Getting back to the best version of you is always the goal of our friends at GBMC and with many friends going through hip and knee replacements, we reached to Dr. Ronald Delanois to get Nestor hip to the facts about knee replacements and better joint health as we age. The post Dr. Ronald Delanois of GBMC gives Nestor the hip facts about knee replacements and joint health first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.
Joints play a critical role in how we move, stay active, and maintain independence—but joint pain and arthritis can make everyday activities challenging. In this episode of Health Matters, host Courtney Allison speaks with Dr. Nana Sarpong, an orthopedic surgeon at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia, about how joints function and what happens when cartilage wears down. Dr. Sarpong explains the difference between mechanical osteoarthritis and inflammatory forms of arthritis like rheumatoid arthritis, including how each impacts joint movement, pain, and stiffness. The conversation covers conservative treatment strategies such as anti-inflammatory medications, physical therapy, bracing, and injections—along with when surgery becomes the right option. Dr. Sarpong also explains how modern joint replacement surgery works, how long implants now last, and what recovery looks like. Dr. Sarpong debunks common myths, including whether cracking your knuckles is harmful, if weather really affects joint pain, and the idea that people with arthritis should avoid movement. His key message: motion really is lotion—and staying active is essential for protecting your joints and preserving long-term mobility. Chapters 00:00 – What Are Joints and How Do They Work? An overview of joint anatomy, function, and why joints are essential to movement 04:30 – Arthritis and Joint Conditions The difference between osteoarthritis and inflammatory arthritis, causes of joint pain and stiffness 08:45 – Treating Joint Pain and Arthritis Conservative care, physical therapy, injections, and when surgery becomes the right option 12:00 – Protecting Your Joints and Busting Myths Exercise, weight management, common misconceptions, and the importance of staying active Key Topics Covered How joints function in the body Osteoarthritis vs. rheumatoid and inflammatory arthritis Causes of joint pain, stiffness, and cartilage loss Physical therapy and non-surgical treatments Joint replacement surgery and recovery Exercise recommendations for joint health Weight loss and joint load reduction Myths about cracking joints and weather-related pain Takeaway Message Joint pain doesn't mean you should stop moving. Staying active, strengthening the muscles around your joints, and managing weight can help protect joint function and slow arthritis progression. When conservative treatments stop working, modern joint replacement surgery offers safe, durable solutions that can restore mobility and independence for decades. Doctor Bio Nana Sarpong, MD, MBA, is a fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon specializing in hip and knee reconstruction. He is skilled in minimally invasive techniques, including partial knee reconstruction, primary hip replacement (both direct anterior and mini-posterior hip approaches), knee replacement, hip resurfacing, and complex primary and revision hip and knee replacement after failed surgeries. His practice leverages advanced technologies, including computer-assisted navigation and robotics, and offers the latest evidence-based surgical and nonsurgical treatment options. Based on a rigorous process to identify healthcare providers with a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement, Super Doctors named Dr. Sarpong one of New York's Rising Stars. Dr. Sarpong was raised in New York City and attended Brandeis University, in Massachusetts, on the Posse Foundation Leadership and Merit scholarship, graduating magna cum laude. He received his MD/MBA degree from Tufts University School of Medicine, where he was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Society and received the Norman S. Stearns MD/MBA Excellence in Leadership Award. Dr. Sarpong completed his orthopedic surgery residency at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center, where he was elected as executive chief resident in his final year. As a chief resident, he was the recipient of the Nas Eftekhar award for excellence in adult reconstruction and the chief resident teacher of the year award. He completed the prestigious adult reconstruction and joint replacement surgery fellowship at the Hospital for Special Surgery and NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, where he received specialized training in navigation and computer-assisted joint replacement and complex and revision reconstruction.

