Sports medicine
Once perceived as
discipline concerned only with repairing athletes' traumatic injuries,
sports medicine is now recognized as a medical science that is
expanding the understanding
of the body's integrated response to all forms of physical activity.
Our Surgeons can help
you prevent and recover from injuries, whether you are a world class
athlete or just slightly
active.
Acute sports injuries include:
Fractures
Dislocations
Sprains
Strains
ACL reconstruction and rehabilitation
Orthopaedic Trauma
Orthopaedic trauma conditions include fractures and dislocations as
well as severe
soft tissue injuries caused by traumatic events. Common orthopaedic
traumatic
injuries include femoral and tibial shaft fractures, acetabular and
pelvic fractures,
spine and spinal cord injuries, hand and upper extremity injuries,
foot and ankle
injuries, among many others.

Physical therapy
Physical therapy (physiotherapy) involves the assessment and
treatment of disorders
of the musculo-skeletal and nervous systems causing impaired physical
function.
The goal of the physical therapist is to enhance the
individual's capacity for functional
movement, thereby maximizing
independence.

X-ray
X-rays allow your physician to evaluate problems
of the bone and joints.
Very often during
the course of your treatment or evaluation for an
orthopaedic condition your physician may
require
X-rays to evaluate
your progress or to
determine the cause of a problem. At our clinic diagnostic X-ray
facilities are available at each office location for prompt evaluation
and patient convenience.
These are continually staffed whenever any doctor is consulting, which
covers most of the
week.
Patients may be referred for x-rays from outside. X-rays can therefore
be arranged prior to consultations.
Appointments for X-ray are not necessary.
Call 1-205-822-9595 for an appointment to meet our team of
orthopaedic specialists
and the staff at Orthopaedic Sports Medicine Clinic of Alabama, PC.
