Orthopedics focuses on the treatment of the bones, muscles and tendons (musculoskeletal system).
All of them need to work together to allow you to walk correctly. Orthopedists usually
specialize in treating a specific part of the body, some work exclusively with athletes, while
others specialize in multiple areas.
According to the World Health Association, orthopedic conditions are the second largest cause of
disabilities worldwide, they can show up on anyone, no matter the age.

Herniated disk
A herniated disk occurs when a portion of the nucleus pushes through the outer ring of the disk,
causing pain and numbness in the neck or lower back. Specialists recommend non-surgical
treatments like therapy and medication. If pain persists, surgery can be advised. The procedure
consists of making a small incision either in the lumbar or cervical area of the spine to remove
the herniated part of the disk. In some cases, the entire disk needs to be removed along with a
bone graft.
Bone fracture repair
A bone fracture occurs when the bone is exposed to a high impact, force or stress. Most
fractures are caused by a fall, an accident or medical conditions that weaken the bones.
Depending on the severity of the fracture a cast or an external fixation will be used to limit
the movement and return the bone to its normal alignment.
