How Are Sports Injuries in New Jersey Diagnosed?
When you get to any of our Genesis Orthopaedic facilities, you will be met by a caring and skilled staff so you can start your path to recovery in the best hands. You will discuss with your provider your symptoms and what led up to your injury. After that, they will perform a physical exam to identify the extent of your pain and any other warning signs such as swelling, redness, unusual bumps, etc.
In case it’s needed, your specialist will use our in-house digital X-ray technology to properly recognize further displacement or internal issues that can’t be diagnosed through a normal examination. For most of our patients, there’s no need to have a second appointment or traveling to a different location in order to get a proper diagnosis.
