Orthopaedic surgery is a medical specialty focused on diagnosing and treating conditions related to the musculoskeletal system, which includes bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles. Surgeons in this field perform procedures to repair injuries, correct deformities, and alleviate pain, often using both surgical and non-surgical methods. Common procedures in orthopaedic surgery include joint replacements, arthroscopy, and fracture repairs. These surgeries can help improve mobility and quality of life for patients suffering from conditions like arthritis, sports injuries, or traumatic injuries. Orthopaedic surgeons often work closely with physical therapists to ensure effective rehabilitation after surgery.
