Treatment options for orthopedic trauma vary depending on the specific condition. They can range from conservative approaches such as immobilization, casting, bracing, and rehabilitation to advanced surgical procedures when necessary. Orthopedic trauma can affect the bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, and surrounding soft tissues after an accident or sudden injury.
At LBJI, we diagnose and treat the following traumatic orthopedic conditions:
Orthopedic trauma is the treatment of serious injuries involving bones, joints, and soft tissues caused by falls, vehicle accidents, sports injuries, or other sudden events. It commonly includes fractures, dislocations, and injuries that require urgent orthopedic care.
You should seek orthopedic trauma care after a broken bone, joint dislocation, severe swelling, inability to bear weight, deformity, or significant pain after an injury. Prompt evaluation can help reduce complications and support proper healing.
Fracture treatment depends on the location, severity, and stability of the break. Some fractures heal with casting, splinting, or bracing, while others require surgery to restore alignment and stabilize the bone with plates, screws, rods, or pins.
Fracture surgery is performed to realign broken bones and secure them in the proper position while they heal. Depending on the injury, your surgeon may use plates, screws, rods, pins, or external fixation devices. The goal is to restore function, reduce pain, and promote healing.
If a fracture heals slowly, heals in poor alignment, or does not heal at all, additional treatment may be recommended. This can include bone grafting, revision fixation, or other reconstructive procedures to improve healing and restore function.
