Orthopedist in Kutno
Shoulder, knee, or back pain that does not subside despite rest? A sprain that still causes swelling in the joint? Schedule an orthopedic consultation at the Różan Medical Center. We perform a joint ultrasound during the visit, and if indicated, we administer a bolus injection under imaging control.
When it is worth reporting Go to the orthopedic doctor
Musculoskeletal pain is often dismissed for months because „it will pass by itself,” and untreated overload or injury become chronic and require longer treatment. Below are situations where it is worth scheduling an appointment with an orthopedic specialist. If you recognize any of these in yourself, make an appointment.
Pain in the shoulder, knee, hip, elbow, or wrist that does not subside after a few days of rest becomes worse with certain movements or wakes you up at night; it requires evaluation. During the consultation, the doctor examines the joint, checks range of motion and stability, and if necessary, performs an ultrasound – this examination shows tendons, ligaments, and fluid in the joint, structures that are not visible on an X-ray. Early diagnosis determines whether conservative treatment is sufficient or a more extensive procedure will be needed.
An ankle sprain, knee injury, muscle strain, or a fall onto an outstretched arm are situations where it is worth checking whether there has been damage to a ligament or tendon. Persistent swelling, instability of the joint, and pain when loading the affected limb after a few days of the injury are indications for examination – even if an X-ray does not show a fracture.
Tennis and golf player’s wrist, tendon inflammation, runner’s knee, painful shoulder in people working with their hands raised above their head, and wrist pain when working at a computer are typical effects of repetitive workloads. Treatment begins with determining which structure is overloaded and why – because without this, the condition returns after resuming activity.
Difficulty in raising the arm, morning stiffness, limitation of knee flexion, joint locking, or a feeling of jumping are symptoms that do not always cause pain, but clearly limit daily functioning. It is worth assessing them before restricting movement becomes permanent.
Pain that increases with walking and climbing stairs, stiffness after prolonged sitting, joint creaking, and a gradual reduction in range of motion are typical signs of degenerative changes. The course of treatment is determined individually – from conservative therapy and injections, to eligibility for surgical treatment if the changes are advanced.
Pain in the lumbar or cervical spine, radiating to the limbs, numbness and tingling of the fingers require evaluation, especially if they persist for more than a few weeks or are accompanied by a weakening of muscle strength. During the visit, the doctor determines whether further imaging diagnostics is necessary.
Improper posture, knee bending or twisting, flat feet, limping, pain in the limbs after exertion, and the indication for an examination of the hip joints in infants are the most common reasons for visits by younger patients. We perform ultrasound examinations of the hips on-site.
Why it is worth using care services Orthopedic at RCM
The care is provided by a specialist in orthopedic and traumatology of the musculoskeletal system, who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of injuries, strains, and diseases of the joints and spine in adults and children.
USG is the first choice examination for soft tissue injuries – it shows tendons, ligaments, muscles and fluid in the joint, and in addition allows the joint to be evaluated in motion. We perform it in the office during the consultation, so the doctor immediately correlates the image with the results of the clinical examination.
If it is indicated to administer the medication to the joint or the area around the tendon, we perform it during the same visit, under ultrasound imaging control. The imaging control allows us to precisely target the area where the medication is intended to work.
You do not need a referral to book a private consultation – you just need to book an appointment online or by phone. If you are not sure whether to book a consultation or an ultrasound examination, please describe your situation over the phone and we will help you choose.

On what it involves orthopedic care
Orthopedics and traumatology of the musculoskeletal system deals with the diagnosis and treatment of injuries, strains, and diseases of the joints, bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. During the consultation, the doctor collects information about the circumstances of the injury or the onset of the symptoms, examines the joint, assesses the range of motion, muscle strength, and then establishes the diagnosis and a treatment plan.
At the Różan Medical Center, in addition to consultations, we perform joint ultrasound examinations, delivery injections, and joint ultrasound examinations of the hips in children. We provide conservative treatment for injuries and overuse injuries, degenerative changes, and pain syndromes, and, if necessary, refer for further diagnostic imaging or surgical treatment.

