Surgeon Finds Solution to His Pain, Recommends Procedure to Patients

May 21, 2012 - PRLog -- Macomb, MI – Surgeons throughout the United States and in over 25 countries are speaking up about an innovative treatment option for talotarsal displacement offered by GraMedica^®, a global orthopedic medical device company.

Mark Jones, DPM, from Highland, Indiana recently shared his experience using the HyProCure^® EOTTS device to help many of his patients suffering from pain. “I’ve had patients with knee, hip and back pain come in who had no idea their foot was the primary cause. Worse, patients often seek treatment for these issues while the root of the problem remains ignored. It’s important to identify and correct the source of the issue,” stated Jones.

In the article written for HealthWise, the magazine of Methodist Hospitals, Dr. Jones explains his reasons for choosing HyProCure^®.  “The stent can be used effectively on patients as young as eight years old, through the geriatric population. Talotarsal dislocation will not resolve on its own, patients do not outgrow it.” “It’s an internal problem and often needs an internal solution,” says Jones.  

Partial talotarsal dislocation is a foot imbalance that throws both the foot and the entire body out of alignment. It affects people of all ages and can be the direct cause of many symptoms and secondary conditions, including overpronation, bunions, plantar fasciitis, knee pain, hip pain, back pain, and even problems in the neck and shoulders.

The HyProCure^® EOTTS device instantly stabilizes the hindfoot bones, stopping the continued trauma to the foot and body, and even possibly leading to the reversal of associated effects. HyProCure^® represents a real solution for patients suffering from this condition.

Dr. Jones not only recommends HyProCure^® to his own patients, but he himself has undergone the procedure.  “I can tell you firsthand, it made a world of difference for me!”  “My procedure was done six years ago, and after three months, I was able to return to distance running, playing tennis and basketball, and playing with my kids. When I recommend the procedure to patients, I think it’s valuable to them that I know what it feels like to go through. Not to mention, I’m a success story – if it worked for the doctor, maybe it’s right for you,” shared Jones.
