Frequently Asked Questions
We commonly treat ACL and meniscus tears, shoulder dislocations, ligament sprains, tennis elbow, ankle sprains and stress fractures in athletes of all levels.
Not always. Partial tears or low-demand patients may recover with structured physiotherapy, while complete tears in active individuals often benefit from ACL reconstruction surgery.
Return to light activity typically takes 3-4 months, with full return to competitive sport around 6-9 months, guided by a structured rehabilitation program.
Smaller, stable meniscus tears can often be managed with physiotherapy, while larger or unstable tears may require arthroscopic repair for the best long-term outcome.
See a sports injury specialist within 48-72 hours of a significant injury to ensure accurate diagnosis and prevent further damage from delayed treatment.
