The grand finale is HERE, and Dr. Bauer’s ultimate "This or That" winner is... a TIE! 🏀🏈
That’s right, both basketball and football take the crown, but for completely different reasons. While basketball is notorious for causing long-term, slow-burning wear and tear on your joints, football delivers a high volume of sudden, acute injuries.
Now that the brackets are officially closed, we want to hear from you: Which do you think is actually worse for your body over time? Chronic wear or sudden impact?
Let’s settle it in the comments! ⬇️🗣️
The results are IN for Dr. Troyer’s bracket! We’ve reached the final round of our "This or That" sports injury series, and the ultimate winner is... football! 🏈
According to Dr. Troyer, football takes the crown as the toughest sport on your joints, based on the injuries he treats.
But the debate isn't over yet! 👀 Tune in later this week to check back in with Dr. Bauer and see if football takes the win over basketball in his bracket, too. 🏀🏈

Joint replacement surgery and lymphedema share a complex relationship: pre-existing lymphedema requires specialized surgical planning, while post-surgical trauma and tissue disruption can occasionally trigger secondary lymphedema in patients with no prior history.
At Stevens Point Orthopedics, proactive management from pre-operative assessment to targeted post-operative swelling protocols is critical to mitigating lymphatic strain and ensuring optimal joint outcomes.

Lymphedema and Joint Replacement: What You Need To Know | Stevens Point Orthopedics The complications associated with joint replacement are few and rare.

Why Might I Experience Swelling After A Joint Re...
Joint replacement can seem daunting, but it doesn't have to be. Often, it’s not a sudden injury that brings patients to us, but years of wear and tear that gradually keep you from doing the things you love.
You don't have to live with the discomfort. Learn more about our Joint Journey services on our website, or schedule an appointment today to see if joint replacement is the right fit for you!

A few members of the SPO team had the opportunity to attend last week's Women in Business Luncheon. They enjoyed great food, wonderful company, and an inspiring keynote presentation.

Preparing for a joint replacement surgery isn’t just about what happens in the operating room, it includes what you do before you even get there!
Here are 6 essential preparation tactics straight from our providers:
💠Optimize Your Health: Give your body the best head start by quitting smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, and focusing on nutritious food choices.
💠Pre-Hab is Real: Complete your preoperative exercises! Improving your strength, range of motion, and function before surgery makes a massive difference afterward.
💠Prep Your Home: Make navigation a breeze. Install railings, grab bars, and clear pathways for an easy, safe entry.
💠Lock Down Your Gear: Don't wait until you're home to find a walker, cane, toilet riser, or shower chair. Have your equipment ready to go.
💠Build Your Crew: You're going to need a strong support system. Line up family or friends to help with transportation, meals, chores, yardwork, and (depending on the season!) snow removal.
💠Get Mentally Ready: Joint replacement is a major milestone that requires commitment, hard work, and motivation throughout the recovery process.
You've got this, and we're with you every step of the way!
Thinking about joint replacement or have a surgery on the calendar? Save this post to keep these tips handy! 📲
