Orthopaedics is an area of medicine that helps treat conditions affecting your bones, joints and their surrounding soft tissue (your muscles, ligaments, tendons and nerves).
You may be experiencing problems from a sports injury or through general wear and tear. This may present you with pain, stiffness or swelling and can have an impact on both your physical and mental wellbeing.
At Longfield Polyclinic we have a number of expert orthopaedic consultants that can work with you to assess your condition and to understand the best route to alleviating your symptoms. This may mean a referral to one of our physiotherapists, our rheumatologist or for a joint injection.
