Answered on 23rd May '24
Leg stiffness when walking despite improved eating habits, and exercise, could be due to worsened inflammation, muscle tightness, nerve irritation, or joint problems. I would advice you to consult with a orthopedic professional for a proper diagnosis and tailored treatment for you..

I've been getting pain in my sacrum since two days. It's severe pain and a slight swelling in the area.
Male | 21
Swelling may signal inflammation, caused by injury, poor posture, or prolonged sitting. Try gentle stretches, ice, or over-the-counter pain meds. But if pain persists or worsens, see a dermatologist. They'll examine you and advise next steps.

What should do for knee pain
Female | 49
For knee pain, it is important to rest and avoid activities that strain the knee. Applying ice packs, using a compression bandage, and keeping the knee elevated can help reduce pain and swelling. However, it’s best to consult an orthopedic doctor to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan tailored to your condition.

I have been suffering from stiff elbow post injury.. no fracture but ligament tear. I have been advised physiotherapy and have been undergoing it since 4months. But no improvement. Should I consult a neurologist for this?? I have consulted number of orthopaedic doctors
Female | 37
The challenge posed by a stiff elbow following an injury can be daunting, particularly when physical therapy fails to yield substantial improvements. A pinched nerve sometimes occurs, which is hard to admit. If your arm is still hurting and you want to find a solution, a neurologist is one of the doctors who could offer the right advice in addition to your treatment plan. They can view the problem and also find an effective way to release your tension.

Hi, I'm taking 1.5ml of Testosterone Ethanate 300mg/ml once per week but I'm due to get a cortisone injection in my hand for trigger finger in 2 weeks time. Will this be ok to have whilst I'm taking this?
Male | 40
Testosterone Ethanate (T.E.) is a hormone, while cortisone is a medication used to reduce inflammation. Getting a cortisone injection for the trigger finger shouldn't be an issue while on T.E., as they work differently in the body. However, always inform your orthopedist about all medications you're taking. Trigger finger occurs due to tendon inflammation, causing fingers to get stuck in a bent position. A corticosteroid injection can reduce the inflammation and relieve symptoms.

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.

Hello my name is Rohan. Yesterday I fell under a car and my leg is swollen. I went to the doctor but it didn't make any difference. Please tell me how to remove leg swelling because I have an exam tomorrow
Male | 15
Swelling in your leg can occur due to the injury. It is your body's way of safeguarding itself. If the swelling does not subside, try elevated rest, ice pack application, and wear a compression bandage. These measures can help you swell less and thus, ease your pain and make your exam successful.

Male | 66
Your father regularly suffers from knee pain and swelling which can be a bothering problem for him. This might be arthritis, a condition responsible for joint pain and swelling. It is good that he is consuming vitamin D and calcium because they are essential for good bone health. Yet, he may want to see an orthopedist for the medication of pain relief and physical therapy to manage the pain better.

I have a lump on my foot and I was wondering if it was something that I needed to get looked at immediately.
Female | 22
Lumps can form on feet for various reasons. They might result from an impact, like bumping against something. Or they could signify a cyst or wart. If the lump causes discomfort, grows larger, or interferes with walking, seeking medical attention is advisable. An orthopedist can properly diagnose and treat the condition based on the lump's nature.

I am 21 years old. I have been having a sharp pain in my left shoulder blade for up to four months now
Male | 21
You may have a muscle strain in your left shoulder blade. This happens when you use that muscle a lot or have poor posture. You may feel sharp pain, especially when moving your arm. Try gently stretching and putting ice on the area. Do not do things that make the pain worse. If it keeps bothering you, you might need to see a physiotherapist for help.

I am 22 female I have a bump on my foot that is getting bruised and bigger
Female | 22
You could have what’s referred to as a bunion. A bunion is a bony bump that forms on the base of the big toe. Tight shoes or heredity can be the cause of it. If it’s getting swollen and larger, it’s advisable to wear comfortable shoes and apply ice to reduce swelling. In some cases, surgery may be necessary if it’s very painful.
