Orthopedics & Rheumatology

Orthopedic sports medicine is a branch of orthopaedics that focuses on treating musculoskeletal pathologies caused by sports participation. Timing is the most challenging subject to deal with when dealing with athletes.

Acute traumatology is the study, diagnosis, and treatment of severe, acute physical injuries such as those caused by a vehicle accident or a gunshot wound that require immediate medical intervention.

After arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, liposomal bupivacaine may help to minimize pain and narcotic use. Preoperative and postoperative corticosteroid injections can be used in rotator cuff repair. Infection and detrimental effects on healing are two concerns with perioperative injections.

The following are some of the symptoms of a fracture or a post-traumatic orthopedic condition: A obviously deformed limb or joint, sometimes with exposed bone or damaged skin (an open or compound fracture) Fever. Pain that might be minor to severe.

The detection and treatment of benign and malignant tumors of the bone and soft tissues is the focus of this medical specialty. Ewing sarcoma, osteosarcoma, and other cancers of the musculoskeletal system are among these tumors.

A piece of specialized equipment meant to rectify abnormalities or preserve and restore the function of the human skeletal system, its articulations, and associated structures is referred to as an orthopedic device.

Muscles in the human body, whether skeletal, cardiac, or smooth, act to generate force and movement. Energy metabolism and storage are also aided by skeletal muscle. Cardiac muscle drives blood and ensures that each cell in the human body is properly oxygenated and maintained. Humans have a biological mechanism that causes movement called the muscular system. Muscle is a contractile tissue produced from embryonic germ cells' mesodermal layer. Its job is to generate force and cause motion, whether it's locomotion or internal organ movement. 

Soft-tissue rheumatism is a group of diseases that cause pain, swelling, or inflammation in the tissues and structures around a joint that is not caused by arthritis. Tendinitis, tenosynovitis, bursitis, capsulitis, enthesitis, myofascial pain syndrome, and fibromyalgia are among the illnesses.

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, affecting millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of the bones wears down over time.

Arthroplasty is a surgical technique that restores a joint's function. The bones can be resurfaced to reconstruct a joint. It's also possible to employ prosthesis (artificial joint). Arthritis can affect the joints in a variety of ways. If you have inflammation in a joint, have injured a joint, or have damaged a joint over time. You can have arthroscopy on any joint.

Pubic symphyseal expansion is common with spontaneous vaginal birth. After a complication-free birth, most alterations are reversible. Peripartum symphysis separation, on the other hand, is uncommon.
