Orthopedic Consultation for Vadapalani Residents
Standing for eight or ten hours a shift is the common factor behind the knee, heel, and lower-back pain we see from Vadapalani. Treatment has to fit a job you cannot simply stop doing, so we focus on practical relief, footwear, and load management alongside medication.
Joint pain, back pain, and stiffness can quietly limit everything you do — from climbing stairs to a good night’s sleep. Many people put up with it far longer than they need to, when the right assessment and a simple treatment plan could bring real relief.
At Srinivasa Health Clinic, orthopedic care is provided by SSS Ortho, led by Dr. S.S. Sukumaran, MBBS, D.Ortho, MS (Ortho), Professor & Head of Orthopaedics at Government Kilpauk Medical College & Hospital, who consults from 6pm to 8pm, Monday to Saturday. We diagnose the true source of your pain, offer conservative treatments first — medication, physiotherapy guidance, and lifestyle changes — and advise clearly if and when a specialist procedure is worth considering.
