Visiting The Orthopedic Doctor

Arthritis is the main reason why people see the physician, says Dr. Carlos Alvarado, Orthopedic Surgeon with Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute. Arthritis causes pain and may occur at different times, even at night. The specialist considers that when the patient feels that he cannot longer do his daily activities, because of the pain in his joints, it is time to visit the doctor.
