Do I need to treat my foot bone bruising?
For bruising on foot ankle bone do I put something on it as I had a fall two weeks ago and have yellow bruising and swelling
Orthopaedic Surgery
Answered on 1st July '24
The ankle contusion and the swelling of your ankle socket could be blood vessels rupturing under the skin. Such occurrences often accompany injuries. You can alleviate the swelling by placing your foot in an elevated position, applying a cold pack, and using painkillers that are over the counter to control the pain. Besides staying off the feet, which helps relieve the pain, it's best to allow the feet the healing time they need. If the pain does not resolve or worsens, seek the opinion of an orthopedist.

I have a problem with my lower waist for years now
Male | 18
Back pain comes and goes. But hurting for years is very bad. It might mean you have muscles that are tight or weak. Poor posture or not exercising can cause this problem. Also, sit and stand up straight. Going to a physical therapist can give you exercises to make it better.

Hi, I just got my results back from a lumbar MRI and it says I have buldging associated with anular tear discs L4 and L5. And deshidrated discs L4 and L5. What does this mean? Will I get better without surgery? Will I ever get back to normal? Will I ever be able to go back to the gym and cycling? Right now I feel tight and Im in pain no matter the position, it's hard to do normal day activities and to walk kinda long distances, I can't lift anything not even light things and can't bend forward. I WILL take the results to the doctor once I get my paycheck but I wanna get a 2nd opinion in the meantime. Thanks

If you have bulging or herniated discs in your lower back, it can cause pain and stiffness. This is usually due to aging, general “wear and tear,” or injury. Most of these problems can improve with physical therapy, rest, and pain medicine. Surgery may be needed in some cases. Visit an orthopedist to find out the treatment options.

Sir Shoulder pain carry to Arm 8 month ago to yet
Male | 38
Your shoulder and arm pain lasting 8 months sounds difficult. This prolonged discomfort could stem from muscle or joint issues, like inflammation or injury. It's crucial to give your arm and shoulder proper rest. Ice packs can help reduce swelling. Gentle stretching exercises, as guided by a physical therapist, may provide relief too.

Left thumb facture due to accident
Male | 30
Your left thumb is hurt. You feel pain, and swelling, it's bruised, and you can't move it well. A fall or hit caused your thumb to break. Don't use your thumb. Put ice on it to reduce the swelling. See an orthopedist for an X-ray. They'll check how bad the fracture is. The doctor may put a splint or cast on your thumb to help it heal correctly.

I am 20 years old man andi dislocated by ring finger while playing cricket, i think its broken and i can't bend my finger
Male | 20
It might be true if you have been suffering pain, looking at the swelling, and unable to bend the finger. A difficult event such as a strong impact or force is usually the reason for its occurrence. At this point, you should cease all activities, place ice on the area, and raise your hand. Medical attention by an orthopedist must be given so that the treatment will be done correctly.

Muje back spin pain hora gai
Male | 18
Your back may hurt because of lifting heavy objects, sitting around too much, or moving the wrong way. To feel better you should rest as much as possible and use either ice packs or heating pads on the affected area for short periods. In addition, try some gentle stretching exercises but be careful not to overdo it. If the pain continues, visit an orthopedist.

I have a ganglion cyst on my wrist I'm suppose to have surgery on in the morning, the cyst disappeared 3 days ago. Should I still have the surgery or will they do the surgery still
Male | 37
Your ganglion cysts aren't often painful, though sometimes annoying or movement-limiting. Since yours vanished naturally, surgery might not be required anymore. However, inform your doctor about this development so they can reassess if the operation is still necessary or not.

Ankle swelling no pain But all time swelling
Female | 49
Painless ankle swelling may come from fluid buildup or poor blood flow. Our bodies retain too much water at times. Blood circulation issues in legs can also cause swelling. Raising your legs and cutting salt may help. But if swelling remains, see an orthopedist for evaluation.

A glass bowl fell on my knee and broke. the glass didnt cut me but it hit the left side of my left knee and now theres a small bump on the right side of my left knee. i feel like i might have dislocated the knee cap but its only a small bump. its really uncomfterble when i move it and it feels hyper extended when i try to straighted my leg. Pressing lightly under the bump hurts when i have my knee relaxed. im able to straighted it with almost no pain but it feels off anytime i move my knee. its been around 2 days now and ive been putting ice on it and using crutches. when the bowl hit my knee i was sitting in a chair and two other bowls fell (a plastic bowl that didnt hit me and another glass bowl that hit my ankle, my ankle is fine) imeditly after the bowl hit my knee it hurt and when i got up i could feel the pain shooting up and down my leg.
Other | 16
Your knee might have gotten hurt when the bowl hit it. The bump and discomfort could mean your kneecap moved out of place. When that happens, it causes pain, swelling, and trouble moving. Good thing you iced it and used crutches. Don't put weight on your knee for now. Let it rest. But if the pain doesn't go away in a few days, see an orthopedist to make sure everything's alright.
