Seniors Hub Dwarka conducts webinar on knee pain

Dwarka: Seniors Hub Dwarka on Friday conducted a webinar – Introduction & Discussion on Knee Pain. Dr Debashish Chanda was the lead speaker. 

Dr Debashish is a leading Orthopaedic with CK Birla Hospital, Gurgaon. He has been practising for many years now.

Dr Debashish explained that with the age the knee pain and reduction of grease/gel in knees is inevitable but can be taken care by regular walks, calcium and protein rich diets, weight control, having vitamins D and B 12 as recommended by doctors. 

He further emphasised that even during the current pandemic period and ensuing monsoon season, one should not be complacent but carry on with indoor exercises.

He said that knee replacement or operation is a last resort and he does not recommend emergency operation but elective one.  

The discussion lasted for about one hour with a very interactive question answer session.
