Orthopedics and Traumatology

Orthopedics unit is the department where
important diseases for our skeletal system and body structure are treated. This
section deals with the treatment of disorders that usually occur in bones and
joints. As it is known, our bones, which provide our movement system, need
to act in integrity in order to have a healthy function. Since a problem
or a problem in the bones will disrupt the general function of our skeletal
system, it also causes some diseases. For this reason, orthopedics
department is used in the treatment of diseases. The orthopedics
department should be consulted not only for bones and joints, but also for the
treatment of fibers and ligaments that allow muscles to move.

Treatment of disease due to coup

Especially in the treatment of fractures
caused by traffic accidents or a hard object, the treatment process begins with
a number of procedures in the orthopedics branch. Especially in anatomical
disorders due to fracture of the bones, it is very important to ensure that the
broken bone recovers properly from the point where it is broken. In
fracture cases, film methods such as tomography and MR are applied and the
final state of the broken bone is seen and a treatment method is decided. Since
there is a limitation of movement, especially for the reunification of the
broken bones, the orthopedic plaster method is applied and the bone is boiled
at the point where it is broken. However, if the broken bones are cut into
very thin pieces, surgery may be in question. In such a case, it is very
important to regroup the lost parts due to tissue and bone loss and to ensure
the integrity of the movement. If there is too much bone deficiency in
large-scale bone fractures, bone integrity is provided by providing support
with platinum. However, in bone fractures with or without platinum,
physical therapy methods should be applied to eliminate undesirable conditions
such as calcification after orthopedic treatment.

Foreword of orthopedics in fiber and link breaks

The fibers and ligaments that provide the
coordination of our muscles with our bones and help us move easily have a very
sensitive structure. Especially in cases of sudden movement and sports
branches, fiber and ligament rupture cases are frequently seen. In case of
rupture of the fibers surrounding the muscles, edema occurs around it. Also,
meniscus tears in the knee joint also cause the start of a very painful
process. Orthopedic specialists perform repair procedures in meniscus
surgeries. However, the problematic area should not be moved for a while
after the meniscus surgery. As a result of the programs and treatment
given by orthopedic doctors in this regard, physical therapy recommendations should
definitely be evaluated.

Apart from fiber rupture, the breakage of the
bonds, which is another important structure, causes quite big problems. The
structure called the ligament is a structure that connects bones to each other
and enables bones that are independent of each other to move holistically. As
the bridging order between the bones is disrupted as a result of the ligament
rupture, it causes involuntary movements. Orthopedic surgeries due to
ligament rupture are much more difficult than those performed for meniscus
tears. Both during and after the treatment, patients should be very
careful and not make sudden movements. Otherwise, there is a risk of
rupture of the damaged ties.

Other treatment methods interested in orthopedics

Complaints due to sprains are also evaluated
by this unit. Resting with a splint is used in the treatment of bones that
cannot move due to bone and tissue crush due to an impact in the body. At
the same time, it can be said that this branch of medicine is effective in
deformities in the bones due to the advancement of age. In addition to
other branches, orthopedics deals with bone diseases that occur due to the lack
of certain minerals that are especially important for the body. Since
calcium, which is an important nutrient source for the development of bones, is
insufficient in some people, undesirable disorders such as bone resorption
occur after a certain age. Relevant tests are conducted to determine
exactly how the rate and type of bone resorption are, and treatment methods are
developed in this regard. As a result of these tests, calcium deficiency
causing osteoporosis is detected and an important step is taken to solve this
problem by recommending the patient’s supplemental calcium drugs and
calcium-based nutrition.

The importance of orthopedics in hernal diseases

Hernia is closely related to many medical
branches. For this reason, a number of medical branches develop a
treatment method in coordination with certain diseases and determine their
treatment methods. Since hernia complaints, which is one of these
diseases, are caused by the intramuscular nerves trapped between the bones,
orthopedics determine important methods in the treatment of bone disorders that
occur in the hernia area. There are very important points that patients
should pay attention to in diseases belonging to this branch. First of
all, the medicines and treatment methods prescribed by doctors must be fully
implemented. It is of great importance to follow the recommended actions
during the treatment MI.
