What is Orthopaedics?

Orthopaedics is an area of medicine that focuses on the musculoskeletal system. This includes diagnosing, treating and preventing conditions which impact the bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles and nerves. 

It covers a wide range of issues, from fractures and sports injuries to arthritis and spinal disorders. In some cases, an Orthopaedic Consultant may recommend non-surgical approaches, such as physiotherapy and pain management to manage your conditions.  

In others, you may require a specific Orthopaedic surgery treatment like joint replacements and arthroscopy to restore mobility, relieve pain, and improve overall function. Whether treating acute injuries or chronic conditions, Orthopaedics play a vital role in helping patients maintain an active and pain-free lifestyle.
