PEDIATRIC ORTHOPEDICS
Orthopedics is the branch that investigates and treats musculoskeletal (bone, joint, muscle) problems in children from birth to adulthood. As children constantly develop, their body reacts differently to injuries, infections and deformities than to adults. Sometimes, something that is perceived as a problem is but a variant of growth that is eradicated over time. Many of the bone and joint problems in children never show up in adults. But even if the same problem occurs in an adult and a child, the investigation and treatment is completely different.
Some of the incidents encountered in the orthopedic field are:
- Deformations of the upper and lower limbs as well as the spine
- Walking problems
- Fractures of the bones
- Bone and joint inflammation
