The following are a few key signs that it’s time to see an orthopedic surgeon:
When you first see your orthopedic surgeon, they’ll discuss your symptoms, medical history, family history, daily activities and more to help identify what may be causing your symptoms. They may also perform physical tests, order X-rays, an MRI or other diagnostic tests. Finally, they’ll discuss treatment options with you.
You may be hesitant about scheduling an appointment with a nearby orthopedic surgeon because you don’t want surgery. However, our orthopedic surgeons only recommend surgery if they believe it’s the best treatment path for you. Sometimes surgery or a joint replacement isn’t necessary and initial treatment may involve steroid injections or other non-surgical treatments.
Enjoy a more active life today – so don’t wait. Schedule an appointment today to visit one of our local orthopedic surgeons.
