  • A "pop" felt at the time of injury
  • Joint swelling within hours of playing
  • A feeling the joint is giving way
  • Shoulder that has dislocated more than once
Cricket and football injuries across KPK are frequently managed as “rest and see” for months before an athlete reaches a sports medicine specialist. Early, accurate diagnosis — including deciding what genuinely needs surgery versus structured rehabilitation — makes a measurable difference to return-to-play timelines.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the most common sports injuries treated at OAIC?
OAIC commonly treats ACL and PCL ligament tears, meniscus tears, rotator cuff injuries, shoulder instability including Bankart lesions, Achilles tendon injuries, and stress fractures — the range of injuries typically seen in footballers, cricketers, and other athletes across KPK.
No. Many sports injuries — partial ligament sprains, mild meniscus tears, grade 1-2 muscle strains — respond well to physiotherapy, activity modification, and orthobiologics such as PRP. Surgery is generally reserved for complete ligament ruptures, unstable meniscus tears, and injuries that fail non-surgical management.
A Bankart lesion is a tear of the labrum at the front of the shoulder socket, most often from a dislocation, and a common cause of recurrent shoulder instability in athletes. Treatment ranges from physiotherapy-based stabilization to arthroscopic labral repair depending on severity and dislocation frequency.
Return to sport after ACL reconstruction is typically considered from around 9 to 12 months, guided by strength testing and functional milestones rather than time alone, since returning too early significantly raises the risk of re-injury.
