Physical activities or lifestyle habits that involve frequent use of the shoulder joint can contribute to the development of shoulder impingement.

Shoulder impingement, or swimmer’s shoulder, occurs when the top outer edge of the shoulder blade rubs against the rotator cuff, resulting in pain and reduced mobility of the shoulder joint.

Treatment in the form of prescribed anti-inflammatory medications and corticosteroid joint injections helps reduce pain and inflammation in the shoulder joint, and physiotherapy helps improve flexibility and stability of the shoulder joint.

In cases of severe shoulder impingement or where conservative treatments fail to suffice, surgery may be recommended.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is an experienced orthopaedic surgeon with extensive experience in treating shoulder impingement. Seek treatment advice from Dr Seng if you have been experiencing persistent shoulder pain.

Responsible for providing stability and support to the knee, the meniscus is a small C-shaped shock-absorbing cartilage in the knee joint.

When subjected to the forceful twisting of the knee in contact sports or degeneration, this can cause damage to the meniscus, leading to a torn knee meniscus.

Pain relief medications and corticosteroid injections can help reduce pain and swelling in the knee; physiotherapy can also help alleviate symptoms and support recovery.

Should conservative treatments not suffice or the tear is severe, knee cartilage repair may be performed to repair or remove the damaged meniscus to preserve healthy meniscus tissue and restore function to the knee joint.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is an orthopaedic surgeon with vast experience in treating knee meniscus tears. Schedule a consultation with Dr Seng for effective treatment if you are experiencing symptoms of an knee meniscus tear.

Should you feel persistent, dull or aching pain upon sustaining a direct impact to your ankle joint, damage to the ankle cartilage may have occurred.

Apart from persistent joint pain, you may also experience stiffness, weakness and swelling, which can limit mobility of the ankle joint.

Depending on the severity of damage, treatments for ankle cartilage injury include pain medications and casting; ankle cartilage repair may be recommended for cases of severe cartilage damage.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is a foot and ankle surgeon experienced in treating ankle cartilage injuries. Book an appointment with Dr Seng for proper assessment and treatment of your ankle cartilage injury.

Characterised by swelling, bruising, tenderness, and a visible knee deformity, knee fractures refer to any break in the femur, tibia or kneecap.

Treatment for mild to moderate cases of knee fractures involves the use of assistive devices, physiotherapy to improve mobility, range of motion and strengthen leg muscles, as well as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications to reduce pain and swelling.

For those with a displaced fracture or unstable knee joint, surgery may be done where bone fragments will first be repositioned into their proper alignments and held together with special screws and metal plates to ensure proper healing.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is an orthopaedic surgeon experienced in treating fractures involving the knee. Consult with Dr Seng if a knee fracture is suspected.

Tearing of the rotator cuff, whether partial or complete, can stem from a combination of age-related degeneration and repetitive overhead activity.

A torn rotator cuff causes pain, weakness and limited shoulder function, making it difficult for one to perform everyday tasks, such as reaching overhead and lifting objects.

While conservative treatments like physiotherapy and medications can help relieve pain and improve shoulder function, surgical repair of the rotator cuff restores shoulder function and flexibility by reattaching the torn tendon to the bone using sutures or anchors.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is an experienced orthopaedic surgeon well-versed in the surgical repair of the rotator cuff. Schedule an appointment with Dr Seng for prompt diagnosis and treatment.

Bunions are bony bumps that form at the base of the big toe, usually a manifestation of a change in the alignment and structure of the foot.

While bunions may be hereditary, wearing tight footwear, being obese, or underlying medical conditions can also make one more susceptible to developing a bunion.

Once formed, bunions will not resolve on their own and tend to worsen over time, which can make walking difficult and eventually cause deformities of the 2nd and 3rd toes.

Surgery remains the most definitive way of correcting bunions, where the bone, ligaments and tendons are realigned to move the big toe back to its rightful position.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is a foot and ankle surgeon skilled in bunion correction. Reach out for prompt assessment with Dr Seng if you find yourself at risk of developing bunions.

