Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Sports Medicine care with Dr. Tiara LMT:

What is the difference between a Sports Medicine Physician and an Orthopedic Surgeon?

A sports medicine physician, often a non-surgical doctor, focuses on diagnosing and treating sports injuries, frequently with non-operative care. If surgery is needed, they partner with an orthopedic surgeon, who is a surgical specialist for the musculoskeletal system.

How do custom orthotics help prevent foot and ankle problems?

Custom orthotics are custom-made shoe inserts that support and align the foot and ankle. By correcting biomechanical issues like flat feet, they reduce stress on the feet, ankles, and knees, preventing problems like plantar fasciitis and tendonitis.

What is the goal of physical therapy after an injury or surgery?

Physical therapy is a critical part of your recovery, aiming to reduce pain, restore range of motion, improve strength and stability, and retrain your body for safe movement. This is essential to prevent re-injury and ensure a successful, long-lasting return to activity.

What is carpal tunnel syndrome?

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a condition caused by pressure on the median nerve at the wrist, often resulting in numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand. Early intervention with bracing and physical therapy is key to preventing the need for surgery.

What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy?

PRP therapy is a regenerative medicine technique where a concentration of your own platelets is injected into the injured area. The goal is to use your body's natural growth factors to accelerate healing of tendons, ligaments, and joints, offering a modern, non-surgical option to prevent the progression of certain chronic injuries.

How can I prevent common sports injuries like an ACL tear?

Preventing ACL tears and other sports injuries involves a dedicated program of neuromuscular training. Proper warm-ups, strength training focusing on hamstrings and glutes, and practicing correct landing and pivoting techniques are crucial. This proactive approach protects your joints during activity and significantly reduces your risk.

Do I need an MRI for my joint pain?

An MRI isn't always necessary. A thorough physical exam and X-rays are often sufficient to diagnose joint pain. An MRI is typically reserved for cases where a diagnosis remains unclear or a soft tissue injury is suspected.

What is a rotator cuff tear?

A rotator cuff tear is damage to one or more of the four muscles and tendons that stabilize your shoulder joint, often from overuse or a sudden injury. Treatment focuses on relieving pain and restoring function to prevent long-term shoulder weakness and arthritis.
