Adult joint reconstruction is a subspecialty in orthopedic surgery that focuses on the management of degenerative conditions affecting all major joints. This includes the non-operative management of generalized osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis, rheumatoid disease, and post-traumatic conditions of the joints.

Treatment options include focused exercise programs, formal physical therapy, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, and other non-narcotic analgesics. Local injections may also offer significant relief from joint discomfort. Should these conservative options fail to relieve patients’ symptoms to their satisfaction, surgical options may exist.
