Treatment for Knee Pain and Injuries

Knee pain is one of the most restrictive and debilitating pains anyone can get. A knee injury can mean you’re out of commission at work or from your favorite sports. Common knee symptoms/causes include inflammation, instability or inability to straighten your knee. If you’ve experienced any of these symptoms, reach out to the physicians at San Antonio Orthopaedic Specialists for knee pain treatment. Every person is different – and so is every injury. We make sure to tailor treatment plans to each and every patient so they receive the care that is right for them.

If you are in need of knee surgery but worried about long recovery periods, you can put your fears to rest. Our physicians have spent years perfecting tissue sparing treatments, meaning less invasive surgeries and a shorter recovery time. Knee surgeries at our facility require 1-2 days fewer observation time on average and recovery time of about a week. If you’re suffering from knee pain, set up an appointment. We’ll get you back in the game in no time.
