Why Is My Left Shoulder Blade Painful for Months?
I am 21 years old. I have been having a sharp pain in my left shoulder blade for up to four months now
Joint Replacement Surgeon
Answered on 23rd May '24
You may have a muscle strain in your left shoulder blade. This happens when you use that muscle a lot or have poor posture. You may feel sharp pain, especially when moving your arm. Try gently stretching and putting ice on the area. Do not do things that make the pain worse. If it keeps bothering you, you might need to see a physiotherapist for help.

I have a twitch in my middle finger. Right hand.
Female | 27
Finger twitches usually aren't serious issues. They often occur due to fatigue, anxiety, consuming too much caffeine, or lack of sleep. The right middle finger's twitch is annoying but typically harmless. Consider getting more rest, relaxing, reducing coffee intake, and sleeping enough hours. However, if this persists beyond a week, consulting an orthopedic specialist might be advisable.

I am 19 years old , female . I have TMJ problem... I don't have pain till now .. but I just have a clicking sound when I try to open my mouth widely . Will this be curable without surgery?
Female | 19
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 am a 17-year-old female. I was recovering quite well from a mild knee ligament stretch from over 2 or 3 months ago. It was not fully recovered, though. Yesterday, I had an awkward fall and twisted my knee. It hurt, but after a couple of minutes, I was able to walk relatively normally. There is pain on the sides of thd knee when I fully straighten my knee or tighten it fully. I can still walk and climb stairs. Currently, I am elevating my knee above hip level. How much and how long should I limit my activities? What should I do? Will my injury heal wrongly? Will my cartilage come back fully?
Female | 17
Pain on the outer side of the knee when straightening or fully extending it could mean a sprain. Be sure to rest your knee, apply ice for 15-20 minutes several times a day, and keep it up above your hip level. Stay away from activities that make the pain worse. If it doesn’t get any better, make sure you get it checked out by an orthopedist so that it can heal properly and there won’t be any long-term issues.

Carpal tunnel syndrome can also be brought on by a pregnant woman's palms and fingers. The nerve in the wrist is squashed, which is how carpal tunnel syndrome occurs. The high volume of swelling is a common cause of carpal tunnel syndrome in pregnancy. To treat the problem, you can hold your hand above your head, do hand exercises, or even consider wearing the splint while walking at night. It gets worse, visit an orthopedist.

what if i am a 62 years of woman having a inner hody pain near my chest because i got kicked there by someone's leg and If i do any work i am having a bad pain
Female | 62
The reason you are hurting can be a bruise or it can be a rib fracture as well. Common symptoms are stabbing pain, tenderness, and dyspnea when you breathe deeply. To relieve the pain, rest, make up the ice pack, and take pain relievers like acetaminophen. If the pain worsens or doesn't go away, it's best to consult a cardiologist. In the meantime, you should not do high-impact activities that you know will aggravate the pain.

Is robotic surgery an option for knee replacement? What is the accuracy or success rate in this surgery?
Robotic knee replacement surgery can be done for a patient whoever is a good candidate for traditional knee replacement surgery. Robot-assisted knee replacement surgery may potentially reduce recovery time of a patient post surgery. But more research is needed to determine if robot-assisted knee replacement surgery is more effective for total knee replacement. Consult orthopedists. Hope our answer helps you.

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.

Female | 19
Your shoulder pain is quite troubling. Weakness in your arm may indicate nerve or muscle problems. Pulling your arm could worsen the issue. Consulting another doctor like a neurologist is crucial. They'll diagnose the condition precisely. After that, treatments like physical therapy may help alleviate your symptoms.

Last week I fell and hit my knee. It is bruised and swollen. There are no breaks or cracks in the area. Today the bruise on my knee is starting to fade but the swelling is hard. Her legs can walk as usual, but sometimes it hurts, she can't straighten and feel pressured in the swollen part. Because the swelling is hot and hard. Kdng2 is tired and throbbing. When she wants to straighten her legs, she will crack her knees and feel heavy. When I sit down he is depressed in his knees. Is it dangerous or is it normal to get hit?
Female | 20
If you are experiencing a hematoma, where blood pools and forms a lump underneath the skin. The swelling, hardness, and discomfort are general signs. It is common to sense these sensations while your body is healing. An ice pack, leg elevation, and painkillers can be used to provide relief. If the pain increases or if there is difficulty moving the knee, an orthopedist should be consulted for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Please I have severe pain in my lower back down to both of my legs
Male | 24
You might be suffering from sciatica, a condition where pain starts in your lower back and goes down to your legs. This happens because a nerve in your back is under pressure. The pain can be shooting, sharp, or constant. To relieve the pain, it is important to rest, use heat or ice packs, and do gentle stretches. If the pain persists, it's best to see an orthopedist for further tests and treatment options.

You have a condition where the lower part of your spine is losing its normal curve called lumbar lordosis. This can occur due to the L4 and L5 bones being too fat. Symptoms may be back pain or stiffness. To boost this, you can do exercises that strengthen your back and abdomen muscles.

I'm an 18 year old female, has an old unattended back injury from 10 years ago hurts from time to time recently has been feeling some chest pains and difficulty in breathing what could it be?
Female | 18
Judging from the information that you have given, your past back injury and these new symptoms could be linked. Often old injuries can be a cause of problems later. The chest pain and breathing problems may indeed be caused by your spine affecting the nerves and muscles in that part of your body. An orthopedist needs to check everything to make sure you are ok and that you feel better.

From Last one month onwards pain at forearm
Female | 32
For a month, your forearm hurt. This is likely from doing too many motions. Using muscles too much, like repeating movements. Or maybe straining your arm. It's possible you had an injury or inflammation. Rest your arm. Put ice on it. Take pain medication. But if it doesn't stop hurting, see an orthopedist. They can find out why and give treatment to make it better.
