At CMC Joint Replacement Center, we understand how challenging life becomes when you live with chronic joint pain caused by arthritis, injuries or other conditions. When your ability to move and get around the way you used to be able to, becomes increasingly difficult and painful, you can turn to our Joint Replacement Center.

A Better Life is a Click Away.

What is Joint Pain?

Your knees, shoulders, elbows, and ankles are all joints that are susceptible to injury, damage, and pain. Pain from these joints usually stems from the damage of ligaments, tendons, cartilage bursae, and/or conjoining bones. Although joint pain is not usually a critical condition, it can severely limit a sufferer from mobility and performing daily tasks and activities. Joints allow our limbs and extremities to move freely, so it can be frustrating when those movements are restrained by pain.  

Common Joint Pain Symptoms

While joint pain itself is a common symptom, there are numerous other effects that can come along with it.  We can help our patients with symptoms like:

  • Redness
  • Swelling
  • Tenderness
  • Warmth
  • Stiffness
  • Weakness
  • Limping
  • Joint locking
  • Limited range of motion of the joint

Joint Pain Causes

There are many reasons that joint pain develops, including:

  • Arthritis, including Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Bursitis
  • Tendinitis
  • Inflammation
  • Gout
  • Injury

Joint Pain Risks

Your daily routine may be putting you at risk for severe or chronic joint pain, These factors include:

  • Obesity
  • Smoking
  • Higher Age
  • Injuries due to work or athletic activity
  • Stress and dissatisfaction with life
  • Hard physical labor, especially involving repetitive action

Get back to an active lifestyle at our Joint Replacement Center

Patients who have total hip or total knee replacements typically recover quickly. You can expect to walk the day of your surgery. Most patients can safely go home the same day or the day after surgery.  Generally, patients are able to return to driving in 2 to 4 weeks, go back to work in 6 to 8 weeks, and golf in 6 to 12 weeks. Your total joint team is dedicated to helping you return home and get back to the activities you enjoy.
