Why Do I Have Upper Shoulder Blade Heaviness?
Feeling heavy in the upper part of my shoulder blade, is this an indication of stroke?
Joint Replacement Surgeon
Answered on 28th Aug '24
Heaviness around your upper shoulder blade typically doesn't indicate a stroke occurring. Stroke symptoms manifest suddenly: numbness or weakness affecting one side, facial drooping, speech difficulties, trouble walking. Confusion may also arise. If experiencing such symptoms, visit an orthopedist.

I'm a 18 year old female and I've been having cramps in my left hand, mainly from elbow under to wrist and my fingers feel kind of stiff. It happened for the first time 3/4 days ago and went away automatically in about 20 mins. It happened twice today and again went on it's own. Nothing done to trigger it. A bit of neck pain. Have generalised anxiety disorder and currently tapering off of Paxidep 12.5 . The cramps kind of feel like weakness and dull ache. I can't call it painful as it does not cause pain but a bit uncomfortable.

I had a sharp pain when I woke up and I want to know if I should go into the office for it
Female | 23
Waking with discomfort can seem worrisome, yet common causes exist. It might've been from an awkward sleeping position or strained muscles. Try gentle stretching exercises or a warm shower for relief. However, if pain persists or intensifies, then seeking medical attention from an orthopedist would be prudent.

Female | 37
Lower back and hip pain result from many factors, like muscle strain, arthritis, or slip disc. It is better to consult a orthopedist for a proper diagnosis and treatment. An orthopedist can talk about physical therapy, medication and surgery if needed. Remember not to use self-medication and medical consultation to manage the pain.

Sir, my uric acid was high and pain in my leg joint after taking medicine febuxostat 80 mg it comes normal 5.5 but still I have pain in my joint, I am taking zero dol pain killer also. So pls guide
Male | 35
It’s possible that the high uric acid caused damage to your joint before going down. This can lead to lingering pain. You are doing well by taking a febuxostat and a painkiller. Rest the joint, apply ice, and try gentle exercises to strengthen the area. If the pain continues, see an orthopedist for further advice.

Female | 39
You are suffering from pain in the left side of the back, heartache, and shortness of breath which are challenging symptoms. They could be owing to some issue with your heart or lungs. It is crucial to consult an orthopedist as soon as possible to get the right diagnosis and treatment.

Regarding some medicine .... I m having osteoarthritis
Female | 49
Osteoarthritis is a condition that can cause pain and stiffness in your joints. The tissues that cushion your joints wear away, leading to this problem. Sometimes it may be due to old age, an injury, or obesity. You can do low-impact exercises such as walking or swimming to relieve the pain. Alternatively, apply ice packs or use heating pads on the affected area. Furthermore, purchasing footwear with proper arch support may also alleviate discomfort.

Im a female 33 years old i suffer from scoliosis since birth and ive done 3 operation the last one was in 2004 which caused injury to my spinal cord. I can feel and walk with crutch and i can take one or two step without support, my right leg is more affected than my left. I read that only injuries less than one year or 2 is perfect for stem cells, my injury is 20 years old. Would it be possible for the stem cell therapy to work in my case ? Thank you
Female | 33
You are hoping stem cell therapy might help with your scoliosis. But stem cell therapy is still being studied and is not a normal treatment for back injuries yet. Since your injury happened a while ago, it may be less likely to work well. It is important to keep following your current treatment plan. You should talk to your orthopedist about any new therapies that might help you too.

Male | 22
For your knee injury and MRI results, I suggest you see an orthopedic surgeon. Only a professional can exactly evaluate the degree of your injury and know if a surgical measure will do or not. You should go to a local orthopaedist to determine the nature and to provide the best possible treatment for it.

This change in symptoms could be due to inflammation, fluid movement, or the healing process. If the pain persists, it's advisable to consult a professional orthopedist for evaluation and guidance to ensure proper recovery and address any concerns.

My brother is 23 years old and he suffered from covid before 9 months and he had pain in hip joint and legs so we did mri and the reports said AVN in hip joint 2-3 stage so they suggested surgery to drill in bone to start the blood flow as before . I want to know the percentage of success and how operation will take place
Male | 23
Acupuncture distal and local points along with Moxibustion and electro stimulation would help a patient dealing with AVN hip pain. Acupuncture helps in increasing the immunity and helps in reducing the after- effect covid symptoms.
Electro acupuncture can also help in increasing the blood flow.
When the needles are inserted in the body, our body releases natural chemicals to fight the illness or symptom. Hence AVN can be treated with acupuncture combined with medical aid to control severe pain in the hip joint.
Acupuncture is a boon in AVN to boost up the response and reduce the recovery time taken by patients. It helps in increasing the increases the overall positivity of the patient as the acupuncture sessions advances patients start feeling better and their overall condition improves to a large extent.

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.
