Hi, I'm John Scheer. I'm a nurse practitioner at Williams Integracare
Clinic.
Are you having knee pain? You may be suffering from Degenerative Joint
Disease and Osteoarthritis.
It's a common condition, especially among elderly patients.
Typically, we'll find that patients experience bone on bone pain
with walking or going up stairs. These conditions can be quite debilitating and
life altering,
and may prevent you from going about your normal activities that you enjoy.
We have options to help you with your pain. We feel that Viscosupplementation,
called either Euflexxa or Supartz, provides lubrication.
It is a series of three or five injections, and can help dramatically with the pain.
We've found it is beneficial to alleviate your pain, and could prevent you from having
to consider surgery.
If you feel that you are experiencing any of these symptoms of
knee pain,
please contact us to make an appointment.
