An orthopedic doctor is a professional who specializes in bone related conditions.
Situations when you should see the doctor
There are plenty of situations when you should see the doctor. Some of these situations include:
Difficulty performing everyday tasks:
It's common to have joint and bone discomfort especially if you are
old; however, if you have been having the discomfort for a long time to
the extent that you are unable to execute your daily activities, it's
time to visit the doctor. Some of the tasks that you might be unable to
perform include: cleaning the utensils, climbing the stairs, or even
sitting.
Chronic pain: You are said to be suffering from
chronic pain if have been having the pain for the last 12 weeks. When
you have an injury it's common to have the pain for sometimes, but it
shouldn't last for several weeks. Sometimes the injury might have caused
a complication that you should address before it gets worse.
Soft tissue injury that hasn't improved for two days:
If you have fallen or slipped you might have a soft tissue injury. In
most cases, soft tissue injuries heal within a matter of hours. If you
have an injury and it's now days and you are still feeling some pain,
it's time to contact a professional who will help you in getting over
it.
Instability when walking or standing: A telltale sign
that there is something wrong with your joints is feeling shaky or
wobbly when performing basic tasks such as walking, sitting, or
standing. You should consult a professional who will diagnose the
condition and determine the source of the instability.
Reduced range of motion:
A reduced range of the movement is a sign of tightening of the joints.
It's also common to have a compromised range of motion when you have
arthritis. When the condition has reached a level where the motion is
compromised, it's a high time that you visit a specialist who will
diagnose the condition and give you the necessary medications. In some
cases, the professional might require you to undertake surgery
especially if the situation has brought about a number of complications.
You just had an injury as an athlete:
Athletes are known for their high-intensity workouts. If you are a
footballer or any other professional and you just had an injury on the
field, you shouldn't ignore it-visit a professional as soon as possible.
While the injury might seem simple on the surface, it might have
resulted in a number of complications that might put your life in
danger.
What to expect from the orthopedic doctor
When
you visit the orthopedic physician, there are many things you should
expect from him/her. Some of the things include your history. The expert
will like to know how you got the injury and how long you have been
having the condition. To make the work easy for the doctor, answer the
questions as honestly as you can.
The doctor might also want to
undertake a number of tests to confirm the extent of the damage. Again
you should comply to make the process a success.
