Understanding Arthroscopy Surgery
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat joint problems. During the procedure, a small camera (arthroscope) is inserted into the joint through a tiny incision, allowing the surgeon to view the internal structures on a monitor. This technique helps in identifying issues such as cartilage damage, ligament tears, and joint inflammation, and provides the means to perform corrective procedures with minimal disruption to surrounding tissues.
Symptoms Indicating the Need for Arthroscopy Surgery
- Persistent Joint Pain: Chronic pain that doesn’t improve with conservative treatments.
- Swelling and Stiffness: Ongoing swelling and stiffness in the affected joint.
- Limited Range of Motion: Difficulty moving the joint fully or experiencing reduced flexibility.
- Joint Locking or Catching: Sensation of the joint locking up or catching during movement.
- Failed Conservative Treatments: Lack of improvement after non-surgical interventions such as physical therapy or medication.
