Sports medicine is not a medical specialty in itself. The doctors have special training to restore function to injured patients so they can get moving again as soon as possible. The convergence of sports medicine and exercise is a rapidly advancing specialty that integrates therapeutic and preventive use of exercise, fitness development for athletic performance, sports-injury prevention and treatment, and sports nutrition.

Arthroplasty is a surgery performed to relieve from pain and restore the range of motion by restoring or reconstructing a dysfunctional joint. There are two different types of arthroplastic surgery joint resection and interpositional reconstruction. Joint resection involves removing a portion of the bone from a stiffened joint, increasing the space between the bone and the socket to improve the range of motion. Interpositional reconstruction is surgery to reshape the joint and add a prosthetic disk between the two bones forming the joint.
 

Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) are that injuries and disorders which affect the human body’s movement or musculoskeletal system (i.e. muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, discs, blood vessels, etc.).   The most commonly occurring and disabling musculoskeletal conditions are osteoarthritis, back and neck pain, fractures associated with bone fragility, injuries and systemic inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis.  

Arthritis is not a single disease; it is an informal way to refer joint pain or joint disease. There are more than 100 different types of arthritis and related conditions. Cartilage is a firm but flexible connective tissue in your joints. It protects the joints by absorbing the pressure and shock created when you move and put stress on them. A reduced amount of this cartilage tissue cause some forms of arthritis.
 

Orthopedic trauma is a very broad term describing all kinds of injuries affecting the bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments in any part of the body that are caused by trauma includes:

• Fall
• Twisting the ankle
• Sporting accidents
• Other types of accident
• Severe coughing
• Blows to specific parts of the body 

Physical medicine and rehabilitation is a medical specialty that helps people to regain body functions they lost due to medical conditions or injury. This term is often used to describe the whole medical team, not just the doctors.

Osteoporosis means “porous bone.” It is a bone disease that occurs when the body loses too much bone, makes too little bone, or both. As a result of which bones become weak and may break from a fall or, in serious cases, from sneezing or minor bumps.

A pediatric orthopedist is the trained and most experienced doctor to properly evaluate and treat musculoskeletal (bone, joint, or muscle) problems in a child who is still growing. This includes new-born babies through teenagers.
 

Hip and knee replacement surgeries are highly effective and becoming more common throughout the world. In which doctors remove the femur and shapes of hip socket, then replaces them with a hip implant cup, ball and stem.

Bone repair, whether it happens following a fracture or a bone graft, involves a well-organized set of events that lead to reconstitution of the biological and mechanical integrity of bone. The regeneration process is initiated by an inflammatory response, which plays an important role in stimulating repair.
