Orthopaedic Surgery
Answered on 23rd May '24
You may have hurt your elbow quite seriously. When you slam it hard, you can make your elbow and arm to swell and turn purple. It happens when the tiny blood vessels, beneath our skin, smash. For reducing the swelling and pain, you can apply ice. If no significant improvement is noted, you should get the orthopedist involved and thoroughly examined.

I have a wound on my knee. Two days ago i fall in the road
Female | 22
I think you got a scratch on your knee when you fell. It's okay to have pain, redness, and swelling around your wound. This is because the fall has injured your skin. The solution is to gently clean the wound using soap and water, apply an antibiotic ointment, and cover it with an adhesive bandage. Always change the dressing daily until it heals. Opening up is necessary if the pain worsens or you notice any infections with symptoms like pus, light redness, or warmth.

I broke my big toe. It was pretty bad and painful and I went to the ER. They do X-ray and told me that by big toe is fractured. It was late and they didn't give me any other information nor my X-ray. They said that I have to buddy tape it for now but I cat step on it or put any shoes. Do you think I need a walking boot or some kind of immobilization to my foot?
Female | 28
I would suggest that you should consult an orthopedist for further investigation of the health status. The X-rays reports as well the correct diagnosis of fractures are necessary for severe injury assessment. Based on the level of severity, he or she may recommend immobilization using a walking boot or cast.

When your side hurts badly, reaching up to your back with stabbing, pinching pain, several issues may cause it. A strained muscle, kidney stones, or pancreas problems could be reasons. To identify the cause, you should visit an orthopedist. They'll examine you and recommend treatment.

Sir have pain in left knee It was showing as acl sprain and Hyper Lesion on pcl then it mention as gamglion
Female | Ranganayagi
Your symptoms – pain, an ACL sprain – suggest one thing: there’s been some injury there. Hyperextension of the PCL or even just having a ganglion cyst could also cause trouble with movement and make things uncomfortable in general. But don’t worry – rest up that joint, apply some ice on it, and listen to whatever the doctor says needs doing.

Why do I have such bad knee pain? Everytime I hit my knee or even just rest something on my knee I get a shoot of pain in my knee that won't go away for at least a minute
Female | 20
The condition you describe might be patellar tendinitis. It happens when the tendon connecting your kneecap and shinbone gets inflamed. Overuse like repeatedly hitting your knee can cause this. Resting your knee, icing it, and doing gentle knee-strengthening exercises can help. However, if pain persists, see an orthopedist for evaluation.

Does Knee replacement affect your nerves?
Nerve damage may also occur as a result of knee replacement surgery because the peroneal nerve resides close to the tibia bone. In fact, nerve damage is one reason why some patients with knee replacement complain of persistent lateral knee pain and loss of function.
Consult orthopedists, who will explain you in detail about the complications of knee replacement surgery. Hope our answer helps you.

My legs give out. Sometimes I can't even get up when they get out.
Male | 14
Your legs may feel weak. There are many possible reasons for this, including lack of exercise, poor diet and nutrition, or low levels of certain vitamins. Try eating well-balanced meals each day and getting regular physical activity. Additionally, don’t forget to drink plenty of water. If these suggestions do not help, then it would be wise to consult with an orthopedist so that potential underlying causes can be eliminated.

Hip pain during masturbation or after it can have a variety of root causes, which may include hip joint problems, muscle strain or inflammation, among others. Dicloran 100 mg tablet is a pain-killer and should be taken under a doctor's supervision. You should seek an accurate diagnosis and therapy plan from professional doctor to make your symptoms better.

I am 36 years old and i had got injured two years ago and bone of my foot was cracked and doctors bind it with plate and it was recovered but now a major infection arose in foot that cause redness in my foot and it is spreading toward leg and whole body is swelled and i am feeling pain in my chest
Male | 36
The redness, swelling, and pain spreading from your foot to your leg and chest could mean the infection is getting worse. It may be the case that bacteria attack cells resulting in a serious health condition called sepsis, characterized by the infection invading the body. This requires immediate attention. The treatment of sepsis consists of antibiotics and other medications to maintain the infection under control. To avoid any complications it is necessary to act quickly.

Knee pain while climbing stairs other than there is no pain in knee I don't use any medications also don't have my past injury....I felt pain for past 4 days while climbing stairs only ..... My weight 75 kg height 160 cm
Female | 33
This may occur when there is a sudden increase in physical activity which puts stress on these joints. Rest the knee, put some ice on it, and avoid anything that makes the pain worse for a few days. If the pain continues after this time then I would advise speaking with an orthopedist.

Whenever i fastened belt and sit for office work, my eyes and face blush up & looks like such any gas is moved to my head. Hence my eyes, head feel pain & my throat dried up that i'm unable to speak. Please advise
Male | 30
Your symptoms, like red eyes, head pain, and dry throat during office work, might result from increased pressure. Poor posture or restricted blood flow could contribute. Improve your posture, take breaks, and hydrate properly. If issues persist, consult a doctor.
