Orthopedics

Orthopedics, also known as orthopedics, is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal disorders and injuries. Musculoskeletal conditions involve the bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and related structures. Orthopedic specialists, known as orthopedic surgeons or orthopedists, employ both surgical and non-surgical methods to address a wide range of orthopedic issues, including fractures, joint replacements, spinal deformities, sports injuries, and degenerative conditions.

Orthopedics plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality of life for individuals affected by musculoskeletal disorders, enabling them to regain mobility, reduce pain, and lead more active lives.
