Atención ortopédica
Los médicos ortopédicos, llamados ortopedistas, brindan atención para los huesos y las articulaciones. Esto incluye dolor de rodilla, reemplazo total de la articulación, problemas que afectan la columna vertebral, entre otros. Es posible que deba visitar a un ortopedista si tiene artritis u osteoporosis, o si recientemente ha sufrido un esguince, una torcedura o una fractura de hueso.
