TRAUMATOLOGISTS IN MADRID

Traumatology specialists focus on the diagnosis, treatment, and comprehensive management of any issues you may have in the musculoskeletal system. However, sometimes we experience pain in bones, muscles, or joints, but we are unsure whether it’s a pain that we should manage with rest, local cold therapy, and painkillers, and it will pass, or if it’s something more serious and we should consult a specialist. Here are some situations where it would be advisable to consult a traumatologist:

• Acute injuries: If you suffer a sudden injury, such as a fracture, sprain, dislocation, or any traumatic injury to muscles.
• Persistent pain: If you experience persistent pain that does not improve with rest, local cold therapy, compression, elevation, or anti-inflammatories.
• Limited range of motion: If you have difficulty moving a joint or limb that affects your ability to perform daily activities.
• Chronic problems: Such as arthritis, osteoporosis, or other pathologies. 
• Postoperative follow-up: If you have undergone orthopedic or trauma surgery, it is important to follow up to ensure optimal recovery.
