Conditions We Treat
At The Medical Group of New Jersey, our non-surgical orthopedic and sports medicine team provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment for a wide range of joint, muscle, tendon, ligament, bone, and nerve disorders. Explore the most common conditions below. Each links to a dedicated Clinical Patient Journey, where patients can learn what to expect from symptoms through diagnosis, treatment, and recovery.
Osteoarthritis—often called “wear-and-tear arthritis”—causes joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility in the knees, hips, hands, and shoulders. We provide personalized treatment plans using medication, injections, physical therapy, and activity modification, with a strong focus on improving stability and daily function.
Back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal concerns. Whether symptoms stem from muscle strain, disc issues, facet irritation, or posture-related stress, our team performs a thorough evaluation and builds a step-by-step plan to reduce pain and prevent recurrence.
Conditions such as tennis elbow, Achilles tendonitis, trochanteric bursitis, and pes anserine bursitis cause localized pain and swelling around tendons and bursal sacs. We offer rest protocols, targeted exercises, ultrasound-guided injections, and activity modification to speed healing.
From ACL and meniscus tears to ankle sprains and ligament injuries, sports-related trauma requires precise diagnosis and a customized recovery program. We use on-site imaging, bracing, and rehabilitation strategies to return athletes safely to their sport.
Shoulder pain, weakness, or impingement may indicate rotator cuff tendinopathy or a partial tear. Our team offers evaluation, activity modification, physical therapy plans, anti-inflammatory strategies, and image-guided injections to improve function and reduce pain.
Stress fractures in the tibia, foot, or hip can occur with repetitive impact or low bone density. We identify the underlying cause through imaging and provide rest, protected weight-bearing, and nutrition guidance.
Median nerve compression can cause numbness, tingling, and hand weakness. Our team performs nerve testing, offers splinting or injections, and coordinates surgical referral only when necessary.
Weak or brittle bones increase the risk of fractures — especially of the spine and hip. We provide DEXA-based assessments, bone-strengthening medications, fall-prevention strategies, and coordination with endocrinology and physical therapy.
Shin splints, IT band syndrome, and patellofemoral pain syndrome develop from repetitive strain. We evaluate biomechanics, training load, footwear, and strength imbalances to reduce pain and prevent recurrence.
Conditions such as myofascial pain, centralized pain, and complex regional pain syndrome require a multimodal approach. Our team offers physical therapy, injections, lifestyle modifications, and coordination with pain specialists for long-term relief.
