Movement Is Freedom: The Truth About Joint Pain, Injuries & Recovery | MedStories Ep. 2

Movement is something we often take for granted — until pain, injury or restricted movement starts changing the way we live. In Episode 2 of MedStories, we sit down with Dr. Ashish Brahmbhatt, Orthopaedic & Arthroscopic Surgeon, for an honest and insightful conversation about something all of us experience in some form: pain, movement and mobility. Joining the conversation is our Medical Co-Host Dr. Shivani Patel, a senior physiotherapist with 24 years of clinical experience. Together, they bring both the surgical and physiotherapy perspectives to the conversation. From everyday joint and muscle pain to sports injuries, rehabilitation and surgery, we explore questions that many patients have but often don't know whom to ask. In this episode, we discuss: • When should you see a physiotherapist and when should you see an orthopaedic surgeon? • Is every pain a sign that you need surgery? • How important is physiotherapy before and after surgery? • What happens when you keep ignoring persistent pain? • Sports injuries and the importance of timely treatment • Arthroscopy — what is it and when is it actually needed? • How can movement and mobility be protected as we age? • What does recovery really look like? • Can changing our lifestyle prevent orthopaedic problems? • The role of doctors and physiotherapists in helping patients return to an active life At the heart of this conversation is a simple idea: Movement is freedom. And taking care of your body today can change how you live tomorrow. 🎙️ MEDSTORIES — Episode 02 Host: Dhruv Thakkar Medical Co-Host: Dr. Shivani Patel Guest Expert: Dr. Ashish Brahmbhatt Where doctors' stories inspire growth.
