National Institutes of Health: Proper Knee Alignment May Prevent Arthritis Knee Pain

By Dr. Alexandra Schnee, DC · September 3, 2010 · Filed in Knee Pain · No Comments »

The National Institutes of Health recently conducted a research study on knee alignment and how it affects the knee joint.  A research team followed 2,713 volunteers from Birmingham and Iowa City.  The volunteers were between the ages of 50-79.  All of them either had arthritis in their knees or they were considered at high risk for developing arthritis because they were either overweight, had a previous knee injury, or had undergone previous knee surgery.

First, X-rays were taken and knee alignment was measured.   The alignment was measured and the angle was noted at the point the femur (upper leg) and tibia (lower leg) intersected at the knee joint.  Anything more or less than a 2 degree difference from the normal 180 degree was noted.  X-rays and measurements were taken again 2 years later.

The research team discovered that in volunteers whose knee alignment measured a 2 degree difference (more or less) there was a 1.5 times greater risk for developing arthritis compared to those with a normal (180 degree) alignment.

In a healthy knee 70% of all the force is placed on the medial aspect of the knee (inside). If  the knee joint is out of  alignment the stress on the inside of the knee increases which in turn wears down the inside of the knee at a faster rate.  The NIH research team concluded that if a misaligned knee is corrected early on arthritis could be prevented.

To correct poor alignment of the knee visit a chiropractor, and wear good shoes that provide proper support.  An orthotic may be necessary if you are flat footed or if you have too high of an arch.  In addition, a chiropractor who specializes in the knee joint can give you proper exercises to strengthen and provide support for proper knee alignment.

If you suffer from severe arthritic knee pain and are tired of taking pain medications, getting knee injections, and you don’t want knee surgery; then call Dr. Schnee at 214-596-1051 to find out if you’re a candidate for her Cold Laser Knee Program.

The Top 6 Things You Can Start Doing Today To Help Ease Your Arthritic Knee Pain

By Dr. Alexandra Schnee, DC · August 25, 2010 · Filed in Health, Knee Pain · No Comments »

Please make sure you check with your primary doctor first before taking any supplements or starting an exercise program, but here’s a list of the top 6 things that you can start doing today to help ease your arthritic knee pain:

1. Start taking glucosamine, chondroitan, and MSM. I recommend Chondrocare from Metagenics to my patients. In my opinion has the highest quality glucosamine, chondroitan and MSM product available. If you’d like to purchase a bottle call my office and we’ll be happy to ship it to you (as long as you live in North America).

2. Take real Cod liver oil. It is a great source of omega 3 and Vitamin D. Research indicates that bone, joint and muscle pain is exacerbated if there are low levels of Vitamin D. Research also indicates that patients who take NON SYNTHETIC, HIGH QUALITY glucosamine sulfate, chondroitan, and MSM ALONG WITH OMEGA 3 notice a significant difference in their arthritic pain. The latest scientific findings show that people who combine glucosamine and omega 3 get up to 80% pain relief, with decreased morning stiffness. Pain in the hips was reduced by over 48% and in the knees by more than 55%. One of the last real cod liver oils made is Blue Ice™ Fermented Cod Liver Oil (2-3 capsules daily). This can be purchased at any good health food store. Please note: most cod liver oil today is stripped from vitamin D and lots of other nutrients. Some are replaced with synthetic vitamin D but that’s not what you want. So make sure it is real, raw and fermented cod liver oil.

3. Drink plenty of water (cartilage is made up of 70% water), and avoid caffeine.

4. Stop eating processed foods and sugars. This is pretty straight forward.

5. Try to keep your diet at least one-third raw whole foods (fruits, vegetables, nuts). Keep in mind red meat has arachidonic acid which causes an inflammatory reaction in the body and often exacerbates arthritic symptoms.

6. Start exercising only once you are no longer in the acute stage otherwise you will probably damage the joint more.

The bones, joints, and connective tissue are living tissue and in a constant state of renewal and restoration. Therefore, simple changes in your lifestyle like taking high quality vitamins, supplements, and changing your diet and activity level can make a real difference in easing your arthritic knee pain.

Study Suggests Results from Therapy Are Just As Good As Knee Surgery for a Torn ACL

Unfortunately, every young athlete is at risk for tearing their anterior cruciate ligament or ACL.  Most of the time orthopedic surgeons and patients rush to surgery to reconstruct the ACL, but the problem is there are no long term research studies proving that surgery is better than therapy.  And even though there is no proof indicating that knee surgery has better outcomes then rehab alone there are approximately 200,000 ACL reconstructions performed and over 3 billion dollars  spent annually on this procedure in the United States.

