Do I Need Surgery for Torn Knee Ligaments?
Hello, doctor. The posterior cruciate and anterior cruciate ligaments in my right knee are torn. Do you think I need surgery? If surgery is necessary, what kind of treatment would you recommend?
Joint Replacement Surgeon
Answered on 28th Jan '25
Whether surgery is necessary depends on the severity of the tears and how they affect your daily activities. Non-surgical treatments, such as physical therapy and bracing, can sometimes effectively manage symptoms. However, if these approaches do not provide relief and your knee remains unstable, surgical reconstruction may be recommended. I encourage you to consult with an orthopedic specialist who can assess your situation thoroughly and help determine the best treatment plan tailored to your needs.

I am having a serious problem on my knee and day by day I am losing control of my leg. And now barely I can even walk, please tell me what should i do to get help from your knee specialist??
As per my understanding, you are experiencing discomfort in your waist & knee and gradual decreased sensation in your lower limbs, along with difficulty in walking as well. There are several causes which can lead to this kind of presentation. Causes generally are classified into spinal causes, traumatic causes or neuromuscular causes etc. Eg: slip disc, multiple sclerosis pinched nerve syndrome, peripheral neuropathy and many more. Treatment generally will be physiotherapy, occupational therapy, medication if required surgery but if there is weakness, difficulty in walking, or numbness, then it's a medical emergency. So kindly consult an orthopedic and a neurologist to rule out what exactly is the pathology behind your symptoms and get treated accordingly.

I m 65 year old, I have pain in my leg very much. I have 3 wall in my veins because of blockage. But my leg pain is very heavy. what can i do
Female | 65
This could be the result of an insufficient blood flow. The symptoms may also include coughing, breathing difficulties, shortness of breath, and chest pain, especially when exercising. Leg lifting, regular workouts, and wearing compression stockings may play a big role in the control of other health problems such as high blood pressure or diabetes. Discuss with the orthopedist the most suitable alternatives to relieve your leg pain.

My hips pain inside side sometimes no pain in daily activity or urination no daily sometimes but in winter sharp pain and my pain sometimes outsides of vagina which has lines on both sides on the line with monopibious and side colors is red allrgic red what my conditions and symptoms ??i fell no pain in vagina and urination .and i face drops after urine which are eliminated by cleaning with tissue am unmarried
Female | 22
As you described, the sharp hip pain you get during the winter months and the redness and lines outside the vagina might be due to a condition called vulvar dermatitis. This can be painful but it is not the cause of pain inside the vagina or during urination. The drops after urination could be the muscle around the bladder causing it. To alleviate the discomfort, gentle washing and wearing cotton underwear may help. If the symptoms persist, an orthopedist can provide further guidance.

Hi I'm Kay. My boyfriend diagnose with rheumatoid arthritis. he takes steroids since 4 years. Please suggest a diet plan for him. Could you please suggest me it can be affect a marriage life
Male | 32
Joint pain, swelling, and stiffness are some of the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. Steroids can be used to reduce inflammation in the affected areas. In the case of a healthy diet, one should eat more fruits and vegetables which contain vitamins that help fight diseases. Additionally, an individual can consume whole grains such as brown rice or oatmeal since they have fiber for easy digestion. Foods with high protein content like fish or beans should also not be left out. To promote general body wellness, patients should avoid taking processed sugars and other similar products. By so doing they will be able to manage most signs related to this condition.

Male | 22
Consult an orthopedist soon if you're experiencing reduced function in your fingers after a wrist injury and stitches. The cause of your symptoms may be nerve damage or reduced blood flow to the affected area, which results from certain types of injuries or surgical procedures.

I'm 19 yrs old girl, I'm getting pain in my knee cap while going up the stairs,the pain gradually decreases when I stopped moving upstairs.I do feel the pain even more when I'm cycling on a steep or elevated.Normally I don't feel any pain while doing daily activities.I don't even know what causes me pain in my knees.I didn't fall down in the past,but I cycled too much during the covid time in between 2019-2021& may be that's when I started feeling pain for the 1st time. Can you tell me why this happens, can I know the name of this kind of pain so that I can take care of myself?
Female | 19
According to what you said, it seems like you might have patellofemoral pain syndrome, which is a condition where the kneecap does not move smoothly over the thigh bone thus resulting in pain. Doing cycling excessively can also trigger it. Rest the knee, perform some light stretches, and do some strengthening workouts. See an orthopedist if the pain persists.

I am 35 years old and was sitting on my bed with my neck against the wall and it cracked and a body feels weak tingly and body hurts
Female | 35
Your neck might have made a cracking sound, which could have irritated your muscles and nerves. This can make your body feel weak, tingly, and painful. It's important to let your body rest, use a warm compress on your neck, and gently stretch to relieve the tension. Over-the-counter pain relievers can also help with the discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, be sure to contact an orthopedist for further evaluation.

