About Orthopaedic Doctors in India

Musculoskeletal conditions include a diverse range of complications such as stiffness in joints, chronic or sudden intense pain, swelling in muscles, etc. An individual may face any of these issues due to muscle injury, ligament tear, bone and tendon dislocation, often linked to factors such as -

  • Reduction in bone density due to ageing
  • Increased mechanical stress on long bones due to excessive weight gain
  • Injury caused during accidental falls
  • Lifting heavy objects.

If someone is suffering from bone or muscle pain, seeing an orthopaedic doctor in India is recommended. They examine the cause and then fix dislocated or broken joints by applying splints and casts. When advanced intervention is required, they also perform joint replacement surgeries. 

Among the most prevalent surgical interventions are hip and knee replacements, which enhance the quality of life of the patient after the treatment.

There are some specialisations in orthopaedics, such as paediatric orthopaedics, foot and ankle orthopaedics, joint replacement, and sports medicine. All these specialists play a crucial role in improving the quality of life for patients suffering from bone problems.

Criteria To Choose The Best Orthopaedic Doctor in India

Patients seek an orthopaedic doctor when suffering from stiffness in joints, chronic or sudden intense pain, and other urgent complications. Here are some criteria for choosing the best orthopaedic doctor in India -

Orthopaedic Doctor’s Credentials : It's essential to verify the qualifying degree, board certification, and fellowship training the orthopaedic doctor has attained. Also, a patient must ensure that the doctor has no malpractice claims against them.

Experience in the Specialised Field: The orthopaedic doctor's experience handling similar cases also play a important role in building a sense of trust and reliability for patients. 

Patients Feedback: Before consulting any orthopaedic doctor in India, many people consider reviews of previous patients regarding their treatment experience. The orthopaedic doctors who receive satisfactory feedback, are considered more reliable.

Ease of Movement: Many patients prefer orthopaedic doctors in their own city so they don't have to travel far for treatment and follow-ups. As a result, most patients prioritise local orthopaedic doctors, valuing accessibility and convenience for treatment and ongoing care.

Short Waiting Hours: Orthopaedic surgeons who schedule consultations conveniently are more preferred.

Easy Access to Routine Diagnostic Techniques: The proximity of diagnostic methods such as X-ray, MRI, ultrasound, and computed tomography is crucial. Patients tend to visit doctors who have these diagnostic imaging techniques at a convenient distance.

What Procedures do Orthopaedic Surgeons Perform?

Orthopaedic doctors decide the treatment procedure based on the musculoskeletal injuries and conditions.

Some of the procedures performed by Orthopaedic doctors in India are listed below-

Joint Replacement/Arthroplasty : In this surgery a defective joint surface is replaced by an orthopaedic prosthesis made up of metal, plastic, or ceramic. These prosthetic joints mimic the function of natural joints and ease the life of the patient. Some of the significant arthroplasty surgeries are listed below-

  1. Hip Replacement Surgery:The hip joint is one of the largest ball-and-socket joints, and its performance is largely affected by osteoarthritis and osteonecrosis. This surgery is performed to replace arthritic or damaged hip joints with a prosthetic for pain relief. 
  2. Knee Replacement: Any disability in the knee joint arises due to injury and arthritis, leading to immense pain and difficulty in movement. Knee replacement is done when medicinal treatment methods remain futile due to continuous degeneration of the knee joint.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Surgery: ACL injury is commonly seen in athletes where the ligament in the knee gets damaged due to excessive stress inserted on them during sports. Hence, the surgery is performed to replace torn ligaments with a tissue graft to mimic the natural ACL.

Arthroscopy/ Keyhole Surgery: In this technique, a thin surgical instrument is inserted through a small incision to view and fix the following conditions -

  1. Loose bone fragments
  2. Damaged or torn cartilage
  3. Inflamed joint linings
  4. Torn ligaments
  5. Scarring within joints

Knee and wrist injuries are one of the most common injuries which lead to swelling and pain. If swelling and pain persist for a longer duration, arthroscopy is recommended. A fibre-optic camera is inserted to view the underlying damage and fix it through minimum incisions.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament (MPFL) Reconstruction: This reconstruction surgical procedure is performed to repair the MPFL ligament, which connects the patella with the thigh bone. During sports, the MPFL gets damaged, after which surgery is performed to replace it with a tissue graft and fix the recurrent patellar dislocation.

Joint Revision Surgery: Sometimes, prosthetics or implants fail to function at their full potential or their function degrades with time. This surgery is performed to replace the previously inserted joint with the new one and extend the quality of the patient's life.

Orthopaedic Robotic Surgery: One of the latest evolutions in the field of surgery is employing robotic-arm-assisted orthopaedic surgery to perform knee and hip replacements. This ensures precision and postoperative pain and improves the achievement of limb mobility quickly.

Fracture Care and Repair: Orthopaedic doctors usually perform casting to reconnect the dislocated joint. In critical cases when casting isn’t enough to heal the broken bone, surgeons need to operate by procedures such as open reduction and internal fixation. 

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: In this therapeutic technique, a patient's blood sample is used to create platelet-rich plasma and then injected into the injured bone or tendon. This plasma contains bio proteins or hormones, which accelerate the healing process and thus reduce pain.

Orthopaedic Oncology Surgery: Prolonged pain could be one of the symptoms of bone cancer, which should be checked immediately. This surgery is performed to treat primary bone cancers, soft tissue sarcomas, osteosarcoma, etc., by amputation and soft tissue excisions/resections.
