Yes, pediatric orthopedists specialize in treating musculoskeletal conditions in children. They handle growth-related issues, congenital abnormalities, fractures, and conditions like scoliosis or limb deformities.

2. What are the most common orthopedic procedures?

Common orthopedic procedures include fracture repairs, joint replacements, arthroscopy, and spine surgeries. Non-surgical treatments like therapy for arthritis or tendonitis are also recommended, and doctors may sometimes suggest visiting a physiotherapist to aid recovery.

3. Can orthopedists treat sports or trauma injuries?

Orthopedists treat sports injuries such as ligament tears, joint dislocations, and muscle strains. They also manage trauma cases, including fractures and spinal injuries, focusing on rehabilitation and restoring mobility.

4. Will the doctor order an x-ray or tests on my first visit?

The doctor will first examine you to decide which tests are necessary. Typically:

X-rays are often done during the first visit if required.
MRIs may need a separate appointment and are ordered after the initial evaluation if necessary.
CT scans are less common but may be recommended for complex bone conditions.
