Orthopedics: Understanding Musculoskeletal Health

1. ORTHOPEDICS Understanding Musculoskeletal Health Strong bones and healthy joints are the foundation of an active life. Prioritize your musculoskeletal health to move freely and live fully. Presented by Dr Mukesh Shaker www.mukeshshaker.com

2. Introduction Dr Mukesh Shaker to Orthopedics Importance of Orthopedic Health Supports movement and daily activities Prevents disability and chronic pain Improves overall well-being and longevity Orthopedics is a branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of musculoskeletal disorders. It deals with conditions affecting bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and nerves. Maintaining orthopedic health is essential for mobility, strength, and overall quality of life. Common Orthopedic Conditions Arthritis and joint pain Bone fractures and injuries Spinal disorders such as herniated discs www.drmukeshshaker.com

3. Dr Mukesh Shaker Anatomy of the Musculoskeletal System The musculoskeletal system is a complex network of bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, and tendons that provides structural support, enables movement, and protects vital organs. Bones form the framework of the body, while joints allow flexibility and mobility. Muscles generate force for movement, and ligaments and tendons provide stability and connection between structures. Together, these components ensure proper function, balance, and coordination, playing a crucial role in daily activities and overall health.

Dr Mukesh Shaker Common Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis Orthopedic Conditions Osteoarthritis degeneration Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder that affects joints occurs due to cartilage Orthopedic disorders can affect people of all ages. Some are caused by aging, while others result from injury, overuse, or medical conditions. Fractures and Dislocations Fractures result from trauma, stress, or medical conditions Dislocations occur when bones slip out of their normal position Back and Spine Disorders Herniated compression and pain Scoliosis leads to abnormal curvature of the spine Sciatica results from pressure on the sciatic nerve discs cause nerve

5. Diagnosis Hanover and Tyke Shaker Dr Mukesh Clinical Examination and History in Orthopedics Imaging Techniques Diagnosis in Orthopedics involves a comprehensive evaluation of the musculoskeletal system to identify injuries, diseases, or deformities affecting bones, joints, muscles, and ligaments. It begins with a clinical examination, including a review of medical history, symptom assessment, and physical tests for mobility, strength, and pain levels. Imaging techniques such as X- rays, MRI, CT scans, and ultrasounds provide detailed internal views to detect fractures, arthritis, or soft tissue damage. Laboratory tests like blood analysis and bone density scans help diagnose conditions such as infections, osteoporosis, and inflammatory disorders. An accurate diagnosis is essential for determining the best treatment plan, ensuring effective recovery and long-term orthopedic health. Laboratory Tests Diagnostic Tools www.drmukeshshanker.com

6. Orthopedic Medications and Physiotherapy Medications and physiotherapy help manage pain, reduce inflammation, and restore mobility in orthopedic conditions, promoting recovery and joint health. Treatments and Procedures Orthopedic Treatments and Procedures focus on managing conditions through surgical approaches. treatments include medications to reduce pain and inflammation, physiotherapy to restore mobility and injections such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for targeted relief. When conservative methods are ineffective, surgical procedures may be required. These include joint replacement surgery for severe arthritis, arthroscopy for minimally invasive joint repairs, and spinal surgeries like laminectomy or spinal fusion for back disorders. rehabilitation plays a crucial role in recovery, helping patients regain function, prevent complications, and improve long- term orthopedic health. musculoskeletal non-surgical Non-surgical and Surgical Procedures Surgical procedures in orthopedics include joint arthroscopy, and spinal surgeries, aimed at restoring function and relieving pain. strength, corticosteroids and or replacement, Post-treatment Rehabilitation and Recovery Rehabilitation and Recovery focus on restoring strength, mobility, and physiotherapy, exercises, and lifestyle adjustments after injury or surgery. function through www.drmukeshshanker.com

7. PEDIATRIC Bone Development in Children and Geriatric Orthopedics Bone Development in Children is a continuous process influenced by growth plates, nutrition, and physical activity. Strong bones form through calcium, vitamin D, and exercise. Early detection of conditions like scoliosis or rickets ensures proper growth, mobility, and long-term musculoskeletal health. Common Pediatric Orthopedic Conditions Common Pediatric Orthopedic Conditions include congenital disorders like clubfoot and hip dysplasia, growth-related issues such as scoliosis, and fractures from injuries. Early diagnosis and treatment, including bracing, therapy, or surgery, help ensure proper bone development and long-term mobility. Orthopedic Care for the Elderly Orthopedic Care for the Elderly focuses on managing age-related conditions like osteoporosis, arthritis, and fractures. It includes fall prevention, joint care, mobility exercises, and treatments like medication, physiotherapy, or surgery to maintain independence and improve quality of life.
