Is Borderline HLA B27 Test Result Serious?
Hi Ma'am, I am Deepanshu Chaudhary (Age 24 years). I have had pain in my hip since the past 2-3 months. It became minimum when I did physiotherapy sessions but it came back again. I consulted an orthopedic surgeon with an Xray and he suggested me to do an HLA B27 test which came out to be borderline positive. I am confused and worried about this test result. Also my next consultation with him is tomorrow which is why I am getting a bit anxious about my condition and the result. I wanted to know whether this a serious problem or not

I know you are worried about the HLA B27 test result which showed a borderline positive. This test is associated with diseases such as ankylosing spondylitis which can lead to hip pain. Some of the symptoms are painful and stiff hip areas. The remedy is a further check-up by an orthopedist to choose the best way.

Hi I am 33 years old weighing 75 kgs approx.I have 3 kids with natural delivery.Since 10 days I am having pain in my left knee which occurs only while bending or climbing up the stairs.I have no problem while standing or doing any heavy related work.Its only at bending time that the pain kicks in. I am healthy with no allergies,infections or any other ailment. I haven't been injured in my legs.I feel it's happening due to increase in my uric acid. Kindly advise on my course of action to alleviate the pain.
Female | 33
Your left knee hurts when you're bending over or climbing stairs. This kind of pain, which occurs only on bending, might be due to a condition called patellofemoral pain syndrome. It is likely to be triggered by activities such as climbing stairs. Increasing uric acid levels are not generally associated with knee pain. To help ease the pain, you can begin by taking it easy on your knee, applying ice packs, gently stretching, and taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. If the pain persists, it's best to seek advice from an orthopedist for further evaluation and treatment options.

Iam having severe pain above knee joint,from 5days .I can't walk properly, can't stand due to pain,why did it suddenly happened?,and iam having nervous weakness hand paining,thumb etc joints pain ,
Female | 20
The pain may be due to tendonitis, which is the inflammation of the tendons around the knee, and that might be causing the problem. On the other hand, hand and thumb joint pain might be a sign of osteoarthritis. Resting your knee, putting ice on the swelling area, and moving your hand slowly are the best home remedies for it. If nothing changes, you should consult an orthopedist.

Hello. Please I had a mid shaft humerus fracture in my left arm about two weeks ago. A cast was made on it, but I have been having shake feeling/ swing feeling in the fracture spot lately. I want to know if that feeling is normal and when the feeling stop. Thank you
Male | 20
If your arm is broken, it may feel wobbly or loose at the site of the fracture. This sensation occurs because the bones are mending themselves and trying to realign. Such feelings can last for several weeks. Ensure that you raise your arm above the level of your heart and refrain from putting any weight on it. In case this feeling doesn’t improve or becomes worse, let your orthopedist know.

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.

I got injured we were playing football and someone s foot on my foot so from night to no my foot is swelling continuously
Male | 20
A sprained foot might be the issue. When someone steps on your foot, the tissues get strained, causing swelling. Pain and difficulty moving your foot are common symptoms. To manage, resting, icing the area, and elevating your foot are helpful strategies. However, if swelling and pain persist, seeking medical evaluation from an orthopedist is crucial for proper assessment and treatment.

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.

You're suffering from pain deep inside your hip, particularly in the wintertime. Conditions like arthritis or bursitis could cause this. To properly diagnose, you should consult an orthopedist. Soft exercises like stretching and strengthening are effective in relieving hip pain.

Cervical injury, many doctors check but not relief
Male | 25
The cervical injury normally comes with pain in the neck region. The reasons behind this can be accidents, incorrect posture, or too much hard work. For relief, first, rest your neck, use ice packs, and take pain medication if your doctor prescribes it. However, ensuring you get a professional opinion is important if the pain does not go away.

Hi good evening my name is techekia I am 34 years old I've been unable to walk it's been 4 years now after I give birth to my daughter I can't raise is my hand I do anything for myself I have done many tests since still can't get any answer trying to seek medical attention everywhere but I'm not getting any and it's affecting me badly and getting worst I wish if I could get some help
Female | 34
The symptoms you have explained, such as the inability to walk and numbness of the hand following delivery, are indicative of obstetric brachial plexopathy. This is a condition that occurs when the nerves around your shoulder are injured during the birthing process. Physical therapy can enhance your muscle power and flexibility. Physical therapists can give the right evaluation and the measures that work for them. I recommend consulting a physical therapist for further advice.

