The knee is a complex joint that bears weight, absorbs impact, and provides essential mobility for daily activities. Composed of bones, cartilage, ligaments, and tendons, it is vulnerable to injury, wear-and-tear, and degenerative conditions. At Grau Orthopaedics, we specialize in diagnosing and treating knee issues with advanced, patient-centered care—offering both non-surgical and surgical solutions to restore function, reduce pain, and improve your quality of life.
Common Knee Conditions
- Knee Arthritis – Degenerative joint disease causing pain, stiffness, and swelling
- Osteonecrosis of the Knee – Loss of blood supply to the bone, leading to joint damage
- Osteochondritis Dissecans – A condition where bone and cartilage loosen due to poor blood flow
- Meniscal Tears – Damage to the cartilage that cushions the knee joint, causing pain and instability
- Ligament Injuries (ACL, MCL, PCL, LCL Tears) – Sprains or tears in the knee’s stabilizing ligaments
- Patellar Tendonitis – Inflammation of the tendon connecting the kneecap to the shinbone
- Chondral Injuries of the Knee – Damage to the cartilage within the knee joint, leading to pain and swelling
- Bursitis – Inflammation of the small, fluid-filled sacs that cushion the knee joint
- Runner’s Knee (Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome) – Pain around the kneecap due to overuse or improper tracking
Non-Surgical Knee Treatments
Whenever possible, we prioritize conservative treatments to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and improve function:
- Physical Therapy – Strengthening and mobility exercises to restore knee function
- Injections (Cortisone, PRP, Hyaluronic Acid) – Targeted relief for pain and inflammation
- Regenerative Medicine – Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and other biologic therapies to promote healing
- Medications – Anti-inflammatory and pain management options
- Bracing & Support – Knee braces to stabilize the joint and reduce strain
- Activity Modification – Guidance on movement and lifestyle changes to protect the knee
Minimally Invasive & Surgical Knee Procedures
When surgery is necessary, we offer the latest techniques to improve recovery and long-term results:
- Minimally Invasive Knee Joint Replacement – Advanced techniques to reduce tissue damage and speed up recovery
- Partial Knee Replacement – A less invasive option for patients with localized knee damage
- Total Knee Replacement – Replacing the entire knee joint with a prosthetic for long-term relief
