Unlock Lifelong Joint Health with Dr Allan Roy Sekeitto and OrthoJoints.
Me: “I’m in the prime of my life.”
Your knees: “The heck you are!”
As we become more attuned to the subtle reminders of the ageing process, everyday activities like walking upstairs, running, and even bending over to pull on our socks may prompt us to acknowledge the inevitable changes occurring in our bodies.
Let’s be honest, we tend to only think about our joint health when they start causing us trouble – and it often happens suddenly, catching us off guard and causing concern. So, when should we start taking joint health seriously? Should we wait for a meniscus tear on the tennis court, a diagnosis of osteoarthritis from a specialist, or a fracture that side-lines our dreams and passions?
The answer is simply, no.
Dr Allan Sekeitto, a globally-trained and recognised Orthopaedic and Arthroplasty surgeon and owner of OrthoJoints Practice in Johannesburg, emphasises that joint health is not something to be addressed only when problems arise. Instead, he advocates for a strategic, holistic approach to health, starting at a young age to maintain optimal mobility throughout life’s journey.
When consulted for advice on joint health, Dr Sekeitto goes beyond surgical solutions. He emphasises the importance of incorporating various lifestyle factors such as diet, movement, posture, and sleep into one’s daily routine to promote lifelong strong joints. He highlights that even small changes in how you approach joint health can significantly impact surgical outcomes, both before and after surgery. By adopting these proactive measures, individuals can enhance their overall joint health and optimise their recovery process.
Additionally, he stresses the importance of being realistic about the outcomes of a life without surgery, highlighting the value of proactive measures in maintaining overall well-being and mobility.
Trusted advice and expertise in Orthopaedic and joint replacement surgery begins with young entrepreneurial specialists such as Dr Sekeitto. With a lifetime dedicated to his craft, he not only brings top-tier training to his resume but also delivers exceptional care, after-care, and holistic approaches to his patients’ well-being. Renowned for his expertise, Dr Sekeitto’s commitment to patient-centric care has made him one of the most sought-after specialists in South Africa, continuously striving for excellence in his practice.
Within the expansive orthopaedic realm, Dr Sekeitto has honed his expertise on two crucial areas of mobility: the knees and hips. These regions of the body are particularly susceptible to injury, as well as conditions like osteoarthritis. Typically, upon referral from a primary caregiver, Dr Sekeitto adopts a holistic approach to treatment, prioritising non-invasive methods whenever possible, even if it means steering away from surgery. When joint replacement surgery is needed, the top technological modalities are used to ensure optimal results, coupled with extensive after-care.
While joint pain can stem from various conditions, it’s essential to address it promptly. Your joints play a pivotal role in daily activities and are naturally subjected to significant stress. Therefore, it is crucial to take care of any joint discomfort sooner rather than later to maintain optimal functionality and prevent further complications.
