Can I Walk Without Support with Healed Patellar Tendon Tear?
Hello, I had a partial tear in the patellar tendon in the right knee. The doctor gave me a belt to stabilize the leg, which was loose for more than a month. At the appointment, he said that the tear had healed without me taking an x-ray. He sent me to physical rehabilitation to do the classes. My question is, can I walk without that belt and crutch? To strengthen the thigh muscle

Your kneecap tendon has healed, which is great! If you feel unsure about walking without support, that's normal. It's important to start slowly and listen to your body. If you experience any discomfort, continue using a knee brace or crutches. As you grow stronger and more stable, gradually reduce your reliance on them.

Last week I fell and hit my knee. It is bruised and swollen. There are no breaks or cracks in the area. Today the bruise on my knee is starting to fade but the swelling is hard. Her legs can walk as usual, but sometimes it hurts, she can't straighten and feel pressured in the swollen part. Because the swelling is hot and hard. Kdng2 is tired and throbbing. When she wants to straighten her legs, she will crack her knees and feel heavy. When I sit down he is depressed in his knees. Is it dangerous or is it normal to get hit?

If you are experiencing a hematoma, where blood pools and forms a lump underneath the skin. The swelling, hardness, and discomfort are general signs. It is common to sense these sensations while your body is healing. An ice pack, leg elevation, and painkillers can be used to provide relief. If the pain increases or if there is difficulty moving the knee, an orthopedist should be consulted for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Female | Awantika
Back pain can be a lot of reasons such as muscle strain or even a slipped disc. In some cases, painkillers may not be enough to get you on the right track. It is the first step in getting the proper treatment, so I recommend getting the help of an orthopedist who can guide you with exercises or physical therapy to make your back muscles stronger and soothe the pain.

I feel like dizzy and stiff back in the early morning. Please suggest a solution for this??
Male | 23
There are many reasons why you might wake up feeling dizzy and with a sore back. It might be that you did not drink enough water before going to bed, or that you slept in an awkward position which caused your back to become stiff. To combat this, try drinking some fluids before falling asleep and refrain from shifting your weight onto alternate sides during the night. Moreover stretching gently upon waking up can help loosen any tight muscles. If none of these solutions work then it would probably be wise to consult a orthopedist.

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.

Healing time for shoulder tendinosis can vary, but generally, it takes a few weeks to a few months. It's good that you're on medication and doing physiotherapy. Please continue your treatment and follow up with your orthopedic doctor for the best advice.

Male | 28
Your complaint involves the left side of the chest and shoulder/collar bone which has been present for the past two weeks. It may be caused by many things like a muscle strain, an injury, or even heartburn. Besides that, other symptoms such as difficulty breathing, sweating, or nausea may also be present in more severe cases. It's of the utmost importance to rest, apply ice, and stay away from vigorous exercises. Should the pain be persistent or get worse, you are advised to see an orthopedist.

Female | 20
It's important to address your recurring lower back pain, especially since it's now affecting your hip area. These symptoms could indicate a musculoskeletal issue or a possible strain. I recommend consulting an orthopedic specialist or a physiotherapist. They can evaluate your condition, suggest appropriate exercises or treatments, and provide guidance on managing and preventing further discomfort.

When I was 10 years old, my wrist was broken and now i am 18 years old and i have facing elbow deformity problem . please tell me now what can i do
Male | 18
Your elbow could be bent because the bone broke and healed that way, blocking it from moving correctly. When you were 10, you injured your wrist and now at the age of 18, this could be the cause of the elbow deformity. An orthopedist should be able to examine everything and then tell you what to do about it which may involve physical therapy or even an operation to fix the problem.
