INTERNAL BRACE FOR ACL — THE SAFEST BELT FOR YOUR KNEE?

An internal brace is a surgical technique used in selected ACL injuries to reinforce the repaired or reconstructed ligament with a strong suture-tape construct. But it isn’t a literal “belt,” and it isn’t automatically the safest or best option for every ACL injury.

🦵 Added support — the brace can provide reinforcement to the healing ACL.
🔬 Selected ACL injuries — internal bracing may be considered in appropriate patients and injury patterns.
🏃 Designed for stability — the goal is to support knee stability during recovery.
⚕️ Not for everyone — treatment depends on the ACL tear, tissue quality, activity level and overall knee condition.

✔️ Don’t choose an ACL procedure based on the technique name alone.
✔️ Get the injury assessed with clinical examination and appropriate imaging.
✔️ Follow your surgeon’s rehabilitation plan after surgery.
✔️ Return to sports only when strength, stability and functional recovery are adequate.

🎥 Watch the full video by Dr. Deepak Chaudhary to understand how an internal brace works and whether it may be suitable for an ACL injury.

Does raising your arm cause shoulder pain? 🦾

Shoulder impingement can cause pain during overhead movements, especially with repetitive activities that may irritate the rotator cuff tendons.

While many cases can improve with activity modification and physiotherapy, persistent symptoms may require further evaluation and, in selected cases, arthroscopic treatment.

If shoulder pain is limiting your movement or keeps coming back, don’t ignore it. Get the right diagnosis and treatment plan.

ACL reconstruction isn’t one-size-fits-all. 🦵

In selected ACL injuries, techniques such as double-bundle ACL reconstruction and internal bracing can offer additional approaches to restoring knee stability.

Double-bundle reconstruction aims to more closely replicate the functional anatomy of the ACL, while internal bracing can provide additional support to the reconstructed ligament during the healing process.

However, not every patient needs these techniques. The right approach depends on the injury pattern, knee stability, activity level, tissue quality, and overall clinical assessment.

In this video, Dr. Deepak Chaudhary, Orthopedic Surgeon, Delhi, explains these techniques, their potential benefits, and their role in modern ACL reconstruction.

Knee swelling after exercise? Don’t ignore it. 🦵

Some swelling can occur after intense activity, but recurrent or persistent knee swelling may indicate an underlying issue such as inflammation, meniscus injury, or ligament damage.

If your knee repeatedly swells after exercise, especially when accompanied by pain, stiffness, locking, or instability, a proper orthopedic evaluation can help identify the cause.

Listen to your knees. Train smart. Get persistent symptoms evaluated.

HIGH RETURN RATE AFTER ACL RECONSTRUCTION — BUT WHY DON’T SOME ATHLETES GET BACK TO THEIR OLD LEVEL?

ACL reconstruction can help many people return to sport, but returning to any sport is different from returning to the same pre-injury level. Studies show that return depends on rehabilitation, strength, functional performance, psychological readiness and the demands of the sport.

🏃 Return to sport is possible — around 81% returned to some form of sport in one large meta-analysis.
🎯 Pre-injury level is harder — about 65% returned to their previous level in that review.
🏆 Competitive sport takes more — the reported rate was around 55%, highlighting the importance of sport-specific rehabilitation.
💪 Strength matters — recovery should include strength and functional testing, not just waiting for a certain number of months.
🧠 Confidence matters too — psychological readiness can influence return to the pre-injury level.

✔️ Don’t rush back just because the knee feels better.
✔️ Follow a structured rehabilitation programme.
✔️ Work on strength, balance, jumping and sport-specific movements.
✔️ Return-to-sport decisions should be based on multiple criteria—not time alone.

🎥 Watch the full video by Dr. Deepak Chaudhary to understand what it really takes to return successfully after ACL reconstruction.

Knee clicking when you move? Not every click is a cause for concern. 🦵

Painless clicking or popping can often be harmless. But when clicking is accompanied by pain, swelling, locking, or a feeling of instability, it may point to an underlying issue involving the cartilage, meniscus, or other knee structures.

