In a breakthrough for knee pain sufferers, traditional notions of treatment are being reshaped by modern medical advancements, according to Dr. Sujoy Bhattacharjee, a distinguished specialist at Sarvodaya Hospital in Sector 8, Faridabad. With the prevalence of knee pain increasing among individuals over 40 due to contemporary lifestyles, Dr. Bhattacharjee emphasizes that knee replacement surgery isn’t the sole recourse. Instead, he unveils an array of innovative treatments aiming to restore normalcy and alleviate pain.
“Physiotherapy emerges as a vital initial step,” Dr. Bhattacharjee highlights, emphasizing its role in strengthening joint muscles and enhancing mobility under professional guidance. Further, he speaks on Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, hailed for its ability to repair cartilage and muscles without inflammation, offering substantial relief from knee pain. Moreover, Dr. Bhattacharjee advocates for Autologous Cartilage Replantation, a pioneering procedure aimed at restoring damaged cartilage to facilitate pain-free joint movement. Mosaicplasty, another technique endorsed by Dr. Bhattacharjee, targets kneecap wear and tear, particularly beneficial for arthritis-induced discomfort.
While these interventions cater to initial knee pain, Dr. Bhattacharjee underscores the efficacy of robotic joint replacement for extensive knee damage. This advanced procedure ensures swift recovery, precise implant placement, and reduced post-operative physiotherapy requirements. “Robotic joint replacement offers a paradigm shift in knee pain management,” Dr. Bhattacharjee affirms, highlighting its benefits including rapid recovery, implant longevity, and enhanced security.
