- Joel Embiid of the NBA Philadelphia 76ers has been dealing with another knee injury and was recently spotted wearing a unique style knee brace. There is some speculation this brace could mean he has arthritis, so in this video i'll explain how this brace works and why his history of previous injuries could raise the possibility of more damage in the knee!

This is a revision of the initially posted video in case you saw it earlier. Essentially it was pointed out to me by a viewer (please comment so i can credit you!) that i was misunderstanding the brace in terms of which side it was trying to unload. This does actually change things and so I felt it was necessary to correct the video to make sure you all have the right info!! thanks!
That was me! Thanks for acknowledging my comment!
Yes!! Thanks so much! I'll be the first to admit when I messed something up so thank you for the help and being kind about my mistake
@bojo perez no he's doing right. He's growing good and keeping us interested without oversaturation. Also there are different injuries all the time. By the time he revisits the same injury on a different player it'll be another fresh audience.
I have a huuuuge list of topics!!
I try to take a different approach with each similar one too
Yo props to you for putting your hand up, saying you don't know everything and could be wrong
Thank you so much for posting as much content to stay current with what’s going on. Respect Doc 🤙
No cap bro, ur the 🐐 idk any doctor that would take time outta his day to do this.
Bethanie Mattek-Sands
knee injury at Wimbledon in 2017?
As far as I remember the initial plan was to repair the menismus in Embiid´s knee. When they opened him they decided against that because the tear was really small. They said the definitely would have done the repair because they wanted to preserve his long term health and the surgery was in the off season anyway.
My question now is: Don´t you think they would have done a repair when the resection would lead this early to arthritis? Just from all the reporting it seems that the rear was SO minor that decided against a repair and because of that the risk of arthritis wouldn´t be that high. Of course you can´t foresee everything but as cautious the team was with him during that time, I think they 100 % would have done a repaif if there were any doubts with the size of the tear.
I hope you answer, really interesting channel,keep up the good work.
At the time the benefit of cleaning up the mensiscus outweighed long term risk of other issues. You can't really fault the docs for that decision. They know very well that taking out part of meniscus increases risk of arthritis but if the player can't even play without the surgery then it's worth it so they can play and make a living
Can you please do a video explaining Aaron Judge’s Oblique strain? - from a very depressed Yankee fan
Brian YOU ARE PROOOO !!🌞👍👍
Could you do a video on Aaron Judge’s oblique??
Can you do nurkic/paul georges snapped leg
Already did Nurkic
@@BrianSuttererMD ill definitely watch it
the nba gotta lower the amount of regular season games
DUDE!!! DOES PRP WORK OR NOT???
Do you think you could cover Shareef O'Neal's heart surgery?
Don't know enough about what they did '/
@@BrianSuttererMD should find out brotha keep it up 💯
Why does Russell Westbrook have strapping on his Finger?
Because it looked cool on Michael Jackson ^^
It sure as hell doesn't help his shooting so it's probably not to aid an injury healing or not causing as much pain. I could easily see it be a style choice more than a medical one.
YeeSoest bruh he was getting it put on in the middle of the game, watch the game sometimes bruh before you say “style shit”
TO HELP PAD HIS STATS
It happened at the last game of the season. Somebody hit his hand hard after he secured the rebound.
@@MeNoWorryYouNoWorry Thankyou
African Vibranium Juice.That's all he needs
That's actually kinda funny, since he's African, Cameroon. Pretty sure that he got too many of it. Sciences got the best of him.
Wakanda FOREVER
Lol
@@superduperjoi6800 I knew that one was coming. Lol
Maybe I’m just nerdier than the average sports fan but I can’t imagine that you won’t blow up soon! This stuff is so interesting and us sports fans always want to know as much as possible about player health. Great work man!
Thanks! Been growing at a.decent clip!
A good injury too cover would be Jay William's. Not too many people know the details of what happened but it completely ended his career and would be interesting
He got rich and then did what he wasn't supposed to be doing and got in a motorcycle crash, ruined his career but somehow still became a talking head. Not much else to see here besides a man who got away with a breach of contract.
Why not work for an NBA team?
My man found his niche lol
Can you do Blake Griffins knee injury?
I'm the kind of guy that skips intro and advertisement segments on UA-cam channels that have characteristic long ones. Yours is so short and and tiny, i couldn't even do it if I tried! That's just awesome!
Instant like and instant "good guy" points awarded!
Thanks! Try to keep it no more than 1 minute but even that seems long
Also: From being a soccer fan most of my life I can report that we see meniscus resection as usually "the beginning of the end" for soccer players. They run a lot more miles than basketball guys but don't leap as often....I guess that makes a difference though.
Can you do a prediction video of taco fall of what kind of injuries he will have if his body doesn't gain muscle?
76ers just beat Nets without Embiid! I think they're gonna be fine for now.
