Treatment for Peripheral Artery Disease & Osteoarthritis of the Knee Near Carlsbad

Dealing with conditions like osteoarthritis of the knee and peripheral artery disease (PAD) can severely impact your quality of life, especially as these conditions progress with age. In Carlsbad, a city celebrated for its high quality of life and wellness focus, there is a significant demand for effective, non-invasive treatments. At AVA Vascular, we provide minimally invasive procedures that help you maintain your health and enjoy your activities without extensive surgeries.

Osteoarthritis of the knee, often known as “wear and tear” arthritis, is typically managed with medications, cortisone injections, and physical therapy, or with knee replacement surgery as a last resort. For those seeking alternatives to surgery, genicular artery embolization (GAE) is a promising option. This technique reduces inflammation by blocking blood flow to the knee’s synovium, significantly improving mobility.
