Reaching for a high shelf, lifting a bag, or even the simple act of combing your hair should not be painful. But as we get older, our shoulders can lose the flexibility and strength that help us do these things easily. Our modern lifestyle, with long hours at a desk or travelling, can often make this problem worse.

The good news is that taking small steps now can make a big difference. By making these simple habits a part of your daily routine, you can protect your shoulder health for years to come.

- Move Daily: Use simple exercises (shoulder rolls, arm raises, resistance bands) to maintain strength and flexibility at home.
- A physiotherapist can teach you the right posture and movements to prevent strain.
- Watch Your Posture: Sit and stand straight, especially when at a desk, on your phone, or driving.
- Avoid Overload: Protect your shoulders by using the right technique to lift things. Avoid carrying very heavy or uneven loads.
- Act on Pain Early: Never ignore discomfort. Early treatment stops minor issues from becoming major problems.

If your shoulders feel stiff, weak, or painful, don’t ignore! Please feel free to reach out to us - Let us help you get back to doing what you love!

Did you know only 9% of Tennis Elbow cases occur in tennis players — the other 91% affect regular people like you and me?

Yes, that’s right! Tennis Elbow is one of the most common causes of persistent elbow pain, yet it’s widely misunderstood. In my latest video, I’ve explained in simple terms what Tennis Elbow really is, why it happens even in people who have never played tennis, and the safe, effective treatment options available. I’ve also discussed why steroid injections may seem like a quick fix but can actually do more harm than good in the long run.

If you or someone you know is struggling with persistent and severe elbow pain, don’t miss this. Click on the link below to watch the full video and get clear, expert guidance on Tennis Elbow!

One of the biggest myths I frequently hear as an Orthopedic Surgeon is that Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is caused by typing or because of computer work! The truth? It’s much broader than that.

That nagging numbness or tingling sensation in your hand is actually from a compressed nerve in your wrist, which can result from many repetitive tasks—not just keyboard use!

Remember, ignoring the symptoms can lead to bigger problems and the good news is that effective treatments are available. In my recent video, I’ve discussed about:
• A simple explanation about what is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• Why a proper diagnosis and evaluation are crucial
• An overview of both non-surgical and surgical treatment options for Carpal tunnel syndrome

Get clear, simple answers by watching the full video!

Did you know that there is a direct link between excessive smartphone use and hand pain?

Repetitive motions like swiping, tapping, and typing can lead to a condition called "texting thumb" or worsen existing issues like arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome. It’s not just a minor ache; it can cause stiffness, numbness, and a significant loss of strength in your hands.

Conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome and cubital tunnel syndrome can be aggravated by holding your phone for long periods. These conditions cause pain, tingling, and weakness in your fingers and hands.

“Simple changes in how you hold your phone and taking frequent breaks can make a world of difference!”, says Dr. Deepthi Nandan Reddy, Shoulder and Hand Surgeon in Hyderabad.

If you are experiencing persistent hand pain, don’t ignore the signs. Let us help you get back to doing what you love!

Are you taking enough care of your bones? Remember, they are the foundation of your body! To keep them strong and healthy, it's not just about calcium. Your bones rely on a well-balanced diet with a special focus on Calcium, Vitamin D and Protein!

Calcium is the main building block, and without enough in your diet, your body will take it from your bones, making them weak. That’s why getting your daily dose from foods like milk, leafy greens, and nuts is crucial. Vitamin D is equally important as it helps your body actually absorb that calcium. And don't forget Protein, which forms a meshwork for bones to grow on.

Making sure you get these nutrients is the simplest way to protect your bone health for the long run!

- Not moving the shoulder at all – Some gentle movement is needed for recovery

Listen to your body – Pain is a signal. With small changes in daily habits, your shoulder can heal better and faster.

Shoulder arthritis happens when the cartilage in your shoulder joint wears down, causing pain, stiffness, and reduced movement. Over time, everyday activities like lifting your arm, combing your hair, or even sleeping on your side can become difficult.

Common symptoms include:
• Shoulder pain
• Stiffness and loss of range of motion
• Grinding, clicking, popping or cracking in your Shoulder joint

If these symptoms persist or worsen, it’s time to see an Orthopedic Surgeon specialized in Shoulder Surgery at the earliest. Early diagnosis can help manage pain and prevent further joint damage.

Treatment options range from physiotherapy, pain medication, and lifestyle changes to injections or shoulder replacement surgery in advanced cases.

Don’t ignore long-standing shoulder pain. Let us help you get back to doing what you love!
