Frequently Asked Questions
What should I expect during a first orthopedic consultation?
The provider will review your history, perform a physical examination focused on the affected joint or area, and may order imaging such as X-ray or MRI. A treatment plan will be discussed, starting with the least invasive options appropriate for your condition.
How do I know if my joint pain needs orthopedic evaluation?
Pain that persists beyond a few weeks, limits daily activity, worsens with rest, or follows a significant injury warrants evaluation. Sudden swelling, inability to bear weight, or a deformity after an injury should be assessed promptly.
What is the difference between orthopedics and physical therapy?
Orthopedic surgeons diagnose and treat musculoskeletal conditions medically and surgically. Physical therapists provide rehabilitation and exercise-based treatment. Both disciplines often work together, with PT frequently used before or after surgical intervention.
