I have tfcc injury about a 1 month which medicine is taken to treat this
Male | 23
Seeing an orthopedist and getting a full diagnosis and a treatment plan is the first thing I would advise you to do for the TFCC injury. The specialist would probably issue a script for painkillers, immobilization, and/or physiotherapy and surgery only if the damage is severe.

I'm a 42 year old male diagnosed with undescended testes and now my joints and back are painful I've tried medication but pain is not going anywhere. Other symptoms 1.No facial hair 2. Male breast 3. Difficulty in Concentration
Male | 42
Based on your symptoms it seems that you might have a Klinefelter syndrome which can lead to undescended testes and joint pain. Executed in males who have an extra X chromosome. The inability to grow facial hair, the development of male breasts, and the trouble to concentrate are also other frequent conditions. So, it's crucial to consult an endocrinologist for the correct diagnosis and treatment which may include hormone therapy and pain management strategies for this condition.

I have a sudden and severe continuous back pain that goes to the stomach, it started 3 days ago and painkillers don't work
Female | 36
Back pain radiating to your stomach could indicate a kidney infection or stone. Fever, sickness, and persistent discomfort unrelieved by medication often accompany these conditions. Prompt medical evaluation is crucial for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, such as antibiotics or procedures to remove kidney stones, if present. Seeking timely care from an orthopedist is essential.

I've been having knee pains for a few years but never very bad. Last year, I hyperextended my knee and ever since I'll have someday where I almost don't feel any pain, and other days where I feel like it's ready to just give out. Is there any advice on what this could be or how I could treat it?
Male | 15
Persistent knee pain along with hyperextension injury should be evaluated by a healthcare professional. It could be due to ligamentous injury, meniscal tear, or patellofemoral pain syndrome. Some rest and pain medications can provide temporary relief.

Why is it paining near left palmar fascia
Female | 20
If your left palm hurts, it could be due to overuse, like gripping too hard. This can irritate or injure the tissue in your palm. Rest your hand, apply ice, and do gentle stretches. If the pain doesn't go away, it's best to see an orthopedist for further help.

I am dealing with pain, soreness, and stiffness in both my knees mostly in the inside portion after wearing orthotics for a week. I do not have swelling and I think I have full stability. Could I have caused structural damage? Or do I just need a few days of rest now that I removed the orthotics?
Male | 25
Orthotics can affect your knees. Pain, soreness, or stiffness inside your knees without swelling might indicate that orthotics are altering knee movement. It’s unlikely to cause structural damage, but giving your knees a rest can help. If pain persists, consult an orthopedist.

I’m 56 year old lady. I have pain in left hand since last 2 months. My Vitamin D recent one week ago test shows value 23.84 Is it due to Vitamin D deficiency? Please guide.
Female | 56
Your left hand pain could be linked to a Vitamin D deficiency, as doctors suggest. Common symptoms of this deficiency include body pain, muscle weakness, and bone pain. Vitamin D helps keep our bones strong, and when we don’t have enough, we can feel pain in our muscles and bones. To boost your Vitamin D levels, spend some time in sunlight or take a Vitamin D supplement as advised by your doctor.

I have my left leg Knee is swelling from last 3 days
Male | 56
The knee usually gets swollen as a result of different causes. It may be because of an acute trauma, arthritis, or an infection. On some occasions, also any stiffness in the knee will become more evident if she overexercises. You can use intermittent leg elevation, ice application, and rest to bring down the swelling. However, if the swelling lasts or grows severe, you should have it checked by an orthopedist.

I have a ganglion cyst on my wrist I'm suppose to have surgery on in the morning, the cyst disappeared 3 days ago. Should I still have the surgery or will they do the surgery still
Male | 37
Your ganglion cysts aren't often painful, though sometimes annoying or movement-limiting. Since yours vanished naturally, surgery might not be required anymore. However, inform your doctor about this development so they can reassess if the operation is still necessary or not.

But I have concern about the wounds of my leg mainly i got 4 wounds in my leg one on elbow and left three on my feet those three are like a hole but they got tissues their but the wounds are still their. I know it gonna take time but everytime i or my nurse change the dressing it got bleed bec when i have to walk all wounds of my leg start bleeding maybe stretch of tissues i don't use that leg to walk. But even it bleed. I don't know what's to do. It's like whenever i do dressing the wound get damaged and bleed because the bandage gets to stick to it because of blood. I use megaheal or betadine for dressing but mostly bettadin because after doing dressing with megaheal it hey pus ( little bit ) in the wound it happens to wound on elbow and feet please tell how can I solve this. And lil bit sorry for the bad explanation. And thanks
Male | 17
The redness, bleeding, and pus are signs that your wounds might be infected. It's important to keep the wounds clean and dry. Use Betadine for dressing, as it helps prevent infection. Avoid putting too much pressure on your leg wounds to reduce bleeding. Your wounds will heal with time.

I am 25 year old male. I was playing soccer and I had a fairly significant leg on leg contact on my shin, it shows lots of bruising but that feels expected. What is unexpected is that my ankle/foot has intense bruising that is a deep purple and fairly large. It is tender to touch but I feel no pain otherwise on my ankle. What could this be?
Male | 25
You might have something called compartment syndrome. This occurs when the pressure within the muscles of your leg increases leading to swelling and pain. There could be intense bruising around your ankle can be an indication of this. It is vital to have it checked by an orthopedist immediately so as not to have any further complications.

Female | 70
- Older individuals are more prone to falls and fractures. The incidence of ankle fractures in older patients is high and severe in some cases. The treatment is difficult and complicated in nature due to presence of comorbidities such as diabetes, obesity, hypertension and poor bone quality.
- Treatment goals include: Stability of the joint, ability of the patient to perform daily activities independently and minimizing complications associated with fracture and other comorbid conditions.
RICE is a part of the Non-operative management of ankle fracture in older patients which includes:
R: The importance of rest cannot be overstated. In order for the fracture to heal faster limit yourself from further pressure on the foot.
A cast will most likely be worn to keep the foot and ankle immobile. In case of severe soft tissue swelling, a cast may be required for the first three to five days. The brace must be worn for six weeks in order to allow the fracture to heal. Cast fixation with off-loading is advised for poor bone quality depending on the radiography report.
Ice: For reducing the swelling and inflammation, apply ice to the region for 20 minutes at a time.
And continue further for every 40 minutes.
Compression: Wrapping the area in a bandage helps to reduce swelling.
Elevation: To assist reduce inflammation, lift your foot and ankle slightly above the level of your heart.
