Orthopedics is a medical specialisation that focuses on the musculoskeletal system. This system comprises muscles, bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons.
Orthopedists today treat patients of all ages, from babies with club feet to young athletes needing arthroscopic surgery to elderly patients with arthritis. They used to specialise in treating children with spine and limb deformities. Because anyone, regardless of age, can break a bone or suffer from issues affecting bones and muscles.
