At Venkateswara Hospital, we offer various treatment options for PCL injuries depending on the severity of the damage to the ligament. For minor or partial ligament damage, treatment method includes splinting, applying ice compression, elevating the knee or taking pain reliever to ease the pain and discomfort caused by the condition. The doctor also advises to limit physical activities that apply constant pressure on the knee area or to use a brace or crutches to protect the knee from external pressure until pain and swelling are reduced. PCL Physical therapy program helps to strengthen and regain the range of knee joint motion.

In more severe ligament damage cases, treatment options include the repair of the damaged ligament to retain the strength and flexibility of the damaged knee joint ligament. We perform minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery for knee joint ligament repair. The procedure uses an arthroscope (with a small camera attached to a long tube) that is inserted into knee joint area to view the extent of damage in the affected knee joint. The surgeon makes few small incisions in the knee and inserts few surgical tools to repair the damaged ligament to reduce the symptoms and to regain the stability and strength of the knee ligament and joint.

After the surgical procedure, PCL physical therapy is provided for faster healing and recovery from the damage caused in the knee joint and to improve the stability and strength of the knee joint. At Venkateswara Hospital, we provide the most advanced and sophisticated diagnostics and treatments techniques for patients with PCL injuries. We brings together a multidisciplinary team of highly qualified and well experienced medical and surgical specialists who offer patients safe and effective treatments and rehabilitative programs to offer the intact continuum of care for the patient.
