• Knee pain
• Hip pain
• Shoulder, elbow, wrist, or hand pain
• Ankle or foot pain

When Should You Seen An Orthopedic Surgeon

You don’t have to live with pain. In fact, there’s a good chance your symptoms could improve with treatment that may not even require surgery. If you are experiencing any pain or dysfunction, it’s always a good idea to schedule an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon so they can evaluate your condition.

You should be evaluated by an orthopedic surgeon if you’re experiencing any of the following:

• Pain, stiffness, or discomfort that makes daily activities difficult
• Chronic pain (pain that has lasted longer than 12 weeks)
• Decreased range of motion
• Instability while walking or standing or trouble falling
• Progressive weakness or numbness in arms and legs
• Soft tissue injury that hasn’t improved over a few days
