What Happens During an Orthopaedic Consultation?
During your appointment, your orthopaedic specialist will review your symptoms, previous injuries, medical history, and any prior treatments or surgeries. The consultation may also include questions about your daily activities, occupation, and sporting habits, as these factors can play an important role in musculoskeletal health.
A physical examination will then be performed to assess the affected joints, muscles, and overall function of the musculoskeletal system.
Based on the findings, your specialist may recommend conservative treatment options such as medication, physiotherapy, or therapeutic exercise. When necessary, surgical treatment options may also be discussed.
Joint Aspiration and Injection Therapy
In certain conditions, the lining of a joint may produce excess fluid, leading to swelling, discomfort, pain, and restricted movement.
Joint aspiration allows the removal of accumulated fluid from the joint. When clinically indicated, medication may also be administered directly into the affected joint to help reduce inflammation and relieve symptoms.
Book an Orthopaedic Consultation
Whether you are recovering from an injury or dealing with persistent joint or musculoskeletal pain, early assessment can help identify the cause of your symptoms and guide appropriate treatment.
