Exacerbation means something that makes something else worse. To give you more information I would need more information in your question. Orthopaedic is an adjective, so is used to describe another term but you didn't mention what that other term was.
In orthopedics, exacerbation refers to a worsening or increased severity of symptoms related to a musculoskeletal condition or injury. It may involve increased pain, swelling, limited range of motion, or functional impairment. Treatment during an exacerbation may focus on managing symptoms, reducing inflammation, and promoting healing.
Synonyms for the noun exacerbation include worsening, aggravation, or heightening.When used to mean an emotional state, synonyms include irritation or annoyance.
Acute in this context means short-term -- it hasn't been going on long. Exacerbation means signs and symptoms have gotten worse. "Acute exacerbation" of a disease means the disease has been there right along, but lately it's acting up. For example, in this season in our area (spring), I see many patients with acute exacerbation of allergies.
