Orthopedists, often known as orthopedic doctors, are experts in preventing, identifying, and treating diseases of the joints, bones, ligaments, tendons, and muscles. They deal with issues like tendon and ankle injuries, arthritis, osteoporosis, bone tumors, back pain, and spinal stenosis, among others. One needs to see or consult an orthopaedic surgeon every six months, depending on their age and the health of their joints. However, if the person is in good health, they should see an orthopedic surgeon once a year to have their bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments examined. Orthopedists analyse, identify, and manage conditions affecting the body's bones, ligaments, joints, and muscles. Doctors that specialise in treating ailments of the foot, ankle, and lower extremities are known as podiatrists. Yet, because knee and hip problems may result from foot or ankle malformations, podiatrists are qualified to treat them. So, one can consult either an orthopedist or a podiatrist depending on the illness's cause.
