Orthopaedic care for New Chandigarh and Mullanpur
New Chandigarh, around Mullanpur on the northern side of the Tricity, is one of the newest and fastest-growing areas in the region. New housing societies, new schools and sports facilities, and ongoing construction mean many families are new to the area and still finding the doctors and hospitals they trust.
Many New Chandigarh families 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 New Chandigarh.

What New Chandigarh residents most often come to us for
Fractures and injuries
Falls at home, road accidents on new roads, and injuries on construction sites and at work are common reasons for emergency visits. The emergency has X-ray and CT scan on site, with plaster and fracture surgery when needed. See fracture and trauma care.
Sports injuries
With cricket, football, cycling, running and gyms all popular in the area, ankle sprains, knee ligament injuries and shoulder problems are frequent. See sports injury treatment.
Back pain
New homes often come with long commutes and long hours at a desk, which bring back and neck pain. See spine and back pain treatment.
Knee arthritis and joint replacement for parents
Many families have parents living with them, and knee arthritis is one of the most common reasons they visit. Treatment ranges from exercise and physiotherapy, explained in arthritis and joint pain treatment, to knee replacement surgery when the joint is badly worn.
Safety in new homes
New homes and building sites have their own fall risks. A few simple steps prevent many fractures, especially for children and older parents:
- Fit railings on stairs and balconies, and grab bars in bathrooms.
- Use non-slip mats in bathrooms and on polished floors.
- Light stairways and corridors well at night.
- Keep children away from construction areas and loose building material.
- Make sure older parents wear well-fitting footwear at home.
Construction and workplace injuries
With building work going on across the area, falls from height, crush injuries, cuts with tools and back injuries from lifting are common. What to do:
- Make the area safe and stop any machinery.
- Do not move someone who has fallen from height and has neck or back pain, unless they are in danger; call an ambulance.
- For a hand or limb injury, cover any wound with a clean cloth, keep the part raised, and support it.
- Remove rings and watches from an injured hand before it swells.
- Bring the person to the emergency, and bring along any details the employer or insurer will need.
Hand and wrist injuries in particular should be checked early, because tendon and nerve injuries can be missed if the skin wound looks small.
Children and new play areas
New societies often have new parks and play areas. Most falls cause only bruises, but bring a child in if they refuse to use an arm or walk on a leg, if there is swelling or a bent look, or if they hit their head and are drowsy or vomiting. See children’s fracture care.
Helping parents settle in after a move
Older parents who move into a new home are at higher risk of falls while they get used to new stairs, bathrooms and floors. In the first weeks, add night lights, keep floors clear, put commonly used things within easy reach, and make sure their walking stick or walker is to hand. If they already have knee or hip arthritis, a check-up and a physiotherapy plan can help them stay steady and independent.
