Answered on 21st Aug '24
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, can produce clicking sounds when you open your mouth. Nervous habits such as teeth grinding, stress or jaw misalignment may contribute to this. Many cases can be treated without surgery. Simple exercises for the jaw, hot/cold packs, and elderly eating are some of the treatments that might result in improvement. If your symptoms continue to worsen, you should get in contact with an orthopedist.

I had a sharp pain when I woke up and I want to know if I should go into the office for it
Female | 23
Waking with discomfort can seem worrisome, yet common causes exist. It might've been from an awkward sleeping position or strained muscles. Try gentle stretching exercises or a warm shower for relief. However, if pain persists or intensifies, then seeking medical attention from an orthopedist would be prudent.

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.

पैर पर खीचना महसूस होना तथा सुन होना महसूस जैसा लगना
Male | 24
Experiencing a sensation of 'pulling' in your leg is like your nerves telling you something is wrong. This could be due to nerve damage or excessive strain. Identifying any damage or muscle stretching that might be causing these sensations is important. Take a break, use ice for swelling, and gently stretch the area. If there's no improvement, consult an orthopedist for a closer examination.

I’m 50 yrs old and have been suffering with planters fasciitis for years. It started after working at Home Depot. I seen an orthopedic back in 2002 ish, got an injection and was fine. I then left HD and came back yrs later. Now it’s back and I believe I’m also dealing with Achilles tendonitis. My mother who drove a bus for 30 yrs has also dealt with this for a very long time. She can barely walk and I’ve started limping. I don’t want this to slow me down but the doctors here in Wichita Falls are not much help and my mother hasn’t been able to get any relief in California or now in Arizona. My question is is there anything we can do. I have 6 kids, 3 of which are still in school. I can’t just slow down. And I hate seeing how miserably mother is. We are both taking Duloxitine, which helps sometimes. Besides surgery is there anything we can do?
Female | 50
Plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis can be quite bothersome, but there are several ways to ease the pain. Try stretching exercises for your calves and feet, wear supportive shoes, use orthotic inserts, apply ice to reduce inflammation, and take over-the-counter pain relievers. It's also important to avoid activities that make the pain worse.

Female | 30
It sounds like you're experiencing severe pain in both your neck and back. The MRI results indicate that some discs in your spine are pressing on your nerves, causing this ongoing pain. This could be due to the gradual wear and tear of the discs over time. See an orthopedist to discuss treatment options and help manage your pain effectively. It's important to follow your doctor's advice closely to aid in your recovery process.

Painful thumb nail of leg pak thay evo
Female | 21
You might be having an ingrown toenail. This is when the toenail no longer grows on the skin but rather grows inside it. It can bring on further irritation, discoloration, and the build-up of bodily fluids. Tight shoes, or, on the other hand, improper nail clipping, are two principal causes of this situation. To get relief, you can soak your foot in some warm water and gently try to lift your nail. In cases of intense pain, visit an orthopedist for treatment.

If your belly feels upset after taking medicine for leg pain, that's normal. Nausea and tiredness can occur due to certain drugs. When you consume lunch and feel ill, your body reacts to the medication. Ensure hydrating well and eating smaller, lighter meals until you feel better.

Due to a car accident a while back, I've been wearing diapers for an extended period because of my mobility issues. I don't currently have incontinence issues, but my reliance on diapers has made me wonder about the long-term effects. My primary concern is whether this extended use of diapers, even without incontinence, might eventually lead to total incontinence. I would greatly appreciate your insights or any information you can provide on this matter.

You've got the symptoms of a ganglion cyst. These are small liquid-filled bumps that can evolve near your tibia. Typically this doesn't hurt but sometimes it can be uncomfortable or give a feeling of being under pressure. They oftentimes disappear on their own, however, if you are hurt by it you can attempt to apply ice and rest on your leg. It is important to see an orthopedist to examine it, in case it doesn't improve.