Preventing Injury, Reframing Pain, and Using Physical Therapy to Avoid Unnecessary Surgery: Dr. Tom Walters is a board-certified orthopedic physical therapist, founder of Rehab Science, and author of “Rehab Science: How to Overcome Pain and Heal From Injury,” an illustrated, body-region guide to common orthopedic problems and self-managed therapeutic exercises. Walters emphasizes using PT-style mobility and resistance training preventively to increase tissue capacity, manage load, and avoid overuse injuries, while warning against “no pain, no gain” and excessive volume or weight. He discusses “movement literacy,” hip and glute stabilizers, and how weakness can drive knee and back problems. Dr. Hoffman shares his own hip injury and recovery with targeted strengthening, illustrating that imaging findings often don't dictate function. Walters explains the biopsychosocial model of pain, graded exposure, the limits of RICE and ultrasound, and roles for manual therapy, taping, TENS, shockwave, acupuncture/dry needling, and PRP. They advocate prehab/rehab around surgery and note PT training and career prospects.
Rethinking Inflammation: How ‘Rest And Ice' Is Sabotaging Your Healing Everything you know about inflammation may be wrong. While standard protocols like rest and icing aim to suppress inflammation, new research suggests that an intense, short-term inflammatory response is actually essential for the body's natural healing process. Our expert explains how to rethink our relationship with inflammation and leverage our own biological systems to heal joints and nerves.

Shannon Brinias and Dr. Shane Barton of Willis Knighton Orthopedics & Sports Medicine talked about the importance of joint health, and the advancements and considerations when surgery becomes the only option.
Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses joint inflammation—its symptoms (swelling, pain, redness, warmth, morning stiffness, reduced range of motion) and why it is usually a sign of an underlying condition rather than a disease itself. She reviews common causes including osteoarthritis (cartilage wear and tear), rheumatoid arthritis (autoimmune synovium attack with prolonged morning stiffness and fatigue), gout (uric acid crystals, often in the big toe), psoriatic arthritis, injuries, autoimmune diseases (e.g., lupus, ankylosing spondylitis, Sjogren's), infections such as septic arthritis requiring urgent care, and surrounding-tissue problems like tendonitis and bursitis. Lifestyle factors that worsen inflammation include excess weight, poor diet (including unaddressed food allergies; avoiding nightshades is suggested), insulin resistance contributing to gout, lack of exercise, smoking, and stress. Management strategies include rest, bracing, ice vs. heat, OTC anti-inflammatories, gentle low-impact exercise, anti-inflammatory foods, weight loss, treating root causes, and supplements such as glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, bromelain, turmeric, Boswellia, and quercetin.
Joint pain and limited mobility are often treated as inevitable parts of aging — but what if there's a fundamentally different way to think about joint health?In this episode of The Mind–Gut Conversation, Dr. Mayer sits down with Jeff Bailey, founder of Avita Yoga and author of the bestselling book Mobility for Life, to explore a revolutionary approach to restoring joint health through yoga. Unlike conventional methods that emphasize stretching and flexibility, Jeff's practice focuses on compression, fascial reorganization, and the body's natural capacity for healing.They discuss why protecting your joints may actually accelerate their decline, how injuries can become doorways to deeper understanding, and the critical connection between mind and body in the healing process. Jeff also shares his personal journey — from assisting his veterinarian father as a child to recovering from a severe ski injury at age 50 — and how these experiences shaped his understanding of what joints actually need to thrive.This episode offers a practical, evidence-based perspective on joint health, chronic pain, and how to maintain mobility and independence throughout life.Topics discussed include:Why joints need compression, not stretchingThe role of fascia in structural healthThe mind-body connection in healingReframing injury as opportunityPractical approaches to maintaining lifelong mobilityThis is a grounded, practical conversation for anyone dealing with joint pain, arthritis, or interested in maintaining lifelong mobility.

Speaking both as a veterinarian and a pet parent, Dr. Christine, discusses the science of how UC-II works with the immune system, how it supports mobility and comfort as with her own dog, Pepsi, and where it fits within a multimodal joint care plan.If you're a pet parent looking for proactive support—or a veterinary professional exploring new tools for mobility management—this episode delivers practical insight backed by science.

