Trauma and Injury Care in Matamoros
Assessment of injuries following falls, accidents, sport and other causes. Dr. Eduardo Reyes Jácome can review your injury and discuss appropriate treatment and follow-up.
After an injury, timely assessment matters
Pain severity alone cannot identify the injured structure. Examination and, when appropriate, imaging help guide decisions.
Fractures
A fracture may need immobilisation or surgery depending on its location, displacement and stability. Do not try to straighten a broken bone yourself.
Dislocations and sprains
A dislocated joint and a ligament injury need different assessments. Deformity or inability to move a joint warrants prompt medical attention.

Twisting, impacts and overload can affect menisci, tendons and ligaments. Return to sport should reflect your recovery.

Follow-up checks recovery and helps adjust weight-bearing, movement and rehabilitation instructions.
Treating the injury
Your team should explain immobilisation, reduction, fixation or other indicated options and their risks.
Rehabilitation and follow-up
Pain, movement and healing are assessed before increasing activity. Another person's recovery timeline may not apply to you.
When to seek emergency care
An open fracture, significant deformity, a cold limb or loss of sensation needs urgent assessment. Do not wait for a WhatsApp reply.
Informed decisions and individual care
Reviewing your history, examining the area of concern and understanding your goals helps guide care options. Ask why a study or treatment is recommended, its risks and the available alternatives.

Before your appointment
Practical information to prepare for an assessment and speak with the team.
How do I request an assessment?
Call the clinic or start a WhatsApp request from this website. The team will check availability and confirm your time; submitting a request does not confirm an appointment.
What should I bring to my appointment?
Bring previous studies and reports, a list of medications, allergies and important medical history. Note when your concern began and which activities improve or worsen it. The team can advise whether anything else is needed.
Can patients from the United States request a visit?
Patients from the United States or other Mexican cities can request an assessment. Before travelling, confirm the date, time, location and any documents or studies to bring.
Can the symptom guide diagnose my condition?
No. It explains educational possibilities using the area and symptoms you confirm. It cannot examine you or confirm or rule out disease. An individual clinical assessment is needed to establish the cause.
When should I go directly to emergency care?
A major injury, significant deformity, an exposed bone, a cold limb or loss of sensation needs urgent assessment. For an emergency, seek emergency care or call 911; do not wait for a WhatsApp reply.
