Arthroscopy

Arthroscopy involves inserting a thin, tube-like camera into a joint to visualize the inside of the joint. This allows the surgeon to diagnose and treat problems with the joint, such as torn cartilage, loose bodies, and inflamed synovial tissue. Arthroscopy is typically suitable for individuals with joint pain and/or dysfunction caused by injury, arthritis, or other conditions.

Treatment Basis

Arthroscopy is usually performed on an outpatient basis, meaning you can go home the same day. However, in some cases, an overnight stay in the hospital may be necessary.

Preparation and Recovery

Before arthroscopy, your surgeon will give you specific instructions on how to prepare for the surgery. This may include losing weight, quitting smoking, and taking certain medications.

After arthroscopy, you will need to wear a brace or sling for several weeks to support your joint. You will also need to do physical therapy to help you regain range of motion and strength in your joint.

The average recovery time for arthroscopy is 3-6 weeks. During this time, you will need to avoid strenuous activity and follow your surgeon’s instructions carefully.
