Bone Surgery
Bone surgery, also known as orthopedic surgery, involves procedures to repair or replace damaged bones. This type of surgery can address various issues, such as fractures, deformities, or joint problems. Surgeons use techniques like fixation, where metal plates or screws stabilize the bone, or joint replacement, where a damaged joint is replaced with an artificial one.
Recovery from bone surgery varies depending on the procedure and the patient's overall health. Rehabilitation often includes physical therapy to restore strength and mobility. Patients may need to follow specific guidelines to ensure proper healing and regain full function of the affected area.