Recently Swedish Researchers published a study in the New England Journal of Medicine proving that rehab alone is just as good as knee surgery for torn ACLs.  Researchers randomly assigned 121 young active adults with torn ACLs into two separate groups.  The first group ONLY underwent therapy to rehabilitate the knee with the OPTION to have knee surgery in the future.  The second group had therapy first but also had ACL reconstruction surgery.

Surprisingly, after two years the results were about the same in both groups when it came to pain and activities of daily living.  And most importantly 61% of the patients that were in the group that only had therapy did not choose to have knee surgery.

Sadly, since there is a lot of money to be made by surgeons and hospitals performing surgeries, this study will probably not make a difference in the number of ACL reconstruction’s performed annually. However, I hope that individuals with a torn ACL give therapy a chance and talk to their doctors about all nonsurgical options available, including cold laser therapy, prior to undergoing ANY type of knee surgery.

Keep in mind, surgery is always an option, but should only be considered once all other options have been exhausted.

Do You Suffer With Knee Pain On The Inside Area Of The Knee Where The Knees Touch?

The majority of patients who experience knee pain have it on the inside area of the knee where the knees touch (medial joint line).  Many times this type of knee pain is due to cartilage loss on the inside of the knee, or a meniscus or cartilage tear.

Zena W., an 80 year old, retiree in Dallas, Texas is a perfect example of a patient who came to see Dr. Schnee complaining of burning pain in the medial aspect of her knee and in the back of her knee.  Her knee pain had become so severe that it kept her from sleeping at night because every time she turned over in bed and her knees touched, she would wake up from the pain.  She also felt pain when she walked that was so intense, it make her feel ‘sick’.

Zena W. came to see Dr. Schnee at the DFW Spine & Joint Center after having visited her orthopedic doctor for several gel injections (SYNVISC injections) and one cortisone injection.  Unfortunately, these knee injections were ineffective and did nothing to ease her knee pain.  Finally, the orthopedic doctor recommended a MRI after having done everything he could do to help her, finally suggesting total knee replacement surgery.  The MRI showed a medial meniscus tear, cartilage loss, and a Baker’s Cyst (popliteal cyst).

Zena W. did not want a knee replacement because she hated the thought of ‘having her bones cut off.’ She also lived in an independent living facility and felt that she did not have the support needed to go through major surgery and complete the rehabilitation necessary needed after a total knee replacement.  As a result she decided to undergo Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program in an attempt to achieve some knee pain relief without undergoing knee surgery.

This is what Zena W. wrote about her experience with Dr. Schnee after completing treatments at the DFW Spine & Joint Center:

“I am pleased with the overall results of my treatment.  I am 95% better now after completing care [Dr. Schnees’ Cold Laser Knee Program].   Now it doesn’t hurt very much to walk and [my knee] feels better all over without the pain in my knee.  Thanks Dr. Schnee for your personal interest. You are a great doctor.”

If you have severe knee pain on the inside area of the knee where the knees touch (medial joint line) and have been diagnosed with arthritis of the knee, bone on bone, or a medial meniscus  tear and you do not want surgery then call Dr. Schnee’s office at 214-596-1051.

Do you have ‘bone on bone’ knee pain and want to avoid or are not a candidate for total knee replacement surgery?

There is a large subgroup of patients 55 years of age and older who have been diagnosed as having ‘bone on bone’ or severe degenerative arthritis in their knees, and are either not candidates for knee surgery or do not want to undergo total knee replacement surgery.  Many of these patients either feel they are too young and the replacement won’t last; concerned with the risks associated with knee surgery; in poor health and are unable to have surgery; or unwilling to do the rehab necessary after the surgery is performed.   Usually patients suffering with ‘bone on bone’ knee pain or arthritis knee pain regard knee replacement surgery as their final option and are thrilled if they experience a 50-90% improvement in knee pain relief with non-surgical options such as cold laser therapy.

Mrs. Nikki G., from Carrollton Texas ,is a good example of someone who was diagnosed by an orthopedic surgeon as having ‘bone on bone’ knee pain but after completing Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program is now virtually pain free and will avoid knee surgery.

“I visited an orthopedic surgeon twice [before visiting with Dr. Schnee] because everyday activities were a hardship.  For awhile I had to use crutches but it was just impossible [to get around].  Everything seemed twice as hard to do.  My knee hurt most of the time especially when walking, standing and stair climbing.  It was difficult to straighten my knee making it difficult to sleep comfortably.  The orthopedic surgeon suggested that I start out trying anti-inflammatories and physical therapy.  He said that if those options didn’t work then I would have to have shots and then [knee] surgery.  I did some physical therapy but was not happy with the progress. [ So I finally decided to do research on non-invasive knee treatments on the internet and I found Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program].  Since completing care with Dr. Schnee I can go about my normal activities with ease and I can finally sleep at night without knee pain.  I am very pleased with my treatment and the results from cold laser therapy.  I feel like my knee is about 80% improved!”

