After an injury
When the mechanism, pain, swelling or restriction require specialist assessment.
ORTHOPAEDICS @ SALVEO
Orthopaedic care, from assessment to treatment.
History, examination and imaging are considered together to decide whether the appropriate next step is rehabilitation, monitoring, further investigation or discussion of a procedure.

WHEN ORTHOPAEDICS ADDS VALUE
Not every pain needs the same pathway.
Specialist consultation is useful when there is a clear clinical question and a documented decision is needed.
When progress is unclear
When symptoms continue or progress does not match the plan already followed.
When imaging needs clinical context
MRI, radiographs or other tests are interpreted alongside symptoms and examination.
Before or after surgery
When indications, restrictions, phases and rehabilitation coordination need clarification.
BY AREA
Start with the joint or area that concerns you.
Each page explains common presentation patterns, examination and how orthopaedics can connect with rehabilitation.
ORTHOPAEDIC TREATMENTS
A procedure is selected after assessment, not from the diagnosis name alone.
The indication, potential benefits, limitations, alternatives and aftercare are discussed individually with the orthopaedic specialist.

Hyaluronic acid

Intra-articular injection aims to relieve pain and improve movement, mainly in knee osteoarthritis.
Some patients report gradual improvement, but benefits vary and studies do not show a consistent effect for everyone. Treatment does not rebuild worn cartilage or stop osteoarthritis. Suitability is assessed individually by the orthopaedic specialist.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)

In selected cases, particularly mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis and certain chronic tendon conditions, it may help reduce pain and improve function. Results depend on the diagnosis, preparation method and individual patient characteristics. Improvement may take several weeks; treatment does not guarantee tissue regeneration or complete recovery.

Peptide treatments

Products containing them may differ in composition and mechanisms of action, so they are assessed individually according to the diagnosis and treatment goal.
Potential benefits for pain and function, as well as risks, are discussed according to the specific ingredient and supporting evidence. The same anti-inflammatory or regenerative effect cannot be attributed to all peptides. The orthopaedic specialist explains the reasons for selection, expectations and alternatives before treatment.
Injections are not suitable for every patient or every joint. The decision follows consultation, informed discussion and documented consent.

CONSULTATION PROCESS
Five steps from the clinical question to the plan.
By the end of the visit, the patient should understand the findings, options and recommended next step.
- 01
Clinical history
Mechanism, duration, symptoms, previous care and goals establish the context.
- 02
Examination
Movement, stability, strength, function and relevant clinical signs are assessed.
- 03
Imaging in context
MRI or radiographs are connected with symptoms and examination rather than read in isolation.
- 04
Decision
The next step may involve rehabilitation, monitoring, further investigation, a procedure or another opinion.
- 05
Follow-up
Progress and response are reviewed, with coordination continuing when required.
DIAGNOSTIC EXAMINATIONS
The decision uses the complete clinical picture.
Structural findings become meaningful when connected with symptoms, examination and function.
- History and symptom pattern
- Clinical examination
- Relevant imaging
- Function and limitations
- Progress at follow-up
Do not arrange new MRI or radiographs automatically before consultation. Bring the images and reports you already have.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Before assessment.
General guidance for orthopaedic consultation; individual decisions follow examination.
What should I bring to the consultation?
Bring existing images and reports, relevant medication or treatment information, and a brief timeline of symptoms.
Do I need an MRI before the visit?
Not necessarily. The need for imaging depends on the history, examination and clinical question.
Can consultation be coordinated with physiotherapy?
Yes. When needed, findings and recommendations connect with the rehabilitation plan.
When is follow-up arranged?
Timing depends on the working diagnosis, chosen plan and information that needs reassessment.
