Evaluation includes injury history, functional examination, X-ray or MRI where needed and rehabilitation assessment.
Treatment may include physiotherapy, strengthening, balance training, load management and sport-specific progression.
Surgery may be discussed for selected ligament tears, repairable meniscus tears, recurrent shoulder instability or persistent mechanical symptoms.
Return to sport is gradual and based on healing, strength, confidence, movement quality and consultant guidance.
