How to prepare
- Complete pre-operative medical evaluation, including blood tests and imaging (MRI, CT scan).

Aadya Bhatia, a 17-year-old nationally ranked...
Aadya Bhatia, a 17-year-old nationally ranked badminton player, was in the prime of her junior career when she began experiencing a deep, aching pain in the back of her dominant right shoulder during overhead smashes. It progressed to a feeling of the shoulder 'slipping' and a painful click. Despite rest and intensive physiotherapy, the instability persisted, threatening her scholarship prospects. Her team doctor and orthopedic specialist diagnosed recurrent posterior subluxation, likely from repetitive strain. They advised that without Arthroscopic Posterior Stabilisation, she risked permanent joint damage and an end to her high-level play. The decision weighed heavily on Aadya and her family; surgery meant missing a crucial season. The minimally invasive surgery was successful in repairing the damaged posterior capsule. The early weeks of recovery were emotionally taxing, watching her peers compete while she was in a sling. However, her disciplined athlete's mindset fueled her rehab. Nine months post-op, after a gradual return to sport, Aadya competed again, pain-free and confident in her shoulder's stability. She felt a renewed gratitude for her sport and a fierce pride in overcoming a major setback.
