Orthopaedic medicine is a specialty focusing on the diagnosis, correction, prevention and treatment of injuries or disorders of the musculoskeletal system. Orthopedic doctors address conditions related to the bones, joints, muscles, ligaments and tendons in the body.

As the body’s support system, bones need to stay healthy and strong. Regular exercise is important to maintain bone health. Exercise will also help you avoid orthopaedic issues in the future. Diet and nutrition are also critical to orthopaedic health. A regular intake of calcium and vitamin D in your diet will contribute to strong, healthy bones. Minimizing caffeine and alcohol consumption supports healthy bones and joints, as does avoiding smoking.

Common orthopaedic tests include bone densitometry, skeletal scintigraphy, discography, myelography and electromyography. Most of these tests rely on proven technology, such as X-ray, MRI, ultrasound and computed tomography.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common type of arthritis. This degenerative joint condition causes mild to severe pain and discomfort. This usually occurs in the hands, hips, knees, or back, although it can affect any joint.

Orthopaedic surgery is a procedure on your musculoskeletal system. It can diagnose, treat, repair and prevent conditions that affect your bones, muscles and joints. Common types of orthopaedic surgery are ACL surgery and knee replacement surgery.
