Frequently Asked Questions

We’ve answered some of the most common questions patients have before visiting Dr. Sanjay B. Londhe. If you don’t find your question here, feel free to contact us.

When should I consult an orthopaedic surgeon?

You should see an orthopaedic specialist if you experience persistent joint pain, stiffness, reduced mobility, sports injuries, or difficulty in performing daily activities. Early consultation helps prevent further damage and ensures timely treatment.

No. Many orthopaedic conditions can be managed with medication, physiotherapy, injections, or lifestyle modifications. Surgery is recommended only when non-surgical methods fail to provide relief or if the joint is severely damaged.

Most patients begin walking with support within 24–48 hours of surgery. Complete recovery may take 6–12 weeks, depending on the individual’s age, overall health, and adherence to physiotherapy.

Arthroscopy is minimally invasive, meaning smaller cuts, faster healing, less pain, and a quicker return to daily activities. However, suitability depends on the condition being treated, which will be evaluated during consultation.

Bring previous X-rays, MRI scans, medical reports, and a list of current medications. Be ready to discuss your symptoms, lifestyle, and treatment goals so that Dr. Londhe can recommend the best personalised care plan.
