Joint pain or injury can be caused by a variety of factors including overuse, age-related wear and tear, and underlying medical conditions. In some cases, the exact cause is unknown. An orthopaedic specialist will perform a physical exam and may order imaging tests, such as an X-ray or MRI, to determine the cause of joint pain or injury.
Generally, the specialist will recommend the least invasive treatment options first, like lifestyle changes and physical therapy, before considering surgery. If these options are not successful in relieving the pain, then the specialist may suggest exploring surgical options. Surgery may be necessary for certain conditions. An orthopaedic specialist will determine the best treatment plan based on the individual patient's circumstances.
Recovery time varies depending on the type of injury or surgery. If a patient has a more serious injury, he or she may need a longer period of time to heal. A specialist may also suggest physical therapy to help the patient regain strength and mobility. An orthopaedic specialist will be able to provide an estimate of recovery time based on the patient's specific circumstances. What can I do to prevent future injuries or manage my condition? Physical therapy can help strengthen the muscles and tendons around the affected joint, helping to prevent future injuries. Additionally, an orthopaedic specialist can help create a tailored exercise plan to strengthen the muscles and help the patient manage their condition. This may also involve lifestyle changes, such as exercise, weight management, and avoiding certain activities.

Depending on the cause of the joint pain, the orthopaedic specialist may recommend lifestyle changes, such as exercises to reduce inflammation, physical therapy to increase strength and range of motion, medications to reduce pain and swelling, or surgery to repair or replace the joint.
