How We Diagnose Orthopedic Conditions:

Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment. Our Orthopedics Department offers a variety of diagnostic tools and procedures, including:

  • Physical Examination: Assessing your movement, strength, and flexibility to identify any issues.
  • Imaging Tests: Such as X-rays, MRIs, CT scans, and ultrasounds to get detailed pictures of bones, joints, and soft tissues.
  • Bone Density Tests: To check for osteoporosis and assess bone strength.
  • Joint Aspiration: Removing fluid from a joint for testing to diagnose conditions like infections or gout.
  • Nerve Conduction Studies: Measuring the speed and strength of signals traveling between nerves to diagnose conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome.

Treatment Options:

Our Orthopedics Department provides a wide range of treatment options tailored to each patient’s specific needs. These include:

  • Medications: To manage pain, reduce inflammation, and treat infections. This may include pain relievers, anti-inflammatory drugs, and antibiotics.
