1 month post ACL surgery
my brother is 28 years old, and he just had ACL surgery a month ago. I'm curious about what activities he can safely resume at this point. Can you provide some guidance on what's generally acceptable 1 month post ACL surgery for someone his age?

Answered on 23rd May '24
Now, your brother can begin with light exercises such as walking and stationary cycling. He should refrain from high-impact activities such as running, jumping or twisting until he finishes his rehabilitation program. It would be wise to ask his orthopedic surgeon or a physical therapist for more information on the recovery process and advice about activities that he can engage in without risk.

Bone infection and water retention in both legs along with swelling
Male | 14
In bone infections, there is usually swelling and sensitivity in the region where it occurs. Retaining water in both legs and feet is an alert sign of a health condition that needs medical attention. It is highly recommended to consult a specialist like a rheumatologist or an orthopedist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Hi, I'm a 22 year old male with back pain, I've been to doctors loads of times for the past 7-8 months but all they been telling me is to take pain killers and exercise, ive had a MRI scan which showed L5-S1 left subarticular disc protrusion and L4-5 facet joint arthropathies is that right for them to keep telling me to exercise?
Male | 22
The MRI scan reveals a disc disorder, along with an ache from the facet joint. Workouts can make your muscles healthier and render them more flexible, which is very helpful when managing the pain. You really must stick to the exercise plan of the physiotherapist without fail to reduce the damage caused. Painkillers are one way of pain relief, but the long-term solution comes from exercise, and maybe a few more such treatments like physical therapy depending on the severity of the problem.

Male | 35
These symptoms could be due to a condition called fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia causes the pain to be distributed all over the body, apart from other symptoms like constipation and difficulty in breathing. It's essential to see an orthopedist to discuss your symptoms and get the right treatment to help manage the pain and discomfort.

After jaw surgery when can i chew?
Female | 46
After jaw surgery, it’s recommended to wait at least 6-8 weeks before resuming chewing solid foods. This allows your jaw to heal properly and minimizes the risk of complications. However, recovery times can vary based on individual factors, so it's crucial to follow your surgeon’s specific instructions. For personalized advice, consult your dentist.

My child spine bend in born.it will cure by belt/
Male | 12
Your child could have congenital scoliosis - a curved spine. This happens due to abnormal growth before birth. Symptoms are uneven shoulders, or hips. In some cases, a brace helps. But surgery may be needed if the curve is severe. Make sure to see a pediatric orthopedic specialist. They'll discuss the best treatment options for your child's spine.

I'm an 18 year old female, has an old unattended back injury from 10 years ago hurts from time to time recently has been feeling some chest pains and difficulty in breathing what could it be?
Female | 18
Judging from the information that you have given, your past back injury and these new symptoms could be linked. Often old injuries can be a cause of problems later. The chest pain and breathing problems may indeed be caused by your spine affecting the nerves and muscles in that part of your body. An orthopedist needs to check everything to make sure you are ok and that you feel better.

i can't move my wrist and arm i think its broken
Female | 15
Falling can cause your arm to break. Bones may crack from an impact, accident, or heavy blow, leading to pain and swelling. Moving the arm becomes challenging. At the hospital, doctors will examine X-rays to identify the fracture. Treatment varies: some breaks can be stabilized with a cast, while more severe breaks may require surgery. Seeking medical care from an orthopedist is crucial to ensure the bone heals properly.

High gread partial tare acl towards femur
Male | 24
You have a partial tear of the ACL, where it remains attached but has been significantly torn near the thigh bone. This can happen due to a knee ligament sprain or strain. Symptoms include pain, swelling, and difficulty moving the knee. Immediate causes are sudden bending or excessive knee movement. Treatment options may involve resting the joint, doing physical therapy, or undergoing surgery to repair the tear. It's crucial to follow an orthopedist's advice for proper recovery.

I rolled my ankle really bad 4 weeks ago almost 5. I still have inflamation and soreness, and pain. my briuises are gone but still hurts. and i have not been to a doctor.
Female | 14
You’ve sprained your ankle, and it may still be causing inflammation, soreness, and pain weeks after the injury. A sprain happens when the ligaments are stretched or torn, leading to pain and swelling. Rest your ankle, ice it, elevate it, and consider using a compression bandage. If it doesn’t improve, it’s best to see an orthopedist for advice.

I came back from gym I stuffed 2 pounds and 1 50 in my sock I left it and the shoes pressed the coins against the skin (I ignored it) when I came back from gym I saw when I took my socks off my feet had circles where the coins were and it was blue is it meaning I will get cancer I’m worried I washed the colour off but there still is some left
Male | 18
Bruises, like the one from coins pressing against your feet, happen when tiny blood vessels break. The skin turns purple or blue from leaking blood underneath. These usually fade away on their own after some time. Just be careful not to put more pressure there. The bruise should go away without issues. However, let an orthopedist know if you see anything concerning.

You should seek immediate medical attention from a professional, orthopedist, or family doctor for an evaluation and diagnosis. Possible causes include muscle strain, injury, structural issues, or medical conditions. Avoid activities that worsen the pain.
