Hello Syed ji,
Thank you for reaching out to the HexaHealth community.

Since Kidwai Cancer Hospital, Sanjay Gandhi Hospital, and St. John’s are government or charitable institutions, the cost of treatment — including surgeries — is usually heavily subsidised or offered at minimal charges. However, we won’t be able to help with the exact cost details for treatments in these hospitals, as they operate under different guidelines than private hospitals and may vary case by case.

If at any point you are exploring options in private hospitals or need assistance with treatment planning, second opinions, or cost estimates in such settings, the HexaHealth team is always here to help you.

Wishing you strength and good health ahead. 🙏

Namaskar Syed Abbas ji,

Aapne GCT (Giant Cell Tumor) ke baare mein jo bataya, usse related aapki chinta hum samajh sakte hain. GCT ek tarah ka bone tumour hota hai, jo zyadatar ghutne ke neeche (jaise tibia ya femur) develop hota hai.

Surgery kyun zaroori hoti hai?

GCT generally non-cancerous hota hai, lekin yeh aggressive tareeke se badh sakta hai aur bone ko weak kar sakta hai. Isliye doctors aksar surgery ki salah dete hain jisme tumour ko remove karke bone graft ya metal implant ka use kiya jata hai.

Surgery ki cost kya ho sakti hai?

Cost kai factors par depend karti hai jaise:

• Hospital ka type (Government, Private ya Trust)

• Surgery kitni complex hai

• Implant ya bone graft ka requirement

• Admission aur recovery ka duration

• Aapka health insurance cover karta hai ya nahi

• Medical loan ya EMI options available hain ya nahi

🔹 Aam taur par is surgery ki cost ₹80,000 se start ho sakti hai.
👉 Lekin exact cost sirf doctor ki consultation aur proper examination ke baad hi batayi ja sakti hai.

✅ HexaHealth aapke liye Bangalore ke top surgeons aur hospitals se consultation fix karwa sakta hai.
✅ Agar aapke paas health insurance hai, to hum aapka cashless claim process karne mein bhi madad karte hain.
✅ Humare paas 0% interest wali medical finance facility bhi hai, jisse aap apna kharcha aasan monthly EMIs mein de sakte hain.

Namaste Mishra ji,

Aapki mataji ko joint pain aur diabetes dono ki dikkat hai, aur doctor ne injection ya joint replacement surgery ka suggestion diya hai — aapka concern bilkul sahi hai.

Aapko kya jankari deni chahiye?

🔹 Blood sugar control:

• Humein unka latest Fasting/Postprandial Blood Glucose aur HbA1c report dekhna hoga

• Saath hi, woh kaunsi diabetic medicines ya insulin le rahi hain, yeh bhi batayein

🔹 Dusre health issues:

• Kya unhe high BP, heart, kidney ya thyroid ki koi aur medical condition bhi hai?

Injection vs. Joint Replacement Surgery

• Kai cases mein viscosupplement injection (gel injection in joint) ya steroid injection se temporary relief milta hai

• Agar arthritis ya joint damage severe hai, to Total Joint Replacement Surgery ka option consider kiya jaata hai

Surgery for Diabetic Patients

Joint replacement surgery diabetic patients mein bhi safely ki ja sakti hai, agar unka blood glucose control mein ho

• Proper planning aur anaesthesia evaluation ke saath

• Antibiotic cover aur sugar control ke liye specialist ka involvement hota hai

Hamara Suggestion

• Pehle ek orthopaedic specialist se second opinion lijiye
• Saath hi ek diabetologist/endocrinologist se blood sugar manage karwana hoga
• Aapke current X-ray / MRI reports, blood sugar, and overall health evaluation ke basis par best treatment plan suggest hoga

Advancement in Joint Replacement Surgery

• Minimally invasive techniques – kam cut aur jaldi recovery

• Faster mobilisation – patients next day se hi support ke saath chalna shuru kar lete hain

• Long-lasting implants – 15-20 saal tak tikne wale

• Computer-assisted surgery – better precision and alignment

HexaHealth ke through aapko verified specialist doctors, hospital comparison, aur treatment guidance milega.
Hum aapki reports dekh kar aapke liye best options suggest karne mein madad karenge – with or without private insurance.

Hello Subhajit ji,

Aapka 3 saal purana hip joint fracture ka dard abhi tak chal raha hai, is baat ko lightly nahi lena chahiye.

Sabse pehle yeh jaanna zaroori hai ki 3 saal pehle aapka kis tareeke se treatment hua tha — kya surgery hui thi ya plaster/bed rest se ilaaj hua tha?

