Common Types of Orthopedic Injuries in India

Some of the most common orthopedic conditions requiring bracing, casting or splinting in India include:

- Sprains and Strains: Sprains or tears of ligaments and strains or tears of muscles are common sports and exercise injuries. Ankle sprains are the most frequent, followed by knee, wrist and shoulder injuries.

- Post-surgical Recovery: A wide variety of orthopedic surgeries like knee replacement, hip replacement, repair of ligaments or tendons, etc. require braces, casts or splints during the post-op immobilization and rehabilitation phase.

- Arthritis and Joint Pain: Patients with osteoarthritis of weight-bearing joints like knees and hips frequently use bracing and unloading splints to reduce pain and discomfort.
