Osteoporosis
Arthritis
Arthritis is a common hip problem. It can cause pain, stiffness, and make it hard to do everyday activities such as walking or climbing stairs. The major types of arthritis that affect the hip are osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and post-traumatic arthritis. Osteoarthritis is the most common and is caused by the cartilage of the hip joint gradually wearing away and becoming frayed. This can eventually result in bone rubbing on bone.
Plantar Fasciitis
Medical Weight Loss
There are many factors that contribute to the development of arthritis. Your genes play a role and many patients note a family history. An injury of the joint space may cause the arthritis to advance more quickly. Weight gain can also play a role. Many patient note improvements in pain after even a small weight loss.
Emergency Care
When the joint surfaces of an elbow are separated, the elbow is dislocated. Elbow dislocations can be complete or partial, and usually occur after a trauma, such as a fall or accident. A complete elbow dislocation is extremely painful and very obvious. The arm will look deformed and may have an odd twist at the elbow. A partial elbow dislocation or subluxation can be harder to detect. The elbow may appear fairly normal and will usually move fairly well, but there may be pain. The normal alignment of the elbow can usually be restored in an emergency department at the hospital. In a complex elbow dislocation, surgery may be necessary to restore bone alignment and repair ligaments.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common hand problem resulting from pressure on the median nerve at the wrist. Symptoms, which often get worse at night, consist of numbness and/or pain in the wrist and fingers. Eventually there is loss of strength, fine motor control, and sensation. Early treatment consists of splinting and anti-inflammatory medication. If symptoms do not improve, an outpatient surgical procedure to relieve the pressure on the nerve is suggested.

MRI
The diagnosis can be made by a physical examination. Other tests which may help your doctor confirm your diagnosis include X-rays, CT, and MRI.
Radiology
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
The diagnoses can be made by a physical examination and a gait analysis. Other tests which may help your doctor confirm your diagnosis include X-rays, MRI, CT scans, Myelogram, and Electromyography (EMG).

Orthopedics
“ This was my first visit to Chippewa Valley Orthopedics and they were amazing. They got right to the problem of my knee issues and gave me my options. They explained completely what my problem was and scheduled me within a few days for surgery. The doctors and staff were very personable! I would highly recommend!
Sciatica
Sciatica may feel like a bad leg cramp, with pain that is sharp (knife-like), or electrical. The cramp can last for weeks before it goes away. You may have pain, especially when you move, sneeze, or cough. You may also have weakness, "pins and needles" numbness, or a burning or tingling sensation down your leg. This pain is caused by a protruding (herniated) disk in your spinal column that is pressing on the nerve roots in the lumbar spine. The vast majority of patients with sciatica get better over time without surgery, typically within several weeks. If you still have disabling leg pain after three months or more, your herniated disk may have to be removed.
Arthroscopy
When nonsurgical interventions are not enough to control symptoms, surgery may be needed. Arthroscopy can smooth irregular surfaces and remove any loose bone fragments or damaged tissue. If the joint surface has worn away completely, a joint replacement is needed to relieve the symptoms.
Pinched Nerve
As part of the physical examination, your doctor will likely conduct some range of motion and strength tests. Your doctor will check for other problems with your shoulder joint. They may also examine your neck to make sure that the pain is not coming from a "pinched nerve" and to rule out other conditions.
Bunion Surgery
A bunion is a painful bony bump that develops on the inside of the foot at the big toe joint. They develop slowly as pressure on the big toe joint causes the big toe to lean toward the second toe. Over time, the normal structure of the bone changes, resulting in the bunion bump. This deformity will gradually increase and may make it painful to wear shoes or walk. In most cases, bunion pain is relieved by wearing wider shoes with adequate toe room and using other simple treatments to reduce pressure on the big toe. Surgery may be recommended if you have pain and difficulty walking despite changes in footwear and other nonsurgical treatments. Bunion surgery realigns bone, ligaments, tendons, and nerves so that the big toe can be brought back to its correct position.
Joint Replacement
The most common site of arthritis in the foot is at the base of the big toe, or MTP joint. If the joint starts to stiffen, walking can become painful and difficult. The ends of the bones in the joint are covered by a smooth articular cartilage. If wear-and-tear or injury damage the articular cartilage, the raw bone ends can rub together and create a bone spur that prevents the toe from bending when you walk. Surgery is typically recommended to remove the bone spur and a portion of the foot bone so the toe has more room to move. If the damage is more severe, fusing the bones together (arthrodesis) is often recommended. The damaged cartilage is removed, and pins, screws, or a plate are used to fix the joint in a permanent position. Older patients who place few functional demands on the feet may be candidates for joint replacement surgery.
Bunions
Arthroscopy
Ingrown Toenails
Hip Replacement
Patients with advanced arthritis of the hip may be candidates for either total hip replacement or hip resurfacing. Each of these procedures is a type of hip replacement, but there are important differences. There are several advantages to each approach.Your orthopedic surgeon will talk with you about the different procedures and which operation would be best for you.
Knee Replacement
A total knee replacement is an joint surgery that resurfaces an arthritic knee joint with a metal, plastic, or ceramic replacement part.