Till they meet the brick wall toronto
@@kilercrab3213 Yes! Agreed!
Kilercrab321 Unless Kyle Lowry lays an egg in the second round
If they reveal TJ Oshie's injury, that would be a good topic. Would be interesting to see some hockey videos. Those guys take a beating every night
It’s cool how you can tell all these things from pictures and videos
Doctor 24/7 You are a very hardworking doctor to do this.
Do a video about Jacob Degroms “Barking” Elbow
Whether he's gonna play again or not, it doesn't really matter, since they're gonna get swept by the Raptors in the next round, if they make it.
Lol or maybe they'll lose in 7 on the luckiest buzzer beater ever. The only team to take Toronto 7 games.
Bring back the tie! Just kidding, you’re fine. Thanks for the video. I have varus alignment, which caused a knee injury that ended my college distance-running career. 26 years later, running 20 miles a week, as opposed to 100, I’m fine.
The tie makes an intermittent guest appearance haha
I love your videos; the concept of explaining sports injuries with anatomy lessons and treatment is brilliant. One suggestion is for you to increase your use of anatomy props. When you mention meniscus tear, I think you should have some kind of knee anatomy prop to indicate exactly what the meniscus is, along with the other knee components. Same with any other mention of anatomy, like medial compartment, etc. I know I don't have a firm visualization of most anatomy terms, and good images are much more descriptive than mere talk. If your videos combine your strong knowledge, good lighting and timely subject matter with the best anatomy props on the internet, whether lots of plastic doctor-office props or video diagrams (or both), I think you can broaden your reach and have your subs go up faster. Anatomy students and patients will find you, in addition to us sports fans.
you should have shown his leg and brace , while you spoke, instead of your face
Love these vids mam
Doesn't really explain what other possibilities there are. Just that arthritis is the most common reason for that brace.
Too much speculation..could he bone bruise, cartilage defect, more meniscal damage just to name a few. Basically trying to get the point across that the brace isn't a 1:1 auto for arthritis but by far is most common use.
Thanks doc
I don’t think so,and I’m not being baised
Josh 3Arch nice unbiased conclusion, Dr. Josh 3Arch
Ryne Martinez welcome welcome
Makes me wonder.. I had a complete rupture of my ACL and I had my Meniscus Trimmed as well.. makes me wonder Am I gonna get Arthritis..
how are you now?
@@Enocmon 90% healed obviously my left knee will never be the same can't use so much pressure on it
@@ktsaabkato you cant run anymore? how old are you?
Good video doc
Will you do a video in the future on patella dislocations or recurrent patella dislocations? Livingston dislocated it in 2004 in his rookie year in practice and missed 39 games, Andrew Bynum in 2008 and Jazz guard Patrick Christopher in 2015. I would love to see that video.
Great video Brian. As a Sixers fan, every game, every grin, scares the hell out of me. We need him so badly and he knows that. He will play through pain. He doesn't understand or care about the effects. Maybe cause he's still young. The problem is that when he misses a couple of games to rest his knees, he gets out of shape so easily which is the problem for him cause he gains a couple lbs. He rather play injured and hurt himself than miss a game or two to rest. Lets hope for the best. Fingers crossed.
Great video! That's a weird looking brace. I wouldn't be surprised if he has arthritis.
What kind of question is that? The world already knows.
Why does it seem arthritis is so common in Athletes nowadays
Kevin de Bruyne injury pls
Brian > GOAT
Another great video Doc!
Wow love this!
The 76ers (and Joel Embiid himself) are describing the issue with his left knee as tendinitis. If that's the case, would it make any sense for Embiid to wear a brace like the one shown here? What function would it serve, if any? I've suffered from patellar tendinitis in the past and, from what I experienced (and what little I understand), I don't really see why this type of brace would be prescribed.
No, that brace wouldn't make any sense
If i had to take a shot every time he said “meniscus” id probably be dead by now
lmao, this comment is so underrated.
👍👍👍
Why do people use butt plugs?
this not the right channel for this question bruh
I thought they mentioned tendonitis last night.....sounds better than arthritis 🤔
Yea but that brace wouldn't have any benefit in tendinitis
@@BrianSuttererMD I completely agree, just don't think they want to come out and say that 🤐. This channel is awesome, appreciate the time/effort you put into these explanations!
My doctor told me to come back to see him if I had any “tendency to the recurvatum” what does that mean?
Hyper extension.
Thank you, that’s what I assumed👍
What is your work schedule like? Surely it is difficult finding time for these vids. Major probs regardless, just keep up with the quality content!
Depending on month between 40-60 hours a week. Can get a video done in one evening by now!
Y’all think Joel will be mvp in 5 years?
You called it he won last year and would’ve been this year too if he didn’t get hurt
Please Explain Navicular Injury that embiid had few years ago
Watch the vid I did on Bol Bol. Same thing !
