You should consider seeing an orthopedic surgeon if you experience persistent pain, swelling, stiffness, limited mobility, or deformity in your bones or joints. Additionally, if you have suffered a traumatic injury or have a musculoskeletal condition affecting your daily life, consulting an orthopedic surgeon is advisable.

Orthopedic surgeons perform a variety of surgical procedures, including joint replacement surgery (e.g., hip replacement, knee replacement), arthroscopic surgery, fracture repair, spinal surgery, soft tissue repair, ligament reconstruction, and corrective osteotomy.
