ORTHOPAEDICS

Orthopaedics is the branch of medicine that deals with diseases and injuries of the musculoskeletal system, i.e. the joints, bones, and muscles.

WHAT DOES THE CLINIC OFFER PATIENTS?

A clinical examination can help us identify the primary cause of the problem and recommend additional diagnostic tests. We administer local analgesics (blocks, infiltrations) or tablets. Physiotherapy is recommended, and surgery is considered in more advanced conditions. We also assist patients in getting a second opinion on their health conditions.

If you are experiencing uncomfortable movement due to joint deterioration, doctors may choose to inject hyaluronic acid into the joint. This is the most popular modern treatment for degenerative joint conditions. Hyaluronic acid is a highly viscous, clear liquid that improves the smoothness and mechanical properties of worn cartilage, decreasing its wear. Hyaluronic acid is applied to large joints – knee, hip, and ankle. The hyaluronic acid has to be applied 1 to 3 times. This procedure is expected to reduce pain and improve mobility for several months.

WHEN TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT?

If you’re experiencing mobility issues (neck, shoulder, spine, hip, knee, foot, etc.), including pain, swelling, deformity, lameness or reduced mobility.
