You seem to have dislocated your ankle, which can give your leg a longer impression. Such occurrences are observed when the bones in your ankle are misplaced. To correct this, you should go to an orthopedist who can put the bones back into the right place. A splint or a brace may be used by them to enable your ankle to recover properly. Adhering to their recommendations is critical if you want your leg to be straightened and aligned with your other leg. Rest, elevate your leg, and stay away from putting weight on it until you see a doctor.

I m 30 yrs old I have back pain for last 2yrs I took MRI scan 2 months back and treatment but still I have back pain

Male | 30

There are many different reasons why people get back pain. It could be because of a muscle strain or problems with your discs. Also, if you still have the pain even after getting an MRI done and treated for it then more tests need to be carried out. Make sure you talk about what’s been happening with your doctor because they’ll need this information to help figure out what would work best for you.

Right hip subchondral sclerosis with fewill defindradiolucent areasnoted inhead of right femur

Male | 34

Subchondral sclerosis is when the bone becomes harder. Radiolucent areas are places where the bone isn’t as dense. These changes can cause pain and stiffness in the hip area. They may occur because of natural aging processes and wear and tear on our bodies over time. To relieve these symptoms, try doing exercises or going for physical therapy sessions.

My father is diabetic and takes insulin every day. For the past few months, he has been unable to walk for more than a few minutes. He has no problem standing for long while traveling in buses or walking up and down stairs. He has no knee pain but feels cramps in his calf muscles whenever he starts walking for more than 2 minutes. Around 3 years ago, he also lost a lot of weight and has never gained it back. He is 5.7ft and weighs less than 50 kgs. Is an orthopedic the right specialist to visit for treatment? What could be the causes behind his symptoms and how can they be treated? Does he need physiotherapy?

Male | 57

Your dad's walking problems and le­g pains could signal restricted blood flow. This condition, periphe­ral artery disease, make­s walking hard. Your dad losing weight and unable to walk well is worrying. He­ may need a vascular doctor to check his le­g circulation and treat the issue. Physical the­rapy could help build leg strength and improve­ blood flow 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.

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.
