According to a study conducted in 2006 by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS), musculoskeletal symptoms (e.g., pain, ache, soreness, discomfort, cramps, etc.) were the number two reason for physician visits. More than one in four Americans has a musculoskeletal impairment, and these disorders cost the United States nearly $850 billion yearly. The study also showed that there were more than 132 million physician visits for musculoskeletal symptoms and over seven million Americans required hospitalization for orthopedic conditions.<br />
<br />
Despite this overwhelming need, the U.S. Department of Labor found that only 3-4% of practicing physicians are orthopedic surgeons, with the number reaching a measly 25,464 in 2008.<br />

Plato once said, “The greatest mistake in the treatment of diseases is that there are physicians for the body and physicians for the soul, although the two cannot be separated.” By combining competent medical practice with genuine compassion, Dr. Panos strives to transcend physical treatment, simultaneously dealing with both the disease and the person—a holistic approach to the decadent art of caregiving.<br />

Cage fighting or mixed martial arts (MMA) is a growing sport. With the emergence of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, which viewership has increased significantly over the years, more and more athletes are being attracted to trying out MMA.<br />
<br />
And with the increase of fighters willing to trade blows inside the cage with an opponent comes the increase in casualties from the different injuries associated with the sport.<br />

1. <b>Lacerations</b> – Torn wounds are usually acquired by fighters from being hit repeatedly in the face. <br />
<br />
<div style="color: blue;"><span style="font-size: large;"><i> <b>“<a href="http://drspyrospanos.org/">Dr. Spyros Panos</a> is an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in trauma surgery, sports medicine, and joint reconstruction.”</b></i></span></div><br />
Olson gave a perfect example of this type of injury in citing UFC 131, wherein Shane Carwin was seen with a lacerated face after being beaten by Junior Dos Santos. <br />
<br />
2. <b>Upper extremity injuries</b> – Olson describes these types of injuries as any damages incurred by upper body joints, bones, or muscles, such as sprains, fractures, or bone breaks. <br />
<br />
3. <b>Concussions</b> – The head is not designed to be hit by repeated blows. Regularly being punched or kicked on the head may cause concussions, which might result to cognitive impairment. <br />
<br />
To minimize the risks that MMA fighting presents, Olson advises athletes to know when to submit to a hold and to wear proper equipment. <br />

A practicing orthopedic surgeon in New York, Dr. Panos is receiving good treatment himself from the patients who chanced to visit him with some fractured limbs and left with a good dose of health. They’re just a bunch too many, and most often come back to say thanks. <br />
<br />
<br />
In a correspondence with Dr. Panos’ wife Maria Augusta, a patient’s spouse named Donna Taylor once remarked: “Your husband is unlike any other doctor we have had over the past 40 years.” For a medical practitioner such as <a href="http://floydbentley1025.bravejournal.com/entry/79475">Dr. Spyros Panos</a>, such comment motivates him to continue providing his patients with top-notch health care. <br />

“We just wanted you to know how much it means to us to have such a wonderful, caring doctor like your husband,” Taylor adds.<br />
<br />
<br />
Maria Augusta knows that Taylor’s compliment is just one of a bunch. Dr. Panos actually gets more of it every day. <br />
<br />
<br />
Maybe what separates Dr. Panos from the others are not mere talent and experience (which he, too, has a lot in store), but on what most patients generally call as “kindness, concern, and personal care.” Indeed, that sounds more like Marcus Welby straight out from the screen. But no, it’s always Dr. Panos, minus the script; just Dr. Care with his medical bulletin. <br />

Notwithstanding his impressive medical skills and experience, Dr. Panos’ caring dispositions during treatment is becoming a byword of medical benevolence. Although that doesn’t totally eclipse Dr. Panos’ orthopedic expertise, it is easy to assume that it now equally defines his prominent professional practice in New York. <br />
<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
Dr. Panos continues to receive well-meaning accolades and compliments from his patients. In a letter to <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/1999/06/06/style/maria-freitas-and-spyros-panos.html">Dr. Spyros Panos</a>, Oliver D. Patterson, a former patient from the town of East Fishkill in New York, shared that he appreciated the surgeon’s gesture of openly telling him about his condition and options. That, he says, made him feel respected. <br />
<br />
<br/><br />
<table style="width:auto;"><tr><td><a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/dNn1fJ8Ago7YBEkrB5pPANMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlrkJiTRtgq7T_ZVNa7OG_uoh4SN3tl0mmN7ruzHJydSV0kZNcAZbUcxRrTrUoiyaLRRO5VD7_zWlozvYVQmELflWia75cUDH_AxXupjVM9tQYhcML5Vf69g9x6HAB6sZSVkkSpVgAikk/s800/panos%2520knee.jpg" height="300" width="200" /></a></td></tr><tr><td style="font-family:arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; text-align:right">From <a href=" https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/dNn1fJ8Ago7YBEkrB5pPANMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=embedwebsite">Image credit: Fitness.com</a></td></tr></table><br/><br />
<br />
Patterson, whose left ACL and meniscus in his right knee were treated by Dr. Panos, also expressed his admiration to what he describes as “the only doctor we know who personally calls each patient after surgery.” <br />
<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
“We have great confidence in your surgical ability. How you interact with patients is absolutely fantastic,” he adds.<br />
<br />
<br/><br />
<br />
While medical treatment generally connotes medical care, doctors are rarely expected to personally connect with their patients. But most patients, obviously, prefer doctors who talk about their pains and healing. In a big way, that’s the reason for Dr. Panos’ success. Beyond his professional demeanor, he displays a character of a doctor capable of showing genuine concern to complete strangers. In some respect, that’s a positive point for discernment.<br />

