Orthopedic doctors, also known as orthopedic surgeons, specialize in diagnosing and treating conditions related to the musculoskeletal system. This system includes bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles. They handle a variety of issues, from fractures and arthritis to sports injuries and congenital disorders. These specialists use both surgical and non-surgical methods to help patients recover and improve their mobility. Common treatments may involve physical therapy, medication, or surgical procedures like joint replacement. Orthopedic doctors often work closely with other healthcare professionals to provide comprehensive care for their patients.
