It should not surprise you to hear that, here at North Houston Spine and Sports Medicine, we specialize in treating your sports injuries. We understand that the passion for the game is worth a little risk. But there is a risk with all those forces being shoved around. We are here for you if something does go wrong with that same passion when it comes to an injury. Our team wants to see you get back on the field and moving as soon as possible, in better shape than before.
Do not make the mistake of thinking that we only deal with spinal injuries. Of course, that is of special interest to us, but because it is of such importance to the rest of the body. All our appendages’ nerve groups connect to the central nervous system, protected by the spine.
Arms
The brachial plexus nerves link your arm and their movement and feeling through your shoulder and chest through your cervical vertebrae. It is our team’s job to understand how to treat the affected muscles, bones, ligaments, and tendons. Medication can be prescribed to alleviate the pain temporarily. But beyond surgery, we are dedicated to bringing your arm back to its full potential.
Legs
Once again, we make sure to know how to deal with injuries all over the body. If you have injured your leg in an accident, we have the equipment on-hand to diagnose what the problem is. For surgery, we have the rehabilitation programs you will need afterward. With less serious injuries, we can try the right brace or wrap or muscle excitation. If it is a ligament or ACL tear or an ankle sprain, then you may have to work with us on a day to day or weekly basis with the correct leg training and physical therapy. We will be with you through it until you are back on your feet.
Upper Body
Our specialty, the spine, is at a huge risk during sports. The vertical impacts many have and what many of us go through in contact sports put strain on the spine. Many people with chronic pain have it from an injury long ago. When playing sports, we may want to heal as soon as possible to get back on the field. This can lead to recurring injuries. We believe in going in-depth, so you will not experience future debilitating problems.
Because so often our greatest athletes are also our students, our team trains to work with children well. Growth spurts and scoliosis checks come up at this time too! Take advantage of our full commercial gym and rehabilitation area for your recovery.
