Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our orthopedics services.
You should consider seeing an orthopedic specialist if you experience persistent joint pain, limited range of motion, joint swelling or stiffness, difficulty using a joint for everyday activities, or if you've suffered an injury to a bone, joint, or muscle.
A fracture is a break in a bone, while a sprain is an injury to a ligament (the tissue that connects bones to other bones). Both can cause pain and swelling, but fractures often require immobilization for proper healing.
Treatment for arthritis depends on the type and severity but may include medications for pain and inflammation, physical therapy, lifestyle modifications, assistive devices, and in some cases, surgical interventions like joint replacement.
For acute injuries, follow the RICE protocol: Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. Take over-the-counter pain relievers if needed, and seek medical attention if you experience severe pain, inability to bear weight, visible deformity, or if symptoms don't improve within a few days.
