Understanding Fractures & Trauma
A fracture is a break in the bone that may range from a simple crack to a complete break involving displacement. Trauma surgery focuses on treating severe injuries affecting bones, joints, and surrounding tissues.
Common types of fractures and injuries include:
- Simple fractures: Clean breaks without damage to surrounding tissue
- Compound fractures: Bone breaks through the skin, increasing infection risk
- Comminuted fractures: Bone shatters into multiple pieces
- Dislocations: Bones forced out of their normal joint position
- Multiple injuries: Complex trauma involving several bones or joints
Signs You Should Seek Help
Seek immediate orthopedic evaluation if you experience:
- Sudden, severe pain after an accident or fall
- Visible deformity or swelling around the injured area
- Inability to move or bear weight on the affected limb
- Bone protruding through the skin
- Numbness, tingling, or weakness following injury
- Persistent pain that does not improve with rest or first aid
How Westminster Treats Fractures & Trauma
Our specialists use a structured approach to stabilize, repair, and restore function. Treatment options include:
- Emergency stabilization: Splints, casts, or traction to immobilize the fracture
- Closed reduction: Realignment of bones without surgery
- Internal fixation: Surgical placement of plates, screws, or rods to stabilize bones
- External fixation: Frames applied outside the body to hold bones in place while healing
- Joint reconstruction: When trauma affects surrounding joints and cartilage
- Rehabilitation programs: Physiotherapy to rebuild strength, mobility, and balance after healing
Every plan is customized, balancing rapid recovery with long-term function and stability.

Ankle Sprain & Instability Treatment
At Westminster Multi Specialty Clinic in Dubai Healthcare City, our Orthopedics Department provides expert care for ankle sprains and chronic ankle instability. These injuries are among the most common orthopedic concerns, often caused by sports, exercise, or everyday accidents.
With accurate diagnosis, tailored rehabilitation, and surgical options when required, we help patients restore ankle strength, prevent recurrence, and return to normal activity. Learn more about our full Orthopedic Services.

Understanding Ankle Sprains & Instability
- Ankle sprain: Occurs when the ligaments supporting the ankle stretch or tear, usually from twisting or rolling the ankle.
- Chronic ankle instability: Repeated sprains or untreated injuries weaken ligaments, leading to ongoing pain, swelling, and frequent “giving way” of the ankle.
If left untreated, these conditions can lead to long-term joint weakness, arthritis, or difficulty with sports and daily activities.
Signs You Should Seek Help
You may need orthopedic evaluation if you experience:
- Pain, swelling, or bruising after twisting the ankle
- Repeated ankle sprains, even with mild activity
- A sensation of the ankle “giving way” on uneven ground
- Ongoing stiffness or weakness despite rest and physiotherapy
- Difficulty walking, running, or participating in sports
- Persistent pain months after an initial sprain
How Westminster Treats Ankle Sprains & Instability
Our orthopedic specialists provide personalized treatment depending on severity:
- Initial care for sprains: Rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE)
- Bracing and support: To stabilize the ankle during healing
- Medication: Anti-inflammatories to reduce pain and swelling
- Physiotherapy: Strengthening and balance training to prevent recurrence
- Advanced imaging: MRI or ultrasound to check for ligament tears
- Surgical options: Arthroscopic ligament repair or reconstruction for severe or chronic instability
- Rehabilitation programs: Structured recovery plans to restore ankle strength and function
Why Choose Westminster for Ankle Care?
- Orthopedic surgeons licensed by the Dubai Health Authority (DHA) with expertise in sports and trauma-related ankle injuries
- Use of advanced imaging for accurate diagnosis
- Access to minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques for ligament repair
- Integrated physiotherapy for long-term ankle stability
- Convenient care in Dubai Healthcare City with a patient-centered approach
Restoring Stability and Confidence
Ankle sprains and instability may seem minor at first, but without proper treatment they can lead to chronic problems. At Westminster Multi Specialty Clinic, we provide expert care to ensure full recovery and lasting stability. Contact us today to schedule your consultation.
FAQ's
How long does it take for an ankle sprain to heal?
Most mild sprains heal in 2–4 weeks, while severe sprains may take several months.
Can ankle instability heal without surgery?
Yes. Many cases improve with physiotherapy, bracing, and rehabilitation, but surgery may be needed for persistent instability.
Is it safe to return to sports after an ankle sprain?
Yes, but only once pain, swelling, and instability have resolved. Early return increases the risk of re-injury.
What happens if ankle sprains are left untreated?
Repeated injuries can cause chronic instability, joint damage, and early arthritis.
Can surgery completely fix ankle instability?
Surgical repair or reconstruction is highly effective, especially when followed by proper physiotherapy.

ACL & Meniscus Tear Treatment
At Westminster Multi Specialty Clinic in Dubai Healthcare City, our Orthopedics Department provides expert care for patients with knee injuries such as ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) and meniscus tears. These injuries often occur in athletes but can also affect anyone through accidents or daily activity.
With precise diagnosis and advanced treatment — ranging from rehabilitation to minimally invasive surgery — we help patients regain knee stability, strength, and mobility. Learn more about our full Orthopedic Services.

