Common Knee Sports Injuries

Expert diagnosis and treatment for all knee conditions affecting athletes and active individuals

🦵

ACL Injury & Reconstruction

Anterior cruciate ligament tears are common in pivoting sports. We provide both conservative rehabilitation for partial tears and advanced arthroscopic reconstruction when necessary.

Our Approach

Conservative treatment first for stable knees, double-bundle keyhole reconstruction for complete tears requiring surgery

🔄

PCL Injury & Repair

Posterior cruciate ligament injuries often respond well to conservative treatment. When surgery is needed, we use advanced minimally invasive techniques.

Our Approach

80% treated conservatively with specialized rehabilitation protocols, arthroscopic repair for severe instability

Meniscus Tears

Meniscus injuries range from minor tears that heal naturally to complex tears requiring surgical repair. Proper diagnosis determines the best treatment approach.

Our Approach

Conservative management for stable tears, keyhole meniscus repair or trimming when conservative treatment insufficient

🎯

Patella Disorders

Kneecap problems including dislocation, tracking issues, and chondromalacia. Most respond excellently to targeted conservative treatment.

Our Approach

Physical therapy and biomechanical correction first, arthroscopic treatment for severe cartilage damage

🔥

IT Band Syndrome

Overuse injury causing lateral knee pain in runners and cyclists. Responds very well to conservative treatment with proper rehabilitation.

Our Approach

Conservative treatment success rate >95% with activity modification, stretching protocols, and biomechanical correction

💪

Cartilage Injuries

Articular cartilage damage from sports trauma or wear. Treatment ranges from conservative management to advanced keyhole repair techniques.

Our Approach

PRP and injection therapy first, arthroscopic microfracture or cartilage transplant for severe cases

Conservative vs. Surgical Treatment Options
