When to request orthopaedic assessment
A clinician can assess symptoms, injury history and movement before recommending tests, imaging, medication, support or referral. Treatment depends on the individual assessment.
For severe injury, visible deformity, uncontrolled bleeding, loss of consciousness or another urgent concern, seek emergency help immediately rather than waiting for an online appointment.
