Firstly, the doctor will do a physical examination to locate the area of pain and gauge the mobility and strength of the affected area. They will also go over your medical history to see if the injury was caused by an underlying condition such as a previous injury or a disease. In some cases, they may run diagnostic tests like X-rays to assess bone problems or MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) to look at soft tissue. This way, the doctor will get a clear picture of your condition and advise treatment accordingly.

Ample time will be set aside for our doctors to evaluate your clinical problem. Our doctors will go through a thorough history and physical examination to understand your pain. In some cases, further tests such as X-rays, or MRI may be necessary to understand your condition better. Once we have arrived at the diagnosis, we will explain your condition to you and treat your condition with the modalities available. Our goal will be to provide evidence-based care to optimise your recovery. Where surgery is necessary, we will explain why it is needed

This depends on the policies that you have bought. Our staff are experienced with insurance claims and will be able to guide you through the process. In some cases, the process of insurance claims may be cashless

Consultation charges, X-rays, and medications can be claimed up to 85% with a 15% co-payment from patient under CDMP (Chronic Disease Management Programme). However, the clinical diagnoses must fall under a certain list of medical conditions. As we are an orthopaedic specialist clinic, the common diagnoses that can be used to activate CDMP are Osteoarthritis and Osteoporosis. Minor procedures can be claimed through Medisave under Day Surgery.

Not necessarily. Firstly the cause of the knee pain needs to be properly evaluated and the severity assessed. This would be done through clinical examination, bedside ultrasound and possibly MRIs.

If the condition is mild, then you may just need a short course of anti-inflammatory medications or brace, and physiotherapy. Sometimes injections can be done to reduce the symptoms and hasten the recovery. Only in severe cases or conditions that have not improved through the above measures would the patient require surgery.

Knee specialists suggest that when you get a knee injury, take the following precautions immediately:

• Take a break from normal activities and do not put strain on your knee. 
• Use ice on your injured part of the knee. It helps in reducing pain and inflammation.

• Use a compression bandage. It helps prevent fluid buildup in damaged tissues.
• Elevate your leg with some support. It will reduce swelling.

No, not always. Our specialist surgeons in Singapore are dedicated to personalized treatments. Every patient with a different diagnosis may need a different treatment. Sometimes a knee injury can be treated by just taking proper care, physiotherapy and rest. Sometimes your knee injury might need surgery.