If the clicking is persistent or associated with other symptoms, a proper orthopedic evaluation can help identify the cause and guide appropriate treatment.

Don’t ignore what your knee is trying to tell you.

ACL INJURY? EARLY ACTION CAN HELP PROTECT YOUR KNEE!

An ACL injury should not be ignored just because the pain or swelling starts improving. In some patients, ongoing knee instability after an ACL tear can contribute to additional meniscus or cartilage problems, so early assessment and an appropriate treatment plan are important.

🦵 Get assessed early — clinical examination and appropriate imaging can help identify the ACL injury and associated damage.

⚠️ Don’t ignore instability — repeated “giving way” episodes can put additional stress on the knee.

🩻 Check for associated injuries — ACL injuries can occur along with meniscus or cartilage damage.

🏃 Start the right rehabilitation — restoring knee movement, strength and stability is an important part of recovery.

⏱️ Timing matters in selected patients — when ACL reconstruction is indicated, AAOS recommends early reconstruction because the risk of additional meniscus and cartilage injury begins to increase within about 3 months.

✔️ Avoid returning to pivoting sports before appropriate assessment and rehabilitation.
✔️ Follow a structured physiotherapy program.
✔️ Don’t assume every ACL tear needs surgery—the decision depends on factors such as activity level, knee stability and associated injuries.
✔️ Get medical advice if your knee repeatedly gives way, locks or remains swollen.

🎥 Watch the full video by Dr. Deepak Chaudhary to understand why early attention to an ACL injury can help protect your knee in the long run.

SHOULDER PAIN? SURGERY ISN’T ALWAYS THE FIRST STEP!

For many shoulder problems, treatment can begin conservatively after proper clinical evaluation. Depending on the cause, this may include activity modification, physiotherapy, mobility and strengthening exercises, and appropriate pain-relief measures.

🛑 Modify painful activities — especially repetitive or overhead movements that aggravate symptoms.
🏃 Physiotherapy & exercises — targeted mobility, rotator-cuff and shoulder-blade strengthening can help improve pain and function.
🧊 Pain-relief measures — ice or heat may be used appropriately depending on the condition.
💊 Medicines when appropriate — pain-relieving medicines may be considered under medical guidance.
💉 In selected cases — a corticosteroid injection may provide short-term improvement in pain and function.

✔️ Don’t ignore persistent shoulder pain or weakness.
✔️ Avoid exercising through severe or worsening pain.
✔️ Treatment depends on the actual cause—rotator cuff problems, arthritis, stiffness and injuries may require different approaches.
✔️ If symptoms don’t improve or there is significant weakness after an injury, get evaluated by an orthopaedic specialist.

🎥 Watch the full video by Dr. Deepak Chaudhary to understand the initial conservative treatment options for shoulder pain.

ANKLE SPRAIN: WHEN IS IT MORE THAN JUST A SPRAIN?

An ankle sprain is common, but persistent pain, swelling or repeated ankle rolling shouldn’t always be ignored. Some injuries can lead to ongoing instability or involve other structures around the ankle, requiring specialist evaluation.

🦶 Persistent swelling — swelling that continues longer than expected may need further assessment.
🔄 Repeated sprains — recurrent ankle injuries can contribute to chronic instability.
⚠️ Ongoing pain — pain that doesn’t improve with appropriate recovery should be evaluated.
🏃 Difficulty returning to activity — persistent weakness or instability can affect walking and sports.
🔬 Specialist treatment — selected persistent ankle problems may require imaging, physiotherapy or procedures such as arthroscopy, depending on the underlying cause.

✔️ Give the ankle adequate time to recover.
✔️ Gradually restore movement, strength and balance.
✔️ Don’t ignore repeated ankle sprains or persistent instability.
✔️ Seek medical assessment if pain, swelling or difficulty walking continues or worsens.

🎥 Watch the full video to understand when an ankle sprain may be more than a simple injury and when expert evaluation is needed.
