While running with friends in the forest, a boy accidentally cut his thigh muscle on a sharp branch. He was treated in a hospital and instructed to rest the limb and take care of the wound regularly. Two months later, a follow-up with the trauma surgeon showed everything was healing properly, bringing relief to everyone.
A 57-year-old patient came to our clinic. A year earlier, he had undergone a right knee replacement. Despite his surgeon assuring him that the operation was successful, his knee pain remained the same as before. He consulted an orthopedist and neurologist, underwent vascular exams, took medication, and received pain-relief injections, but the relief was always short-lived. Even minimal exertion or squatting brought the pain back.
A patient came to us after suffering from heel pain for over six months. He had received injections from an orthopedist, undergone rehabilitation at another center, tried shockwave therapy and X-ray treatment—all without significant relief. His first steps each morning were painful; at night, he couldn’t even walk to the bathroom, and during the day, the pain worsened. If he sat for a while, he had to “walk it off” again. By the time he reached us, the heel of his other foot had also started hurting.
