How to Reduce Hip Pain in Elderly with Multiple Conditions?

Dear Sir/Madam,I live in Iran.My mother has fallen to the ground, and hurt her hip. Her pain has reduced a lot since more than 2 weeks ago (January 27th), but she still feels pain. She says it's about 8% of the pain she felt 2 weeks ago. What can we do to reduce her pain? She refuses to go to the doctors.She is 70 years old, has severe osteoporosis, blood pressure, mild cardiac arrhythmia, and acid reflux. Famotidine, Amlodipine, Bisoprolol, Chlorediazepoxide. She used to have Calcium supplements. Never had any treatments for Osteoporosis, not that I remember.

Given her age and existing health conditions, it's important to address her hip discomfort carefully. Encourage gentle movement or physical therapy exercises tailored for osteoporosis to enhance mobility and strength. Additionally, applying heat or cold packs may provide relief. Since she has not received specific treatment for osteoporosis, consider discussing calcium and vitamin D supplements with her if she hasn't been taking them regularly. While I understand her reluctance, an orthopedist can offer targeted advice and ensure there are no serious underlying issues.

How can i prevent degenerative disc disease from getting worse

Prevention of worsening of degenerative disc disease is by decreasing the stress on the degenerated discs. Weight loss and avoidance of weight lifting and high impact activities decrease the stress and pain.

I don't have any disease, I also did blood test but nothing wrong in the report but I have very little swelling in my left ankle which goes away in the morning or when I rest but comes back and also when I press my legs mid upper bone it makes a small dent ,I think it's fluid retention or high salt intake or due to heat or long sitting and standing, please suggest me because I am having anxiety due to this.

Female | 27

It's good to hear that your blood tests are normal, but the swelling in your ankle and the dent in your leg might still need attention. This could be due to fluid retention, high salt intake, or prolonged sitting and standing. I recommend visiting a general physician or a vascular specialist to rule out any underlying conditions. It's important to address your anxiety as well, and they can guide both.

I am 34 years old,myself and my partner was kn a car crash last year march. We have physio (thunk it was 8 or 10 sessions) I had stiffness in my neck but after the physio it was fine. Last month my left arm from my shoulder to my elbow really hurts,I struggle to lift my left arm up and sometimes I have to use my right arm to move my left arm as its really painful.

Female | 34

You may have adhesive capsulitis, which is also referred to as a frozen shoulder. This usually occurs after an injury in the shoulder has taken place such as a car accident for example. Pain and stiffness are common symptoms of this condition thereby making it difficult for one to move the affected arm or arms. To alleviate these signs try gentle stretching exercises coupled with warm compresses applied to the painful area.

Wrist movement after tendon cut joining

Male | 27

Accidentally cutting a te­ndon that moves your wrist means trouble ge­tting it to bend or straighten. An injury or surgery could cause­ this. The symptoms? Difficulty bending or making your wrist flat. To fix it, surgery re­connects the tendon e­nds. But after, physical therapy helps re­gain wrist movement.

I am 25year old female and have backache for last 2 months. Numbness in hands ,right feet pain and right stomach pain for last 3days. Which problem? How relipef the pain.

Female | 5

It’s important to understand that your symptoms, including back pain, numbness, and discomfort in your feet and abdomen, could be related to various conditions, such as nerve irritation or muscular issues. Relief may often be found through gentle stretching, applying heat, or over-the-counter pain relievers. However, considering the duration and combination of your symptoms, I strongly recommend scheduling an appointment with a healthcare professional. They can provide a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment plan, ensuring you receive the most appropriate care for your situation. Take care, and seeking professional advice is a smart step towards relief.

What to expect 5 months after knee replacement?

Male | 45

At 5 months after knee replacement surgery, patients can expect to have significantly reduced pain and improved mobility compared to the pre-surgical state. However, complete recovery may take up to a year or more. Regular physical therapy, exercises, and follow-up appointments with the doctor are necessary to ensure the best possible outcomes.

Hi my Name is Neo am 22 years I have a problem Saturday night I got a knocked on a car door Sunday I experienced pains on my penis now it’s swollen nd it changed where am it’s bruised the skin is getting shinny.

Male | Neo

It seems like you might have hurt your penis while you got hit by the car door. Pain, swelling, and bruising are not unusual in this case. The glossy skin could be a sign of recovery. Make sure you get some rest, wear loose-fitting clothes, and use ice packs to bring down any swelling. If these symptoms get worse or do not improve it would be best to see a doctor as soon as possible.
