What Does an Orthopaedic Surgeon Do?
An orthopaedic surgeon is a medical specialist trained to diagnose, treat, and manage conditions affecting the bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles. While some issues can be addressed with physical therapy or medication, others require surgical intervention to restore function or relieve pain. Orthopaedic surgeons perform procedures such as joint replacements, arthroscopic surgeries, spinal surgeries and trauma repairs. Subspecialists focus on specific areas like sports injuries, joint replacements , paediatric bone conditions, spine surgery, or orthopaedic oncology. Rheumatologists, pain specialists and physiotherapists work closely with orthopaedic department to provide holistic care for each patient.

- Persistent joint pain, stiffness, instability or swelling
