- Family physician's office
- Symptomatology
- Locomotor system examination
- Laboratory investigations
An accurate clinical diagnosis
of most common locomotor disorders can easily
be undertaken in a family physician's office.
Making an accurate diagnosis necessitates paying
careful attention to key elements of the patient's
symptomatology and having confidence and experience
in completing a thorough examination of the locomotor
system.
Over-reliance on laboratory investigations
is often unhelpful and can be misleading.
