Knee Replacement Total Knee Replacement (TKR): Entire knee joint is replaced — both sides of the joint and the kneecap. Partial Knee Replacement (PKR): Only one part (inner, outer, or kneecap area) of the knee is replaced. Revision Knee Replacement: Done if the first knee implant wears out or fails. 2. Hip Replacement 3. ⁠Total Hip Replacement (THR): Both the ball (femoral head) and socket (acetabulum) are replaced. Partial Hip Replacement (Hemiarthroplasty): Only the ball of the hip joint is replaced. Hip Resurfacing: Bone is preserved by capping the ball instead of replacing it. Revision Hip Replacement: Second surgery if the first implant fails. 3. Shoulder Replacement Total Shoulder Replacement: Both the ball (humeral head) and socket (glenoid) are replaced. Partial Shoulder Replacement (Hemiarthroplasty): Only the ball part is replaced. Reverse Shoulder Replacement: Used in cases of rotator cuff damage or failed previous surgeries — ball and socket positions are reversed. 4. Elbow Replacement Replaces the damaged parts of the elbow joint with metal and plastic components. Mostly done for rheumatoid arthritis or complex fractures. 5.

Signs of joint inflammation that come and go, or stay constantly. 4. Joint Deformity Visible changes like bowed legs, uneven leg length, or misalignment of the joint. The joint may appear “sunken,” twisted, or bulged. 5. Dependence on Painkillers or Walking Aids Needing pain medicines daily just to function. Using a walker, cane, or crutches regularly due to pain or weakness. 6. X-ray or MRI Shows Severe Damage Imaging shows bone-on-bone contact, joint space narrowing, cartilage loss, or joint collapse. Bone spurs, cysts, or joint erosion. 7. Failed Conservative Treatments No long-term relief from: Physiotherapy Joint injections Weight loss and lifestyle changes 8. Declining Quality of Life You avoid walking, traveling, or socializing because of joint pain. Pain interferes with work, hobbies, or mental health. ADVANTAGES OF JOINT REPLACEMENT SURGERY: 1.Pain Relief Significantly reduces or completely eliminates chronic joint pain. 2.Improved Mobility and Function Restores movement, making walking, climbing stairs, or daily tasks easier. 3.Better Quality of Life Helps you return to normal activities, work, and hobbies with greater independence. 4.

Upper Limb Fractures

OVERVIEW Fractures (Broken Bones) of the Shoulder, Elbow and Wrist are common from both minor and major accidents. These are incapacitating in the short term as they commonly require the use of a cast or brace and restrict the use of the affected limb. DESCRIPTION Upper limb fractures occur from either direct trauma or indirectly from forces applied to the limb (eg twisting injuries). The type of fracture depends on the size and direction of the injury to the limb. Low energy injuries (such as falls from a standing height), usually result in less complex fracture patterns and less soft tissue injury. Typical symptoms of a fracture include: • Pain • Swelling • Deformity • Difficulty lifting things Lower energy injuries can be missed and may be passed off as ‘sprains’ or ‘strains’. If you have had an injury that is not responding to treatment, it is advisable to see your doctor and obtain X-Rays to rule out a fracture. Higher energy injuries (such as motorcycle and car crashes) typically fracture bones in multiple places, into smaller pieces, and commonly disrupt the soft tissues resulting in large amounts of bruising and swelling. These can be challenging to treat and frequently require surgery to restore the bones to their anatomical position to make healing quicker and your function better in the long term. TREATMENT The treatment of lower limb fractures requires careful tailoring to the individual patients demands and the type of fracture sustained. Non-operative treatment of upper limb fractures may involve: • Braces or Slings • Plaster Casts • Activity Restriction • Physiotherapy Dr. Jain always encourages non-operative treatment whenever possible, however, many fractures do much better with surgical intervention as surgery can speed up recovery and improve the short and long term outcome. As there many different types of upper limb fractures, there are a large range of surgical options that can be used, these can include: • Plates + screws • Wires • Rods/Nails • External Fixators Sometimes a combination of these is used, and Dr. Jain will discuss the surgical plan with you pre-operatively. He uses the latest technology in orthopedic trauma implants to give you the best outcome possible. After surgery, Dr. Jain will discuss your operation as well as plan your rehab in line with your goals and expectations. He uses a highly qualified team of physiotherapists and rehabilitation specialists to get you back to your activities as quickly as possible. Dr. Jain has extensive experience treating fractures, he has completed Training at Cascais Hospital in Lisbon (Portugal, Europe) with world recognized leaders in Orthopedic Trauma Surgery, and has worked as an Orthopedic Joint Replacement & Trauma Consultant at Tata Hospitals. He routinely attends conferences and visits trauma centers worldwide to refine his skills and stay on top of the most recent advances in trauma surgery.