Understanding ACL & Meniscus Tears
- ACL Tear: The anterior cruciate ligament stabilizes the knee. Injury often happens during sudden stops, pivots, or awkward landings, leading to instability and swelling.
- Meniscus Tear: The meniscus is cartilage that cushions the knee. Tears commonly occur from twisting motions or direct injury and cause pain, locking, or stiffness.
Both injuries can severely limit activity and, if untreated, may increase the risk of long-term arthritis or repeated knee damage.
Signs You Should Seek Help
You may benefit from orthopedic evaluation if you notice:
- A popping sound or sudden pain during activity
- Immediate swelling in the knee after injury
- Knee instability or “giving way” during walking or sports
- Difficulty bending, straightening, or rotating the knee
- Locking or catching sensation inside the joint
- Persistent pain despite rest or initial treatment
How Westminster Treats ACL & Meniscus Tears
Our orthopedic team tailors treatment based on the type and severity of the injury. Options include:
- Diagnostic imaging: MRI and X-rays to confirm ligament or cartilage damage
- Non-surgical care: Rest, bracing, physiotherapy, and anti-inflammatory medication for mild cases
- Arthroscopic surgery: Minimally invasive procedures to repair or reconstruct torn ligaments or meniscus tissue
- ACL reconstruction: Using grafts from the patient or donor tissue to restore stability
- Meniscus repair or trimming: Depending on the size and location of the tear
- Rehabilitation programs: Structured physiotherapy to rebuild strength, balance, and flexibility
Every plan includes long-term follow-up to ensure full recovery and safe return to activity.
Why Choose Westminster for ACL & Meniscus Care?
- Orthopedic surgeons licensed by the Dubai Health Authority (DHA) with expertise in sports-related injuries
- Minimally invasive surgical techniques for faster healing
- Comprehensive physiotherapy support to restore performance and prevent re-injury
- Access to advanced imaging and diagnostics in one location
- Patient-centered care in Dubai Healthcare City with a focus on safe recovery

FAQ's
Do all ACL or meniscus tears require surgery?
Not always. Small tears and mild ligament injuries may improve with physiotherapy and bracing.
How long does recovery take after ACL reconstruction?
Most patients need 6–9 months of rehabilitation before safely returning to sports.
Can a meniscus tear heal on its own?
Some small tears may heal naturally, but larger or unstable tears often require surgical repair.
How long does recovery take from back surgery?
Recovery varies, but most patients resume normal activities within weeks to months depending on the procedure.
Will I be able to play sports again after surgery?
With proper rehabilitation, many patients return to sports and high-level activities after full recovery.

Back & Spine Pain Treatment
At Westminster Multi Specialty Clinic in Dubai Healthcare City, our Orthopedics Department provides advanced care for patients living with chronic back or spine pain. These conditions can limit movement, affect daily activities, and cause long-term discomfort if left untreated.
Whether caused by a herniated disc, sciatica, or degenerative spine conditions, our goal is to identify the underlying issue and provide effective, personalized treatment. Learn more about our full Orthopedic Services.

Understanding Back & Spine Pain
Back pain is one of the most common orthopedic concerns, ranging from mild stiffness to severe, radiating pain. Some of the most frequent causes include:
- Herniated disc: When cushioning discs between vertebrae slip out of place, pressing on nerves.
- Sciatica: Nerve pain radiating from the lower back down the legs, often due to disc or spinal compression.
- Spinal stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal causing nerve compression.
- Degenerative disc disease: Age-related wear of spinal discs leading to pain and limited flexibility.
These conditions may progress if untreated, making early evaluation essential.
Signs You Should Seek Help
You may benefit from professional orthopedic care if you experience:
- Persistent lower or upper back pain lasting weeks or months
- Sharp pain radiating from the back to the leg (sciatica)
- Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms or legs
- Difficulty standing, walking, or bending without pain
- Pain that worsens after long periods of sitting or standing
- Loss of bladder or bowel control (urgent sign requiring immediate medical attention)
How Westminster Treats Back & Spine Pain
Our specialists use a comprehensive approach, starting with advanced diagnostic imaging to pinpoint the cause. Treatment options include:
- Medication management: Anti-inflammatories, pain relievers, and nerve pain medication where needed
- Physiotherapy & rehabilitation: Exercises to strengthen supporting muscles and improve mobility
- Epidural steroid injections: To reduce nerve inflammation and relieve sciatica or disc-related pain
- Minimally invasive spine procedures: Techniques such as microdiscectomy for herniated discs
- Surgical options: Spinal fusion or decompression surgeries for severe or unresponsive cases
- Post-treatment rehabilitation: Structured recovery plans to prevent recurrence and maintain spine health
Each plan is individualized to relieve pain while improving strength and stability.
Why Choose Westminster for Spine Care?

FAQ's
What is the difference between a herniated disc and sciatica?
A herniated disc occurs when spinal discs slip or rupture, while sciatica is nerve pain caused by compression, often due to a herniated disc.
Can back pain improve without surgery?
Yes. Many patients respond well to physiotherapy, medication, or injections before surgery is considered.
When is spine surgery necessary?
Surgery is recommended if pain persists despite conservative treatments or if there is significant nerve compression.
How long does recovery take from back surgery?
Recovery varies, but most patients resume normal activities within weeks to months depending on the procedure.
Can back and spine pain return after treatment?
Yes, but rehabilitation and lifestyle changes reduce recurrence. Regular follow-ups help maintain long-term results.
