Available Injection Modalities
Viscosupplementation (Hyaluronic Acid)
Injects a gel-like substance (hyaluronic acid) directly into the knee joint to replicate the natural lubricating synovial fluid. This improves shock absorption, reduces bone-on-bone friction, and can relieve arthritis pain for 6 to 12 months.
Corticosteroid Injections
Strong anti-inflammatory injections designed to provide rapid relief from acute joint inflammation, swelling, and pain. These are highly effective for managing severe arthritis flare-ups or frozen shoulder.

Pre-Operative Preparation & Clinical Evaluation
A successful orthopaedic outcome starts with meticulous planning. Prior to scheduling any procedure, patients undergo a thorough medical evaluation, including cardiac clearances, complete blood profiles, and tailored joint imaging.
3D Anatomical Mapping
CT scans or high-res MRIs are loaded into the computer software to pre-plan bone cuts and implant size before entering the theatre.
Pre-Hab Exercises
Mild quadriceps and core strengthening exercises are recommended to build muscle tone, which speeds up postoperative recovery.
Post-Operative Rehabilitation & Recovery Pathways
Rehabilitation is a critical phase of recovery. Following surgery, Dr. Vikrant Sinha Roy's team coordinates with clinical physiotherapists to execute structured post-op exercises, facilitating joint mobilization, restoring gait patterns, and strengthening surrounding muscle groups.
Phase 1: Mobilization (Week 1-2)
Focus on wound healing, swelling management, and walking with support.
Phase 2: Strengthening (Week 3-6)
Transitioning to walking independently, climbing stairs, and building muscle flexibility.
Phase 3: Functional Restoration (Week 6+)
Returning to normal daily work, traveling, and light recreational sports.
Patient Success Stories
"I suffered a complex bone fracture in an accident. Dr. Vikrant performed a stable alignment fixation. The surgical precision helped me recover and stand on my feet much faster than expected."

Orthopaedic FAQs
Complex fractures require rigid surgical fixation using plates, locking screws, or nails (ORIF) to restore bone length and rotation, permitting immediate joint movements to prevent stiffness.
Conservative management includes tailored physiotherapy programs, core stabilization exercises, medical pain therapies, and intra-articular spinal injections for disc inflammation.
