FAQs
Joint replacement surgery helps restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve the quality of life for patients suffering from severe arthritis or joint damage.
Recovery varies, but most patients can walk with assistance within a few days and achieve full recovery within 3 to 6 months with proper physiotherapy.
If the ACL tear causes instability and affects daily activities or sports performance, surgery is often recommended to restore function and prevent further joint damage.
Many minor sports injuries can heal with rest, physiotherapy, and medication, but severe ligament or cartilage damage may require surgical intervention.
