Compartment Pressure Testing

Compartment Pressure Testing for Chronic Exertional Compartment Syndrome (CECS)

Chronic Exertional Compartment Syndrome (CECS) is a painful condition often experienced by athletes and active individuals.

Occurence

It occurs when increased pressure within a muscle compartment restricts blood flow and impairs muscle function during exercise. Our clinic offers compartment pressure testing—a reliable, minimally invasive procedure that measures pressure within the affected muscle compartments. This test helps diagnose CECS by confirming elevated pressure levels before and after exercise. Accurate diagnosis is essential for creating an effective treatment plan to alleviate symptoms and support your return to pain-free activity.
