Meniscus Injury
Meniscus Injury Treatment in Banashankari, Bangalore
Dr Prajwal KN, Orthopaedic Sports Injury Specialist
If you need treatment for a meniscus injury in Banashankari, Bangalore, Dr Prajwal KN offers thorough orthopaedic assessments along with customised care for meniscus tears, knee pain, sports-related injuries, and cartilage issues in the knee.
The meniscus is a type of cartilage that helps cushion the knee and keeps it stable. You can get a meniscus tear from sports, twisting movements, falls, accidents, or even ageing. Some typical signs of a tear include knee pain, swelling, stiffness, a clicking sensation, locking of the knee, trouble squatting, and limited movement in the knee.
Advanced Meniscus Tear Treatment
The treatment you receive will be based on factors like where the tear is located, how severe it is, the symptoms you're experiencing, your age, activity level, and the overall health of your knee. Depending on your specific situation, approaches may include rest, physiotherapy, medication, changes to your activity level, or even arthroscopic surgery on the knee. If surgery is needed, arthroscopy allows for both diagnosis and treatment of certain meniscus injuries through small incisions.
Dr Prajwal KN takes a patient-centred approach, ensuring that patients understand their diagnosis and available treatment options before proceeding with care. Rehabilitation and physiotherapy play critical roles in regaining knee strength, mobility, stability, and overall function.
