Overview
Sports injuries can affect anyone, from professional athletes to fitness enthusiasts, and range from minor sprains to serious joint or ligament damage. At Sarvodaya Hospital, we offer comprehensive Sports Injury Treatment through our specialised Centre for Orthopaedics. Our team manages a wide range of conditions, including ACL tears, meniscal injuries, shoulder dislocations, and more.
We specialise in minimally invasive techniques like arthroscopy to treat ligament injuries, cartilage damage, and joint issues with precision and minimal downtime. While most sports injuries are treated through arthroscopic methods, selected complex cases may involve robotic guidance for enhanced visualisation and alignment. Our personalised rehabilitation plans ensure a safe return to physical activity with improved strength, mobility, and confidence.