Welcome to Part 1 of our special bone health mini-series, featuring Dr. Jocelyn Wittstein, Dr. Jessica Shepherd, personal trainer Debra Atkinson, and PhD researcher Dr. Darren Candow. In this episode, we discuss the impact of contraceptive use on bone health, especially in young women, and explore how underfueling and relative energy deficiency can contribute to serious bone health issues early in life. We highlight the strong connection between thyroid health and bone health, and clarify how frequently, how much, and how intensely we should strength train to best support our bones. We examine the potential long-term benefits of vibration plates, address concerns with current osteoporosis screening guidelines, and explain why assessing women's bone health earlier is crucial. Finally, we review the latest research on creatine monohydrate and its promising impact on bone health. I sincerely hope you enjoy Part 1 of this mini-series, which sets the stage for understanding lifelong bone health. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How underfueling, overtraining, and oral contraceptives can limit bone development The value of strength training and impact-based exercise for preserving bone density, supporting metabolic health, and reducing fracture risk How even a few minutes of impact exercise per day can stimulate bone strength How vibration plates can complement strength and impact training Why declining estrogen during perimenopause and menopause increases the risk of osteoporosis and fractures as women age The benefits of weight training, resistance exercises, Pilates, and water aerobics for improving bone density and maintaining muscle strength How creatine supplementation combined with resistance training or structured exercise can help preserve bone strength in postmenopausal women How creatine alone, without physical activity, shows no meaningful benefit Connect with Cynthia Thurlow Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Join other like-minded women in a supportive, nurturing community: The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow Cynthia's Menopause Gut Book is on presale now!

Subscribe to Forever Strong Insider: https://foreverstrong.supercast.comIf you are only focusing on building muscle, you are missing half the equation for long-term mobility. In this mashup episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon brings together top orthopedic experts to discuss the critical importance of joint and tendon health.While muscle develops relatively quickly, your tendons and ligaments can take 6 to 9 months to fully adapt to a new training stimulus. This gap is where most injuries happen. We dive deep into the biological mechanics of tendons, the"athletic accommodation timeline," and why you must progressively overload your connective tissue—not just your muscle bellies.You will learn:The Menopause Connection: Why women face a 30% higher risk of arthritis and rapid bone loss after age 50, and the role of estrogen in joint inflammation.Osteoporosis Prevention: Why high-impact "flight" exercises (jumping) are more effective for bone density than traditional lifting alone.The Frozen Shoulder Mystery: How to identify the warning signs and why this condition is often linked to hormonal shifts rather than trauma.Injury Recovery & Prehab: The truth about PRP, needle tenotomy, and the "anti-fragility" mindset needed to build a resilient body.The History of Muscle: How ancient Greek views of "pneuma" and the "gift of strength" shaped our modern misunderstanding of movement.Stop training until you break.

In this episode of Toni Unleashed, Toni Shelaske sits down with Rebecca Rose, founder of InClover, to break down what truly supports joint health in dogs and cats. Rebecca shares the science behind mobility supplements, explains why ingredients like glucosamine aren't always enough on their own, and highlights the importance of targeting the entire joint structure—not just the cartilage. They discuss common mobility issues, early signs pet parents shouldn't ignore, and how inflammation and gut health play a bigger role in joint comfort than most people realize. Rebecca also explains what makes InClover's formulations unique, from clinically tested ingredients to bioavailable nutrient combinations designed to deliver real, measurable results. The conversation gives pet parents a clearer understanding of what to look for in a joint supplement, how to support pets as they age, and why starting early can make all the difference. https://inclover.com/

Not Just Fluff: Pet wellness from the pros at Banfield Pet Hospital
When Hannah's senior cat was diagnosed with arthritis, she learned firsthand how subtle the signs can be and how much life can improve with the right care. In this episode of Not Just Fluff, Hannah talks with Dr. Erica Pounds, Veterinary and Senior Program Manager of Veterinary Development with the Veterinary Affairs Team at Banfield Pet Hospital. Together they share what arthritis looks like in both cats and dogs, the role weight and genetics can play, and the many treatment options available. If you've ever wondered whether your animal's slowing down is “just age” or something more, this conversation will help you feel more empowered and prepared to support their health at every stage of life.Follow us on social media!Facebook: Banfield Pet HospitalInstagram: @banfieldpethospitalDisclaimer: The information provided in this podcast is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional veterinary advice.