Are there patients who don’t realize any improvements after completing Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program?  Yes, just as with any other treatment, there is a small percentage of patients who may not realize any improvement at all.  However, the good news is that are no side effects from treatments.

In addition, Dr. Schnee has two policies which she strictly adheres to preventing her from wasting anyone’s time.  First, if she doesn’t believe that she can help a patient she will not accept their case. Second, she will not start care with a patient whose expectations are unreasonable.   For example, a patient suffering with significant cartilage loss with the goal of running a marathon would not be considered a candidate for the Cold Laser Knee Program.  On the other hand, the same patient with the simple goal of significantly less knee pain, better joint mobility, a reduction in swelling and an overall better quality of life would be considered an ideal candidate for care.

If you are suffering from ‘bone on bone’ knee pain or severe degenerative arthritis in the knee and want to avoid or are not a candidate for knee surgery, and would be thrilled with a 50%-90% improvement in knee pain, reduction in swelling, and increased joint mobility then consider Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program as an option.

Arthroscopic Knee Surgery to Repair ACL Injuries or Meniscus Tears Won’t Stop Osteoarthritis from Developing In the Knee

A study published in the journal of Radiology (August 2010 issue) followed 326 men and women 10 years after they had arthroscopic knee surgery to repair torn Anterior Cruciate Ligaments (ACL) and meniscus tears. Initially, researchers hypothesized that patients who had arthroscopic knee surgery would lower their risk for developing osteoarthritis in their knee and also lower their risk for other complications such as loss of cartilage, lesions in the bone marrow, and narrowing of the joint space.  However, this was not the case, osteoarthritis developed in the men and women’s knees’ despite doing knee surgery to fix the injuries.

This research study confirms what I view on x-rays on daily basis which is surgery does NOT stop osteoarthritis it actually helps contribute and speeds up the process of cartilage loss and deterioration!

The bottom line is knee surgery will not prevent osteoarthritis in the knee, so don’t be fooled into thinking that it will…

Are you sure that you have No Cartilage in your Knee, and it is Completely Bone on Bone?

By Dr. Alexandra Schnee, DC · June 14, 2010 · Filed in Knee Pain · No Comments »

I want to clarify the term ‘bone on bone’ which unfortunately is overused and is often incorrectly used when it comes to the knee joint.

Most often patients who have been diagnosed with severe osteoarthritis of the knee are told they are ‘bone on bone’.  Patients automatically think that this means they have no cartilage in their entire knee joint.  When in actuality, if you took an x-ray of their knee, it would probably show a SMALL area or PATCH in their knee joint that had very little cartilage remaining (90% of the time this occurs on the inside or medial aspect of the knee joint).

My point is that the majority of the time there is cartilage in the knee, and if there is a patch of cartilage that has worn down it usually never involves the entire knee joint.  If the entire knee joint was involved, then it would be correctly diagnosed as complete ‘bone on bone’. However, these patients would be wheelchair bound, and not able to straighten or bend their knee.

Since 2001, and after completing over 32,000 cold laser treatments, I’ve only seen a handful of cases that could truly be classified as complete ‘bone on bone’ in the entire knee joint.  ‘Bone on bone’, is a very visual term so orthopedic doctors find it a lot easier to describe a patient’s condition to them as being ‘bone on bone’ rather than explaining that there is only a small patch in the joint that is worn down etc…Unfortunately, these patients leave the surgeons office feeling hopeless and really don’t have a full understanding of their condition so they think they have absolutely no cartilage left in their entire knee and that they need a knee replacement.

Please don’t feel hopeless! If you’ve been told that you are ‘bone on bone’ and that you need a total knee replacement there are other non-invasive options available.  Overall, more research has been conducted with cold laser therapy to help eliminate or reduce osteoarthritis arthritis joint pain than with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS- the standard prescribed drug) and knee injections. Cold Laser Therapy is safer and frequently more effective than drug therapies, injections and arthroscopic knee surgery.  If you are suffering from osteoarthritis knee pain and are not ready for a total knee replacement then you should consider Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program.

What is the Most Effective, Non-Invasive Treatment Option Available for Knee Pain Relief?

By Dr. Alexandra Schnee, DC · June 8, 2010 · Filed in Knee Pain · No Comments »

After reviewing the pros and cons of cold laser therapy and comparing them to the most commonly prescribed non-invasive treatment options available for knee pain relief I am sure you will conclude that cold laser therapy is the most effective non-invasive treatment option available.

