Modernity in the medical field is proving to be beneficial for patients suffering from knee pain. Due to today’s lifestyle, this problem starts occurring in elderly people as well as people who are over 40 years of age. Dr. Sujoy Bhattacharjee, a senior specialist in the Joint Transplant Department of Sarvodaya Hospital, Sector 8, Faridabad, offers various options for treating knee pain, including joint replacement. With over 22,000 joint transplants under his belt, Bhattacharjee provides insights into modern treatments and their potential to help patients return to a normal, pain-free life.
Physiotherapy is a treatment option for knee pain, involving exercises to strengthen muscles and improve mobility. PRP therapy involves injecting plasma into the knee to repair cartilage and muscles without swelling, providing relief from knee pain. Autologous Cartilage Replantation repairs damaged cartilage, allowing the joint to move without pain and reducing joint pain. Mosaicplasty reduces wear and tear on kneecaps and arthritis-related pain.
Robotic joint replacement offers quick recovery, long implant life, walking ability 2 hours post-surgery, more secure technology, and no need for physiotherapy, thanks to precise placement. These procedures are effective for initial knee pain relief, but robotic joint replacement is an effective solution for extensive damage. However, these treatments are limited to initial knee pain relief.
