Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation plays most crucial role in Sports Medicine by screening of Neuro-musculoskeletal and Biomechanical abnormalities, clinical & radiological assessment of sports injuries, post-injury & post-surgical rehabilitation, recovery and early return to sports as well as prevention of injuries. Comprehensive Sports Rehabilitation which should be started as early as possible, consists of pain management (by conservative, interventional & regenerative therapy), flexibility, joint range of motion, strength & endurance training, proprioception & co-ordination, proper nutrition and sports psychology.

Another memorable milestone has been achieved by our dynamic Interventional Physiatry team. This time, we have successfully performed Intradiscal Biacuplasty (IDB) for chronic discogenic pain of a middle-aged woman. IDB is a recent advanced pain management procedure by denervating painful vertebral disc (39-65% of non-radiating lower back pain) with cooled bipolar radio-frequency. This is the first-ever IDB procedure, done by any government hospital of India. This news has been published today in several frontline newspapers.
