Orthopedic surgery, commonly known as orthopedics, is a highly specialized medical field dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and rehabilitation of disorders affecting the musculoskeletal system. This complex system includes bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and nerves, all of which work in perfect coordination to support movement, stability, and overall physical function. When any part of this system is compromised due to injury, disease, degeneration, or congenital abnormalities, it can severely affect a person’s mobility, independence, and quality of life. Through both surgical and non-surgical interventions, orthopedic specialists aim to relieve pain, restore function, improve mobility, and help patients return to an active, healthy lifestyle.
