Putra Medical Centre’s Orthopaedic Clinic assesses conditions affecting bones, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments. Care is planned around the cause of symptoms, their effect on movement and the patient’s individual goals.
When to arrange an assessment
An orthopaedic consultation may help with persistent joint or back pain, reduced movement, a sports or work-related injury, swelling, weakness or recovery after a fracture or procedure.
For a major injury, obvious deformity, loss of sensation, inability to bear weight or severe rapidly worsening pain, seek urgent medical assessment.
What to expect
The doctor will discuss your symptoms and examine movement, strength and the affected area. X-rays, other imaging or laboratory tests may be requested when needed. Treatment may include activity advice, medication, rehabilitation, monitoring or surgical review.
Supporting recovery
Follow the activity, exercise and follow-up guidance provided by your healthcare team. Recovery time varies according to the condition, general health and treatment plan.
What to bring
Bring identification, your referral if provided, previous imaging and reports, and a list of medicines and allergies. Wear clothing that allows the affected area to be examined comfortably.
