ACL care at BKC

Weekend football, Monday morning knee

A lot of ACL injuries we see in Mumbai happen to people who play on weekends: five-a-side football, badminton, cricket, or a gym session that ended with a twist. Others come from a slip on a wet monsoon step. The knee swells, feels unsteady, and suddenly the commute is hard work.

The first question is how badly the ligament is torn and how stable the knee is. Some partial tears can be treated without surgery, with an ultrasound-guided injection of PRP or bone marrow concentrate into the ligament, bracing and a rehab programme. A complete tear with a knee that gives way is different, and reconstruction may be the better choice. Our ACL tear page explains the difference.

Because injections are outpatient procedures, most people keep working through treatment, with changes to how they get around while the knee recovers.

When non-surgical care may fit

ACL injuries we assess at BKC

FAQ

ACL tears in Mumbai: common questions

Ask us your question

Do I need an MRI before I come?

It helps, and if you already have one, bring it with films or CD. If you do not, the doctor will examine you first and tell you whether an MRI is needed.

Can I keep working during treatment?

Most people with desk jobs can. You may need a brace and some changes to your commute for a while. Your doctor will guide you.

Will I be able to play football again?

That depends on the tear, the stability of the knee and your rehab. Return to pivoting sport is staged and based on tests of strength and control.

When is the clinic open?