Abhi ke liye, ek orthopaedic doctor aapka clinical examination karega — jismein pain points dekhe jayenge. Uske baad, wo aapko recommend kar sakte hain X-ray ya MRI scan – jisse yeh samajh aaye ki bone, joint ya surrounding muscles ka status kya hai.

Iske basis par treatment plan decide hoga – jaise physiotherapy, pain management, ya agar zarurat ho to revision surgery bhi suggest ho sakti hai.

Jab tak complete diagnosis nahi hota, bhaari kaam, running aur zyada bending avoid karein.

Daily Precautions & Self-Care Tips

1. Weight-bearing se bachein : Zyada der khade rehna, bhaagna, ya heavy kaam karne se bachna chahiye. Walking stick ka sahara le sakte hain.
2. Gentle movement karein: Physiotherapist ke guidance mein halka movement aur stretching karein taaki joint stiff na ho.
3. Low sitting avoid karein: Toilet ya farsh par baithna avoid karein. Western toilet aur firm chair ka use karein.
4. Hot & cold pack ka use: Ice pack se sujan kam hoti hai (15 mins), Warm compress se stiffness relief milta hai
5. Weight management: Agar wajan zyada hai to hip pe pressure badhta hai. Sahi diet aur doctor-guided exercise follow karein.
6. Painkillers bina doctor ke na lein: Self-medication se asli problem chhup jaati hai. Doctor ke advice se hi dawai lein.
7. Supportive footwear pehnein: Flat ya ghise hue slippers ki jagah cushioned shoes pehnein.
8. Proper mattress use karein: Bahut soft bed ya farsh pe mat soyen. Firm mattress pe, pichwade ke neeche takiya rakh kar soyen.

Hi Rishi,

Sorry to hear about your injury.

A dislocated finger—especially from trauma like playing cricket—requires prompt care to avoid long-term stiffness or misalignment.

Immediate Measures You Should Take

1. Immobilize the finger – Use a splint or buddy tape it to the adjacent finger.

2. Apply ice – Helps reduce swelling and pain.

3. Avoid forcing it back – Don’t try to realign it yourself, as improper handling can worsen ligament damage.

4. Keep the hand elevated to reduce swelling.

Cost-Effective Treatment

The cost of treatment can vary depending on:

• Whether reduction (repositioning) is done manually

• If an X-ray or minor surgical intervention is needed

• If splinting and follow-up physiotherapy are required

Take care, and don’t delay treatment—early intervention ensures the best recovery!

Namaste Nagma ji,

Normal fracture healing mein 6-8 weeks lagte hain, lekin agar ab tak improvement nahi hua, toh kuch important cheezein check karna zaroori hai.

🩺 Sabse pehle yeh batayein:

• Kya fracture ke baad koi X-ray ya CT scan karwaya gaya tha?
• Kya unka plaster, plate/screw fixation ya koi aur treatment hua tha?
• Kya unhe diabetes ya osteoporosis jaisi koi health condition hai?

🔍 Ab kya karna chahiye:

• 2 mahine baad bhi agar bone heal nahi hui hai, toh ho sakta hai yeh delayed union ya non-union fracture ho.
• Iske liye ek orthopaedic specialist se consult karna zaroori hai. Doctor naya X-ray/scan karke dekhte hain ki fracture kahan atka hai aur kya additional treatment chahiye.

💡 Treatment options may include:

• Re-surgery or fixation (agar needed ho)
• Nutritional support: Calcium, Vitamin D, Protein
• Physiotherapy to avoid stiffness (only after doctor’s clearance)

Dear Nihal,

Recurrent dislocation occurs when a joint (commonly the shoulder or knee) repeatedly slips out of place due to weakened ligaments, previous injury, or structural abnormalities.

Treatment Plan

1. Initial Management:

• Rest and immobilization (brace/sling)

• Physical therapy to strengthen muscles and improve stability

• Lifestyle modifications to avoid high-risk activities

        2. Surgical Intervention (if required):

• Arthroscopic Stabilization (Minimally Invasive): Tightens ligaments and repairs any damage.

• Open Surgery (Capsular Shift/Latarjet Procedure): Recommended for severe cases with bone loss or instability.

Advantages of Arthroscopy

• Minimally invasive: Small incisions, less scarring

• Faster recovery: Reduced hospital stay and quicker return to daily activities

• Less pain and complications: Compared to open surgery

• Precise repair: Direct visualization for accurate ligament tightening

Precautions

• Avoid excessive strain on the affected joint.

• Get physiotherapy as advised.

• Use supportive braces if needed.

• Maintain a healthy weight to reduce joint stress.

Estimated Cost

• Surgical Procedure (Arthroscopy/Open Surgery): Starts from 80000/- and depends on the hospital and doctor chosen, the treatment technique, the financing options if available etc.

