Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: I've had knee pain for months. Do I need surgery, or is there another option?

Not always. Many patients start with physio, medicine, and simple life changes. Surgery is used only when joint damage is severe or other care stops working. Dr. Tuteja checks the damage first and suggests surgery only when it is the best next step.

Q2: How do I know if my injury is serious enough to see an orthopedic doctor?

See a doctor if swelling does not go down, pain limits movement, a joint feels weak or unstable, or pain lasts more than a few weeks. Waiting too long can turn a small issue into a bigger one.

Q3: I'm nervous about joint replacement surgery. What should I expect?

That is normal. Dr. Tuteja explains the full process before surgery, including what happens during the operation and what recovery looks like week by week. Most patients can move with support within a day or two.

Q4: Can sports injuries heal on their own without seeing a doctor?

Minor strains sometimes heal on their own. But ligament tears, dislocations, and repeated injuries usually need a clear diagnosis and a recovery plan. Ignoring them can make the same injury come back or get worse.

Q5: How long does recovery take after a fracture?

It depends on the bone, the size of the break, and your age and health. Dr. Tuteja gives a clear recovery time after he checks the fracture and shares a rehab plan to help you regain strength and movement safely.

Q6: Does Dr. Tuteja treat elderly patients with arthritis?

Yes. Arthritis and joint wear in older adults are a regular part of his work. Care is based on age, activity level, and overall health, and may include pain care, physio, or joint replacement.

Q7: Is emergency orthopedic care available?

Yes. For fractures, dislocations, and sudden injuries that need quick care, timely evaluation and treatment are available to help prevent problems and support faster healing.
