Arthroscopic Acromioplasty in Indore
Relieve Shoulder Impingement. Move Without Pain.
Shoulder impingement syndrome is one of the most common causes of shoulder pain, especially in active individuals and older adults. At Ortho Pro Clinic, Dr. Ravindra Gupta offers arthroscopic acromioplasty, a minimally invasive procedure that relieves pain, improves shoulder mobility, and helps prevent rotator cuff tears.
🔍 What is Arthroscopic Acromioplasty?
Arthroscopic acromioplasty is a keyhole surgery that involves reshaping the undersurface of the acromion bone (part of the shoulder blade) to create more space for the rotator cuff tendons. This helps reduce friction and inflammation, relieving impingement symptoms and restoring smooth shoulder movement.
