A medical evaluation includes a clinical conversation and examination to understand your concerns, review relevant findings and decide what should happen next. Tell us how symptoms affect movement and daily life, and discuss any prior testing or care.
Options considered after evaluation
Selected joint and inflammation-related conditions may be considered for cortisone or joint injections. Hyaluronic acid injections may be considered for certain patients with knee osteoarthritis. PRP is another option to discuss with a medical clinician, along with its suitability, alternatives and goals.
Movement and supportive care
Individualized rehabilitation and exercise focus on movement, strength and everyday function. Supportive bracing may be recommended after evaluation as one part of your care. The right combination depends on your findings and individual needs.
Questions to ask
Ask which option is recommended, what expected benefits and risks should be considered, and what alternatives are available. Medical and injection services are provided by appropriately licensed clinicians. Results vary, and provider availability and services should be confirmed with the office.
Further evaluation when needed
Your plan may include care here, further testing or coordination with another provider. Your clinician will explain what the findings mean for your next step.