Consultation and qualification for the procedure
Consultation and qualification for the procedure
During the consultation, the doctor collects a history: from when the symptoms began, whether they were preceded by an injury, what movements aggravate them, and what your work and physical activity are like. Then he examines the joint – assessing swelling, painful pressure, range of motion, muscle stability and strength, performing clinical tests characteristic of the individual injuries.
On this basis, they determine the diagnosis or recommend tests that will confirm it. You receive a treatment plan: recommendations regarding joint load, further activity, pharmacological treatment, indication for rehabilitation or eligibility for injections if indicated. It is advisable to bring with you the results of previous imaging tests – X-rays, ultrasound or MRI – even those from several years ago.
USG of the joints
USG of the joints
The ultrasound of the joints shows the soft tissues of the movement organ: tendons, ligaments, muscles, the synovial bag, the synovial fluid, and the fluid in the joint cavity. It shows structures that are not visible on an X-ray image, which is why it is the first choice test for injuries and strains of the shoulder, knee, elbow, wrist, and foot.
A major advantage of ultrasound is its dynamic assessment – the doctor views the joint in motion, which allows them to detect structural conflict, instability, or tendon jumping that are invisible in a static examination. The examination requires no preparation, takes about twenty minutes, and is painless. We interpret the image immediately, in relation to the clinical examination, and if an injection is indicated, it can be performed during the same visit.
Delivery injections under ultrasound control
Delivery injections under ultrasound control
The injection involves administering the preparation directly to the joint, ankle, or the area around the tendon. It is used for degenerative changes, inflammatory conditions, and chronic overuse injuries when oral treatment and rehabilitation do not provide sufficient improvement. The type of preparation is chosen by the doctor after evaluating the joint – another is used for inflammatory conditions, and another for degenerative changes.
The procedure is performed under ultrasound imaging control, which allows us to precisely target the target area instead of administering the medication „by feel". It takes about ten minutes, and the sensations usually consist of a prick and a momentary tingling. After the procedure, the joint is allowed to rest for the time specified by the doctor. Part of the treatment is carried out in a series – the number of injections and the intervals between them are determined individually.
USG of the hip joints in children
USG of the hip joints in children
USG of the hip joints is a screening test for infants, whose goal is the early detection of hip dysplasia. At this stage, the abnormality does not cause symptoms and is not visible to the naked eye, and if not recognized, it can lead to permanent gait disorders and premature degenerative changes in adulthood.
The examination is performed in the first weeks of life, at the time indicated by the pediatrician or orthopedist, and if necessary, is repeated for follow-up purposes. It takes a few minutes, is completely painless, and requires no preparation – it is only necessary to feed the child before the visit to keep them calm. Dysplasia detected early is treated with conservative methods, and the results are discussed directly after the examination.
Injuries and overloads
Injuries and overloads
Sprains of the ankle and knee joints, muscle strains, ligament injuries, and tendon overloads are the most common injuries of the musculoskeletal system – both in people who engage in sports and in those who engage in physical labor or repetitive office tasks. A typical mistake is to return to activity too quickly before the damaged structure has had time to heal.
We begin by determining which structure has been damaged and to what extent, using clinical testing and ultrasound. Then we establish a plan: the method of relieving strain, pharmacological treatment, indications for rehabilitation, and an approximate time for returning to activity. In cases of overuse complaints, we also look for the cause – without removing it, the problem returns after returning to training or work.
Degenerative joint disease
Degenerative joint disease
Degenerative disease involves the gradual wear of the cartilage of the joint. It is characterized by pain that increases with activity, stiffness after prolonged rest, spasms, and a reduced range of motion. It most commonly affects the knees, hips, spine, and small joints of the hands, and its course depends on the degree of the changes, body weight, and type of activity.
Treatment is determined individually after an assessment of the condition. It includes conservative procedures – load modification, exercise and rehabilitation, and pharmacological treatment – as well as infusion injections if indicated. In advanced cases, when conservative treatment no longer suffices, the doctor discusses the indications for surgical treatment and directs the patient to a center that performs such procedures.

If an X-ray or MRI is necessary, the doctor issues a referral, indicates the scope of the examination, and discusses the results during a follow-up visit, planning further treatment.
In many cases, yes – if there are no contraindications after the examination and ultrasound and we have the appropriate preparation after diagnosis. However, it sometimes happens that the doctor first recommends another course of action or sets a deadline after completing the diagnostic tests. He or she makes the decision after evaluating the condition.
Yes. We examine children for, among other things, posture defects, knee flexion, flat feet, injuries, and as part of a screening test for hip joints in infants. We select the scope of the examination based on the child's age.
