If your hip has been giving you problems such as stiffness or pain, your doctor may recommend hip arthroscopy to diagnose and treat abnormalities within the joint. “Why hip arthroscopy? And how long before I can get back to my sport and my active lifestyle?” are questions that might spring to mind.
"March Madness" is arguably one of the most anticipated athletic events of the year. Amid all the excitement and "madness" that will be part of this sporting extravaganza, injuries are bound to occur and can play a decisive factor in determining which team will win the coveted championship. In our desire to emulate our heroes on the basketball court, let's ensure we do not suffer similar injures. Here is a look at common basketball injuries and what we can do to prevent them:
When it comes to foods that strengthen your bones, the two most important nutrients are calcium and vitamin D. By combining with other minerals, calcium forms hard crystals that give structure and strength to your bones. In addition, a small amount of calcium is also used for healthy functioning of the muscles, nerves, heart and blood. About 99% of the body's calcium is stored in the bones.
Movement is one of the fundamental signs of life, and your cardiovascular health depends on movement. But with advancing age, there is some inevitable wear and tear of the cartilage that protects your joints, resulting in joint pain and stiffness. Some people wrongly assume they can protect their joints by minimizing their activity. This is actually counterproductive. When it comes to your joints - you have to use them or you lose them!
Exercise plays a vital role in strengthening your joints. The more you move your joints, the less stiff they will become. Bones and joints become strong when they are forced to bear weight greater than they are used to. This can be done by performing weight bearing exercises and high impact exercises such as weight lifting, bodyweight exercises, jogging, plyometrics, and aerobics.
If you have been suffering from chronic hip pain and disability due to degenerative joint disease of the hip or an injury, a hip replacement can work wonders in terms of improved mobility, pain relief, and overall quality of life. Prior to the operation, however, your doctor may recommend that you lose some weight. What has one thing got to do with the other you might ask? Plenty.
A hip injury can have devastating effects on your mobility, independence, and confidence. Conversely, when your hips are functioning at optimal levels, all your movements are enhanced. Stretching plays a very important role in preventing hip injuries.
Downhill skiing is one of the most exhilarating experiences you can have in the winter season. However, this fun-filled activity is associated with the risk of injuries that may include torn ligaments, broken bones, and serious head injuries.
If you are looking for a way to return to physical activities that you enjoy but have had to give up on due to degenerative joint disease of the knees and hips, this state-of-the-art technology may be just the right option for you.
We all know the perfect, pointy pair of 4-inch heels can make any outfit, but our high-heeled beauties can cause a lot of pain and damage to our bodies. Studies have shown that these towering shoes can take a toll on women’s spine, hips, knees, ankles and feet, and even alter their posture and gait.
