September 2, 2021 By FBN

Many people are aware of the hallmark symptom for COVID: loss of taste and smell. Researchers have found that the temporary loss of smell (anosmia) may be a better indicator of a COVID infection than other symptoms of fever, headache, body aches, cough, digestive upset or shortness of breath.

Cause Most tears are degenerative in nature – the tendon simply “wears out” due primarily to a decrease in blood supply at the attachment point of the tendon as we age. Patients who are especially at risk include those who engage in … [Read more...] about Rotator Cuff Tears

Total Disc Replacement in the Lumbar Spine

May 4, 2011 By techsuperadmin

Lumbar Total Disc Replacement is the next generation in the surgical care of lumbar degenerative disc disease. A lumbar total disc replacement (TDR) is a motion preserving technology now being used by spine surgeons in place of fusion. TDR aims to replace the degenerative disc, which is the pain generator, with a mobile implant, thus allowing continued motion and preventing adjacent segment degeneration, which is presumed to be the cause of long term failure of fusions. Many patients have found … [Read more...] about Total Disc Replacement in the Lumbar Spine
