Sports medicine Berlin – diagnostics and therapy in sports orthopedics

One of the main focuses of sportorthopaedie.berlin is the examination and treatment of sports-related complaints and pain in the musculoskeletal system. Patients are often active people who have been suffering from unclear pain in the hip, shoulder or knee for several years. This includes both amateur and competitive athletes of all ages. In order to relieve the pain, many of those affected take a long break from sport or undergo intensive conservative therapy that is unsuccessful.

Dr. Alexander Moser is a German and international specialist in the fields of sports medicine and sports orthopedics. Based on a detailed diagnosis, he determines the treatment plan that is best suited to you. In addition to conservative therapy, Dr. Moser is a proven expert in minimally invasive joint surgery.

Goal of Sports Orthopedics in Berlin

First, Dr. Moser exhausts the conservative treatment options to avoid surgical treatment as much as possible. However, if conservative measures do not promise any improvement, the sportorthopaedie.berlin repertoire also includes the most modern minimally invasive treatments and the provision of artificial joints. Dr. Moser is an international expert in the field of arthroscopy (joint endoscopy). The focus of the treatment is on rapid and lasting pain relief, improved mobility and the associated increase in enjoyment of life.

The aim is for you to be able to quickly return to your favorite sport without restrictions or discomfort. The risk of further, serious consequences is also reduced by modern and gentle therapies. The inpatient stay is kept as short as possible and usually lasts only a few days.

Life is Movement

Humans are designed for movement. Sport and exercise keep the body and mind healthy, while a lack of exercise promotes illness. If pain and restrictions in the musculoskeletal system occur due to misalignment, injuries, wear and tear or illness, this also severely limits the quality of life of the affected people.

Intensive sport can lead to intense pain in the groin, shoulders or knees even at a young age. For athletes, this often means that they can no longer pursue their passion. In these cases, advice and treatment from an expert are extremely important so that you can pursue your sport again without discomfort. An incorrect treatment approach is often not only unsuccessful, it can also lead to further discomfort and wear and tear.

If you suffer from sports-related pain that prevents you from continuing to play sports, Dr. Moser is your specialist for sports orthopedics in Berlin. The nationally and internationally renowned sports orthopedist has many years of experience and expertise in this complex field and is an expert in minimally invasive and muscle-sparing treatment techniques.

Diagnosis of sports-related injuries and illnesses

Finding the cause of the previously unclear pain is an important basis for determining the appropriate therapy. Therefore, a detailed medical history is carried out beforehand. During this conversation, you describe the location and type of pain, what sport you do and how often, and whether you have any known previous illnesses.

Hip, shoulder and knee pathologies are not uncommon in people who participate in sports. However, many doctors are unable to adequately diagnose or treat these conditions. It is therefore important to consult a sports orthopedic expert.

In our sportorthopaedie.berlin, modern examination methods are available in addition to the doctor's consultation. These include:

X-rays and ultrasound images
coordination tests
performance tests
running and movement analyses
force measurements
bone density measurements
further imaging procedures (e.g. MRI)

Conservative and Physical Therapy of Sports Medicine Berlin

Before considering surgical treatment, Dr. Moser exhausts the conservative therapies of sports orthopedics in Berlin. Of course, this always depends on the individual findings. The respective therapies can be adapted and varied accordingly. The repertoire includes:

Fixation mit Verbänden, Tapes, Schienen oder Gips
Entlastung und Ruhigstellung durch Verbände, Gehhilfen, Korsette
Physiotherapie (u. a. Bewegungstherapie, geführte Bewegungen, Muskelaufbau)
Wärmetherapie
Kältetherapie
Elektrotherapie
shock wave therapy
Ultraschalltherapie
medikamentöse Therapie (u. a. Schmerzhemmer, Entzündungshemmer)
Injektionstherapie (z. B. Hyaluronsäure, Kortison, PRP)

Surgical treatment options

Surgical treatments can be used to treat damaged structures and correct misalignments. Dr. Moser uses gentle procedures that leave muscles and soft tissue as intact as possible. This promotes rapid regeneration.

The focus of his treatment is on preserving the natural joints; arthroscopy is the most commonly used surgical method. In cases of severe damage or intensive signs of wear (arthrosis) that require a joint replacement (artificial joint), sportorthopaedie.berlin only uses the highest quality implants that exhibit as little wear as possible. This results in a long service life and optimal satisfaction with the artificial joints.

Arthroscopy in Berlin – minimally invasive joint endoscopy of the hip, shoulder or knee

Arthroscopy (joint endoscopy) is a minimally invasive surgical method that is particularly gentle on the soft tissue. A special small camera and the necessary treatment instruments are inserted through small skin incisions that are only a few millimeters long. The camera is used to create a high-resolution visual representation of the existing tissue structures and damage on the monitor. In this way, Dr. Moser can treat the symptoms precisely and even treat incipient cartilage damage.

The minimally invasive procedure means that the subsequent healing process is comparatively quick. Patients can be discharged from inpatient treatment after a short time, or the procedure can even be performed on an outpatient basis. Rapid mobilization is always the goal and is often possible just a few hours after the procedure. The pain immediately after the treatment is also less than with standard procedures, so that patients can usually move again quickly. In most cases, returning to their favorite sport is possible after the procedure and subsequent rehabilitation treatment or physiotherapy. Patients can usually get back to their usual training plan after just a few weeks.