My son's hip bones are out of the sockets and he's only able to walk using crutches. Due to severe pain, he's posture has been affected and he bends forward. He has developed some deformity on his back due to the posture. What can we do?
Male | 12
The pelvic mismatch tends to bring other related problems and thus, it should be corrected. In my view, a visit to a competent orthopedic doctor is the first step here. They can determine the extent of the situation after a thorough examination is performed. This would include a review of his joints and might lead to a recommendation for a more therapeutic approach such as physical.

I am 20 year old man, suffering with lower back pain beside either sides of spine. I've been lifting weights for quite a while now, recently whilst I was performing my deadlift (I hit it heavy past my capability)with a very bad posture and I heard a "chik" sound from my back the sound was negotiably light, but the actual pain started from there, as I'm a computer science student I'll have to sit on PC for hours...this problem has now limited my mobility and when I bend at certain angles it hurts like it wont allow me to bend and it even happens when i sit on same position for hours.... I've done several stretches and applied move creams for 2 3 days consecutively yet no difference... What should I do this problem is very annoying..
Male | 20
The incident that caused the sound you heard could be a muscle contraction or ligament stress. This phenomenon is a very frequent case when the back gets overloaded, and for that reason, the kinks distribute the pain to your left and right sides. Trying to alleviate the problem, in this case, applying ice packs and performing gentle stretches can be the best ones. However, if the pain persists, consult an orthopedist for further evaluation.

I am 34 years old,myself and my partner was kn a car crash last year march. We have physio (thunk it was 8 or 10 sessions) I had stiffness in my neck but after the physio it was fine. Last month my left arm from my shoulder to my elbow really hurts,I struggle to lift my left arm up and sometimes I have to use my right arm to move my left arm as its really painful.
Female | 34
You may have adhesive capsulitis, which is also referred to as a frozen shoulder. This usually occurs after an injury in the shoulder has taken place such as a car accident for example. Pain and stiffness are common symptoms of this condition thereby making it difficult for one to move the affected arm or arms. To alleviate these signs try gentle stretching exercises coupled with warm compresses applied to the painful area.

Male | 33
As a medical expert, the first advice to you is to consult a reputable orthopaedic surgeon for the correct diagnosis and treatment plan for your femur condylar bone fracture. This may intensify a possible complication later. Surgery might be necessary, but this matter can be only clarified only after a thorough examination of your case.

Please I have severe pain in my lower back down to both of my legs
Male | 24
You might be suffering from sciatica, a condition where pain starts in your lower back and goes down to your legs. This happens because a nerve in your back is under pressure. The pain can be shooting, sharp, or constant. To relieve the pain, it is important to rest, use heat or ice packs, and do gentle stretches. If the pain persists, it's best to see an orthopedist for further tests and treatment options.

I have needles in my back
Female | 23
You may feel a “pins and needles” sensation in your back when a nerve is compressed in the neck, shoulders, or upper back. Common causes include poor posture, muscle strain, and pinched nerves. To help, try gentle stretching, maintain good posture, and apply a warm or cold pack. If the discomfort persists, consider consulting an orthopedist.

Back burning and chubhan
Male | 25
This might be a result of many things like straining your muscles, sleeping in a bad position, or even having problems with the nerves. You may also experience it if you have been sitting or standing for long periods or lifting heavy objects. To relieve this, you can do some gentle stretching exercises, correct your posture, and use warm pads. In case this feeling continues, visit an orthopedist.

My Mother is getting Pain on Shoulder and Neck since Last Week . She is more than 50 Year old. Due to this Pathay Pain she is unable to sleep and Work. I am living in Saudia but worried about their Health
Female | 50
Such problems as shoulder pain and neck trouble can have different sources like muscle tension, wrong position, or degenerative changes which primarily occur in people over 50. Not being able to sleep and, consequently, not being able to work also contribute to the situation. Suggest she apply the heat or cold packs and do the stretching exercises very gently. Then, the correct posture is also a necessary requisite. Nevertheless, it has been a week, and I suggest that you consult an orthopedist for the examination and personalized treatment.

Why do I have a bony lump on top of my left shoulder?
Female | 30
That bony lump is likely an "acromial spur." It happens from wear and tear on your shoulder joint. You might feel pain when moving your arm or raising it up high. To help with discomfort, try gentle shoulder exercises. Also, apply ice to reduce swelling. If the pain continues, see a physiotherapist for guidance. They can advise on ways to manage the condition.
