An orthopaedic hospital close to Kharar
Kharar sits on the busy road out of Mohali towards Ropar and Ludhiana, and the town and its surrounding villages have grown fast. Students from the universities and colleges around Kharar, people who work long days in farms, factories and construction, and older parents all need reliable orthopaedic care when something goes wrong.
Many of them come to Cheema Medical Complex (CMC Hospital), a multispeciality hospital that has served Mohali and the Tricity since 1988. To be clear about where we are: we have one hospital, on Mohali Stadium Road near the BSNL Telephone Exchange, Phase 4, Sector 59, Mohali. We do not have a branch in Kharar.

For students: sports injuries and two-wheeler accidents
Hostels, campuses and sports grounds around Kharar mean a steady stream of young patients with:
- Ankle sprains and knee twists from football, basketball, cricket and kabaddi
- ACL and meniscus tears, often with a pop and quick swelling
- Shoulder dislocations in contact sports and gym training
- Fractures from two-wheeler falls, especially wrist, collarbone, ankle and leg fractures
Our sports injury treatment and arthroscopy and ACL surgery pages explain what to expect. For a fresh injury, the emergency is open 24 hours.
Students away from home: bring your ID, any previous reports and, if possible, a friend. If your parents are far away, the team can speak to them on the phone about the plan.
For workers and farmers: back pain and joint pain
Heavy lifting, bending in the fields and long hours on your feet put a lot of strain on the back and knees. Common problems we see are:
- Low back pain and sciatica after lifting
- Neck and shoulder pain from overhead work
- Knee arthritis that makes squatting and walking on uneven ground painful
- Hand and wrist injuries at work
Most of these improve without surgery, with the right diagnosis, medicines, physiotherapy-led spine care and advice on safer lifting and working positions. See also arthritis and joint pain treatment.
For older parents
Older parents in Kharar often live with knee and hip arthritis, back pain and weak bones. A fall at home can mean a hip or wrist fracture. Because Cheema Medical Complex is a multispeciality hospital, diabetes, blood pressure and heart problems are managed in the same building, which matters for safe surgery and recovery. See fracture and trauma care.
Sports injury first aid on campus
When a teammate goes down with a twisted knee or ankle:
- Stop play and help them off the ground without putting weight on the leg.
- Apply ice wrapped in a cloth for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Wrap a crepe bandage firmly but not tight, and keep the leg raised.
- Do not massage, pull or try to straighten the joint.
- If they cannot put weight on it, the joint looks out of shape, or there is numbness, bring them to the emergency.
A knee that swells quickly within a few hours of a twist often has a ligament or meniscus injury and should be examined, even if the pain settles.
Safer lifting at work and on the farm
Many back injuries we see in patients from around Kharar come from lifting. A few habits protect the spine:
- Bend your knees and hips, not your back, and keep the load close to your body.
- Do not twist while lifting; turn your feet instead.
- Share heavy loads, or use a trolley or a second person.
- Take short breaks during long hours of bending, for example while sowing or harvesting.
- Build strength in the back and core with simple daily exercises.
When knee pain in older adults needs a doctor
Knee pain is common with age, but it is worth seeing an orthopaedic doctor if the knee swells, gives way, locks, becomes bent or bow-legged, wakes the person at night, or stops them walking to the gurdwara, the market or the fields. Early treatment often delays or avoids surgery.
