What are the recommendations for patients to visit orthopedics?

  1.Before coming to the hospital, you can briefly “write” your condition; you can briefly “write” your most concerned issues; 2.Dress appropriately: skirt, too tight clothing is not conducive to the exposure of the examination site; 3.Orthopedic patients have a higher chance of receiving imaging examinations (X-ray, CT, MRI); 4.Accessories appropriate: hairpieces, necklaces, earrings, metal ornaments of clothing, cell phones, keys, etc. will leave images on X-rays and other imaging examinations, and may form artifacts; 5.Bring all medical records (especially films): including film reports, it is not recommended to bring only film reports. When taking X-rays and other imaging examinations, images will be left on the film, interfering with the development of normal structures and possibly forming artifacts; 5. Bring all medical records (especially films, it is not recommended to bring only film reports): including your previous medical records and related images and other information (relevant medical information from different countries, different regions, different hospitals, different times and different doctors have certain reference value); 6. 6. inform the doctor of your diseases other than orthopedics; especially the history of trauma, tumor, surgery, etc.; 7. inform the doctor of the medications you are currently taking; 8. inform the doctor of the special arrangements in your life and work schedule: planned pregnancy, pregnancy, breastfeeding, business trips, etc.; some special periods are not suitable for X-ray examinations; some diseases require elective surgery; 9. preserve orthopedic films: doctors usually have to hang up the films to look at them on the viewing lamp. The doctor usually has to hang up the film and look at it on the viewing light. The films should be kept as flat as possible (it is not recommended to roll the films for carrying convenience), clean, dry, closed light, and placed in a cool place (some films are put in the “trunk” of the car, resulting in blurred images, which cannot be read, and the films are useless); 10. The doctor’s advice about “lifestyle modification” (what to pay attention to in your life) is very important and needs to be followed, which will facilitate the recovery of the disease and will further maintain your health.
