Orthopaedic surgeons treat conditions related to the musculoskeletal system, including bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. This includes fractures, arthritis, sports injuries, and congenital conditions.

Joint replacement surgery involves removing a damaged joint and replacing it with an artificial implant. Common joints replaced include the hip, knee, and shoulder.

Preparing for orthopaedic surgery typically involves pre-operative tests, discussions with your surgeon about the procedure, and instructions on medications, fasting, and arranging post-surgery care at home.

Rehabilitation options include physical therapy, occupational therapy, and specific exercises designed to restore mobility, strength, and functionality to the affected area.

Non-surgical treatments include medications, physical therapy, injections, braces, and lifestyle modifications to manage pain and improve function.

HB Electrophoresis is a diagnostic test that separates and identifies different types of hemoglobin in the blood to diagnose hemoglobin disorders.

This test is used to diagnose conditions like sickle cell disease and thalassemia, monitor disease progression, and screen for hemoglobin disorders.

No special preparation is needed. You can eat and drink normally, but inform your healthcare provider about any medications or health conditions.

Results are typically available within 2 to 3 days after the test.

The results provide information on the different types of hemoglobin present and their quantities, helping to diagnose and manage hemoglobin disorders and genetic conditions.

Preparation includes a pre-surgical evaluation, imaging studies, and discussing the procedure and recovery process with your medical team.
