Patients with sports injuries, joint instability, ligament tears or persistent knee, shoulder and elbow symptoms can seek specialist evaluation at Fortis Hospital, Mulund, subject to current consultation availability.
Sports injury management involves diagnosing and treating damage affecting muscles, tendons, ligaments and joints during physical activity. Treatment may include rehabilitation, medication, bracing or surgery. The approach depends on injury severity, functional limitations and the patient's activity goals.
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a small camera to examine and treat selected conditions inside the knee joint. It may be used for meniscus injuries, ligament-related problems and certain cartilage abnormalities. Recovery depends on the procedure performed.
Shoulder arthroscopy uses small incisions and specialised instruments to examine and treat conditions affecting the shoulder joint. It may be considered for rotator cuff tears, instability and other structural problems. Treatment planning depends on imaging and clinical evaluation.
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction replaces a torn ACL using a tendon graft to restore knee stability in selected patients. Surgery may be considered for persistent instability or demanding activity requirements. Rehabilitation is an important part of recovery and return to sport.
Posterior cruciate ligament injuries affect a major stabilising ligament of the knee. Some injuries can be treated with rehabilitation and bracing, while severe or combined ligament injuries may require surgery. Treatment is based on instability, symptoms and associated damage.
Meniscus repair involves surgically treating selected tears of the cartilage-like tissue that cushions the knee joint. Repair is preferred when the tear pattern and blood supply support healing. Other injuries may require different surgical or non-surgical treatment.
Rotator cuff repair treats selected tears affecting tendons that stabilise and move the shoulder. Surgery may be considered when symptoms persist or when significant traumatic tendon damage is present. Rehabilitation supports gradual recovery of movement and strength.
Shoulder instability occurs when the joint repeatedly slips or dislocates because of injury or structural abnormalities. Treatment may involve strengthening exercises, rehabilitation or surgical stabilisation. Decisions depend on recurrence, age, activity level and associated tissue damage.
Elbow arthroscopy uses a small camera and instruments to treat selected conditions within the elbow joint. It may be considered for loose bodies, stiffness and certain injuries. The suitability of this technique depends on the diagnosis and proximity of important nerves.
Joint preservation surgery aims to maintain natural joint structures and delay or avoid replacement where possible. Procedures may address ligament damage, instability, cartilage injuries or abnormal alignment. Treatment depends on joint condition, patient age and functional needs.
Joint cartilage injuries can cause pain, swelling or difficulty with movement. Treatment may include rehabilitation, activity modification or selected cartilage restoration procedures. The most suitable approach depends on defect size, location and surrounding joint health.
Complex fractures and fracture-dislocations involving the shoulder or elbow may require surgical fixation or reconstruction. Treatment aims to restore alignment, stability and joint function. The approach is determined by fracture pattern, soft tissue injury and patient-specific factors.