I am trying to find the starting point to getting my knees replaced
Knee replacement surgery is done to replace the damaged joints so patient is relieved of symptoms. The knee joint with an artificial knee called prosthesis made of metal, plastic, and ceramic. It helps to restore function of the damaged knee and relieve arthritis pain. Knee replacement surgery is advised if the pain is interfering with your daily activities and negatively affecting your quality of life. Types of knee replacement surgery Simultaneous bilateral knee replacement - When both knees are replaced at the same time. The primary advantage of a procedure is that there is only one hospital stay and one rehabilitation period to heal both knees. But rehabilitation may be slower. Also these patients may need assistance at home also. Generalized fitness is important here. Staged bilateral knee replacement- Each knee is replaced at a different time. These surgeries are done a few months apart. This staged approach helps one knee to recover before the second surgery. The main advantage of a this procedure is the reduced risk of complications and also requires a shorter hospital stay. However, since this procedure requires two surgeries, the overall rehabilitation period can be longer. Either surgery may involve any combination of total knee replacement or partial knee replacement. The risks associated with this surgery: infection, blood clots, failure of the artificial joint, heart attack etc. Post surgery care, rehabilitation is very important. Hope our answer helps you.

A pinched nerve might cause your pain. Pressure on nerves from surrounding parts can cause this. Symptoms include hurt from neck down arm. You may feel discomfort elsewhere like leg or chest too. To feel better, rest, stretch gently, and maybe get physical therapy.

I'm afjal after 10 days my back pan my uric acid test report for 5.9
Male | 29
Back pain can happen for many reasons, like strained muscles or poor posture. A uric acid level of 5.9 might be high and could be due to gout, which occurs when crystals form in the joints. To lower uric acid, drink plenty of water and avoid red meat and alcohol, as they are high in purines. It's also important to maintain good posture, do gentle stretches, and avoid lifting heavy objects to protect your back. If the pain continues, seeing an orthopedist is the best way to get proper advice and treatment.

Hi there, Hope you’re doing well. I’m reaching out to ask about medial tibial stress syndrome/tibial stress fractures. I’ve been training for my 2nd marathon for the past few months and have experienced some shin pain along the inside of my left leg (dominate leg). It’s a low pain level that never exceeds 1-3 out of 10 on a pain level scale. My main issue is that it’s challenging to self diagnose this. Part of me sees a couple fracture symptoms - the pain is localized (not big like a typical shin splint), there is slight pain when I run up or down stairs, some discomfort when I jump multiple times on the one leg, and the pain fluctuates from day to day. And although the pain point is localized, it’s not quite as tender or painful as some examples I’ve read online (so maybe not a fracture?). My reasons why I think this could just be a shin splint are because the pain has not gotten worse over the past 3 weeks (while running), and the pain fades away most of the time when I’m running (sometimes I feel discomfort during the first mile or 2 but then it’s gone). I even ran a half marathon race with a personal best time just 5 days ago, and was not bothered by it during or after the race. I started noticing this issue about 3 weeks ago. I took a couple days off from running 2.5 weeks ago to address it. I didn’t think it was anything alarming, so I continued my training for 2 weeks - I run about 50 to 60 miles a week. I haven’t ran for 5 days this week because I began to get paranoid about this injury still lingering (last thing I want is to turn a shin splint into a fracture). It’s strange the injury hasn’t gotten worse, and like I said, the pain fluctuates from day to day, but never exceeds a 3 out of 10 on the pain level scale. I’m wondering if you have any recommendations and if it’s worth visiting a doctor in person soon. My ultimate goal is to still run my marathon the final weekend of April, but I’ll need at least 5 to 6 more weeks of training - therefore if my rest time exceeds 3 weeks, I probably can’t do the race. Obviously it’s not the end of the world if I have to sit out. Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you soon! Take care, Dominic

You might have medial tibial stress syndrome or tibial stress fractures, which occur when your shin bones experience repeated stress from activities like running. You may feel localized pain, discomfort when jumping, and varying levels of pain. Rest, apply ice to the area, and consider seeing an orthopedist for evaluation and advice.

I am 23 year old female having quadricep tendinitis from 3 months in both legs now my pain is moving knee to thighs and having extreme pain
Female | 23
You might be having a rough time with your quadricep tendinitis. The symptoms you're going through, like pain moving from your knees to your thighs, can be a challenge. This kind of injury can be caused by overusing your legs or not warming up properly before exercise. To help with this, try doing some gentle stretches and avoiding activities that worsen the pain. As well, applying ice packs and elevating your legs can provide some relief.
