Best ACL surgery Specialist in Karimnagar
Have you suffered a knee injury that makes your leg feel unstable? Does your knee give way during simple activities like walking or climbing stairs? A torn Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is a common but serious injury that can affect your daily life and stop you from enjoying sports.
At Shashikanth Ortho Hospital, we understand how a knee injury can impact your confidence and freedom. Our team, led by the renowned Dr. Shashikanth, is dedicated to helping you regain complete knee function through advanced and personalised ACL surgery.
About Karimnagar
Karimnagar is a growing city with improving hospitals, diagnostic centres, and medical support services. The environment here feels more personal because patients get individual attention, unlike big metro hospitals where the rush is high. This makes patients more relaxed and confident during their treatment journey.
In the last few years, Karimnagar has become a strong centre for orthopaedic care — especially for knee pain, spine problems, sports injuries, fractures, ligament tears and trauma cases. People now trust that world-class treatment and expert surgical care can be done right here in their own region.

What is an ACL Tear?
The ACL is a strong band of tissue inside your knee that connects your thigh bone to your shin bone. It is crucial for stability, especially during movements that involve twisting, jumping, or sudden changes in direction. An ACL tear often happens during sports, a sudden fall, or an accident. You might hear a “pop” sound, feel sudden pain, and notice your knee swelling quickly.
Do You Need ACL Surgery in Karimnagar
Not every ACL tear requires surgery. Dr. Shashikanth will carefully assess your condition to create the best treatment plan for you. Surgery is often recommended if:
- You are an athlete or have a very active lifestyle.
- Your knee feels loose and gives way during daily activities.
- You have injured other parts of your knee, like the meniscus.
- You are young and want to maintain a high level of physical activity.
- Physiotherapy and bracing have not provided enough stability.

Our Advanced Approach to ACL Reconstruction
We move beyond traditional open surgery. At our hospital in Karimnagar, we specialise in arthroscopic ACL reconstruction. This is a “keyhole” surgery that offers major benefits:
- Smaller Incisions: Leads to minimal scarring.
- Less Pain: Causes less damage to muscles and tissues.
- Faster Recovery: Allows you to start rehabilitation sooner.
- High Precision: Our surgeons use a tiny camera to see inside the knee clearly, ensuring a highly accurate procedure.
Your ACL Surgery Journey with Us
We believe in guiding you through every step, ensuring you feel confident and cared for.
- Detailed Evaluation: We use advanced MRI scans to get a clear picture of your injury.
- Personalised Planning: Dr. Shashikanth will discuss the best type of graft for you—whether from your own body (autograft) or a donor (allograft).
- Prehabilitation: We may guide you with some gentle exercises to strengthen your knee before the operation.
- The procedure is performed under anaesthesia, so you will be comfortable and pain-free.
- Dr. Shashikanth will make small incisions around your knee.
- Using the arthroscope, he will remove the damaged ACL and replace it with a strong graft.
- The graft is fixed securely to the bone to create your new, stable ligament.
Recovery is a journey, and we are with you all the way. You can typically go home the same day or after a short stay.
- Immediate Care: You will use crutches for a short time. We will manage your pain effectively.
- Physiotherapy: This is the most important part of your recovery! Our expert physiotherapists will design a custom exercise plan to help you regain movement, build strength, and protect your new ligament.
Return to Activity: Most people can return to light activities in a few weeks. Returning to sports may take 9-12 months, ensuring your knee is fully strong and stable.
