Dr. Webb has a particular interest in the treatment of knee disorders involving the injury of articular cartilage. He has obtained the most advanced training available to treat these difficult injuries and performs complex procedures, including one that requires special certification that only a limited number of orthopedic surgeons have earned.
Cartilage injury is the most common source of knee pain. Over two million people in the U.S. suffer cartilage problems each year. The cause may be secondary to injury, or may develop gradually without trauma. Whatever the cause, areas of damaged cartilage may cause pain and at times swelling; both of which make it difficult to maintain an active lifestyle.
Seacoast Orthopedics & Sports Medicine offers a full range of state-of-the-art treatment options for knee cartilage injuries. These include the latest minimally invasive and arthroscopic procedures. In some cases, not only will these procedures resolve pain and restore function, they may also delay the progression of arthritis.
