Orthopedics and Traumatology
About
Orthopedics and Traumatology is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of diseases affecting bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, and tendons, as well as injuries resulting from trauma.
Key areas of interest include fractures and dislocations, sports injuries, joint diseases requiring knee or hip replacement, spinal problems, and congenital musculoskeletal disorders.
Treatment may involve conservative methods (casts, splints, medications, and physical therapy) as well as arthroscopic or open surgical techniques. The primary goal is to reduce pain, restore mobility, and enable patients to safely return to their daily activities.
