An orthopaedic hospital for Zirakpur families
Zirakpur has grown into one of the busiest residential towns around the Tricity, with many young families, working couples and older parents living in apartments and new colonies along the highways. When a bone breaks, a back gives way or a knee wears out, families want a hospital that can handle it properly and quickly.
Many Zirakpur families come to Cheema Medical Complex (CMC Hospital), a multispeciality hospital that has served 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 Zirakpur.

What Zirakpur patients most often come to us for
Road accident injuries and fractures
The highways through Zirakpur carry heavy traffic, and two-wheeler and car accidents are a common cause of fractures, dislocations and soft-tissue injuries. Our emergency is open 24 hours, with X-ray and CT scan on site, plaster, and fracture surgery when needed. See fracture and trauma care.
Children’s fractures
Young families mean busy children, and falls from cycles, stairs, swings and play areas are common. Children’s bones need care that protects growth. See children’s fracture care.
Back and neck pain from commuting and desk work
Many Zirakpur residents commute every day and work long hours at a desk. Back and neck pain, and sometimes sciatica, follow. Most of it gets better with the right diagnosis and physiotherapy. See spine and back pain treatment.
Knee pain and joint replacement for parents
Older parents living with their children in Zirakpur often struggle with knee arthritis, especially with stairs. Treatment ranges from exercise and physiotherapy to knee replacement surgery when the joint is worn out.
Sports and gym injuries
Gyms, sports academies and weekend cricket mean ankle sprains, ligament tears and muscle strains. See sports injury treatment.
Living in an apartment after surgery
Many of our Zirakpur patients live in high-rise apartments. That changes recovery planning a little, and the team prepares you for it:
- Lifts and stairs. Before discharge after knee or hip surgery, the physiotherapist practises steps with you, so you can manage the few steps that every building has.
- Getting in and out of the car. You will learn the safest way to sit and stand from a car seat, which matters for follow-up trips.
- Bathroom safety. A raised toilet seat or commode, a non-slip mat and a grab bar make the first weeks easier.
- A firm chair with arms is easier to stand up from than a low sofa.
Injuries we see at different ages
| Age group | Common problems |
|---|---|
| Young children | Forearm and elbow fractures from falls, pulled elbow, toddler’s fractures |
| School and college students | Sports sprains, ligament injuries, wrist and collarbone fractures from cycle and two-wheeler falls |

| Older parents | Knee and hip arthritis, hip and wrist fractures after falls, back pain from weak bones |
A simple first-aid kit for bone and joint injuries
Keep these at home, especially with young children or older parents in the family:
- A couple of elastic crepe bandages
- A triangular bandage or a clean cloth to make a sling
- An ice pack in the freezer, and a cloth to wrap it
- A small piece of stiff cardboard or a folded magazine to support an injured arm
- Paracetamol, used as directed
- The hospital’s number saved in every family member’s phone: 8054922340
Follow-up visits after treatment
After a fracture or surgery, you will usually need a few follow-up visits: a cast or wound check, follow-up X-rays and some physiotherapy sessions. Ask the desk to schedule visits together where possible, and to avoid peak traffic hours if that helps. If something worries you between visits, such as increasing pain, swelling, fever or numbness, call the hospital or come to the emergency.
