Types of common orthopedic diseases

I believe everyone has a certain understanding of orthopedic diseases, right? There are many orthopedic diseases in life. Of course there is a difference between common and uncommon. So what are the common orthopedic diseases? Why are there different types? Let’s discuss this together.

Orthopedic diseases are one of the most common diseases in hospitals. In recent years, orthopedic diseases have undergone significant changes: orthopedic diseases such as bone and joint tuberculosis, osteomyelitis, and polio have shown a downward trend, but traumatic orthopedic diseases caused by traffic accidents have increased significantly. So, what are the common orthopedic diseases in daily life?

Fractures: clavicle fracture, acromioclavicular dislocation, shoulder dislocation, humeral surgical neck fracture, humeral shaft fracture, humeral supracondylar fracture, elbow dislocation, radial head subluxation, double forearm fracture, distal radius fracture; hip dislocation, femoral neck fracture, intertrochanteric fracture, femoral shaft fracture, patellar dislocation, patellar fracture, knee ligament injury, knee meniscus injury, tibial plateau fracture, tibia and fibula shaft fracture, ankle fracture, ankle sprain, foot fracture; spine and pelvic fractures.

Pyogenic infections of bones and joints: purulent osteomyelitis (acute, chronic, localized, sclerosing, post-traumatic), purulent arthritis.

Bone and joint tuberculosis: spinal tuberculosis, hip tuberculosis, knee tuberculosis.

Non-suppurative arthritis: osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, Kaschin-Beck disease, pine caterpillar arthritis.

Osteophyte: Osteophyte is a disease caused by the degeneration and denaturation of soft tissues such as cartilage, intervertebral discs, ligaments, etc. that constitute the joints, the formation of bone spurs on the edges of joints, hypertrophy of synovium, etc., which leads to bone destruction, secondary bone hyperplasia, and joint deformation. When subjected to abnormal loads, it causes symptoms such as joint pain and limited movement. There are two types: primary and secondary.

Rheumatism: Rheumatoid arthritis Rheumatoid arthritis, also known as rheumatoid, is an autoimmune inflammatory disease with chronic, symmetrical, polysynovial arthritis and extra-articular lesions as its main clinical manifestations. The disease often occurs in small joints such as hands, wrists, and feet, with repeated attacks and symmetrical distribution.

Ankylosing spondylitis: Ankylosing spondylitis is a systemic immune, chronic, progressive inflammatory disease. Its early symptoms are pain in the sacroiliac joints, low back, hips or large joints, accompanied by stiffness in the lower back and back. Therefore, many people believe that ankylosing spondylitis is an orthopedic disease.

Fractures, bone tumors, rheumatism, cervical spondylosis, ankylosing spondylitis, etc. are all common orthopedic diseases. The skeleton is like a frame that protects the important organs of the human body at all times. In daily life, we try our best to avoid external forces that "disturb" and damage our bones. Once we encounter misfortune, we must take active medical measures to ensure the safety of our bones and ensure we can live a normal life.

Through the introduction of the above article, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of common orthopedic diseases? Orthopedic diseases are really divided into many types, and orthopedic diseases may occur in almost every part of the body. This requires us to pay more attention in our lives, strengthen exercise, and increase our body's resistance.
