Understanding the Role of an Orthopedic Surgeon

An orthopedic surgeon specializes in the treatment, diagnosis, and prevention of conditions affecting the joints, bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

Determining the Right Time for Orthopedic Surgery

The decision to undergo orthopedic surgery is based on several factors. Your orthopedic surgeon will help assess whether surgery is necessary. Key considerations include the presence of pain, reduced mobility or stability, and the impact of the condition or injury on your overall quality of life.

Recovery Duration After Orthopedic Surgery

The time required for full recovery and realizing the benefits of orthopedic surgery depends on various factors. Some patients may recover in a few weeks, while others may need several months. Depending on your overall health, you may be discharged on the same day as surgery or the following day.
