Common Sports Medicine Injuries

Premier Orthopaedic Associates specializes in the treatment of a wide range of sports medicine injuries. Some of the common sports injuries we treat include:

  • Cartilage Injuries
  • Muscle Sprains & Strains
  • Little League Elbow
  • Muscle or Tendon Ruptures
  • Tendonitis
  • Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)
  • Golfer’s Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis)

At Premier, we evaluate all levels of sports injuries

Sports Injuries can vary in severity. Sometimes a sprained ankle or pulled muscle can be treated with more conservative treatment. Distinguishing a pulled muscle from cartilage tears or subtle fractures is important. This distinction can impact your performance on the playing field. At Premier, our board-certified and fellowship-trained sports medicine experts can help determine your best course of treatment and get you on the road to recovery.

Overuse Injuries

Overuse injuries can be somewhat harder to diagnose because their effects are more subtle and can occur over an extended period of time. Common examples of these injuries include tennis elbow, shin splints, swimmer's elbow, and tendinitis. How do you know if you are experiencing an overuse injury?

  • Can't put weight on a body part, such as the ankle or wrist.
  • Favor one side of the body over the other; begin limping.
  • Have pain when using a body part.
  • Can't sleep because of the injury.
  • Experience severe joint or muscle stiffness.
  • Have irritated skin and/or blisters.

Stem Cell

At Premier Orthopaedic Associates, we specialize in providing cutting-edge treatments to help our patients recover from orthopedic injuries and conditions. We understand the importance of offering innovative solutions that promote healing and improve quality of life.

Stem Cell Therapy

Stem cell therapy is a revolutionary approach to orthopedic care that utilizes the body’s natural healing abilities to repair damaged tissues and joints. Stem cells have the remarkable ability to transform into various types of cells, making them ideal for regenerating injured tissues. Our experienced team harnesses the power of stem cells to treat a wide range of orthopedic conditions, including osteoarthritis, tendon injuries, and cartilage damage. By promoting tissue regeneration, stem cell therapy can help patients regain function and mobility without the need for invasive surgery.

    Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

    Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is another innovative treatment option offered at Premier Orthopaedic Associates. PRP therapy involves extracting a small sample of the patient’s own blood, which is then processed to concentrate the platelets and growth factors. The resulting PRP solution is injected into the affected area, where it stimulates the body’s natural healing process. PRP therapy can be particularly effective for treating soft tissue injuries, such as tendonitis, ligament sprains, and muscle strains. By delivering a concentrated dose of healing factors directly to the site of injury, PRP therapy accelerates tissue repair and promotes faster recovery.
