Orthopedics made personal
Orthopedics services offered at Monroe County Hospital & Clinics
What is Orthopedics?
Orthopedics focuses on the care of the skeletal system, musculoskeletal issues, and interconnecting parts. Our Orthopedic Specialists treat a wide variety of conditions, offer nonsurgical treatments, and surgical treatments.
When to see an orthopedic specialist?
- Pain or swelling in a bone, joint, or muscle that’s persistent, recurring, or doesn’t respond to at-home care.
- A significant decrease in mobility or range of motion of a joint, such as your knee, elbow, or shoulder.
- Trouble performing your daily activities.
- Nerve-related symptoms, such as numbness and tingling or a “pins and needles” sensation in your arms or legs.
- An injury to a bone or joint that needs the attention of a specialist.
