Orthopaedic trauma care focuses on treating injuries caused by accidents, falls, or high-impact events. This includes damage to bones, joints, muscles, and ligaments that require prompt evaluation and expert management to restore function and mobility.
Shoulder
Anatomy
The shoulder is the most flexible joint in the body that enables a wide range of movements including forward flexion, abduction, adduction, external rotation, internal rotation, and 360-degree circumduction. Thus, the shoulder joint is considered the most insecure joint of the body, but the support of ligaments, muscles, and tendons function to provide the required stability. Know More
