Preventive health care involves measures taken to prevent diseases or conditions before they start. This includes regular check-ups, screenings, and vaccinations.

Common chronic diseases managed include diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), asthma, arthritis, and heart disease.

The frequency of health check-ups depends on your age, health status, and risk factors. Generally, adults should have a check-up at least once a year.

Women’s health services include gynaecological exams, prenatal care, family planning, breast health screenings, and menopause management.

Paediatric care includes well-child visits, vaccinations, developmental screenings, and management of childhood illnesses and conditions.

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.

Risks may include infection, nerve or blood vessel damage, joint stiffness, and complications related to the limb lengthening device.
