Dr. Anurag Agarwal provides evaluation and personalised treatment planning for patients with significant knee, hip and other joint-related problems in Prayagraj.
An orthopaedic doctor specialises in conditions affecting the bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons and other structures involved in movement.
Patients may consult an orthopaedic specialist for:
You should consider an orthopaedic consultation if you experience:
Knee pain can result from arthritis, sports injuries, ligament problems, meniscus injuries, trauma or other joint-related conditions. Persistent knee pain should be evaluated when it starts affecting walking, stairs or everyday activities
Joint pain may occur because of arthritis, injury, inflammation, degeneration or other underlying conditions. A proper evaluation can help determine the cause and appropriate treatment approach.
Arthritis can cause pain, stiffness, swelling and reduced joint movement. Depending on the type and severity, treatment may include lifestyle changes, medication, physiotherapy, injections or surgical options in selected cases.
Sports and recreational activities can sometimes result in ligament injuries, ACL injuries, meniscus problems, muscle injuries or other joint trauma. Early assessment can help understand the severity of an injury and guide appropriate treatment and rehabilitation.
Fractures can occur after falls, accidents, sports injuries or other traumatic events. Orthopaedic assessment helps determine the location, type and severity of the injury and the appropriate treatment approach.
Diagnosis depends on the patient’s symptoms and suspected condition.
An orthopaedic evaluation may include:
The doctor discusses your symptoms, previous injuries, duration of pain, activity level and relevant medical history.
The affected joint or body part may be examined for pain, swelling, movement, stability and functional limitations.
Depending on the clinical situation, appropriate imaging or other investigations may be recommended.
The findings are assessed to understand the condition and discuss suitable treatment options.
Treatment depends on the condition, severity of symptoms, patient’s functional requirements and clinical assessment.
Depending on the case, treatment may include:
The treatment plan should always be individualised rather than based only on symptoms or age.
No. Not every knee or joint problem requires surgery.
Many orthopaedic conditions can initially be managed with appropriate non-surgical treatment depending on the diagnosis.
Surgery may be considered when there is significant structural damage, persistent symptoms, functional limitation or when appropriate non-surgical treatment does not provide adequate relief.
A clinical assessment is necessary before deciding whether surgery is appropriate.
Patients looking for an orthopaedic doctor in Prayagraj may seek evaluation for a wide range of bone, joint, muscle and ligament-related conditions.

Patients seeking orthopaedic care can benefit from:
An orthopaedic doctor evaluates and treats conditions affecting bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons and other structures involved in movement.
You should consider an evaluation if knee pain persists, affects walking or daily activities, or is associated with swelling, stiffness, instability or an injury
An orthopaedic doctor may evaluate conditions such as arthritis, knee pain, joint problems, sports injuries, ligament injuries, fractures and other musculoskeletal conditions.
Depending on the underlying cause, many joint problems may initially be managed through non-surgical approaches. The appropriate treatment depends on the individual diagnosis.
Joint replacement may be considered when significant joint damage causes persistent pain and reduced mobility, particularly when appropriate non-surgical treatment is no longer providing sufficient relief.
No. Knee pain can have several possible causes, including arthritis, ligament injuries, meniscus problems, trauma and sports injuries
If an injury causes significant pain, swelling, instability, difficulty walking or restricted movement, an orthopaedic evaluation can help determine the nature and severity of the injury.
Not necessarily. Treatment depends on the fracture’s location, type, severity, alignment and other patient-specific factors. Some fractures can be managed without surgery, while others may require surgical treatment
The consultation generally involves discussing symptoms and medical history, performing a physical examination and, when required, reviewing or recommending appropriate investigations before developing a treatment plan.
