Tendon and Ligament Disorders

• Tendinitis: Inflammation of tendons due to overuse. 
• Bursitis: Inflammation of bursae, fluid-filled sacs that reduce friction in joints. 
• Ligament Injuries: Such as ACL tears or sprains due to trauma or sports injuries. 

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: A nerve compression disorder affecting the wrist, causing pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand and fingers.

Developmental and Congenital Conditions

• Clubfoot: A birth defect where one or both feet are twisted out of shape or position. 
• Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH): Involves the hip joint in children and infants.  

Paget’s Disease of Bone: A long-term disease that makes bones larger and deformed by causing unusual bone remodeling. 
 

Ankylosing Spondylitis: An inflammatory form of arthritis of the spine, resulting in chronic pain and stiffness.

Role of Orthopaedic Hospitals & Specialists: Orthopaedic hospitals and specialists play a critical role in the diagnosis, treatment, and management of musculoskeletal disorders. They provide both conservative (non-surgical) and surgical care, helping patients recover from injuries, manage chronic conditions, and maintain optimal mobility and quality of life. 

Expert Diagnosis: Orthopaedic specialists are trained to accurately diagnose a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. They use: 

• Advanced imaging techniques (X-rays, MRIs, CT scans) 
• Comprehensive physical examinations 
• Patient history analysis: These diagnostic tools help identify the root cause of pain, injury, or mobility issues, whether it’s a simple sprain or a complex condition like arthritis or a bone tumor. 

Personalized Treatment Plans: Orthopaedic specialists create tailored treatment plans based on each patient’s condition, needs, and lifestyle. They focus on: 

• Pain management (medications, injections) 
• Physical therapy (rehabilitation exercises, mobility training) 
• Lifestyle modifications (diet, activity changes): The goal is to optimize recovery and prevent further injury or degeneration. 

Conservative Treatments: Before resorting to surgery, orthopaedic specialists often employ non-surgical approaches, such as: 

• Medications (anti-inflammatory drugs, pain relievers) 
• Physical therapy to enhance muscle strength and flexibilityOrthotics and bracing to stabilize joints and prevent further damage 
• Injections (steroid, hyaluronic acid) to reduce inflammation or pain 

Surgical Interventions: When non-surgical treatments are not enough, orthopaedic professionals are trained to conduct a broad spectrum of operations, including: 

• Joint replacement (hip, knee, shoulder) 
• Spinal surgery (discectomy, spinal fusion) 
• Repair of fractures with plates, screws, or rods 
• Arthroscopic surgery (minimally invasive joint procedures): Orthopaedic surgeons use advanced techniques, ensuring quicker recovery times, less scarring, and better outcomes for patients. 

Rehabilitation & Post-Surgical Care: After surgery or injury, rehabilitation is key to regaining strength and mobility. Orthopedic hospitals offer: 

• Physiotherapy services to aid recovery 
• Pain management strategies (e.g., nerve blocks, medication) 
• Guided rehabilitation programs to help patients gradually return to their normal activities 
• Follow-up care to ensure that healing progresses well and complications are avoided 

Specialized Care in Subfields: Orthopaedic hospitals usually employ experts in a number of subspecialties, such as: 

• Sports medicine: Treating athletic injuries such as ACL tears, rotator cuff injuries, and tendonitis 
• Pediatric orthopedics: Managing musculoskeletal conditions in children, like scoliosis, hip dysplasia, and congenital disorders 
• Spine surgery: Expertise in spinal disorders, ranging from herniated discs to spinal deformities 
• Joint replacement: Performing knee, hip, and shoulder replacements for patients with degenerative joint diseases. 
• Wrist and hand surgery: Correcting conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, and tendon damage 

Prevention & Education: Orthopaedic specialists also focus on preventive care to help patients avoid injuries and chronic conditions: 

• Ergonomic advice for workplaces 
• Sports injury prevention 
• Bone health education, especially for aging populations at risk of osteoporosis 
• Posture correction and movement strategies to avoid stress on the musculoskeletal system 

Multidisciplinary Care: Orthopaedic specialists often work with other medical professionals, including: 

• Physiatrists (rehabilitation doctors) 
• Pain management specialists 
• Rheumatologists (for inflammatory joint diseases) 
• Neurologists (for nerve-related issues) 
• Nutritionists (for bone and joint health) 

Innovative Treatments & Research: Orthopaedic hospitals are also centers for advanced treatments and research in musculoskeletal health, offering: 

• Stem cell therapy 
• Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections 
• Robotic-assisted surgeries for precision and quicker recovery 
  They stay at the forefront of new medical technologies to improve patient outcomes.
