Knees Cracking: Causes and Solutions
Hi my knees keep cracking all the time when I move them
Orthopaedic Surgery
Answered on 31st July '24
Knees cracking when you move them is usually due to the movement of gas bubbles in the joint fluid or the rubbing of soft tissues over bones. If there's no pain or swelling, it's generally harmless. However, if you're experiencing discomfort, it's best to consult an orthopedic doctor to rule out any underlying issues.

Sir I have muscle strain in my calf ,so doctor told me to do sonography, In sonography partial muscle tore have been found so what should I do
Male | 26
It sounds like you have a muscle tear in your calf muscle. This can happen if you overdo it on your muscles or damage them. You may experience symptoms like pain, swelling, and difficulty in leg movement. It is necessary to let your leg rest, apply ice and elevate it to speed up healing. Gentle stretching and physical therapy can also be effective healing methods. Stick to your doctor's recommendations and you are sure to make a complete recovery.

I have broken a bone in my hand which was hit a month ago, but even after a month, the bone is not joint. There is also a plaster bandage on the hand.
Male | 27
It may take longer for the bone to heal if it has not done so after four weeks. Factors such as blood supply or movement at the site of the fracture can cause this. While you should keep the plaster cast on and avoid using the hand too much, it would also be best to visit an orthopedist again so that they can offer further advice on how to care for and ensure proper healing of the bone.

I am 16 years old and my left knee joint is paining from yesterday night and I haved X ray the joint can you check my x ray and tell me what is the problem
Male | 16
The knee joint has a little swelling. This swelling could happen due to an injury, for instance, a sprain or strain, or perhaps an overuse. The pain you are suffering from is the common symptom of this inflammation. To aid your condition, I suggest you rest your knee, apply ice, and do easy workouts to develop the muscles around your knee. If the pain remains, you may have to visit an orthopedist to make sure everything is fine.

Pain in buttock continuously, like irritation, sometime when I sit suddenly pain starts and also pain in poo.
Male | 19
You might be encountering something known as sciatica. The sciatic nerve becomes compressed and causes pain from your lower back down through your buttocks into one or both legs. Sometimes sitting for too long or sudden movements can trigger this. You can try doing some gentle stretches, not sitting down all day, and using heat packs on the area that hurts. If nothing changes after doing these things then it would be best to go see an orthopedic.

I am 82 year old female who was hit in the right shoulder by a waitres in the dining room where I live. The shoulder is dislocated and the current doctor I saw said the ball is small so it will keep coming out so he did nothing except order some physical therapy to help strengthen muscles in the area. My arm is losing strength and I I am having trouble even getting dressed using that arm. Who can I see to get a second opinion as to what to do to solve this problem.
Female | 82
Your dislocated shoulder seems challenging, and arm struggles are tough. Since your current doctor didn't help enough, seek an orthopedic specialist's expertise. They specialize in assessing shoulder issues and recommending treatments. The right treatment can improve strength and relieve pain.

I hurt my big toe at football practice, it hurts and is bent a bit inwards like a little tilt, please help me
Male | 18
A sprained big toe might cause it to bend a bit and make it painful. Swelling up, making walking difficult too. This often happens from twisting or hitting the toe hard. Ice, rest, elevation, and pain meds may help ease things. But if it doesn't get better, see an orthopedist.

Sir, my uric acid was high and pain in my leg joint after taking medicine febuxostat 80 mg it comes normal 5.5 but still I have pain in my joint, I am taking zero dol pain killer also. So pls guide
Male | 35
It’s possible that the high uric acid caused damage to your joint before going down. This can lead to lingering pain. You are doing well by taking a febuxostat and a painkiller. Rest the joint, apply ice, and try gentle exercises to strengthen the area. If the pain continues, see an orthopedist for further advice.

I am a 22 year old male, believe to have scoliosis but the pain keeps getting worst, It traveled up to my neck where if I bend my neck sometimes unexpected I will feel a serious pinch and when I breathe I am getting pain in my back also have me very uncomfortable please help me
Male | 22
Scoliosis is a condition that causes the spine to bend sideways. As a result, the nerves may be compressed, and in some cases, the pain may be ejected. The main symptoms include pain, which may also move to the neck area. The best solution is to consult a spine specialist who can offer exercises or other treatments to assist your pain and discomfort.

I had an accident on November 27 2022, A cut near my right hand wrist and later I had stitches on it now my last two fingers are not working properly
Male | 22
Consult an orthopedist soon if you're experiencing reduced function in your fingers after a wrist injury and stitches. The cause of your symptoms may be nerve damage or reduced blood flow to the affected area, which results from certain types of injuries or surgical procedures.

How to cope up sciatica ,that have been facing 3 months?
Male | 34
Did you consult with neurologist or orthopedist? If not then please do that. They can diagnose the underlying cause of the sciatica and provide appropriate treatment. Some self-care measures such as taking over-the-counter pain relievers, gentle stretching, and hot/cold compresses may also help to get rid of the symptoms. However, these measures should only be used under the guidance of a doctor.

Since past 2 days suffering through left leg pain with severe hip pain that's also in left side
Female | 17
Your left leg and hip may be bothering you. Pain in both of those places could be caused by something such as sciatica, which is a nerve problem. Another reason might be muscle strain or arthritis. You should rest the area that hurts, put some ice on it, and if it’s bearable, gently stretch. If this doesn’t help, you should see an orthopedist.

A fracture is a small crack in the bone. You may experience pain, swelling, and difficulty walking on that leg. Fractures result from accidents or falls. To help, rest your leg, ice it to reduce swelling, and use crutches if needed. Get advice from an orthopedist for further care and healing.

Take your mother to a doctor or Ayurvedic practitioner, before starting any new medication or supplement like Sandhi Mitra Vati. This is particularly crucial for patients with pre existing conditions, like diabetes, and considering potential interactions or contraindications.

For over a year now I have had something that sicks out at the bottom of my ribcage on the left. It fells like the end of a rib sticking out and hurts when being pushed on. I did lose quite a lot of weight a year and a half ago and it's ever since then that I have noticed it. It is visibly sticking out when I am just standing normally.
Female | 20
You might have costochondritis. This is when the cartilage in your ribs gets inflamed, which usually causes pain and tenderness. It may be related to weight loss and sometimes comes on after an illness. To help relieve the pain, you can do some gentle stretching, use heat packs, or take over-the-counter painkillers such as ibuprofen.
