Currently, approximately 80% of patients presenting with joint pain have multiple underlying causes. These include age-related joint degeneration, injuries to joints, bones, ligaments, or muscles, or a combination of factors such as joint wear compounded by medication use or chemical exposure, pre-existing chronic diseases combined with joint overuse. Joint pain may also result from inflammatory conditions related to various diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, post-infections, gouty arthritis, or calcification. If these conditions are not accurately diagnosed and appropriately managed according to their underlying causes, they can progress in severity, leading to chronic joint degeneration and potentially resulting in disability.
The Comprehensive Orthopaedic Centre at BNH Hospital provides extensive care for bone, joint, ligament, and muscle-related disorders. Our multidisciplinary team includes specialists in hand and wrist surgery, foot and ankle care, shoulder and general joint disorders, as well as hip and knee expertise. Additionally, we have skilled sport injury specialists dedicated to diagnosing, treating, and rehabilitating all types of sports-related injuries. This integrated approach ensures complete care from diagnosis to treatment and rehabilitation tailored to each patient’s needs.
Common causes of joint abnormalities treated include:
- Traumatic injuries from accidents or sports causing bone fractures, ligament tears, or muscle injuries
- Infectious or autoimmune-related inflammation, gouty arthritis, or calcium deposits
- Age-related joint degeneration, often exacerbated by medications, chemicals, or trauma
- Chronic conditions with repetitive joint strain, such as osteoarthritis or frozen shoulder
- Congenital or developmental joint anomalies
- Bone and soft tissue tumors affecting cartilage, joint capsules, ligaments, muscles, or surrounding nerves
Indicative symptoms of joint disorders are:
- Joint pain, often accompanied by swelling, redness, or warmth
- Abnormal joint movement, instability, sensations of looseness, or dislocation
- Structural bone abnormalities or palpable lumps
- Numbness or muscle weakness near the affected joints, or impaired joint function
Frequently encountered shoulder joint disorders include:
- Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is characterized by painful restriction from chronic inflammation and fibrosis, commonly affecting diabetic, thyroid, or cervical spondylosis patients
- Rotator cuff tendinitis or tears causing pain and functional limitation
- Recurrent shoulder dislocations
- Calcific tendinitis resulting from calcium deposits within tendons
- Shoulder impingement syndrome due to tendon irritation against bony prominences
Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is characterized by progressive degeneration of joint cartilage and underlying bone, leading to pain, limited movement, joint noises, and deformities. It results from aging, trauma, chronic inflammation, vascular insufficiency, or medication effects such as steroids. Treatment is stage-dependent, ranging from medication, lifestyle modification, and physical therapy in early stages, to arthroplasty (joint replacement surgery) in advanced or refractory cases. Prosthetic joints are composed of biocompatible metals designed to sustain prolonged mechanical stress.
