Although fluoxetine and tramadol are both related to chemical levels in the brain, it is still not safe to mix them. In other words, their simultaneous consumption can intensify the likelihood of serotonin syndrome, a critical ailment that manifests symptoms such as confusion, sweating, and fast heartbeat. The best course of action would be for your physician to advise you on alternative pain relief options that are safe for you.

I am having very sharp and constant pain shooting from my outer elbow down to my pinkie and my thumb/ index finger. It's causing tingling and numbness to those fingers. I've tried putting ice packs on it but it makes the pain worse. And a little of the ulna looks to be protruding a little bit more then my other elbow. I have it at rest at the moment and the pain is constant
Female | 44
Ulnar nerve passes through a tunnel at the elbow - the cubital tunnel. When compressed, it can lead to symptoms like pain, tingling, and numbness in the ring and little fingers. The protrusion in your ulna bone might be worsening the compression. To manage this, try keeping your elbow in a relaxed position. Avoid resting it on hard surfaces or bending it excessively. See an orthopedist for proper diagnosis and treatment recommendations.

Some conditions can be resolved through rest and physical therapy. Be sure to tell your doctor what you’re experiencing, such as pain or difficulty moving. Knowing the cause of the problem can help determine whether or not an operation is required. You must follow the advice of your physician regarding the most appropriate treatment for yourself.

Male | 30
Your symptoms, like red eyes, head pain, and dry throat during office work, might result from increased pressure. Poor posture or restricted blood flow could contribute. Improve your posture, take breaks, and hydrate properly. If issues persist, consult a doctor.

Hi Ian 23 and back pain on my left side
Male | 23
Back pain can occur for several reasons like muscle strain from improper posture or lifting heavy things wrong. Other times it can be a symptom of a more serious problem. Try using hot or cold packs on the area, gentle stretching, and taking it easy for a bit first. If the pain persists or gets worse, it's wise to get it checked by an orthopedist to find out what's the matter.

Male | 26
Neck pain can have a variety of causes, including poor posture, stress and injury. It is important to see a doctor, an orthopedist in particular, to understand the issue and have it treated properly. Distributing the sitting time and practicing neck exercises can be another means of relieving symptoms as well.

Neck pain taken FNAC test...can you please look into the report
Male | 60
The report would say if there are any suspicious cells in the neck. Neck pain could arise such as poor posture, muscle strain, or an injury. The best way to get pain relief is to do some neck exercises gently, apply ice or heat, and use pain relievers. If the pain persists, you should refer an orthopedist for more advice.

Generally, surgery is the first thing among older people with a broken hip that is used to help with healing and mobility. The operation may be the only way to heal the fracture by getting it back in the right place. It's crucial to have a conversation about the best treatment approach for you with an orthopedist.

Pain where pelvis / femur connect severe pain when I stand up.
Male | 57
You might be experiencing a lot of discomfort where your pelvis connects with your thigh bone especially when standing up. This could be due to swelling or an injury in the muscles, tendons, or ligaments around that part of the body. You should rest, put ice on it, and avoid activities that make it worse. If this does not help then go and see an orthopedist who will examine you further before giving any treatment.

I have got burn in my ankle and i got wound.How Can i heal this fast.
Male | 25
Burns occur when skin contacts hot items like fire or boiling water. The area might be red, swollen, and painful. To heal faster, gently clean the wound, apply burn cream, and bandage it. Keep it clean and dry for a few days. If it doesn't improve or you notice pus or more pain, see a healthcare provider. But for now, keep it clean and protected.

Complete ACL tear with buckling of PCL and anterior tibial translation
Male | 15
When your ACL entirely tears, and PCL gets buckled hence your tibia shifts, it's a serious issue. You might be
in pain, and swollen, with the feeling that your knee is about to give up. This typically happens due to damages that occur to the knee such as sports accidents. This may involve surgical procedures and physical therapy to help you regain your fitness and mobility. Visit an orthopedist for further treatment.

I am a 43 year old female, I have been experiencing chronic lower back pain for the last 8 months, the pain feels like it is nerves, I have trouble walking and can only walk around 20 metres. I take lyrica and palexia, they do not seem to be working. This is having a huge impact in my life
Female | 43
Chronic lower back pain can have various causes, such as spinal herniation, muscle strain, or spinal stenosis. If the pain feels nerve-related and affects your ability to walk, it could indicate nerve compression or damage. If medications like Lyrica and Palexia aren't effective, consider discussing other options with an orthopedist, such as physical therapy, injections, or surgery.

I have pain in my hip or buttack and calf are pain
Male | 27
It is clear that you are suffering from pain in your hip or buttock and the calf comes along with pain. This may be because of a situation called sciatica, where the sciatic nerve gets irritated. Symptoms include shooting or burning pain. It is important to rest and not put pressure on the injured area, and the gentle stretching of the muscles to the point of pain is among the most likely options. Preventing activities that cause pain is also a good idea and consulting an orthopedic specialist for more suggestions is obligatory.

Female | 17
Your left leg and hip may be bothering you. Pain in both of those places could be caused by something such as sciatica, which is a nerve problem. Another reason might be muscle strain or arthritis. You should rest the area that hurts, put some ice on it, and if it’s bearable, gently stretch. If this doesn’t help, you should see an orthopedist.

Iam 21 years old male backache for 2 months and some health issues that I don't understand what should I do?
Male | 21
Back injury's roots can be different, due to incorrect body posture, overworked muscles, or stress. Any other signs you may have, including numbness or tingling in your legs, are equally important to listen to. Attempting to correct your posture, and undertake light stretching exercises, and hot or cold packs may also be beneficial for pain relief. When the pain does not diminish, it is advisable to consult an orthopedist for a second opinion and treatment.

My mother has left arm and shoulder pain for the past 2 days but hasn't had any injury recently. Is it serious like a heart attack symptom?
Female | 51
Arm and shoulder pain might be simple but never neglect it. It could indicate heart trouble. Watch for chest unease, breathing problems, and queasiness too. But muscle strain or poor posture causes such pain as well. Let your mother rest and ice the area - if the pain eases, no worries. However, if it persists or worsens, consult an orthopedist right away.

Let me know norfita in the leg
Male | 88
You might have a condition called sciatica in your leg. When the sciatic nerve is pinched or irritated, it can cause pain, tingling, or numbness in the leg. This can happen if there is pressure on this nerve from muscles or a slipped disc in the spine. You can relieve the symptoms with rest, gentle exercises, and applying ice or heat packs locally. If the pain worsens, visit an orthopedist.

I have a wound on my knee. Two days ago i fall in the road
Female | 22
I think you got a scratch on your knee when you fell. It's okay to have pain, redness, and swelling around your wound. This is because the fall has injured your skin. The solution is to gently clean the wound using soap and water, apply an antibiotic ointment, and cover it with an adhesive bandage. Always change the dressing daily until it heals. Opening up is necessary if the pain worsens or you notice any infections with symptoms like pus, light redness, or warmth.
