Comprehensive Care & Advanced Treatments at KS Ortho Care
Osteoarthritis is one of the most common causes of knee pain and joint stiffness, especially in middle-aged and older adults. At KS Ortho Care, we specialize in diagnosing and treating knee osteoarthritis using advanced technology, personalized treatment plans, and expert care to help you regain mobility and improve your quality of life.
Our goal is to relieve pain, restore knee function, and prevent further joint damage through a combination of non-surgical and surgical treatment options tailored to your needs.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint condition where the protective cartilage that cushions the bones in the knee wears down over time. As the cartilage deteriorates, bones may rub against each other, causing pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced flexibility.
Although commonly seen in older adults, younger patients with previous knee injuries or overuse problems can also develop osteoarthritis.
Age-related degeneration of knee cartilage
Previous sports injuries or fractures
Obesity leading to excessive joint stress
Family history of osteoarthritis
Repetitive strain from high-impact activities
Poor posture or abnormal knee alignment
If you experience any of the following, you may have knee osteoarthritis:
Persistent knee pain during activity or rest
Swelling and tenderness around the joint
Stiffness, especially in the morning or after inactivity
A grating, popping, or cracking sound while moving
Limited range of motion and difficulty bending the knee
Weakness or a sensation of the knee “giving way”
Our specialists perform a detailed evaluation using advanced diagnostic techniques to accurately identify osteoarthritis:
Physical Examination – Assessing swelling, tenderness, and flexibility
X-Rays – Detecting cartilage loss and bone changes
MRI Scans – Evaluating cartilage thickness and ligament damage
Blood Tests – To rule out inflammatory arthritis
Arthroscopy – For complex cases requiring direct visualization
1. Non-Surgical Treatments (Preferred for early to moderate osteoarthritis)
Lifestyle Modifications – Reducing knee strain through activity adjustments
Pain Relief Medications – Anti-inflammatories to control discomfort
Physiotherapy & Strengthening Exercises – To improve joint stability
Bracing & Supportive Devices – For better weight distribution and alignment
Viscosupplementation Therapy (Hyaluronic Acid Injections) – Enhances joint lubrication
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy – Promotes cartilage healing and reduces inflammation
2. Surgical Treatments (For advanced osteoarthritis)
When conservative management is ineffective, our experts perform minimally invasive procedures such as:
Arthroscopic Debridement – Removing damaged cartilage and tissues
Cartilage Restoration Surgeries – Repairing or regenerating worn-out cartilage
High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO) – Realigning the knee joint to relieve stress on damaged areas
Partial Knee Replacement – For localized osteoarthritis
Total Knee Replacement – For severe cases involving complete cartilage loss
Post-treatment rehabilitation plays a vital role in successful recovery. Our customized programs focus on:
Restoring strength, flexibility, and balance
Reducing stiffness and improving mobility
Training for safe return to daily activities
Preventing future joint degeneration
Experienced orthopedic surgeons specializing in knee care
Advanced diagnostic and arthroscopic techniques
Personalized treatment plans tailored to your condition
Comprehensive rehabilitation and physiotherapy support
Proven success in managing early and advanced osteoarthritis
