Arthritis

Wear of the joints that can cause pain and stiffness in the knees, hips and shoulders. See injection and RFA options.

What Is Arthritis?

Osteoarthritis is the gradual wear of the cartilage that cushions the joints. It most often affects the knees, hips and shoulders, and can cause pain that limits walking and daily activities.

Common Symptoms

  • Joint pain with activity
  • Stiffness after rest
  • Swelling
  • Reduced range of motion

How Dr. Rema Can Help

Options may include a large joint injection, PRP done in the office, or, for knee pain, a genicular nerve block followed by genicular nerve radiofrequency ablation. For arthritis of the sacroiliac joint, Dr. Rema offers an SI joint injection and in-office SI joint fusion.
