Orthopedic injuries are injuries to the body’s muscle and skeletal system.  These injuries include a dislocated joint, damaged joint socket, sprained ligament, torn muscle and broken bones.

In addition, orthopedic injuries can involve infections. Orthopedic infections are most common when a bone fracture punctures the skin, exposing the wound to external elements and bacteria.

Accidents that commonly cause orthopedic injuries include automobile accidents, slip / trip & fall, and workplace injuries. However, because of the vulnerability of the musculoskeletal system, a wide variety of accidents can result in orthopedic damage.

When a third party’s negligence or lack of caution is responsible for the accident, a claim for money damages may be filed in court.

Moreover, orthopedic injuries can result in temporary or permanent disability.

The medical treatment necessary to treat orthopedic injuries can be both expensive and painful. Orthopedic surgery can include implanting a metal rod or plate in the bone, as well as bone grafts and joint replacement.
