Orthopedic surgery is one of the most interesting fields of medical science. It is focused on musculoskeletal system and its interconnecting parts like bones, skull, joints, nerves, ligaments, tissues etc. These parts can be treated, repaired and replaced by orthopedicians through the surgeries.

The musculoskeletal system helps our body to hold its structure and also to move; keeping this system well maintained is crucial for a lot of reasons like prevention of injuries, mobility, improved alignment, pain management etc. So, orthopedicians are very important to keep our muscles and joints intact in case of any injuries.

There are two categories of orthopedic surgeons 1. Surgical and 2. Non- Surgical, the latter ones are called physiatrists and the former one are called surgeons. The physiatrists only offer patient counselling and non- surgical approach for injury or pain management for various conditions like pain in hips, knees, shoulders etc.
On the other hand orthopedic surgeons give surgical treatment for the conditions affecting the musculoskeletal system.
