The CPM gently bends the knee to aide in soft tissue mobility and to prevent scar. tissue from forming. CPMs are designed to help patients increase range of motion of. the operative joint, and by doing so decreasing pain and stiffness of the joint.

If your dog is hacking away or constantly making noises that make it sound like he's choking on something, he may have a case of kennel cough, or canine infectious tracheobronchitis. Although kennel cough can sound terrible, most of the time it is not a serious condition, and most dogs will recover without treatment.
My clients at the veterinary clinic try to reproduce their dogâs cough all the time. Thatâs because kennel cough, the most common reason an otherwise healthy dog begins to cough, is something between a cough and a gag and an ungodly sound coming from deep in the dogâs innermost sanctum.
