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.

I'm a 31-year-old male and I recently got a hyaluronic acid injection for chondromalasia. I've noticed a bit of swelling in my leg, from my knee down to my foot. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it just part of the process? Also, how long does it usually take to see the full benefits of the injection?
Mild swelling in the leg from knee to foot after hyaluronic acid injection for chondromalacia is a common and temporary side effect, typically resolving within 1-3 weeks; the full therapeutic effect of the injection usually becomes apparent within 4-6 weeks, with optimal results often seen after 2-3 months, but individual responses may vary, so follow-up with your doctor to monitor progress and address any concerns.
