Comprehensive care for knee pain, hip pain, joint stiffness, and mobility problems caused by osteoarthritis and other degenerative joint conditions.
Arthritis is one of the most common causes of joint pain and disability. While it cannot be cured, the symptoms can be effectively managed with a combination of lifestyle measures, physiotherapy, medications, injections, and — when required — surgery. Dr. Sachin Sharma takes an individualised approach, tailoring treatment plans to each patient's specific condition, severity, and lifestyle goals.
Osteoarthritis (OA): The most common form, caused by wear and tear of joint cartilage over time. Commonly affects the knees, hips, and hands.
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA): An autoimmune condition causing joint inflammation, pain, and progressive damage. Managed in coordination with a rheumatologist.
Post-traumatic Arthritis: Arthritis developing after a joint injury or fracture.
Avascular Necrosis (AVN): Loss of blood supply to bone leading to joint destruction, commonly affecting the hip and knee.
Lifestyle Modification: Weight management, activity modification, and joint protection strategies to reduce load on affected joints.
Physiotherapy: Targeted exercises to strengthen muscles around the joint, improve flexibility, and reduce pain.
Medications: Analgesics, anti-inflammatory medications, and disease-modifying drugs (for RA) to manage pain and slow progression.
Injections: Corticosteroid injections for pain and inflammation relief. Viscosupplementation (hyaluronic acid injections) to improve joint lubrication in knee osteoarthritis.
Surgical Management: When conservative measures are no longer effective, joint replacement surgery may be recommended to provide lasting pain relief and restore function.
