ORTHOPAEDICS

Orthopedics is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, correction, prevention, and treatment of patients with skeletal deformities - disorders of the bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, nerves and skin. These elements make up the musculoskeletal system.

Your body's musculoskeletal system is a complex system of bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles and nerves and allows you to move, work and be active. Once devoted to the care of children with spine and limb deformities, orthopedics now cares for patients of all ages, from newborns with clubfeet, to young athletes requiring arthroscopic surgery, to older people with arthritis.

Our specialists and well-trained surgeons in PMS Hospital are world-renowned for developing and implementing state-of-the-art techniques to diagnose and treat bone and joint disorders. Our main aim is to provide the highest level of care available so that we may return our patients to their daily activities as quickly as possible.

We take pride in offering full spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions from sprains and strains, limb sparing oncology procedures, from carpel tunnel syndrome to complex spinal reconstruction. We are specialist in providing orthopaedic surgery solutions for those who may be experiencing problems with major joint areas including their knees, shoulders, feet, ankles, hands, wrists and hips.

    Our Orthopaedic unit offers prevention, diagnosis and management of various orthopaedic conditions related to sports and lifestyle in collaboration with our physiotherapist and exercise specialist.

    Sports injuries often occur as a result of errors in training and activity and can often be prevented by understanding how the body responds to exercise. Poor quality equipment can also play a role. Once an injury has occurred, early diagnosis is important. This can usually be achieved with good history taking and examination but imaging is often necessary. Most of the injuries can be treated by applying relative rest, physical therapy and the principles of rehabilitation. Occasionally orthosis, medication and injections are required. In rare cases only, the surgery is required. We are therefore very keen to encourage our patients to exercise in a safe and effective way to improve their wellbeing and to reduce their medication requirements.
