Orthopedic Pathology Details
Orthopedic Pathology. Mobile Phone Number 01797522136, 01987073965. Orthopedic Pathology is a branch of pathology that discusses the causes and diagnosis of diseases in the musculoskeletal system. Diseases of Musculoskeletal Systems are called Orthopedic Diseases. These Diseases are Back Pain, Muscle cramps, Osteoporosis, Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Ankylosing Spondylitis, Muscle atrophy, Bursitis, Knee pain, Frozen shoulder, Shoulder arthritis, Dislocated shoulder,
Fibromyalgia, Ankle sprains, Bone Fracture, Carpal tunnel syndrome, Acute injuries, Musculoskeletal cancer, Hip labral tear, Tennis elbow, Rotator cuff tear, Anterior cruciate ligament injury, Scoliosis, Rickets, etc. There are some courses for studying orthopedic diseases at HRTD Medical Institute. These Courses are DMA, DMS, DPM, DMDS, DMSc, and PDT Orthopedics. PDT Orthopedic is the best course for studying Orthopedic Diseases.
Causes and Diagnosis of Muscle Cramps
Causes of Osteoporosis in Orthopedic Pathology
In Orthopedic Pathology, Osteoporosis is a common orthopedic disease. Osteoporosis occurs when too much bone mass is lost and changes occur in the structure of bone tissue.
Bone is a living tissue that is constantly being broken down and replaced. Osteoporosis occurs when the creation of new bone doesn’t keep up with the loss of old bone.
Certain risk factors may lead to the development of osteoporosis.
Sex. Women have a greater risk for osteoporosis than men.
Age. As you age, bone loss happens more quickly, and new bone growth is slower.
Body size. Slender, thin-boned women and men are at greater risk of developing osteoporosis.
Skin Condition. White skin is at the highest risk.
Family history. The risk for osteoporosis and fractures may increase if one of your parents has a history of osteoporosis.
Changes to hormones. Low levels of certain hormones can increase osteoporosis. For example:
Low levels of estrogen in women ( during menopause).
Low levels of testosterone in men.
Diet. A diet low in calcium and vitamin D can increase your risk for osteoporosis and fractures.
Excessive dieting or poor protein intake may increase the risk for bone loss and osteoporosis.
Other medical conditions. Endocrine and hormonal diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, certain types of cancer, HIV/AIDS, and anorexia nervosa.
Medications. Long-term use of certain medications:
Glucocorticoids and adrenocorticotropic hormone.
Antiepileptic medicines.
Cancer medications.
Proton pump inhibitors.
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.
Thiazolidinediones, which treat type II diabetes.
Lifestyle.Low levels of physical activity.
Chronic heavy drinking of alcohol is a significant risk factor for osteoporosis.
Diagnosis of Osteoporosis
In Orthopedic Pathology, Your bone density can be measured by a machine that uses low levels of X-rays to determine the proportion of minerals in your bones. During this painless test, you lie on a padded table as a scanner passes over your body. In most cases, only certain bones are checked — usually in the hip and spine.
Causes and Diagnosis of Osteoarthritis
Causes of Osteoarthritis in Orthopedic Pathology
In Orthopedic Pathology, Osteoarthritis is a common orthopedic disease. Osteoarthritis are degenerative disease of the joint characterized by degeneration of articular cartilage with proliferation of new bone and remodelling of joint contour. Commonly involves bearing joints- knee, ankle.
