PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and HA (Hyaluronic Acid) injections are commonly used to manage knee pain and early arthritis, especially when surgery is not immediately required. 🔹 PRP is prepared from the patient’s own blood and helps reduce inflammation while supporting the body’s natural healing response. 🔹 HA improves joint lubrication, helping reduce stiffness and discomfort during movement. These injections are minimally invasive, done as an OPD procedure, and may help relieve pain, improve function, and delay the need for surgery in selected patients. It’s important to understand that PRP and HA are not a cure for arthritis, but they can be effective tools when used at the right stage and for the right patient. 👨‍⚕️ Treatment decisions should always be personalised, based on symptoms, activity level, and joint condition.

🦵 Not everyone with an ACL tear needs surgery.

A stable ACL is not essential for day-to-day activities like walking, climbing stairs, or routine work.
Many people live comfortably without ACL surgery — with the right rehab and guidance.

However, ACL reconstruction is recommended when the person is:
✔️ Young
✔️ Physically active
✔️ A sports enthusiast
✔️ Involved in activities requiring running, jumping, or sudden turns

The key is individualised treatment, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Understanding your lifestyle and goals helps decide what’s right for you.

❄️ Winter often brings arthritis flare-ups and increased joint pain.
Before jumping to conclusions, it’s important to know that knee replacement is not always the first or only solution.

There are several evidence-based treatments that can help manage arthritis, reduce pain, and delay surgery — when advised at the right stage.
However, be cautious of misleading claims online that promise to “cure arthritis” with creams or shortcuts. Unfortunately, arthritis has no instant cure.

👨‍⚕️ If knee replacement is suggested, take time to understand your condition, explore all available options, and don’t hesitate to seek a second medical opinion.

Informed decisions lead to better outcomes. 💙

From teaching techniques to exchanging ideas — being part of the Cadaveric Arthroscopy Course in Bangalore as a faculty panelist was a truly enriching experience. Inspired by the bright surgeons who shaped the day. ✨
