Orthopedics Q & A
Orthopedic surgery, also known as orthopedics, is a branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of musculoskeletal problems. Your musculoskeletal system features a complex network of hard and soft tissues, including bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
Originally, orthopedics cared for children with spine and limb deformities. During the last century, it has expanded to treat patients of all ages, from young adults suffering from sports-related injuries to senior citizens living with arthritis and osteoporosis.
The expert surgeons at Associated Surgical Center offer several types of orthopedic surgery, including:
Arthroscopic surgery
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive type of orthopedic surgery used to diagnose, treat, and prevent problems affecting your joints. During arthroscopy, your surgeon uses an arthroscope –– a skinny, flexible tube with a high-definition camera on the end –– to observe a damaged or diseased joint. You might benefit from arthroscopy if you regularly experience knee pain, hip pain, wrist pain, or elbow pain.
Joint replacement surgery
Joint replacement surgery is a type of orthopedic surgery that replaces a diseased or damaged joint with a metal or ceramic prosthetic. This type of orthopedic surgery is particularly beneficial for men and women living with a rheumatic illness such as osteoarthritis.
Repair of soft tissue injuries
If you rupture a tendon or tear a ligament, you might benefit from orthopedic surgery to repair soft tissue injuries. During this type of operation, your Associated Surgical Center provider carefully stitches together torn or damaged soft tissues, encouraging your body to heal.
No two orthopedics treatment plans are exactly alike. The team at Associated Surgical Center develops a care plan based on your medical history, individual symptoms, and goals for treatment. After gathering the necessary information, your surgeon makes a recommendation that aligns with your budget and needs.

Surgery may be considered when conservative treatments such as physical therapy, medications, or injections do not provide relief. Conditions like severe arthritis, significant fractures, or joint instability may require surgical intervention to restore function and alleviate pain.
We offer several joint replacement options, including total and partial knee replacements, total hip replacements, and shoulder replacements. Our surgeons utilize advanced techniques to minimize recovery time and improve surgical outcomes.
Preventing orthopedic injuries involves maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, proper nutrition, and ergonomic practices. Stretching before physical activities, using appropriate equipment, and avoiding overexertion can also help reduce the risk of injuries.
