However, if they experience persistent discomfort or pain in their legs, you can count on us for exceptional diagnosis, treatment, and compassionate care. Our hospital boasts India’s finest orthopaedic specialists and cutting-edge medical equipment, guaranteeing comprehensive management and treatment for each patient. We provide the most effective solutions for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries, all within a single, state-of-the-art facility
Anterior Cruciate Ligament or ACL injury is a knee injury of the front of the knee which can happen due to trauma such as falling, hitting, sliding, or jumping. There can be partial or complete tears of the anterior cruciate ligament, causing mild to severe pain.
You may notice a popping sound when walking or have mild to severe pain along with swelling and inability to move. That’s when you may realise you need to see a doctor. Since the anterior cruciate ligament helps in locomotion, injury to the ACL may cost you motion and locomotory function loss.
We at Omni Hospital take care of every need of our patients. Our team of medical experts, specialising in the interdisciplinary branches of medical sciences, has vast experience in treating and caring for patients with a variety of health problems.
The first thing our doctors perform is a physical test for your pain to determine the severity and symptoms. Imaging tests might also be performed to determine the extent of damage to the ACL Anterior Cruciate Ligament. These tests include an X-ray and an MRI.
We have been dedicated to providing comprehensive patient care and having an amicable patient-healthcare provider relationship for the management and treatment of injuries and various other problems to ensure the holistic recovery of patients. We first advocate non-surgical methods to treat ACL injury, along with physical therapy and the use of knee braces. The best treatment plan may be customised for you (including surgery, only if necessary) by discussing your symptoms and severity of pain and extent of injury so that we can ensure fast recovery and you can walk on your own soon!
At Omni Hospitals, our team of well-experienced, board-certified medical surgeons supported by healthcare staff specialising in patient care provide the best medical services to patients in India and abroad. Patient information confidentiality is also taken seriously to ensure smooth treatment, management and recovery of your problems.
Backed by our excellent surgical and laboratory facilities for prompt diagnosis and surgery as and when required, we have been providing the best overall treatment for bone and knee problems (including ACL) with great expertise and care. In collaboration with our therapeutic experts, rehabilitation and physical therapy of our patients have been well taken care of for an all-round recovery post-treatment.
Wear protective gear such as a pad or knee guard to safeguard against falling and hitting the knees. If you are hurt, do not play anymore. Take rest instead.
Surgery may or may not be required depending upon the severity of the ACL injury. If you have mild pain, therapy and rest may work great for you.
Recovery from an ACL injury may take many months, even up to one year. However, it might be a bit quicker if the extent of the injury is not severe.
You can walk around with knee braces on. However, exercising or playing with braces on is not recommended.
