For many people, knee pain feels like a one-way street to surgery. But that’s not always the case. At OrthoCare 360, we specialize in helping patients heal without going under the knife. If you’re struggling with knee pain, here are five non-surgical options that are proven to bring relief.
1. Physical Therapy
Targeted exercises help strengthen the muscles that support the knee joint, improve range of motion, and reduce inflammation. A custom rehab plan can significantly reduce chronic or post-injury knee pain.
2. Injections (Hyaluronic Acid or Cortisone)
Hyaluronic acid injections add cushioning and lubrication inside the joint, while cortisone injections reduce inflammation. Both are quick, in-office procedures that provide pain relief without surgery.
3. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
Using your own blood, PRP therapy promotes healing in damaged knee tissues. It’s especially helpful for patients with mild to moderate arthritis or soft tissue injuries.
4. Bracing and Support Devices
Unloader braces can relieve pressure on affected parts of the knee, making walking and daily activities easier. Combined with rehab, they often delay or prevent the need for surgery.
5. Lifestyle Modification & Weight Management
Even modest weight loss can reduce pressure on the knee joint. Our team supports you with safe movement strategies and personalized activity modifications to help protect your knees long term.
