What is Orthopedics?
Orthopedics is a medical specialty focused on diagnosing, preventing, and treating musculoskeletal system disorders and injuries to bones, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments. Orthopedic treatment is required when a condition or injury affects the normal function of the musculoskeletal system. Orthopedic conditions can be triggered by a variety of factors such as sports injuries, accidents, or natural aging and bone-related diseases such as arthritis. Treatment can be surgical or non-surgical depending on the severity of the condition, patient’s age, overall health, and lifestyle.
What is the role of an orthopedic surgeon? What are some common problems that may require seeking an Orthopedic Surgeon?
The most common reasons for seeking orthopedic treatment include joint pain, decreased range of motion, and difficulty with normal activities of daily living.
