects muscles, becomes inflamed and painful. It commonly affects the feet and can cause heel pain. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, and sometimes medication or injection.

Ligament injuries can occur in any joint and can range from mild sprains to severe tears. Symptoms can include pain, swelling, and instability. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery.

Achilles tendonitis is a condition in which the Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone, becomes inflamed and painful. It can be caused by overuse or injury and can make walking and other activities difficult. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, and sometimes medication or injection.
