The procedure targets subchondral bone defects by injecting Bone Substitute Material (BSM) into the area of bone edema via a special needle under fluoroscopic (X-ray) guidance. The Subchondroplasty treatment can be done under local or general anaesthesia, and post-procedure pain is usually minimal.

Plantar Fasciitis is one of the commonest causes of heel pain, and it happens when the Plantar Fascia - the thick band of tissue that connects your heel to your toes at the bottom of the foot - becomes inflamed. Characteristically, patients with Plantar Fasciitis experience stabbing pain in the heel when they wake up and take their first steps in the morning or after sitting for a long time.

You may need to have a doctor evaluate your foot if your symptoms have been present for 3-6 months, and are severely affecting your lifestyle.

In addition, a medical evaluation may be necessary if your symptoms do not fit the classical presentation of the condition. Some examples of symptoms that may not be due to plantar fasciitis include:
☑ If you experience burning pain, numbness, and tingling, especially at night.
☑ If your pain worsens with prolonged weight-bearing instead of improving.
☑ If you notice swelling, bruising, or skin redness over the posterior heel.
☑ If the onset of the pain was sudden acute and knife-like, especially after a minor injury.

Jumper’s knee. This is also known as patellar tendinitis. Jumper’s knee happens when there is an injury (or inflammation) to the tissue that connects your kneecap and thigh muscles to your shin bone. Sports with repetitive jumping are common triggers for this injury. Examples include basketball and volleyball. Also, people who are overweight or play sports on a hard surface are more likely to get a jumper's knee. Symptoms include knee pain, usually just below the kneecap. You may experience weakness or stiffness in the knee while jumping, kneeling, or climbing stairs. These injuries can be both acute or chronic.

An ankle sprain is one of the leading causes of ankle pain in the general population and is particularly common in people active in sports and dancing. Most ankle sprains occur after an accidental twisting inversion of the ankle joint. This may injure or tear the outer ankle ligaments (anterior talofibular ligament and posterior talofibular ligament) leading to pain and swelling around the ankle joint. Fortunately, most patients who sustained ankle sprains recover after a few weeks and can continue their usual activities.

Doctors evaluate Ankle Sprain the following way:
☑ We will obtain details on the mechanism of your injury
☑ We will thoroughly examine the ankle to determine the severity and extent of the injury.
☑ X-rays will be performed to exclude fractures.
☑ If your pain has been persistent for 4-6 weeks and you have features of chronic ankle instability such as an ankle that ‘gives way on uneven ground, we may order an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan of the ankle for further evaluation.
☑ We may provide you with recovery aids such as splints and ankle braces.
☑ We may refer you to a physiotherapist in our team, to teach you physical therapy to strengthen the ligaments and muscles around your ankle, restore range of motion, improve balance and proprioception to reduce the risk of further sprains.

Call us on +65 97509874 to evaluate you if you have an ankle sprain!
