Digital X-ray is an imaging procedure that uses digital sensors in an image capture device instead of photographic film to take pictures of bones. Digital radiography can efficiently save, store, transfer, and enhance images taken of the target area of the body.

Benefits of digital X-rays over traditional film X-rays include the ability to enhance images. Larger, clearer, color-enhanced images can result in a more accurate diagnosis. In addition, current X-rays can be compared to previous X-rays, enabling doctors to identify small changes that may not be visible to the naked eye. You are also exposed to approximately 90% less radiation than traditional X-rays.

A closed reduction is a procedure to set (“reduce”) a broken bone without surgery. “Closed” means the fracture is not exposed surgically, but rather put back into the correct position by manipulation and the external stabilization of a cast or splint. This procedure may be indicated if the fracture has not pierced the skin, or to minimize soft tissue complications.

If you have a fracture that does not require surgery or another type of injury that requires immobilization, we will apply a splint or cast to support and protect injured bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and other tissues.

Injectable cortisone is a powerful anti-inflammatory medication, a synthetically produced steroid that lasts for a longer period of time than the cortisone your body naturally produces. It is injected directly into joints such as shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees, and ankles to decrease inflammation, which can subsequently decrease pain. Cortisone injections usually work within a few days, and the effects can last up to several weeks.

Dupuytren’s disease causes an abnormal thickening of the tissue located underneath the skin in the palm of the hand. As the tissue thickens, it can form knots under the skin that eventually form a thick cord that causes the fingers to bend in towards the palm of the hand. Severe cases can result in the loss of hand function. Until recently, the standard treatment for severe cases has been surgery, which most often involves a long recovery and physical therapy.

Xiaflex® is an injection of an enzyme called collagenase clostridium histolyticum that has proved highly effective in treating advanced Dupuytren's contracture. This enzyme relaxes and weakens the contracted cord, which allows it to be manipulated and broken. Following the injection and manipulation, bent fingers become straight and functional again. This office-based procedure is safe, relatively painless and is an excellent alternative to surgery.

Dr. Reznick can also perform minor surgical procedures in the office, such as aspiration (drainage) of cysts, joint aspiration to remove fluid from the space around a joint, drainage of blisters or abscesses caused by minor infections such as paronychia, and removal of superficial foreign bodies.

Instead of sending you to a lab somewhere else, which is inconvenient and time-consuming for you, we do our own blood draws right here in our own office and send them out to the lab that is affiliated with your insurance plan.