As one of the main ligaments in the knee, the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is responsible for the movement and rotational stability of the knee joint.

Any direct impact to the knee or pivoting injury sustained during sports can cause damage to the ACL, resulting in injuries of varying severity, including minor sprains, partial or complete tears.

For cases of partial ACL tear and minimal instability, physiotherapy and rehabilitation can help strengthen the calf muscles, hamstrings and quadriceps, leading to increased mobility, proprioception and stability of the knee.

For more serious cases of partially or completely torn ACL, surgical reconstruction via minimally invasive arthroscopic approach is recommended. This involves replacing the torn ACL with a tendon graft to help alleviate symptoms and restore joint stability.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is an orthopaedic surgeon experienced in treating ACL injuries and in minimally invasive surgeries to reconstruct knee ligament injuries. Book a consultation with Dr Seng today if you are experiencing symptoms of an ACL injury.

Stabbing pain in the heel upon waking up in the morning or after prolonged sitting is characteristic of 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀, one of the most common causes of heel pain.

Plantar fasciitis is the inflammation of the plantar fascia – the thick band of tissue that connects the heel to the toes.

Inflammation of the plantar fascia is typically a result of overexertion of the tissue, causing microtears that result in degeneration and inflammation.

Most cases of plantar fasciitis can be treated with non-surgical options like physiotherapy, anti-inflammatory and pain relief medications to relieve symptoms. In severe cases, steroid injections, extracorporeal shock wave therapy or minimally invasive surgery may be required.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is a foot and ankle surgeon with extensive experience treating plantar fasciitis. Schedule a consultation with Dr Seng if you are a high-risk individual or have been experiencing persistent heel pain for over three months.

When bones of the knee pop out of place, either completely or partially, it is known as a 𝗸𝗻𝗲𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

A dislocated knee is usually caused by an impact injury (eg hard falls, accidents) or through sports, which can result in knee pain, stiffness and difficulty bearing weight. One may also notice that the kneecap slips off to the side and experience creaking sound when moving the joint.

Treatment for knee dislocation, especially in cases where the knee joint is unstable, requires surgery. This involves repositioning the bone fragments into their normal alignment and using special screws and metal plates to hold the fragments together for proper healing.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is an experienced orthopaedic surgeon with vast experience in the diagnosis and treatment of knee dislocations. Seek personalised treatment advice from Dr Seng if you suspect that a knee dislocation has occurred.

Also known as adhesive capsulitis, 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝘇𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿 refers to the stiffness and reduced range of motion in the shoulder due to the inflammation and thickening of the shoulder capsule.

This shoulder condition typically progresses in three stages, with pain, stiffness and limited movement experienced in the shoulder joint.

To manage frozen shoulder effectively, treatment will first involve conservative means like medications, physiotherapy and corticosteroid injections to help reduce pain and improve shoulder motion.

However, should symptoms persist or when conservative treatments fail to suffice, surgery in the form of shoulder arthroscopy can be recommended to help stretch and release the stiffened joint capsule.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is an orthopaedic surgeon experienced in treating a wide range of shoulder injuries including frozen shoulder. Schedule a consultation with Dr Seng should you experience persistent shoulder pain.

If you experience sudden pain after an accidental twisting of your ankle; chances are, you might’ve sustained an 𝗮𝗻𝗸𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻.

Ankle sprains occur when ligaments supporting the ankle are overstretched, causing them to tear.

Any high-impact sports, wearing of improper footwear, a fall or while walking on uneven surfaces are often the cause of an ankle sprain.

In most instances, the pain and swelling can be relieved with conservative treatment, including RICE therapy, recovery aids and physiotherapy.

For cases of chronic ankle pain and instability from previous ligamentous injuries of the ankle, arthroscopic surgery may be used to reconstruct torn ligaments.

𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗴 is an experienced foot and ankle surgeon with in-depth experience in treating ankle sprains of varying severity. Book a consultation with Dr Seng today for prompt and effective treatment.
