All About Orthopedic Doctors

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.
