Treatments

Specialised care and treatments offered

KNEE ARTHROSCOPY

Knee Arthroscopy

Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure utilized for diagnosing and treating various knee problems. It’s often recommended when there are signs of persistent knee issues despite non-surgical treatments failings...

CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

This condition occurs when pressure on the median nerve causes symptoms such as tingling or numbness in fingers. It’s common among individuals whose work requires repetitive wrist motions such as typing or assembly line tasks.

  • Main symptoms include a nagging sensation in hands that may lead to weakness over time if untreated.
  • An accurate diagnosis often involves both symptom evaluation and nerve conduction studies to assess nerve function within the wrist area.
  • Treatment can entail splinting at night along with corticosteroid injections; if conservative treatments fail, surgical options exist that relieve pressure on the median nerve.

PLANTAR FASCIITIS

Plantar Fasciitis

This common foot condition affects people across various age groups but is especially prevalent among those who are overweight or engage in high-impact sports. Plantar fasciitis causes inflammation of the plantar fascia tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot.

  • Typical symptoms include sharp heel pain that worsens after long periods of standing or when first getting out of bed in the morning.
  • A precise diagnosis is made through clinical evaluation along with any necessary imaging tests as needed for confirming inflammation severity.
  • Treatment options may range from rest and stretching exercises to orthotic devices or anti-inflammatory medications; surgery is rare but can be considered if conservative measures fail.

Caring for plantar fasciitis early leads to better long-term outcomes and enhanced foot health.

HIP FRACTURE

Hip Fracture

A hip fracture typically occurs due to falls or high-impact trauma, particularly in elderly patients with weakened bones. This serious injury requires prompt medical attention due to its implications on mobility and independence.

  • Common symptoms include severe hip pain, inability to move or bear weight on the affected leg, and visible deformity in some cases.
  • The diagnosis can be confirmed through physical examination accompanied by X-rays or CT scans to evaluate bone integrity.
  • Treatment usually involves surgical repair followed by rehabilitation exercises aimed at regaining strength and mobility post-surgery.

A thorough approach to managing hip fractures is crucial for successful recovery outcomes.

ROTATOR CUFF INJURY

Rotator Cuff Injury

A rotator cuff injury involves damage to the group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint. It's prevalent among athletes and individuals who perform repetitive overhead activities.

  • Common symptoms include shoulder pain, limited range of motion, and difficulty reaching overhead.
  • The diagnosis often involves a clinical examination along with imaging studies such as ultrasound or MRI to assess the extent of the injury.
  • Treatment strategies might involve rest, physiotherapy, corticosteroid injections, or surgical intervention depending on the severity of the tear.
  • Post-treatment rehabilitation is essential for restoring strength and function to the shoulder.

A comprehensive understanding of rotator cuff injuries aids in proper recovery and prevention strategies.

OSTEOARTHRITIS

Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that commonly affects older adults, but it can also occur in younger individuals due to injury or overuse. This condition leads to the deterioration of cartilage, which cushions the joints and results in pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.

  • Symptoms include joint pain and swelling, particularly after physical activity or prolonged periods of inactivity.
  • The condition is diagnosed through a physical examination and imaging tests such as X-rays or MRIs.
  • Treatment options encompass lifestyle modifications, physical therapy, medications for pain relief, and in severe cases, surgical procedures like joint replacement.
  • Management focuses on improving joint function and decreasing discomfort while aiming to maintain an active lifestyle.

Understanding osteoarthritis is crucial for effective management and enhancing quality of life.