Let’s begin by discussing the various non-surgical options to treat knee pain:

Cortizone Injections or Steroid Injections :
Besides anti-inflammatories, cortizone injections are one of the most commonly prescribed treatments for knee pain.  Unfortunately, the effects of a cortisone injection are temporary in nature and often times a patient will further injure their knee because the injection masks the pain but does not fix the problem.   Once the cortisone injection wears-off the pain comes back, and sometimes worse than it was prior to getting the injection.  In addition, a doctor will only prescribe three cortisone injections a year because the injections are known to deteriorate bone.  Beware of getting cortisone injections if you are a diabetic it may cause havoc on your sugar levels.

Conclusion: Painful, Short-term and long term side-effects, not safe for long term use, Temporary Relief, Treats symptoms, Diabetics and patients with brittle bones beware.

Synvisc™, Orthovisc™, Hyalgen™, Euflexxa™,  AKA: knee gel injections,  AKA: Rooster comb injections for the knee:
Rooster comb injections are given in a series of 3 or 5 injections over the course of several weeks, and the series can be repeated every 6 months.  If you ask just about any knee pain sufferer that has had these painful injections most will tell you that the injections did NOTHING to help relieve their knee pain.  Unfortunately, if you do notice any knee pain relief it will typically last only 6 months.  Most patients who choose to undergo the series of injections every 6 months over the course of a few years may eventually experience an allergic reaction.  There have been no long-term studies completed so long-term side-effects are unknown.

Conclusion: Painful, Short-term and long-term side-effects, unclear how safe it is for long term use, Temporary Relief, Treats symptoms, Series of injections

Anti-Inflammatory
The results from anti-inflammatories are temporary in nature and patients need to continue taking them on a daily basis in order to feel any results.  In addition, over the long run NSAIDS can cause ulcers and ibuprofen can cause liver problems.

Conclusion: Not painful, Short-term and long term side-effects, not safe for long term use, Temporary relief-needs continuous use to be effective

Cold Laser Therapy (Class IIIB lasers)
Cold Laser Therapy has been around for over 35 years in Europe and Asia, and 15 years in the United States.  There are over 2,500 published studies on the topic of cold laser therapy and (many of them are double blind, placebo controlled studies).  The treatment is FDA cleared, safe, painless, and there are no side-effects with treatments.  Unfortunately, cold laser therapy is not a quick fix especially when treating chronic knee pain.  Even though patients may notice improvement after just a few treatments most patients undergo a series of treatments over a 5-10 week period depending on the severity of their knee problem.  Once the treatments are completed most patients will notice that the results are not temporary in nature. It is not uncommon that as a result of cold laser treatments symptoms such as knee pain, swelling, immobility may be completely eliminated or substantially reduced.  Patients suffering with severe and chronic knee pain may need periodic maintenance treatments. Also make sure you choose a doctor that specializes in using cold lasers to treat knee pain otherwise you make not get the results you deserve.

Conclusion: Safe, painless, no side-effects, typically knee pain relief is NOT temporary in nature, takes a series of treatments and then possible periodic follow ups are needed, to get the best results pick a doctor that treats only knees and specializes in cold laser therapy.

Cold Laser Therapy Helped Intense Knee Pain When Surgery and Injections Failed

Before coming in for cold laser therapy with Dr. Schnee the pain in my left knee was intense!  It felt like someone took a chisel, put it on the inner side of my left leg and banged away.  Each step I took hurt.  I wasn’t able to stand and put any pressure on my left knee.  Going up and down the stairs was nearly impossible.

Prior to undergoing Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program I had multiple knee surgeries.  I have had physical therapy for my knee several times. I’ve had multiple rounds of Synvisc injections.  None of these have helped to any great extent.  My last knee surgery was just over a year ago and it was WORTHLESS.  My knee pain was still significant.  I was told that I would need knee replacement surgery sooner than later. 

Since completing Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program I am very pleased with the results.  I now have little to no knee pain.  The exercises that she had me doing have greatly increased my confidence in everyday activities.  My knee feels strong and secure.  My knee has improved 80-90%.   Dr. Alexandra Schnee’s staff is great!

Dallas Knee Pain Patient, Can Sleep Better at Night after Cold Laser Therapy

By Dr. Alexandra Schnee, DC · May 20, 2010 · Filed in Knee Pain, Testimonial · No Comments »

My knees felt pretty bad-especially when going up and down stairs and going on long walks.  I also had a difficult time getting comfortable in bed to sleep.  I had arthroscopic in 1997 and I was told I needed a total knee replacement.

Since completing Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program I can now walk, sleep better at night and I can climb stairs with hardly any pain now.  I am pleased with my overall experience and I am about 70% better than I was before starting care.