Did you happen to notice that Tylenol recently launched a dietary supplement product range designed to promote joint comfort and mobility? When the best-selling pain relief brand in the U.S. market launches a drug-free product range…it not only speaks volumes about shifting consumer attitudes from treatment to prevention, but also about the increasing importance of supplements for the pharmaceutical industry. And maybe unsurprisingly to my fellow industry nerds, but this new product launch further strengthens the pharma-nutra convergence trend. In fact, pharmaceutical companies have been increasingly tapping into the preventive segment…seeking new revenue opportunities to mitigate against numerous factors hampering industry profits. Therefore, even during periods of relatively strong demand for OTC drugs, supplements still present an important opportunity to expand the product offering…thus we expect this trend to continue and likely permanently reshape the nutraceutical industry.

Want to be a guest or know someone would be a great fit? I am looking for military vets, active duty, military brats, veteran service orgs or anyone in the fitness industryThink five pounds is no big deal? Your knees might disagree. We unpack the surprising biomechanics behind everyday movement and reveal how small changes in body weight multiply into big forces on your joints. With clear numbers, relatable examples, and a few “wait, what?” moments, Kat Cortado breaks down the four-to-one pressure rule—how each extra pound can add roughly four pounds of load to your knees with every step—and why that adds up to tens of thousands of pounds across a single mile.We explore why stress on joints often rises nonlinearly as weight increases, especially when age-related cartilage thinning narrows your margin for error. Kat shares a candid story about navigating knee changes and demystifies how cartilage cushions bone, what happens when it wears down, and why stiffness often appears before obvious pain. You'll hear how even modest weight loss can reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and dramatically cut the risk of knee osteoarthritis, referencing research that found a near 50% risk reduction with a 10-pound loss for people with overweight.Then we get practical. Learn how low-impact activities like walking, swimming, and cycling strengthen the muscles that protect your knees and hips. Understand the kinetic chain—from foot and ankle mechanics to hip control—and how better alignment distributes forces more evenly. We also map out simple nutrition shifts that support joint comfort: anti-inflammatory foods, adequate protein, and hydration that keeps cartilage gliding.

Ready to finally understand what “mobility” really means? In this episode of “Random Fit,” hosts, and NASM Master Instructor Instructors, Wendy Batts, and Ken Miller, dive deep into a topic everyone's talking about—but few truly get: mobility and why it truly matters. Whether you're feeling stiff from sitting at your desk, striving for better athletic performance, or just want to move easier every day, this discussion is packed with eye-opening, actionable advice! Discover the crucial difference between mobility and flexibility—spoiler alert: they're not the same thing! — and why just stretching might be doing your body more harm than good. Ever wondered why you feel tight even when you stretch every day? Or why some people look ultra-flexible but still get injured? Wendy and Ken break down the science behind “relative flexibility,” compensation patterns, and why your body often “steals” movement from the wrong areas (and what to do about it). Plus, get pro tips on assessments, real-world strategies to build lasting mobility, and the surprising roles hydration and strength play in keeping you pain-free. Learn the concept of “naive flexibility” and why controlling your range of motion is the hidden key to long-term health. Curious yet? Whether you're a fitness fanatic, weekend warrior, or just tired of that annoying back pain, this episode is your blueprint for better movement. Listen now and unlock the secrets to getting—and keeping—the mobility you deserve!
