Arthroscopy & Sports Injuries
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure for
the treatment of sports injuries. Regular wear & tear of the tendons &
joints makes them susceptible to damage which is now repaired via a keyhole
procedure for faster recovery and improved rehabilitation.
How Arthroscopic Surgery Works ?
Arthroscopy is a relative newcomer to the world of surgical
procedures. It is a minimally invasive approach to treating joint injuries and
has proven to be highly effective at reducing recovery times and minimizing
scarring in the affected area. Your surgeon will make three small incisions
around the injured joint in order to insert a small camera called an
arthroscope, along with specialized surgical instruments.
Benefits of arthroscopic surgeries include:
A smaller incision area
Minimal damage to healthy areas of the joint
Shorter recovery times
Reduced scarring
Though arthroscopy is an option for athletes and
non-athletic people, these benefits can be crucial for those who need to return
to sports or work as quickly as possible.
