Can I Reverse Osteopenia with Supplements at 24?
Hello Doctors!! I'm 24 years old unintentionally found my bone mineral density score is -2.09 in a office health camp. After reading on internet I'm getting panic. 1. Is this condition (osteopenia) common in a person of my age? 2. Can I get back to normal score? 3. Can I reverse by using vitamin and mineral supplements? Thanks in advance ????????

Anyone at any age can have Osteopenia. So you’re not alone. Catching it early is wise. Eat foods with calcium, get vitamin D from the sun, and do some walking or other weight-bearing exercises so you can pick up your score. Consider taking supplements if there’s a lack of them in your body, but always consult an orthopedist first.

I had a question I was eating and accidentally put to much sugar and my back being hurting for the pass 4 days
Male | 17
Eating too many sweet things can make your back hurt. Sugar can make your body inflamed, and that leads to pain in your back. You should eat less sweet foods and drinks. Eat more fruits, veggies, and whole grains instead. Drink lots of water too. Light exercise might also help your back feel better. If you don't feel relieved, contact an orthopedist.

I feel pain chest pain while breathing out when move head downward
Male | 21
When breathing out or moving your head down, you experience chest discomfort. This issue stems from muscle strain between ribs or in the chest wall area. Occasionally, rib joint inflammation can cause this sensation. To alleviate symptoms, rest is recommended, along with warm compresses on the affected area and over-the-counter pain relievers. However, if the condition persists, consulting an orthopedist may be advisable.

Hi i fell on the ground after taking a bath my left arm is hurting and when i twist on the right side it hurt even more still hurting when it's still.
Male | 16
The pain might occur the most when you turn in a clockwise direction. It could be due to a sprain or pull in the muscles or even a fracture in the bone. Your arm should be rested, iced, and worked without movement. If the pain doesn't go away, the best step to take would be to consult an orthopedist.

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.

I’m 50 yrs old and have been suffering with planters fasciitis for years. It started after working at Home Depot. I seen an orthopedic back in 2002 ish, got an injection and was fine. I then left HD and came back yrs later. Now it’s back and I believe I’m also dealing with Achilles tendonitis. My mother who drove a bus for 30 yrs has also dealt with this for a very long time. She can barely walk and I’ve started limping. I don’t want this to slow me down but the doctors here in Wichita Falls are not much help and my mother hasn’t been able to get any relief in California or now in Arizona. My question is is there anything we can do. I have 6 kids, 3 of which are still in school. I can’t just slow down. And I hate seeing how miserably mother is. We are both taking Duloxitine, which helps sometimes. Besides surgery is there anything we can do?
Female | 50
Plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis can be quite bothersome, but there are several ways to ease the pain. Try stretching exercises for your calves and feet, wear supportive shoes, use orthotic inserts, apply ice to reduce inflammation, and take over-the-counter pain relievers. It's also important to avoid activities that make the pain worse.

Hi..I am a 39 year old female and slipped and fell on a wet floor at a function that I attended. However my foot started swelling up and my knee and the side of my knee is painful and swollen although I can walk with a limp so I don't think anything is broken...could it be Muscle injury or tendons etc...
Female | 39
According to the symptoms you are going through, it is likely that you bruised your knee or your muscles or tendons around it got injured. This might present as a combination of swelling, pain, and immobility of the leg Lie down while putting your feet up, apply a cold compress to the area, stretch your leg, and wrap it with a long elastic bandage to reduce swelling. If the pain persists, replays, or intensifies, or you find it hard to bear its weight, go to the orthopaedist.

I am 33 years old male and have some shawaling (सूजन) problem in my left knee Last night, I have used pain relief ointment cream.But no any relief . what should I do now.
Male | 33
Swelling is the outcome of many reasons like injury, overuse, and also arthritis. Since the pain relief cream didn't help, try using an ice pack on your knee for 15-20 minutes a few times a day. Moreover, give your knee some rest whenever possible. If the swelling stays unchanged, you might consider consulting an orthopedist for more tests.

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.

I hurted myself on knees so since 4 hrs it's paining but there is no swelling so should I visit Dr or it will be fine after weeks
Male | 22
Even without swelling, pain can happen due to injury or overuse. Rest your knee, ice it, and elevate it. If the pain doesn't improve in two days, seeing a doctor is wise. Many potential causes exist for knee pain without swelling. Resting, icing, and elevating are good first steps. If the pain persists, seek medical attention.

6 years back I got accident with my knees small scar is there know I got married I have tried to date with my wife suddenly I am facing issues of injury in that place bleeding also now how can I resolve this problem can you please let me know
Male | 32
The old scar from your previous knee injury might have opened up, which caused you to be bleeding. This can be due to scar tissue that is old and brittle. The bleeding may be due to a small trauma or irritation. To aid, wash the area with soap and water, put a sterile dressing on it, and do not press on it. If the bleeding does not stop, you should see an orthopedist.

Hi, I was playing football and me and a mate were tackling I went to kick the football and accidentally caught the front of my ankle on the goal post. It has no swelling but I am having to use my umbrella to stay stood up and I can't put much pressure on it.
Male | 15
Your ankle's front is the shin area. Maybe you hurt your shin or stretched ligaments after hitting that post. You're struggling to stand and feeling pain - natural with ankle injuries. Rest your ankle, apply an icepack to cut swelling, and raise your leg. Use crutches to avoid placing weight on it. If pain doesn't ease, see an orthopedist for evaluation and treatment advice.

Pain on my side at the back
Female | 30
Pain on your backside can have different causes. It can be the result of muscle strain from the performance of activities such as lifting heavy loads and bad posture. Sometimes it could be a kidney problem. If the pain is on one side near the back, it may be a kidney problem. Drinking enough water and resting can help if it's a muscle strain. But if the pain persists or worsens, visit an orthopedist.

I m getting sharp shooting pain in right side..
Female | 29
It sounds as if you have sciatica. Sciatica causes sharp shooting pains to run down one of your legs. It is caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve in the lower back. This may be from a slipped disk or tight muscles. To help relieve the pain, gently stretch the area, apply ice packs, and avoid sitting too long without changing positions. If these suggestions do not work, consult with an orthopedist who can provide further treatment options for you.
