Paediatric orthopaedics

Paediatric orthopaedics is a subspecialty of orthopaedics that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal problems in children. It is a crucial field of medicine as children's bones and joints are still developing and growing, and any issues must be addressed promptly and correctly to ensure normal growth and development.

At Saudi German Hospital, paediatric orthopaedics is provided with the latest technologies and facilities to ensure that children receive the best care possible. Some of the key sub-specialties within paediatric orthopaedics at Saudi German Hospital include:

When should you consult with an Orthopaedic Expert?

An orthopaedic should be consulted when an individual experiences persistent pain or discomfort in their bones, joints, or muscles. This could be due to injuries such as fractures, sprains, or dislocations, chronic conditions such as arthritis or osteoporosis, or developmental disorders in children. Other reasons to seek an orthopaedic's consultation include deformities, such as scoliosis or clubfoot, neuromuscular conditions that affect bones and joints, and limitations in mobility or function due to joint or bone problems.

Moreover, if an individual experiences any symptoms that affect their bones, joints, or muscles, it is always best to seek prompt medical attention from an orthopaedic to receive an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

What should you expect from your orthopaedic doctor?

When visiting an orthopaedic doctor, you can expect the following:

• A thorough medical evaluation: The doctor will ask you about your symptoms, medical history, and any other relevant information to understand your condition.
• A physical examination: Your doctor will then examine the affected area and check your range of motion, strength, and other physical characteristics.
• Diagnostic tests: Depending on the diagnosis, the doctor may order imaging tests such as X-rays, MRIs, or CT scans to get a better understanding of your condition.
• A diagnosis and treatment plan: Based on the evaluation and tests, the doctor will make a diagnosis and develop a treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs.
• Explanation of the treatment options: After the diagnosis & treatment plan, the doctor will explain the various treatment options available, including the benefits, risks, and expected outcomes of each option.
• A clear and concise explanation: Your doctor should then provide you with clear and concise information about your condition, the treatment options, and what you can expect from the treatment.
• A plan for follow-up care: Last but not the least, the doctor will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and make any necessary changes to the treatment plan.
