KNEE PAIN · MERRICK, NY
Stairs. Walks. Everyday life.
Let’s talk about your knee.
A focused conversation about the discomfort that keeps you from moving the way you want.
UNDERSTANDING THE CONCERN
Which movements have changed?
The knee includes bones, cartilage, ligaments and tendons. Symptoms can follow an injury or develop with repeated activity. Swelling, stiffness or difficulty moving the knee can provide important clues, but they do not establish a diagnosis on their own.
Tell us whether symptoms affect stairs, walking, getting out of a chair or exercise. Discuss injuries, swelling and any prior diagnosis. Bring existing reports to help the conversation.
WHAT YOU MAY NOTICE
The details matter.
Tell us what you feel.
Use these examples to describe your concern. Similar symptoms can have different causes; this list is not a diagnosis.
- Pain or tenderness around the knee
- Swelling or stiffness
- Difficulty with stairs or walking
- Catching, giving way or limited movement
YOUR CARE AT CLOUD 9
Understand your options.
Choose your next step.
SoftWave may be considered for selected knee-related musculoskeletal concerns after evaluation. Dr. Veltre will explain whether the approach fits your case, or whether further assessment is a better next step. A serious new injury is different from a routine chronic-pain visit.
Ask about suitability, alternatives, cost and the recommendation for future visits. Our team will explain what is included so you can make an informed decision.

QUESTIONS ABOUT KNEE PAIN
A little more
clarity.
Can I book if I already have a diagnosis?
Yes. Bring your diagnosis, imaging reports and information about previous treatment so Dr. Veltre can review the situation.
Is SoftWave suitable for every knee injury?
No. Suitability depends on the concern and examination. A fracture, major ligament injury or another problem may require different care.
What if I cannot move or bear weight on the knee after an injury?
Arrange prompt medical assessment for a significant new injury, severe pain or inability to move the knee.
