Sports Injury & Arthroscopy

in Mumbai

Comprehensive sports medicine and keyhole arthroscopic surgery in Mumbai at One Spine Clinic provides world-class treatment for acute athletic injuries, chronic ligament tears, and joint instability, returning athletes to peak performance.A slipped disc is also known as a herniated or ruptured disc. This is a spinal condition that causes weakness and numbness in the affected spine region. So let’s get into the article to learn more about slipped disc treatment in Mumbai.

What is Arthroscopy & Sports Medicine?

  • Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure where a tiny camera (arthroscope) and micro-instruments are inserted through pencil-sized incisions to diagnose and repair joint damage.
  • Sports medicine addresses sports-related soft tissue injuries involving ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and joint capsules in knees, shoulders, elbows, and ankles
  • Minimally invasive keyhole techniques preserve healthy tissue, cause minimal scarring, and drastically reduce post-operative recovery time.

There are three types of slipped discs:

  • Contained herniation
  • Non-contained herniation
  • Sequestered herniation

What are the symptoms?

Common sports injuries and arthroscopic procedures treated include:

Here are a few symptoms listed below:

  • ACL / PCL Injuries
  • Meniscus Injuries
  • Rotator Cuff Injuries
  • Frozen Shoulder
  • Tennis / Golfer's Elbow

How are sports injuries diagnosed?

Our sports orthopaedic surgeons conduct specialized clinical stability tests (Lachman, Pivot Shift, Bankart tests) before imaging.

Following that, an imaging test is used to perform a thorough analysis, which includes:

High-Field 3T MRI Scan

Gold standard for visualizing ACL/PCL tears, meniscus splits, labral detachment, and rotator cuff tendon tears.

Dynamic Musculoskeletal 

Ultrasound

Evaluates tendon movement, bursitis, and muscle tears in real-time dynamic motion.

Diagnostic Arthroscopy

Allows direct HD visualization and tactile assessment of cartilage stiffness and micro-tears.

Digital Stress X-Rays

Detects subtle joint laxity, bone avulsions, and joint space alterations under applied force.

Nerve tests are carried out to study the nerves and how impulses are generated through nerve tissues.

The tests listed below will assist you in determining nerve injuries:

Isokinetic Strength Testing

Quantifies muscular imbalances between quadriceps/hamstrings or shoulder rotators.

Movement & Gait Screening

Identifies biomechanical defects in jump landing, pivoting, or throwing mechanics.

What are the conservative treatments for sports injuries?

Non-Surgical & Regenerative Care

 

Many partial ligament strains and tendon overuses heal effectively with non-surgical protocols.

R.I.C.E. Protocol (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation)

 

Targeted NSAIDs for pain and tissue inflammation reduction

What are the keyhole arthroscopic surgical procedures?

Advanced minimally invasive arthroscopic surgeries performed by our sports specialists include:

Arthroscopic Knee ACL / PCL Reconstruction

  • Reconstructs torn anterior/posterior cruciate ligaments using strong autografts (hamstring or bone-patellar tendon-bone).
  • Secures grafts with anatomical fixation buttons to restore complete rotational joint stability.
  • Allows early weight-bearing and progressive return-to-sport rehab.

Discectomy or Microdiscectomy surgery

  • It's one of the most common methods used for slipped disc (lumbar) treatment.
  • During this procedure, the affected disc is removed from the spine.
  • The surgeon will create a path to the disc through an incision in the rear.
  • This is a less invasive method used for herniated discs, termed "discectomy" or "microdiscectomy."

Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair & Debridement

  • Sutures torn meniscal tissue (inside-out / all-inside techniques) to preserve vital shock-absorbing cartilage.
  • Performs partial meniscectomy only when repair is unviable to smooth mechanical catching.
  • Prevents early-onset post-traumatic knee osteoarthritis.

Arthroscopic Shoulder Stabilization (Bankart / Rotator Cuff Repair)

  • Re-attaches torn shoulder labrum and capsule to the glenoid rim using suture anchors.
  • Repairs full and partial thickness rotator cuff tendon tears back to the humeral head.
  • Restores shoulder overhead power and eliminates recurrent dislocations.

What are the risk factors for athletic injuries?

Athletes and active individuals face heightened risk under these conditions:

  • Athletes and active individuals face heightened risk under these conditions:
  • Overtraining syndrome without sufficient recovery days between high-intensity sessions.
  • Muscular strength imbalances between agonist and antagonist muscle groups.
  • Improper athletic technique, improper footwear, or playing on uneven surfaces.

How to prevent sports injuries & re-injury?

  • Incorporate neuromuscular conditioning and plyometric jump-landing training.
  • Perform dynamic stretching before sports and static stretching post-workout.
  • Maintain core stability, hamstring strength, and rotator cuff endurance.
  • Gradually increase training volume and intensity using the 10% progression rule.
