assess the condition of the skin and soft tissues (skin color, integrity disorders, the presence of abscesses, neoplasms, tissue swelling);
palpate (probe), percussion (tap) problem areas;
assess the mobility of the limbs and spine, posture features, and foot placement.

Based on the results of the examination, the doctor can:

perform invasive diagnostic procedures (puncture, biopsy) with prior anesthesia;
prescribe additional instrumental and laboratory tests;
refer the patient to a specialist in the therapeutic field (if there is no need for surgical intervention);
