Orthopaedic Surgeon Warsaw and Płock
Orthopaedics and traumatology is a branch of medicine focused on the prevention, diagnosis, conservative treatment, and surgical treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. Disorders of the musculoskeletal system disrupt its normal functioning, leading to reduced mobility and untreated conditions may result in permanent disability. Often, patients experience debilitating pain. Treatment of orthopaedic diseases should be comprehensive, involving collaboration with a rehabilitation specialist for properly coordinated patient recovery, and in some cases, cooperation with other specialists such as rheumatologists and neurologists.
Orthopaedics deals with various aspects including: prevention and correction of postural defects, treatment of developmental abnormalities, restoration of musculoskeletal function, degenerative changes, inflammatory conditions, and disorders of the muscular system.
Traumatology, on the other hand, addresses various pathologies of the musculoskeletal system such as fractures, sprains, dislocations, and soft tissue injuries. Treatment methods may involve both surgical and conservative approaches (immobilization using bandages, casts, braces, etc.).
Scope of competence of an orthopaedic surgeon covers, among other things:
- treating spinal diseases (e.g. degenerative changes of the spine, discopathy, disc herniation, spinal canal stenosis)
- treating postural and lower limb defects (e.g. spinal curvature, knock knees, bowlegs, flat feet, hallux valgus and other)
