Can I Get Artificial Toe Implant After Injury?

Hello! My name is Sergey, and I am a close acquaintance of the patient who has sent you this inquiry regarding consultation for implantation. The patient is 37 years old and sustained an injury 6 years ago due to the fall of a heavy object. Several surgeries were performed, and the amputation of the left big toe was carried out. In this regard, we would like to inquire if you have a solution for this issue. We are interested in proceeding with the procedure of implanting an artificial toe with load-bearing functionality. Best regards!

One balance and mobility issue that might arise with a patient losing their toe is that they would have an imbalance. We know the pain and suffering that occurs after such an injury, and the patients are aware of this too. For the patients, your friend, and people such as him, artificial toe prosthetics have been developed which could give back some of the lost functions. A fake toe is sure to offer load-bearing support and improve the overall quality of life. We suggest a consultation with some orthopedic prosthesis field experts so that they can discuss with you which alternative is the right one for your friend. By such a means of professional advice, the best solutions will be gained.

Questions & Answers on "Orthopedic" (1185)

Recently I started doing yoga again, and ive immediately been reminded why i stopped before. Basically some stretches feel fine, like once in the sides of my torso. But some other stretches i feel nothing at all, like if i put my soles together i can keep my knees fully on the floor and lie all the way forward and still feel absolutely no stretch, this is what most stretches feel like. But then some other stretches hurt WAYY to much, most importantly my hamstrings, i cannot lean even a bit forward with my legs straight and it already hurts like heck. I have no improvement in my hamstrings when doing more "gentle" yoga stretches, but then when i tried pushing myself a bit more in stretching my hamstrings, it would start hurting in my knees so much when i walked, almost like a pop or click with every step. Recently i considered the possibility of possibly being hypermobile, i can put my pinky fingers 90 degrees up, i can reach my wrists with my thumbs and i can do that thing where i lock my hands together behind my back and can put them over my head without letting go. I also get a strange uncomfortableness/awareness in my joints sometimes, not even a pain just uncomfortable. So basically my question is, do you think im hypermobile? and if so how (if possible) can i still do stretches/yoga without either feeling nothing or feeling intense pains? And is there any way i can get rid of the uncomfortableness in my joints?

Female | 19

It sounds like you may be hypermobile, which means your joints can move more than usual. You might have less stretch during yoga or feel intense pain in some stretches as symptoms. Instead of pushing too hard when stretching, focus on gentle moves for flexibility because this can help protect your joints. Also, make sure not to do any position that causes discomfort or hurts.

I am having really bad pain in my left foot my left foot is swollen and my right foot is not swollen a little bit of fluid is coming out of my left foot and it's red and I am not able to find a doctor to help me I'm almost to the point where I want to cut my own foot off I am sick and tired of having constant pain I've been having this pain for more than a year

Female | 40

Your left foot is causing proble­ms. There's swelling, pain, and re­dness. Fluid build up too. An infection could be the­ issue. Or an injury perhaps. Maybe e­ven gout. The inflammation symptoms are worrying. You ne­ed help quickly. Antibiotics might help if infe­cted. Pain medication would ease­ discomfort. Draining fluid may be neede­d too.

I started having muscle pain/ache in my outer right hip area a day after I changed my everyday footwear a week ago. Pain is dull and bearable but irritating. It usually starts when walking and tends to go away slowly when sitting in a relaxed sitting position. Sometimes it also starts when sleeping. I'm not taking any medication of any kind. I'm underweight due to my lifestyle and eating habits.

Male | 24

It seems that you have muscle pain on the outside right hip region. This pain could have been caused by changing shoes. Muscles can ache if they are tense or strained. In addition, if you are too thin, your muscles may easily get tired. Put on supportive footwear, stretch gently and take a good diet so that your muscles can heal. Also, make sure to rest and avoid activities that worsen the ache.

Female | Shail tiwari

Typical signs are swelling, stiffness, or pain during any movement. To get rid of this, apply ice, put the leg up, and take over-the-counter painkillers if needed. It is essential to include strengthening exercises and weight management for health benefits. But, if the symptoms persist or become worse, you should consult an orthopedist for a comprehensive evaluation and individualized advice.

I fractured my humorous up next to my shoulder and now my wrist and hand are swollen and badly bruised. My concern to s blood poisoning

Male | 63

You might be seeking information on sepsis, which is also known as blood poisoning. The issue of swelling and contusions is not only at the site of the fracture but may also occur in the forearm and hand. Although it may be alarming, it's usually not a symptom of blood poisoning. In case your health condition is deteriorating and you're fighting such symptoms as fever, tachycardia, and disorientation, you should not waste time seeking a medical consultation. Please also remember to keep your arm above the level of your heart and put the ice on the place to keep the swelling down.
