    Why Do My Feet Hurt?

    This episode of the OrthoInfo Podcast takes a deep dive into the complexities of foot and ankle pain, covering everything from plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinitis, to fractures, to congenital and degenerative conditions. Arianna Gianakos, DO, and Kamran Hamid, MD, MPH, FAAOS, both board-certified orthopedic surgeons, discuss the factors that contribute to foot pain and dysfunction — including improper footwear, overuse, and sports participation — and offer advice to help avoid serious foot problems. Drs. Gianakos and Hamid also explain when to seek professional help for foot issues, including red-flag symptoms that require urgent care, and the difference between foot and ankle surgeons and podiatrists. They offer advice about how to navigate health information on the Internet and why it’s important for patients to do their research rather than relying solely on AI summaries for answers. And they highlight some of the exciting advances in foot and ankle surgery that are helping more patients get back on their feet. Host: Arianna Gianakos, DO Guest: Kamran Hamid, MD, MPH, FAAOS

    Hip Replacement Surgery: What Can I Expect?

    This episode explores the essentials of hip replacement surgery, providing patients with a clear understanding of what to expect before, during, and after the procedure. Mary K. Mulcahey, MD, FAAOS, Editor-in-Chief of OrthoInfo, is joined by Neil Sheth, MD, FAAOS, Chief of Orthopedic Surgery at Pennsylvania Hospital. Together, they answer frequently asked questions about hip replacement: who is an appropriate candidate, how technology and materials have advanced, presurgical preparation, what the surgery entails, how long it takes, and what patients can expect in terms of recovery, rehabilitation and return to activity. The discussion touches on important considerations such as post-surgery pain management (including opioids), potential complications, metal allergies, and implant failure. Dr. Sheth also talks about when to see a doctor for hip pain and where to start, given that there are different types of doctors who treat hip pain and patients may not know who to see initially. He explains what an Adult Reconstruction surgeon is and clarifies which symptoms and conditions he and his colleagues do and do not address. Host: Mary K.

The trio covers what biologics truly are, dispelling misconceptions about “stem cells” and highlighting the importance of evidence-based approaches over marketing hype.

    When Should I See an Orthopaedic Surgeon?

    This episode serves as an introduction to the new OrthoInfo podcast series, dedicated to answering questions about bone and joint health. Hosts Shariff K. Bishai, DO, FAAOS, a sports and shoulder surgeon in Detroit, and Mary K. Mulcahey, MD, FAAOS, sports surgeon and Editor-in-Chief of OrthoInfo, delve into what an orthopaedic surgeon does and when patients should see an orthopaedic surgeon for musculoskeletal issues. The discussion delves into what it means to be an orthopedic surgeon — including the significance of board certification, fellowship training, and being a member of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS). Drs. Bishai and Mulcahey help listeners understand the difference between orthopaedic surgeons and other specialists who treat the same conditions, such as podiatrists, plastic surgeons, and neurologists. And they explain the difference between general orthopaedic surgeons and subspecialists. The conversation emphasizes the importance of seeking care from properly trained specialists. It encourages patients to be self-advocates, to ask questions or even seek second opinions if they don’t feel comfortable with both their care plan and their doctor. Drs. Bishai and Mulcahey also reflect on the value of the physician–patient relationship, underscoring the collaborative and ongoing nature of orthopedic care, including the critical role of physical therapy. They talk about what being an orthopaedic surgeon means and why caring for patients is a 24/7 job for them. Co-hosts: Shariff K. Bishai, DO, FAAOS, and Mary K. Mulcahey, MD, FAAOS
