What orthopaedic surgeons treat
Orthopaedics covers the bones, joints, ligaments and muscles — everything that lets you move. An orthopaedic surgeon treats fractures and sports injuries, manages wear-and-tear conditions such as osteoarthritis and frozen shoulder, and operates when joint damage stops responding to other treatment. Most orthopaedic problems are treated without surgery first: physiotherapy, injections, bracing and activity changes come before an operation is considered.
An obviously deformed limb after an injury, an inability to bear any weight, or sudden loss of bladder or bowel control alongside back pain needs emergency care the same day, not an outpatient appointment.

When to see a orthopaedic surgeon
These are the reasons people most often book this department. None of them is a diagnosis — that is what the consultation is for.
What a consultation may include
Your doctor decides which of these, if any, actually answer the question — booking a scan before anyone has examined you often means the wrong scan.
- X-ray of the affected joint or spine
- MRI for ligament, cartilage and disc detail
- DEXA bone-density scan
- Blood tests for inflammatory arthritis
- Gait and range-of-movement assessment