What happens to an athlete when sports activities suddenly stop due to an injury? Orthopedics like <a href="http://floydbentley1025.bravejournal.com/entry/79475">Dr. Spyros Panos</a> would agree that an athlete would feel a chain of overwhelming losses. While the athlete struggles with the effects of those losses, there will be rough times, especially when the injury is significant enough to keep him or her off the action for a long time, or worse, permanently. Here are some ways on how athletes can mentally teach themselves to heal:<br />
<br />
1. Burying emotional pain is unhelpful. Feelings of hurt have to be set free.<br />
<br />
2. Allowing oneself to deal with the situation on hand is important than just dealing with “what could have beens.”<br />
<br />
3. No matter how hard-hitting the situation may be, having a positive attitude in moving forward helps. Attitude can reduce the emotional stress and helps speed up the healing process.<br />
<br />
4. A support system is crucial in healing. The athlete’s family, teammates, or other support groups can intercede.<br />
<br />
5. When things don’t go back to the way an athlete hopes them to be, he or she has to think of ways on how to reposition his or her sports skills and knowledge into other areas of life outside sports.

Readers are also educated about the proper administration of sports injury treatment.</i><br />
<br />
Injuries are all too common in any sport. Because most sports involve physical contact, athletes’ damaging a ligament or bone becomes more likely. Thus, they should have proper knowledge of first-aid treatment for most sports injuries, such as soft tissue injuries.<br />

<link></link>Elizabeth Quinn of About.com Guide assigns an acronym to remember for the primary treatment of soft tissue injuries – P.R.I.C.E.<br />
<br />
<b>P – rotection</b>. When an athlete gets hurt, he or she should immediately stop any movement or activity. This will help protect body areas that may have been damaged by the impact.<br />
<br />
<b>R – est</b>. Resting can give damaged tissues adequate time to heal.<br />

<b>I – ce</b>. In order to manage pain and inflammation, Quinn advises intermittent icing 24 to 48 hours after a soft tissue injury occurs. In icing, it is advised that the person assisting the patient be careful in not putting the ice directly on the skin or leave it on too long, as this may cause frostbite. Using a thin towel to wrap in the ice would be an excellent protection.<br />
<br />
<b>C – ompression</b>. To keep swelling to a minimum, the injured body part should be wrapped with an elastic bandage.<br />

1. At 6’ 1 and 225 pounds, <b>Bo Jackson</b> became one of the most powerful and feared athletes during the height of his career.

<br />
He played professional football for the Oakland Raiders and pro baseball for the Kansas City Royals until a hip joint injury, which subsequently ended his football career. This happened in 1991 while he was tackled during a Raiders’ playoff victory over Cincinnati Bengals. The injury deteriorated, even after treatments, resulting to the condition called avascular necrosis, prompting his physicians to do hip replacement.<br />

2. During a 2003 Fiesta Bowl, <b>Willis McGahee</b>, the running back for the Miami Hurricanes was dashing in a game at the Ohio State’s linebacking core, when an opponent’s forearm hit his knee. McGahee’s body continued to sprint but his knees remained on the ground, tearing three of his ligaments. Despite this gruesome injury, he still excelled in the NFL and is considered one of the league’s better backs in spite the injury.<br />

People afflicted with severe pain and numbness in the hip area are prime candidates for availing of a hip replacement procedure. A THA procedure involves removing the damaged cartilage of the joint and replacing it with an artificial joint prosthesis. Common hip problems requiring a total replacement procedure include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, post traumatic arthritis, vascular necrosis, and childhood hip diseases. By undergoing this procedure, patients no longer have to endure using mobility aids such as canes, crutches, or walkers.<br />

The most common candidates for a total hip replacement procedure are individuals who experience continuing and increasing pain in the hip joint due to osteoarthritis. By replacing the damaged hip joint with either a plastic or metal joint to displace the diseased part, there will be a significant reduction in the level of pain when doing simple everyday tasks, while improving mobility and quality of life at the same time. By administering <a href="http://orthoinfo.aaos.org/topic.cfm?topic=a00404">minimally invasive procedures</a>, doctors can help patients recover faster and shorten their stay in the hospital. <br />

Having knee surgery can have beneficial impacts for people who find the pain in their knees intolerable, limiting daily activities and sleep from the pain. <a href="http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/kneereplacement.html">Knee replacement or knee arthroplasty</a> can significantly improve the quality of life of patients suffering from knee disorders by alleviating pain in this most critical of areas. In knee replacement procedures, surgeons will remove damaged bone and cartilage, and then position metal and plastic implants to restore the alignment and use of the knee. <br />

Fractures may not be as serious as other medical conditions, but it is all the same important to be treated immediately, especially when it happens to children. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Kids have different bone types compared to adults. They have what is called growth plate that is usually associated with fractures. The growth plate is the part of the bone that grows actively until their skeletal system reaches maturity. <br />
<br />

According to experts, the growth plate is usually the one broken and not the actual bone in cases of children’s fracture. Thus, immediate treatment on broken bones is necessary so as not to impede the growth of the bones.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Orthopedics like <a href="http://www.hipaaspace.com/Medical_Billing/Coding/National_Provider_Identifier/Codes/NPI_1497753149.aspx">Dr. Spyros Panos</a> recommend different treatment methods for fractures, depending on the severity of the condition. For mild fractures, non-surgical procedures that make use of splints or casts are used. When the bone is displaced, doctors usually recommend closed reduction and casting. Moreover, there is also open reduction, a procedure called for when a soft tissue is trapped between the bones. <br />
