This department specializes in treating common orthopedic conditions, including fractures and dislocations that are prevalent in our region. It also addresses structural disorders that arise as long-term consequences of these injuries.
Beneficial Sports for Joint Health
The recommended sports activities for maintaining joint health include low-intensity exercises such as walking, swimming, and cycling. High-impact activities such as weightlifting and long-distance running should be avoided to prevent joint stress.
To combat arthritis, using a walking stick can be used to combat arthritis, as it helps in preventing further joint damage. Physiotherapy is beneficial in reducing pain and muscle spasms, as well as in preserving the range of motion. Regular exercise plays a crucial role in managing osteoarthritis. If oral medications and physiotherapy prove ineffective, a local anesthetic can be injected into the knee to alleviate pain.
For daily exercise, consider walking short distances and wearing comfortable shoes that offer proper support. If walking is challenging, exercises can be performed while seated or in water. Warm water supports your body weight, making movements easier and helping to preserve joint function. Always warm up before engaging in strenuous activities to protect your joints, and consider using knee guards when kneeling to protect your knee joints.
Beyond treating common injuries, our partnered hospitals perform arthroscopic surgeries for the knees, shoulders, and ankles. We also address sports injuries, and offer hip and knee replacements.
