OUR APPROACH
We first look at, feel and move the diseased joint before recommending suitable investigation and treatment. Our investigations with a basic X-ray and not like many places where an expensive MRI scan is recommended. In most cases, investigation does not have to go beyond an X-ray; an MRI is definitely not our first option. When we feel the need, we do not hesitate to take the opinion of another colleague at Trinity Sports Injury centre or request for a 2nd opinion elsewhere. If the opinion is sought within our centre, we ensure that our patients aren’t burdened with the cost of second consultation. About 80% of our patients receive a non-surgical treatment. we prefer to recommend life style changes & exercise therapy along with judicious medication for recovery.
We give tips on exercise modification and advocate a holistic approach to handle your knee related issues; treatments include therapy and lifestyle changes, injections, surgery and alternative medicine.
Lifestyle Changes & Physical Therapy
Lifestyle changes are extremely helpful; avoiding certain high impact exercises, maintaining correct posture, wearing appropriate footwear, and more. You may be surprised to learn that several patients are able to fix their knee related issues with simple stretching exercises. Your doctor can help you identify a variety of lifestyle changes that promise better knee health. Additionally, we recommend physical therapy for strengthening the muscles and enhancing joint stability.
Injections
At times, you may be recommended an injection into or around your joint. A few common injections are Corticosteroids, Hyaluronic acid and Platelet-rich plasma (PRP). In some situations, injections inside joints or around tendons & ligaments are used. To optimise their effectiveness these injections are administered under image intensifier or ultrasound guidance. This ensures the drug is delivered at the targeted area.
Surgery
There is an optimal time for every surgical procedure. Some have to be carried out early and others can be planned. At Trinity Hospital, we guide you through the pros & the cons of surgery.The majority of surgeries carried out at Trinity Hospital are minimally invasive arthroscopic procedures for treating joint problems including . previous surgeries (revision) and where multiple ligaments are damaged and re-alignment surgeries that can prolong the life of the natural joint are also carried out regularly at Trinity Hospital.
Physio and Sports Rehabilitation
At Trinity, we believe in holistic approach to injury and pain management. Based on your condition, the doctor may recommend physio and rehab to improve function, relieve pain and aid recovery.