Dear Harsharan Kaur Ji,

Thank you for reaching out. We understand your concerns regarding knee pain, frozen shoulder, shivering hands, and sensations in your face. Given that you have well-controlled diabetes and blood pressure, it is essential to evaluate whether these symptoms are related to nerve health, circulation, or any underlying musculoskeletal condition.

To guide you better, could you please share:

• Your age
• The duration of these symptoms
• Any recent test reports (e.g., blood sugar levels, nerve conduction studies, or vitamin levels)
• The current medications you are taking

Shivering hands, neck, and shoulder discomfort can sometimes be linked to neurological issues, vitamin deficiencies (such as B12), or medication side effects. Additionally, stress and anxiety can contribute to these symptoms, so it is important to stay calm and avoid unnecessary stress.

We recommend consulting a specialist, such as a neurologist or orthopaedic doctor, for a thorough evaluation. Meanwhile, gentle exercises, posture correction, maintaining good hydration and a healthy diet may help alleviate some discomfort.

Hello Prema Ji,

Knee locking and knee pain can happen due to several reasons, such as:

🔹 Meniscus Tear – A torn cartilage in the knee can get stuck, causing pain and difficulty in movement.
🔹 Ligament Injury – Damage to ligaments, such as ACL injuries, can lead to instability and locking.
🔹 Osteoarthritis – Wear and tear of knee joints can cause stiffness, pain, and locking, especially in older adults.

What You Can Do Now:

✅ Rest & Avoid Strain – Try not to put excess pressure on the knee.
✅ Apply Ice – This helps reduce swelling and pain. Use an ice pack for 15-20 minutes at a time.
✅ Gentle Knee Movements – If possible, try slow, controlled bending and straightening of the knee.
✅ Pain Relief Medication – Over-the-counter pain relievers like paracetamol or ibuprofen may help, but consult a doctor before use.
✅ Physiotherapy – Strengthening exercises guided by a physiotherapist can help in many cases.

Since you are unable to walk properly, we highly recommend seeing an orthopaedic doctor as soon as possible. An X-ray or MRI may be needed to diagnose the exact cause of the problem and provide the right treatment.

Please take care, and let us know if you need more guidance!

Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Hello Vijay Ji,

To provide the best advice, we need a little more information:

1️⃣ How long have you had the pain? (Days, weeks, or months?)
2️⃣ Where exactly is the pain? (Lower back, upper back, or middle back?)
3️⃣ Is the pain constant, or does it come and go?
4️⃣ Did the pain start after lifting something heavy or an injury?
5️⃣ Do you feel numbness, tingling, or weakness in your legs?
6️⃣ Does the pain worsen with movement or while resting?
7️⃣ Do you have any existing medical conditions like arthritis, osteoporosis, or diabetes?

Precautions & Self-Care Tips:

✅ Rest, but avoid complete bed rest – Too much inactivity can worsen back pain.
✅ Apply Ice or Heat – Ice packs (first 48 hours) can reduce inflammation; heat (after 48 hours) helps relax muscles.
✅ Maintain Good Posture – Sit and stand straight to avoid straining your back.
✅ Gentle Stretching & Walking – Helps improve flexibility and reduce stiffness.
✅ Avoid Heavy Lifting – If necessary, bend your knees and keep your back straight.
✅ Use a Supportive Mattress – A firm or orthopaedic mattress can help relieve pain.

When to See a Doctor?

🚩 If pain lasts more than 2 weeks or worsens
🚩 If you experience numbness, tingling, or weakness in your legs
🚩 If pain is severe at night or wakes you up
🚩 If you have fever, weight loss, or difficulty controlling urine/stool

If your pain is mild to moderate, physical therapy, posture correction, and simple pain relievers may help. However, if your pain is persistent or severe, a doctor's evaluation, X-ray, or MRI may be needed to check for issues like a herniated disc or arthritis.

Please seek medical attention as soon as possible to prevent symptoms from worsening.

Hello Suraj,

ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) injury can be treated, and the right approach depends on the severity of the tear and your activity level.

Treatment Options:

👉 Non-Surgical Treatment: If the tear is partial or if you have a low activity level, physiotherapy, bracing, and strengthening exercises may help stabilize the knee.

👉 Surgical Treatment: If the ACL is completely torn and you want to return to an active lifestyle (sports, heavy work, etc.), ACL reconstruction surgery is usually recommended.

With advancements like keyhole (minimally invasive) surgery, the procedure involves smaller cuts, less pain, and faster healing. The use of autografts or allografts provides better stability and long-term success. Improved surgical techniques also help in faster recovery and reduce the risk of re-injury, allowing patients to return to an active lifestyle within 6-9 months.

How HexaHealth Can Help?
