Separate rounds of Interaction were held and a lot of queries regarding Joint replacement and Physiotherapy were resolved.

Speaking on the occasion Dr.Passi said we are also organising free ortho check-up camp till 15th September, 2018.
Giving information regarding Physiotherapy Dr. Passi said Why Exercises are important and how we can save our joints from replacement? As we get older, all organs in our body change with time. Bone mass and density decreases, Joint inflammation and cartilage degeneration often occur due to arthritis. But we can modify our daily lifestyle to keep our joints healthy and painfree.
Thirty minutes of physical activity a day can help individuals feel good and prevent many medical conditions. Even individuals with chronic conditions, such as osteoarthritis and osteoporosis, can benefit from a balanced fitness program. Exercise can help you improve your health and fitness without hurting your joints.
But even after modifying routine lifestyle, patients might continue to have pain and impairment in quality of life. Not all patients having joints pain need joint replacement. There is medical treatment and physiotherapy programme which can change the course of disease. Small / Minor surgeries (osteotomies) can be done which will help avoid / delay joint replacement in future. Some patients if not relieved with all modalities might need joint replacement also.
Aykai Hospital is an institute with world class infrastructure and facilities all required for a safe long lasting joint replacement at an affordable cost. Dr. A. S. Passi said authenticity, honesty, integrity, discipline and human touch are the foundation stones of our joint replacement unit and our team is dedicated to do our best for each patient. Patient motivation and Surgeon’s commitment brings fruitful results for the patient. He has a rich experience in Joint replacement surgeries from Medanta - The medicity, Gurgaon and many patients have benefitted from the efforts of his team.
