Dr. William Joseph Bose MD's Expert Contributions
  • Pain Control After Orthopaedic Surgery

    Achievement of a good outcome after an orthopaedic procedure such as knee, hip or shoulder replacement, fracture repair, rotator cuff repair, or hip arthroscopy requires that the extremity moves immediately after surgery.  We call this “early mobilization”.  But, when the patient has pain,...

  • Surgical Volume Matters

    Many, many factors come together to obtain an excellent outcome for the patient after orthopedic surgery. Patient expectations and attitudes, and medical diseases all play a role. However, the skill of the surgeon also plays a significant role. Research has shown time and time again that if a...

  • Why Exercise Matters to Your Brain

    This is a great article by Dr. Charvat, and I completely agree with it.Please read this important article!  It will improve the quality of your life!!Why Exercise Matters to your Brain Mylea Charvat, Ph.D.As a clinical psychologist and neuroscientist, I recently attended the world’s largest...

  • Can I wear high heels after ankle replacement?

    It would be best if you asked the surgeon who did or is going to do your ankle replacement that question. In my opinion, you should not, because it may put increased stress on the implant. Over time, the increased stress may cause the implant to come loose, and that would be bad. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Is it normal to hear a sprained knee crack a bit?

    Sometimes a "sprained" knee will involve tearing of some of the fibers of a ligament. If this is what you felt, it should heal. However, sometimes patients feel a "pop" and that is a torn ligament or meniscus. If your knee doesn't heal after 2-3 weeks of rest, ice and ibuprofen 600 mg with each meal, then see an orthopedic surgeon. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • How do you strengthen your elbow ligaments?

    Ligaments cannot be practically strengthened, only the muscles around the joint can be. Do biceps and triceps strengthening as well as wrist curls and extensions. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Urge to crack my elbows?

    It is an inflamed tendon snapping over a bony prominence. Try not to crack the elbow because you are keeping it inflamed. Try taking an anti-inflammatory such as advil, 3 tablets 3 times a day. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Shoulder pain?

    You are repetitively re-straining your biceps. It could take 6 months to heal in that circumstance. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Do neck braces help with neck pain?

    They only work for acute episodes of pain, not chronic pain. For example, if you wake up with a "crick in your neck," then it's okay to use a brace for 2-3 days. Braces work by limiting motion. However, if you use it too long, the muscles in the neck will become dependent on the brace and they will weaken. For chronic neck pain, a traction device used for 30 minutes 2-3 times a day is more effective. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • How many hours does elbow surgery take?

    1-2 hours Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Index finger pain?

    It's probably just inflammation of the joint at the base of the finger or even inflammation of the nearby tendon. Ibuprofen 600mg 3 times a day with food will help. If you can't take that, then avoid all activities that cause the finger pain. It will probably take several weeks to go away. If it's still there in May, see an orthopedic specialist. An injection or cortisone by mouth should help. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Thumb injury?

    That is probably correct. As long as there is no pain, you're fine. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Abdomen pain?

    Your symptoms are very general and could be almost anything. From a musculoskeletal standpoint, it could be your lower back, hip or trochanteric bursitis. However, things like appendicitis, diverticulitis, or other abdominal problems may be causing your pain. It's probably best to have your doctor sort all of this out. I would only be guessing without more information. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Can a broken big toe that happened 35 years ago cause problems years later like varicose veins?

    Your CAD and diabetes are more likely the cause of your varicose veins. A big toe fracture should not be related. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Horrible pain in lower back thigh?

    If the pain is temporary and is relieved by stretching or ibuprofen, then it is muscular in nature, and nothing to worry about. However, If your pain persists, then it might be something worse, so see an orthopedic surgeon. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Why do I have pain in my left hip?

    IF it truly is your hip, it may be arthritis. Otherwise, it could be hip bursitis or pain coming from your lower back. See an Orthopedic Surgeon and get it sorted out!! Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • When should I see an orthopedist for shoulder pain?

    If rest (stopping whatever activity that causes pain) and Advil, 3 tablets with each meal, do not make your pain substantially better after a week, then see an orthopedic surgeon. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • What type of doctor treats arthritis?

    A medical doctor - Rheumatologist or a surgeon - Orthopedic surgeon both will treat arthritis. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Finger turning black or grey?

    It could be something bad, like the blood to your finger getting cut off. Go see your doctor now. Take a baby aspirin once a day, Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Sprained ankle?

    Hard to know what you are pointing out. If it is the black "hump" on the posterior talus, then yes, that is normal. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • What is the best exercise if you have bad knees?

    Non weight bearing exercise is best. Swimming is best followed by bicycling or elliptical machines. Avoid squats or deep knee bends. Walking on level ground is good, if your knees can tolerate it. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • How should I sleep after lumbar surgery?

    On your back or side. However, make sure you ask your surgeon, because there may be some detail about the surgery that I am not aware of. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE

  • Can kyphosis be corrected in adults?

    Yes, it can, but caution! It requires a large surgery. Short of surgery, no brace or medication will correct the kyphosis. Hope it helps!! Dr. Bose READ MORE
