Shoulder prosthesis
When you have problems with your shoulder such as wear and tear, a fracture or an abnormality, it is sometimes necessary to remove the joint and replace it with a prosthesis.
condition
Bursitis (shoulder)
Bursitis is a disruption of the movement pattern of the shoulder girdle. Overuse during prolonged activities reduces the space between the tendon (rotator cuff) and the shoulder roof (acromion).
condition
Shoulder impingement
When the tendons of the shoulder become chronically wedged between the roof of the shoulder and the upper arm, we speak of an entrapment (impingement) of the shoulder. This causes pain in the upper arm.
condition
Ankle osteoarthritis
Ankle osteoarthritis is the wear and tear of the cartilage in the ankle. It can result from trauma, overuse or misalignment of the foot or ankle. Sometimes it occurs spontaneously as a result of the natural aging process.
