It's common to have slight asymmetries between body sides. Muscle development or alignment can sometimes cause this. Since it's not painful, it's likely not concerning. However, if you experience new symptoms or changes, visit an orthopedist.

Knee pain can be triggered by varied types of damage. Mostly, you might have overburdened your activities or it can be some sort of problem with your knee joint. You should rest your knee, apply ice, and elevate it in the first place. If the pain still goes on, then You should consult an orthopedist.

You were right to contact us about those crampy pains in your lower right back and side. Kidney issues can cause sensations like that sometimes. Even little kidney stones might feel similar. You must complete the full course of antibiotics prescribed. Drinking lots of water helps too. However, if the pain worsens or won't go away, you should let an orthopedist know.

Dehydration and bulging are exacerbating disc changes causing muscle spasms to occur along the spine. That is why you get to feel pain, and stiffness, and the nerves are more sensitive. The possible fixes involve some physical therapy procedures, anti-inflammatory drugs, and, if necessary, cor searches for tumor syndrome. Then things such as upright posture, free movement exercises, and heat therapy will also be beneficial. Please make sure that you visit an orthopedist consultation, and personalized treatment for you is also necessary.

This may be a symptom of several problems, including a herniated disc, sciatica, or urinary tract infection. Visit an orthopedic surgeon or a urologist as early as possible to receive a full diagnosis and proper treatment to address the underlying issue efficiently.

Your MRI shows a disc problem in your lower back, specifically at the L4-L5 level. This is causing pressure on nerves, leading to back pain and sciatica on the right side. It occurs when the soft material inside the disc pushes out. Treatment may include physical therapy, pain medications, and possibly surgery if severe. Make sure to follow up with an orthopedist for the best advice.

Male | 24
This could be a sign of a nerve being compressed or muscles strained. One has to be going on with the medical advice, as possible symptoms need good checking. Once in a while, the patient herself may get the pills from a pharmacist, still, the better way of recovering is done when she does physical therapy that deals with the error at the muscles by strengthening the muscles. Using ice packs or heating pads over the injured area can help it go away, but only for a short period. It would be more fitting if you could schedule another meeting with your orthopedist to re-evaluate and choose individual treatment options.

Waist pain which extends to my thigh
Female | 24
Waist pain that extends to your thigh may be caused by muscle strain due to activities such as bending or lifting, and the nerve problems of sciatica. You may also experience tingling or numbness in your leg. To feel better, try resting, applying ice, and doing gentle stretchings. If it doesn't get better, then it's best to see an orthopedist for more advice.

I am 35 years old ,I be feeling pains in tissue around my neck, my shoulder , my arms and my back and it causes constipation and difficulty to breathe for me
Male | 35
These symptoms could be due to a condition called fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia causes the pain to be distributed all over the body, apart from other symptoms like constipation and difficulty in breathing. It's essential to see an orthopedist to discuss your symptoms and get the right treatment to help manage the pain and discomfort.

Low back pain down to both legs
Male | 36
Sciatica causes your back nerve to feel squeezed. This makes both legs hurt, tingle, or go numb. You can try resting, using ice packs or heating pads, and gentle stretches. But don't wait too long - if leg pains remain, you should see an orthopedist. Further exams and treatments may be needed to address this common back problem.

Why does ac joint hurt?
Here are many things that can happen to the AC joint, but the most common conditions are arthritis, fractures and separations. Arthritis is a condition characterized by loss of cartilage in the joint, which is essentially wear and tear of the smooth cartilage that allows the bones to move smoothly. Like arthritis at other joints in the body, it is characterized by pain and swelling, especially with activity. Over time, the joint can wear out and get larger, with spurs forming around it. These spurs are a sign of the arthritis and not a cause of the pain. Reaching across the body toward the other arm aggravates arthritis at the AC joint. AC joint wear and tear is common in weight lifters, especially among those who bench press and to a lesser extent, military press. In weight lifters the arthritis at the AC joint has a special name — osteolysis.

1st Metatarsal bone fracture
Male | 26
A first metatarsal fracture may manifest itself in the form of pain and swelling, as well as walking difficulties. This kind of damage more often than not stems from physical traumas or overuse, especially in athletes. Normally, treatment is achieved using rest, ice, compression, and elevation to reduce swelling. An orthopedist might prescribe supportive shoes or a walking cast to keep the foot stable while healing. It’s very important not to do anything that could make things worse.

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.

Shoulder pain , and less movement while lifting the shoulder
Female | 48
Lifting your arm but feeling shoulder pain isn't great. Sometimes it results from tearing or overstretching a muscle. Frozen shoulder cases involve shoulder joint stiffness and reduced movement. To relieve the soreness, try gently stretching. However, if discomfort lingers, get evaluated by an orthopedist.

Female | 20
Discomfort can manifest through rib pain, shoulder aches, back discomfort on the right side, and challenges in breathing or bending when eating. These indicators could stem from muscle strain, digestive issues, or potential rib injury. For relief, consider resting, applying warmth, and utilizing over-the-counter pain medication. However, if the distress persists, visit an orthopedist.
