Dr. Henderson conducts an in-depth clinical exam when you seek help for your sports injury. He aims to find the root cause of your injury so he can help you recover quickly and safely.
He first asks detailed questions about your injury, including how it happened, your symptoms, and any activities that worsen or lessen your pain. Dr. Henderson also reviews your usual exercise or workout routine and conducts a physical exam and X-rays to formulate a diagnosis.
In some cases, he may request additional imaging, such as an MRI or CT scan, to confirm a diagnosis and determine if surgical intervention is necessary.
Though he prefers taking a nonsurgical route to heal sports injuries, when necessary, he may recommend surgery to repair damage your body can’t heal on its own. The surgery you need depends on the type and location of the injury.
To perform surgery, Dr. Henderson uses minimally invasive techniques. For example, he uses arthroscopy for reconstruction of an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear or a mini incision for a torn rotator cuff.
