One big reason for this is bad posture. It’s also possible if you were carrying around something heavy like school books in a backpack or if pulled a muscle. Here are some tips that might help: try to sit up straight when you’re sitting down, don’t pick up anything too heavy, and make sure your desk is set up correctly for you. You could also try doing some easy exercises or gentle stretches – they sometimes provide relief from these sorts of aches and pains. But if nothing changes and the ache won’t go away, you must talk to an adult about seeing an orthopedist who knows more about health.

Facing joints pain and severe headache from past few days for no reason.
Male | 35
Inflammation or overworking joints causes aches. Many reasons behind headaches exist - stress, bad sleep, and more. Make sure to drink plenty of water daily. Rest well. Manage stress proactively. Apply warmth to sore joints. Give your mind breaks to relax periodically. If pain persists, see an orthopedist promptly.

Male | 20
Let me suggest that you never move any weight on your ankle until it is completely healed. Even slow walking puts too much pressure on the fracture, and it can still cause more injury.Please follow your doctor's advice

Hi im a 27 year old man and my head keeps cracking when I turn my head I had it since 2022 I don't have pain im quite worried about it
Male | 27
Usually, the cracking sound comes from the joints of your neck which are connected to your spine. It is probably because of air bubbles shifting, which is similar to cracking your knuckles. If you don't experience any pain, then it is nothing to be concerned about. Nonetheless, if you notice any discomfort or other symptoms, it is advisable to consult an orthopedist to get the necessary advice.

I am abhishek yadav.my problem is Acl partial tear. I am Indian army.can I running as before after surgery.and how many cost of surgery and how many time after complete recovery
Male | 27
Acupuncture points help in rehabilitation of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) . Using the local and distal points in acupuncture, it helps in repair of ligaments and reduces the rehabilitation time.
Acupuncture combined with seed and magnet therapy, moxibustion have miraculously helped in treating ACL tear naturally I.e without surgery.
One can lead a normal life once a patient is pain free.
The treatment time depends on the severity of the patient but nonetheless 12- 15 sessions will be required which will help reduce the pain and repair the ligament. Further course of treatment can be advised post the knee scan.

I had bypass surgery from left to right leg, balloon was placed to open blood flow, had stent put in on left side, im home now but experiencing leg pain and every once in awhile sharp pain on top of foot , is this normal ? I can find pulse on top of foot , dr said to find that if i can
Female | 57
Having some pain and discomfort in your leg after bypass surgery and having a stent put in is normal. The cause of the leg pain might be your body getting used to the new blood flow and the healing process. The sharp pain on your foot's top may be nerve irritation. It's good you can feel the pulse on your foot, but if the pain gets severe or doesn't improve, it's important to let your orthopedist know. Meanwhile, keep your leg elevated, take any prescribed pain medication, and gently massage your leg to ease the discomfort.

Sir mein jab 10 year ka tha tabhi mera hand ka elbow tut gaya tha abhi mein 18 saal ka hun mera elbow deformity problem hei kaise thik kare kabhi kabhi bahot dard hota hei kisiko dikhana mein bhi saram ata hei lekin mera hand bilkul sidha hei lekin elbow ke upar ke gebu ke type kuch hua hei kya kare
Male | 18
Most probably the problem you’re having is as a result of a broken elbow at the age of ten years old. This can cause the joint to be deformed hence uncomfortable. You should therefore see an orthopedic surgeon who will examine your situation and give a suitable prescription for treatment. Depending on how serious the deformity, they can propose some physiotherapy exercises or even surgery.

I am a 20 year old male. I have observed that the growth of my arm bone(both the hands) stopped in teen years which resulted in unusually thin arms. What should I do?
Male | 20
You have skinny arms due to delayed bone growth. This can be caused by factors like genetics, poor diet, or hormones. It's important to see your doctor; they can evaluate your condition and recommend treatment. In the meantime, focus on foods rich in calcium and vitamin D, as these help strengthen bones. Also, working out and lifting weights can build muscle and strengthen your arms. However, your orthopedist’s advice will be the most helpful, so ensure to follow it.

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 got a bruised toe I can barely lift it, it hurts if I try to lift it I was wondering if it's broken
Female | 32
You may have a broken toe. Dropping something heavy on the toe or stubbing it hard can cause a broken toe. Symptoms of a sprained toe include pain, bruising, and difficulty moving the toe. To be sure, you should get an X-ray at a clinic or hospital. Icing, resting, and keeping the toe safe from injury will give relief to the pain.

The pain you are suffering from could be caused by something that sits on the nerves. This can be the result of vertebrae that are not in the right place or if the area around them is swollen. You must consult a neurosurgeon. They will undergo tests and causes of these problems, and propose a suitable treatment plan,

Hi, I'm a 22 year old male with back pain, I've been to doctors loads of times for the past 7-8 months but all they been telling me is to take pain killers and exercise, ive had a MRI scan which showed L5-S1 left subarticular disc protrusion and L4-5 facet joint arthropathies is that right for them to keep telling me to exercise?
Male | 22
The MRI scan reveals a disc disorder, along with an ache from the facet joint. Workouts can make your muscles healthier and render them more flexible, which is very helpful when managing the pain. You really must stick to the exercise plan of the physiotherapist without fail to reduce the damage caused. Painkillers are one way of pain relief, but the long-term solution comes from exercise, and maybe a few more such treatments like physical therapy depending on the severity of the problem.
