Orthopedic Injuries
Orthopedic injuries refer to damage to the body's musculoskeletal system, which includes bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles. Common types of orthopedic injuries include fractures, sprains, strains, and dislocations. These injuries can occur due to various reasons, such as sports activities, falls, or accidents.
Treatment for orthopedic injuries often involves rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE), along with physical therapy to restore function. In some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to repair severe injuries. Proper diagnosis and management are essential for effective recovery and to prevent long-term complications.
