How Should a Sportsman Cope After a Severe Sports Injury?
The article discusses how sportspeople can cope with severe sports injuries. The input of a sports psychologist can be vital to deal with depression, lack of compliance with treatment, straying from healthy dietary habits, and lack of focus on their sport.

Do You Feel an Irresistible Urge to Move Your Legs While Sleeping? This is Why
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a neurological sleep disorder that causes an irrepressible urge to move, particularly the legs. It can lead to significant sleep disruption, making it difficult to fall asleep or return after waking up. According to Dr Suhas HS, Consultant Pulmonologist, Manipal Hospital, Bangalore, the causes of RLS include iron deficiency anaemia, renal failure, peripheral neuropathy, hormonal changes, pregnancy and the use of alcohol, nicotine and caffeine. Lack of sleep is one of the factors that can worsen RLS symptoms. It is important to address sleep disturbances and RLS to improve overall sleep quality and relieve RLS symptoms. To manage the condition, consult a health expert to better understand the severity and underlying causes. Various tools are used for treating and managing RLS including medications such as dopaminergic drugs, benzodiazepines and Gabapentin-like drugs. Lifestyle adjustments such as getting good sleep, quitting smoking and exercising regularly during the daytime may also help.

Dr. Saikat Kanjilal on Why are silent heart attacks increasing at an alarming rate? How to prevent them? Know risk factor | The Indian Express | Manipal Hospitals Sarjapur Road
Why are Silent Heart Attacks Increasing at an Alarming Rate?
According to Dr Saikat Kanjilal, Consultant Interventional Cardiologist, Manipal Hospital, a silent heart attack has no or minor symptoms that are often overlooked or mistaken for a less serious illness. Silent heart attacks are caused by plaque accumulation in the walls of arteries delivering blood to the heart, which lowers blood flow and can lead to a rupture of the plaque, observed by blood clots occluding the lumen of the artery, resulting in a heart attack. The longer the heart is without blood flow, the more damage it experiences. Women, elderly people and diabetics are most vulnerable to silent heart attacks. Risk factors include hypertension, high cholesterol, obesity, lack of physical activity, smoking, age, a family medical history of heart disease, poor diet, and lifestyle. A silent heart attack patient has the same long-term survival rate as an ordinary heart attack patient but is more susceptible to complications such as heart failure and stroke. It is important to seek medical attention immediately if there is suspicion of a silent heart attack, as without timely treatment, it can be deadly.

Dr. Naveen Kumar LV on An Overview of Lateral Ankle Ligament Reconstruction | Medgate Today | Manipal Hospitals Sarjapur Road
An Overview of Lateral Ankle Ligament Reconstruction
Ankle injuries are prevalent in sports and can result in recurring sprains and a loss of confidence in one's ability to play. While some injuries heal on their own, damaged ligaments on the outside of the ankle can lead to recurring ankle-twisting injuries and cartilage loss. Dr Naveen Kumar LV, Consultant- Orthopaedics at Manipal Hospital, has devised a revolutionary treatment for ankle ligament injuries. Natural material grafts extracted from the patient's body are used in this technique to replicate tensile strength and offer a stable fixation for the rest of their lives. The patient will be in a walking boot for the first three weeks to cover the ankle and can return to play in three to four months if proper rehabilitation is completed.

Arthroscopic Synovectomy: Who needs it and why?
Arthroscopic Synovectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that removes inflamed synovial tissue from inside a joint using an arthroscope. The procedure is recommended for patients with inflammatory joint conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, or other forms of inflammatory arthritis. The purpose is to remove the inflamed synovial tissue, reduce joint pain and inflammation, and slow down or prevent further joint damage. Arthroscopic synovectomy depends on factors, including the severity of the joint inflammation, joint damage and the patient's overall health and medical history. According to Dr Ayyappan V Nair, Shoulder Surgery, Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy at Manipal Hospital, arthritic conditions or conditions affect the synovium, such as Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS), the synovium produces abnormal fluid or cartilaginous bodies inside. In this scenario, the synovium is partially or entirely removed. It is a quick procedure and takes only around half an hour time.