Calluses
People often blame the common foot deformity claw toe on wearing shoes that squeeze your toes. However, claw toe is also caused by nerve damage due to diseases like diabetes or alcoholism. Having claw toe means your toes "claw," digging down into the soles of your shoes and creating painful calluses. Claw toe deformities are usually flexible at first, but they harden into place over time. If you have claw toe in early stages, your doctor may recommend a splint or tape to hold your toes in correct position.

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
Rely on the experience of our sports medicine team when you experience any sports-related injury or issue. You can count on prompt, proper diagnosis and customized treatment plan to meet your goals. Our orthopedic surgeons and our athletic trainers serve many area schools.
Physical Therapy
This is a serious injury where you break your kneecap, usually due to a fall. If the broken pieces are still lined up, you'll get an immobilizer brace to hold everything in place as you heal. For a more serious fracture, you typically need surgery. Your doctor may use screws, pins, or wires to hold the pieces of bone in place. In either case, you'll need physical therapy to work through stiffness, get your range of motion back, and build leg strength.
Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder can develop after an injury. You may also have medical conditions making you more prone to developing this condition. Over time, the shoulder becomes painful and stiff. After a period of worsening symptoms frozen shoulder tends to get better, although full recovery may take up to several years. Physical therapy is the primary treatment recommendation. If your symptoms are not relieved by therapy and other conservative methods, your doctor may perform injections or recommend surgery.
Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow and golfer's elbow are both types of tendon degenerative conditions. Tennis elbow is on the outside of the elbow and golfer's elbow is on the inside part of the elbow. Athletes are not the only people who develop these conditions. It is a common condition for people who participate in work or recreational activities that require repetitive and vigorous use of the forearm muscle. Typically, the pain begins as mild and slowly worsens over weeks and months. In most cases, patients have success with nonsurgical treatments such as rest, medications, physical therapy, bracing, steroid injections, or shock wave therapy. If symptoms do not improve after 6 to 12 months of nonsurgical treatments, your doctor may recommend surgery.
Flatfoot Correction
Heel Pain
Back Pain
Orthotics and Prosthetic Therapy

Ankle Instability
Surgical treatment is reserved for injuries that fail to respond to nonsurgical treatment and for patients who experience persistent ankle instability after months of rehabilitation and nonsurgical treatment.
Ankle Sprain
Foot and ankle injuries include the injuries in the leg below the knee and are common while playing sports. Treatment for some of these conditions may be orthotics, braces, physical therapy, injections or surgery. Common sports injuries include ligament tears, ankle fractures, and Achilles tendinitis.
Bunions Problems
Calluses
Diabetic Foot Care
Hammertoes
A hammer toe is a deformity of the second, third, or fourth toes. In this condition, the toe is bent at the middle joint, so that it resembles a hammer. Initially, hammer toes are flexible and can be corrected with simple measures but, if left untreated, they can become fixed and require surgery.
Heel Pain
Ingrown Toenails
An ingrown toenail is when the sides of the nail curl down and dig into your skin. Trimming your toenails too short (particularly on the sides of your big toes) or wearing shoes that are too tight or too short can cause ingrown toenails. If ingrown toenails are recognized early, home care may prevent the need for further treatment. If excessive inflammation, swelling, pain, and discharge are present, the toenail may be infected and should be treated by a physician. You may need to take oral antibiotics and the nail may need to be partially or completely removed with surgery.
Foot Neuroma
If you sometimes feel that you are "walking on a marble", and you have persistent pain in the ball of your foot, you may have a condition called Morton's neuroma. It most frequently develops between the third and fourth toes usually in response to irritation, trauma, or excessive pressure. A combination of roomier, more comfortable shoes, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication, custom foot orthoses, and cortisone injections provide relief in over 80 percent of people with Morton's Neuroma. If conservative treatment does not relieve your symptoms, your orthopedic surgeon may discuss surgical treatment options with you.
Pediatric Foot Care
Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is the most common cause of pain on the bottom of the heel. Approximately 2 million patients are treated for this condition every year. Plantar fasciitis occurs when the strong band of tissue that supports the arch of your foot becomes inflamed. More than 90% of patients with plantar fasciitis will improve within 10 months of starting simple at-home treatment methods. When more-conservative measures aren't working after several months, your doctor might recommend steroid injections, Tenex procedure, or surgery.
Podiatric Deformities
Clubfoot is a deformity in which an infant's foot is turned inward, often so severely that the bottom of the foot faces sideways or even upward. Approximately one infant in every 1,000 live births will have clubfoot, making it one of the more common congenital foot deformities. Clubfoot is not painful during infancy. However, if your child's clubfoot is not treated, the foot will remain deformed, and he or she will not be able to walk normally. Most cases of clubfoot are successfully treated with nonsurgical methods that may include a combination of stretching, casting, and bracing. Treatment usually begins shortly after birth.
