Orthopaedic surgeons Dr. Manideep Reddy and Dr. Deepak of Medicover Hospitals, Nizamabad, highlighted the importance of joint health and raised public awareness about arthritis on the occasion of World Arthritis Day. They noted that factors such as ageing, excess body weight and certain joint disorders can contribute to the development of joint problems.

Dr. Manideep Reddy advised that timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment can help reduce pain and improve joint function, enabling patients to maintain a better quality of life. Dr. Deepak stressed the importance of regular, appropriate exercise, maintaining a healthy body weight, following a balanced diet and adhering to medical advice to protect joint health. He urged people experiencing persistent joint pain to consult an orthopedic specialist rather than resorting to self-medication.

As part of the awareness initiative, Medicover Hospitals, Nizamabad announced that free doctor consultations and X-ray screening will be available on Monday, October 12. The doctors called upon the public to improve their awareness of joint health, adopt a healthy lifestyle and seek timely medical attention to identify joint-related problems at an early stage and receive appropriate treatment.
