New Knee Pain Treatment Now Available at Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine

Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine is now offering a new treatment option for knee pain, giving patients access to advanced care designed to reduce discomfort, improve mobility, and support long-term joint health. The service may benefit individuals struggling with sports injuries, arthritis, or everyday knee strain, helping them explore personalized solutions under expert orthopedic guidance without relying solely on traditional pain management approaches for lasting comfort, confidence, and better movement in daily routines again.

A new joint-preserving knee pain treatment is now available at Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine, offering hope to active patients who are not yet ready for a total knee replacement.

Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine, serving the Greater Chicagoland Area, has successfully completed its sixth MISHA Knee System implantation. The practice, led by Dr. Hythem Shadid, continues to expand access to advanced orthopedic solutions for patients struggling with medial knee osteoarthritis.

The latest procedure was performed by Dr. Nolan Horner, orthopedic surgeon at Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine. The achievement marks another important step in bringing the MISHA Knee System to patients seeking relief from chronic knee pain while preserving their natural joint structure.

Knee osteoarthritis affects more than 15 million Americans, often making everyday activities such as walking, climbing stairs, exercising, and standing for long periods painful and difficult. Many patients try non-surgical treatments such as medications, injections, and physical therapy, but these options may not always provide lasting relief.

For some patients, a total knee replacement may feel too aggressive or too early. Others may want to stay active while delaying major surgery for as long as possible. This creates a treatment gap for people who continue to live with pain but are not ready for full joint replacement.

The MISHA Knee System is designed to help bridge that gap. It works like a shock absorber for the knee, reducing the force placed on the painful part of the joint during movement. By easing pressure across the affected area, the system may help reduce pain, improve function, and allow patients to return to daily activities with greater comfort.

Unlike knee replacement surgery, the MISHA implant is focused on joint preservation. It helps support the knee while keeping the patient’s natural anatomy intact, making it an important option for carefully selected patients with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis.

According to Dr. Nolan Horner, the MISHA implant has expanded treatment possibilities for patients who want to avoid or delay knee replacement surgery. He noted that the system has shown encouraging outcomes in terms of pain relief, function, and patient satisfaction.

Clinical data associated with the MISHA Knee System highlights key benefits such as significant pain relief, rapid recovery, and no major activity restrictions for appropriate patients. The treatment option is also available to eligible patients, including those covered by Medicare.

Under the leadership of Dr. Hythem Shadid, Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine continues to focus on minimally invasive orthopedic care, sports injury treatment, and advanced solutions for joint pain. The practice’s joint preservation program, led by Dr. Nolan Horner, brings modern technologies like the MISHA Knee System to patients across the Chicago metropolitan area.

For patients who are ready to move beyond knee pain but are not yet ready for a total knee replacement, the MISHA Knee System offers a promising new path forward.
