With technology, any joint problem is treatable but it needs to be detected at the right time. We take the saying ‘Ignorance is bliss’ too seriously, especially when it comes to our joints. Never ignore joint problems as it can become torture. Warning signs like pain around the joint areas, a palpable swelling or the requirement to take an analgesic medicine, especially in children or adolescents do warrant check-ups by your orthopaedic surgeon. Radiographs or X-rays of the local area of concern form the first line of investigation. Any suspicion of a neoplastic lesion should form a timely referral to a sarcoma or cancer centre or to an orthopaediconco surgeon who is trained in dealing with such lesions and where subsequent treatment will be carried out. This practice by the local physician or the local orthopaedic surgeon should be in the best interest of the child and his/her family and forms a vital part in the ultimate successful management of such patients.
