Orthopedic traumatic injury is typically caused by some external force, such as a severe fall, a serious accident, or even a violent attack. These injuries occur in the musculoskeletal system, including bones, cartilage, joints, ligaments, muscles, and tendons of the body. Because your musculoskeletal system affects your skeletal support and stability as well as all movement and function, it is critical to have an expert in orthopedic trauma evaluate these injuries. An orthopedic trauma specialist can better assess immediate injuries and how those injuries may affect long-term bone and joint health.

Orthopedic Expertise For Every Level of Injury
The specialists at Greater Orlando Orthopedic Group have the depth of expertise for every level of injury, including trauma and fracture or more general orthopedic injury care. Beyond the immediate pain and concerns, trauma injuries can lead to post-traumatic arthritis – a common form of osteoarthritis that can result from any traumatic injury. If orthopedic traumatic injuries are not treated and healed correctly, they can come back in later years to cause additional problems.
