What is Chondroplasty?

 

Chondroplasty is a surgical intervention designed to treat damaged or worn cartilage in a joint. The cartilage acts as a cushion, allowing smooth and painless movement. However, conditions like osteoarthritis or injury can lead to cartilage defects, causing discomfort and limited mobility.

During a chondroplasty, a skilled orthopedic surgeon such as Dr. Biren Nadkarni carefully trims or smoothes the damaged cartilage surfaces, aiming to improve joint function, alleviate pain, and potentially slow down further degeneration. The procedure can be performed using various techniques, including arthroscopy, where small incisions and specialized instruments are used.

Following the surgery, a tailored rehabilitation program is often recommended to optimize recovery and restore joint strength and mobility. It's crucial to adhere to the post-operative instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

If you've been diagnosed with knee cartilage damage, consult Dr. Biren Nadkarni, Senior Orthopedic Consultant & Surgeon. He will be available in person at his clinic - Joint & Bone Solutions at Hauz Khas, New Delhi. He can also be reached at Sitaram Bhartia Institute and Holy Family Hospital.

Can I participate in sports or other physical activities after Subacromial Decompression Surgery?

 

Subacromial decompression surgery aims to alleviate shoulder pain and restore normal function by creating more space in the subacromial space, reducing impingement on tendons. While every individual's recovery is unique, many patients are able to gradually return to sports and physical activities after proper healing and rehabilitation.

Engaging in physical therapy and closely following your orthopedic surgeon's instructions will optimize your recovery and reduce the risk of re-injury. He will guide you on when it's safe to resume activities. Start with gentle exercises and gradually increasing intensity over time.

Consult Dr. Biren Nadkarni, Senior Orthopedic Consultant and Surgeon, to get the best advice on Subacromial decompression surgery. He will be available in person at his clinic - Joint & Bone Solutions at Hauz Khas, New Delhi. He can also be reached at Sitaram Bhartia Institute and Holy Family Hospital.

What is Synovectomy?

 

A synovectomy is a surgical intervention aimed at removing the inflamed synovial tissue lining a joint. The synovial membrane plays a crucial role in joint lubrication, but when it becomes swollen or damaged due to conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or synovitis, a synovectomy might be considered.

During the procedure, a skilled orthopedic surgeon such as Dr. Biren Nadkarni carefully removes the affected synovial tissue, aiming to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and potentially slow down the progression of joint damage. Synovectomy can be performed through different techniques, including open surgery or minimally invasive approaches like arthroscopy.

It's crucial to follow your Orthopedic's guidance to optimize the outcome of the procedure.

If your knee pains due to inflamed synovial tissue, consult Dr. Biren Nadkarni, Senior Orthopedic Consultant and Surgeon, to get the best advice on Synovectomy. He will be available in person at his clinic - Joint & Bone Solutions at Hauz Khas, New Delhi. He can also be reached at Sitaram Bhartia Institute and Holy Family Hospital.
