View detailsArthroscopy
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that allows doctors to examine the inside of a joint. A tiny viewing instrument called an arthroscope is used to visualize the joint surfaces, the tough tissue covering the joint cartilage, and surrounding soft tissues such as ligaments. Arthroscopy can be used to diagnose joint problems, determine if joint repair surgery is needed, address loose bodies or remove foreign objects, and monitor disease progression or treatment effectiveness. Arthroscopy is most commonly performed on the knee, shoulder, and ankle, but can also be used for the hip, elbow, and wrist. It offers advantages such as small incisions, minimal trauma, less scarring, faster recovery, and fewer complications. Common Questions: Q: How long after arthroscopic surgery can I return to work? A: The time it takes to return to work after arthroscopic surgery depends directly on the affected joint, the extent of the injury, and the type of surgery performed. The specific timeline will be determined based on the patient's recovery. If it's a simple diagnostic arthroscopy, patients can generally return to work about one month after the procedure. If the pathology is more severe and involves ligament reconstruction or repair via arthroscopy, approximately three months of rest are usually required. For more extensive trauma with slower recovery, about six months of rest may be needed, and returning to work should be considered only after full joint function has been restored.

Ischial tuberosity bursitis refers to a benign lump formed by congestion, edema, and exudation of the ischial bursa due to various reasons. This condition is common in thin, middle-aged and elderly individuals who sit for prolonged periods. This condition is usually asymptomatic.
