Why does my heel hurt with elevated uric acid?

I am 50 year old female. I have pain in my heel since last 3 months. After visiting a orthopaedic doctor, I found out that my uric acid was slightly over the limit. Doc said it’s elevated because of consumption of whey protein(for very short duration I had). I consumed prescribed medications for few weeks but could not continue with the course as it was very heavy medication. The heel pains when I get up to walk and takes a few minutes for it to subside. Please advise

You might be suffering from plantar fasciitis, a situation where the tissue that links your heel to your toes gets inflamed. In some situations, high uric acid levels may be a contributing factor to such pain. The discomfort is worse in the morning when you start walking out of bed. Stretch your calf and foot muscles and wear shoes that provide proper support. In addition, users can also use ice packs and over-the-counter pain relievers as possible remedies. However, if the pain still does not go away, it is best to go back to an orthopedist for an updated diagnosis.

Acupuncture offers relief from chronic heel spurs and has proven record in treating calcaneal spur.
Extra bone tissue known as heel spurs which develop due to over stress of the foot can cause pain in back of heel.

I fell on my wrist 6 months ago and still have pain when I put pressure on it and after physical activity, the pain is located on the pinky side of the hand and there is a clicking noise when I twist my wrist.

Considering your symptoms, you may have a wrist sprain or ligament injury. It is recommended to see an Orthopedic doctor in order to get a correct diagnosis and treatment. The specialist will conduct a physical examination and may suggest imaging tests to establish the severity of injury. Procrastination in treatment can cause chronic problems.

I would tell you to see an orthopedic specialist in Pakistan so that your bent feet can be examined and the most appropriate treatment administered for them. They will show you which alternative – plaster or surgery – would work in your case and aid recovery.

Loss of lumber lordosis Fatty changes in l4 l5 vertibrate

Female | 61

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.
