Could pain in left foot be DVT-related?

Hey! Little backstory of me. I had diagnosed DVT 4 months ago. So I am still using anticoagulants. DVT cause was covid and it started on left calf. Now, few days ago I woke up and suddenly felt pain in my left foot. To be precise, on the ball of foot. No swelling or color changes. And no jumping or running or long days on foot. Just a pain. I can’t stand and put pressure on this foot. But, if I try to walk a little, the pain gets milder. It won’t completely go away, but I can manage it. First question is, can I get blood clot on bottom of my foot? Secondly, I tried to research and got no real answers, so maybe you could take a guess. Age 29, weight 80kg.

Yes, getting a blood clot in the small vessels of your foot is something that can happen, but it is rare. The pain that you have may be nerve problems or strain. Be observant of it and if it does not go away or worsens, do not hesitate to contact an orthopedist for a check-up to be on the safe side.

Suffering from left groin pain from the past week.medications from family doctor did not work out immense pain lifting the leg & down to the ground.pls advice what can be the reason & what tests required for treatment

Female | 64

Groin pain can come from different sources like a muscle strain or hernia. To find out the right one, an orthopedist might recommend your tests like an ultrasound or MRI. These tests are to look through your body and find the exact problem. After the diagnosis is made, the doctor can recommend the right therapy, which may consist of physical therapy or surgery.

I have grinding in my right shoulder (dominant arm) along with accompanying pain at some times. Last year I was playing basketball and after a few weeks of playing some games I developed a pain in said shoulder. I let the pain fade on its own and discovered the grinding (like a bone on bone contact) in my shoulder. I would like to know if it could be serious and if at this point I could do anything about it. I am an athlete and have had tendinitis in my Achilles tendon (ankle) if that helps anything.

Shoulder pain can come­ from shoulder impingement. This me­ans shoulder tendons get pinche­d, resulting in grinding discomfort. Athletes face higher risk due­ to repeated arm motions. Tre­atment options include physical therapy e­xercises to strengthe­n shoulder muscles. Avoid activities worse­ning symptoms. Use ice packs to cut inflammation.

I am a 17-year-old female who is recovering from a mild knee ligament stretch. I had a splint for 2 weeks and had been recovering for over a month. Yesterday, I played badminton because my knee felt good. However, I had an awkward fall and twisted my knee. It hurt at first, but I can walk and climb stairs relatively normally. It hurts when I fully straighten my knee or tighten it. There is no buckling of the knee. The pain is a little achey and a little dull. I don't know which one exactly. What should I do? Is it okay if I resume normal activities, but just be more careful and elevate my leg when I sit or lie down?

Female | 17

You might have twisted your knee again while playing badminton. Aching dull pain when you try to straighten or tighten your knee could mean the ligament has been pulled too hard. It’s great that you can still walk and go upstairs. To let it get better, you should rest as much as possible, put your leg up from time to time, and avoid doing anything too hard for a while.

My left leg is paining a lot. Not even able to walk. Upper thighs, calf and ankle.

Male | 49

If the leg pain is so severe that affects walking then get it checked by an orthopedist as it could indicate a serious medical condition. Possible causes can be muscle strain, deep vein thrombosis, or nerve problems.

Hello i have been experiencing alot of pain on my left hand side for 1 year and 3 months time ....i have had an echo test but all results are good but then the pain perist i dont know why but think i strained my chest muscles because i cant hold heavy objects ..the inside parts of the chest twitches alot i need some asistance

Male | 17

For some time­ now, you've had pain on your left side. The­ echo test results se­em fine, so the pain may come­ from strained chest muscles. Twitching in the­ chest can occur with this condition. To ease the­ discomfort, rest your chest muscle, don't lift he­avy objects, use ice packs, and take­ ibuprofen or similar pain relieve­rs.

Can foot drop be treated without undergoing surgery?

Male | 44

Yes, Electro acupuncture has given great results in treating foot drop.
Foot drop is mobility impairment of an ankle, foot and toes which causes foot drop. It is usually caused by a stroke.
Acupuncture point along with electro stimulation, combined with Moxibustion ( passing heat) showed significant improvement in the condition of the patient.
Acupuncture helps in improving motor function in patients with foot drop. Some physical exercises ( at later stages) will be given which will also help in correcting the foot drop completely.

Hi, I'm 21 years old, female and since September 2021 i have muscle weakness. It only occurs when i'm moving. When i chew, or walk too fast or if i brush my hair, my muscles get tired very quickly. if i sit or lay down in a certain position, my upper body starts getting kind of muscle ache. My muscle weakness is on my hole body, started on my neck, on my legs, arms and my upper body. When i rest, it gets better. The first symptoms occurs 3 days after i had an intoxication with crabs eye plant seeds. I have talked to my physician about it, blood test, especially muscle enzymes were normal. He said nothing further about it. I'm pretty sure, the muscle weakness comes from the intoxication, but i'm not sure what should i do now.

Female | 21
