What are the different ways to do ACL reconstruction surgery in India and does this surgery also fix meniscus issues Which method works better for recovery Will I be able to get back to my usual physical activities like before after the surgery Also what's the average cost for this surgery in India
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
ACL reconstruction surgery in India typically uses minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques, with various graft options like autografts (using your own tissue, often from the patellar tendon or hamstrings), allografts (donor tissue), or rarely, synthetic grafts. The surgery can be combined with meniscus repair or removal if needed. Recovery time is generally 6-12 months, and with proper rehabilitation, you can often return to your previous physical activities. The average cost can vary depending on the hospital, surgeon, and specific procedure, but it's generally in the range of ‚Çπ1,50,000 to ‚Çπ3,00,000.

View allI've been diagnosed with avascular necrosis in both hips stage 3 on the left and stage 2 on the right. The doctor suggested hip replacement surgery, but I'm only 22 and worried about it. Are there any other treatment options besides surgery at this stage?
Stage 2–3 AVN can be managed with core decompression, bisphosphonates, or PRP—joint replacement is for advanced collapse.

I'm having this neck pain for the last couple of days, and it feels like my neck is kind of locked up, maybe like suluku or something. Could you recommend any ointments or balms that might help with this issue?
Feeling a heavy head, especially after eating, can be uncomfortable. Given your blood pressure (BP) reading of 15090 mmHg, it's essential to address both concerns.

Had surgery for giant cell tumor removal from my distal femur knee area on 14/4/2022 with extended curettage cementing plating. It's been 3 weeks but I can only bend my knee around 75-80 degrees and feel heaviness near the surgical site. Is this recovery pace normal or should I be concerned about my knee's range of motion?
ortho opinion is advised to the patient.
