Knee Ligament Repair In Jamshedpur by Expert Surgeon Dr. Vikram Sharma

Symptoms of Knee Ligament Tear- When Do I Need to Consult with an Expert?

A knee ligament tear can happen due to excessive stress on the knee ligament. You can damage your knee ligament by abruptly changing your direction or suddenly stopping during running, wrong landing after jumping, directly hitting the knee, and getting into a serious accident. The symptoms of knee ligament tear differ based on the severity of the injury. In mild cases, symptoms are also mild, but signs are worse in critical issues. Here is a list of common symptoms of knee ligament tear.

• Mild to severe pain. 
• Swell and tenderness in the knee.
• Instability.
• Immobility.
• Stiffness.
• Fever and chills.

You may not need to visit a doctor in the case of mild knee ligament tears. Rest, restricted mobility, ice, and pain medication can restore normalcy. But if the problem persists after primary care and symptoms worsen with time, it is a clear sign you need to consult an expert. At SportsMed, we offer expert consultation with Dr. Vikram Sharma for quality knee ligament repair in Jamshedpur.   

Conditions & Procedures of Knee Ligament Repair

Knee ligament repair is a method of reconstructing knee ligament tissues that get torn due to excessive stress on the ligament. There are mainly two ways of knee ligament treatments, one is surgical, and another is non-surgical. The non-surgical method includes-

• RICE stands for Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation of the Leg.
• Knee bracing.
• Pain reliever medication.
• Chiropractic care.  

We recommend knee ligament repair treatment when the non-surgical approach fails to resolve the issue. Also, some conditions show you need a knee ligament repair treatment. Below is the list of other conditions that indicate you need a knee ligament repair in Jamshedpur. 

• If the problem persists after home remedies and non-surgical care like RICE, knee bracing, and medication. 
• If the problem recurs again and again.
• If the issue takes longer than usual to heal.
• If the symptoms of knee ligament tear get worse as time passes. 
• If you feel instability in the knee or fail to stand or walk. 

The most effective knee ligament repair treatments are arthroscopic or arthroscopic reconstruction surgeries to repair the torn ligament fibers of the knee ligament. At SportsMed, we offer high-quality arthroscopic knee ligament repair in Jamshedpur by Dr. Vikram Sharma.

Arthroscopy is the most popular and advanced medical treatment for knee ligament repair. Before arthroscopic surgery, a surgeon uses MRI, X-ray, and scan to diagnose the current condition of the injured knee. Then, they check the blood pressure, heart condition, and blood sugar levels to prevent complications during and after the surgery.

In arthroscopy, a surgeon makes small incisions on your knee to insert a micro camera and instruments inside your knee. Then, they perform the surgery using a camera to screen the internal images of the knee and micro tools for cutting and stitching. 

Precautions Before and After the Knee Ligament Repair

Knee ligament repair surgery is a sensitive surgery. That is why you need to undergo strict precautions pre and post-surgery. At SportsMed, we recommend a few essential precautions to every patient for knee ligament repair in Jamshedpur. 

Before Knee Ligament Repair

Quit alcohol – Alcohol can affect the surgery and increase the risk factors, so quitting alcohol is necessary before surgery.

Healthy food – You must have balanced blood pressure and sugar levels before surgery. Also, you need to strengthen your immune system for fast recovery. Thus, eating healthy food is also essential before knee ligament repair. 

Quit smoking – Smoking has similar complications as alcohol, so you must quit smoking before surgery.

Exercise – You also need to keep your body flexible before surgery. Our experts usually recommend upper body exercises. 

After Knee Ligament Repair

• Do not try to move or walk immediately after surgery.
• Keep the knee dry and use a sponge to clean the wounds.
• Do not run, jump, bend or shake your knee.
• Never put weight on your knee. 
• Avoid stairs, uneven landscape, sloppy landscape, and use crutches. 
• Put a pillow behind your leg and keep your feet at a higher level than your heart while sleeping. 
• Do not wear clothes while standing.
