Karnal 30th October:- As
many as 100 people were examined in a free knee & hips related problems
camp at Puran Hospital, Taraori near here on Wednesday. The camp was organized
by Alchemist Hospital, Panchkula.
In camp, Dr Sandeep Kumar Jindal,
consultant orthopedics & joint replacement surgeon and Dr Veenu Sharma,
physiotherapist from Alchemist Hospital examined patients and gave
consultations.
The 30% discount on X-ray, free
blood sugar and free BMD test were also offered during camp.
Speaking during occasion, Dr
Sandeep Kumar Jindal said that every year, more than 800,000 people undergo
total joint replacement surgery worldwide.
He shared that primary candidates
are individuals with chronic joint pain from arthritis that interferes with
daily activities, walking, exercise, leisure, recreation and work.
The surgery aims to relieve pain,
restore patient independence and return him or her to work and other daily
activities. Knee replacement patients recover quickly. Patients will be able to
walk the first day after surgery. Generally, patients can return to driving in
four to six weeks, he asserted.
He informed that the aim of the camp was also to develop a
comprehensive planned course of treatment.
Dr Sandeep Kumar said that we
believe that the patient plays a key role in ensuring a successful recovery.
Our goal is to involve the patient in his or her treatment through each step of
the program. This patient guide will give them the necessary information needed
for a safe and successful surgical outcome. He said that knee joints problems
are higher in women as compared to men because the hormone changes that occur
in menopause directly affect bone density.
Meanwhile, Alchemist Hospital is
one of the leading centers for joint replacement surgeries, with a team of
expert renowned orthopedic surgeons. It has consistently delivered high-quality
results in knee replacement, hip replacement and shoulder replacement
comparable to the world’s best centers.
