  1. Ankle Ligament Reconstruction: Ankle instability, often caused by sprains, can lead to chronic problems. Arthroscopy allows for the assessment of ligament damage and enables procedures to reconstruct or repair torn ligaments by Best Ankle surgeon in Guntur, such as the lateral ankle ligaments.
  2. Treatment of Ankle Impingement: Anterior impingement, or "footballer's ankle," occurs when soft tissue or bone spurs restrict ankle movement. During arthroscopy, surgeons can remove these spurs and excess soft tissue, alleviating pain and improving functionality.
