We are extremely sorry for replying late, and since we don't know whether you got the required medical care and attention for your condition or not, therefore we will do our best to brief you on our analysis.
As you were operated for this condition before but it recurred, and also because you required an operation earlier to be able to cure it, therefore it's most likely a chronic type sciatica. If not, then otc medicines along with regular stretching exercises & walking must suffice.
For chronic type, you can get physical therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) – which helps people with pain management by training them to react differently towards pain, painkillers, and as a final resort, surgery.
Surgeries are as follows:
i.) Lumbar laminectomy: widening spinal cord present in the lower back to reduce pressure on nerves.
ii.) Discectomy: either partial or complete removal of a herniated disk.
A surgeon will do the cost benefit analysis of each treatment and suggest you the best possible option for your condition, so to get in touch with experts, you should refer our page, they could help with second opinions too - Best Orthopedic Doctor in India. Do update us on your condition and its progression, also, approach us whenever you feel like!

I'm a 21 year old who's been having back pains for a week which make it hard for me to sleep it's like they jus there and they hurt and my stomach usually takes me out to the toilet but sometimes nothing comes put
Male | 21
Back pain is often a result of muscle strain or bad posture. Stomach problems leading to trips to the toilet could be a stomach virus or having issues with the stomach. The well-being of your body is essential, so try easy movements, drink enough water, and eat nutritious food. If it doesn't improve, see an orthopedist for more assistance.

Since your uric acid levels are now normal but you're still experiencing pain and swelling, it's important to follow up with your orthopedic doctor. They might need to adjust their treatment or explore other possible causes.

What is the duration of pain inflicted after hip replacement surgery? Which medicines are prescribed to ease the pain?
Many patients have excellent pain control within 4 to 6 weeks following surgery. But the sensitivity of pain differs from patient to patient; hence the pain control duration may differ from patient to patient. There are many types of medication available to ease pain of a patient post surgery. But the selection of medication is a complex process, where many factors are considered before choosing a medication. Consult an orthopedic surgeon. Hope our answer helps you.

Lower back pain with morning stiffness of muscle pain was severe
Female | 32
These signs could mean arthritis or muscle strain. Avoid things that worsen this pain. Gentle stretches may help relax your body. Warm baths could also relieve muscle tension. Try taking over-the-counter pain meds if needed. But, speak to an orthopedist for the right diagnosis and treatment plan.

Male | 76
Generally, surgery is the first thing among older people with a broken hip that is used to help with healing and mobility. The operation may be the only way to heal the fracture by getting it back in the right place. It's crucial to have a conversation about the best treatment approach for you with an orthopedist.

I think I have a meniscus tear
Female | 13
Your problem might be a torn meniscus, which is a cushion inside the knee. It can tear from twisting, bending, or wear and tear. Symptoms include pain, swelling, popping sounds, and the knee locking. You can treat it with rest, ice packs, keeping your leg raised, and doing physical therapy exercises. Surgery may be needed for severe tears.

I have knee pain from the last two years. Doctors advised for knee replacement but i dont want to go for knee placement. Will physiotherapy will do. Pl advise.
Female | 64
Physiotherapy can ease knee pain but only if the condition is not too serious. You should see an orthopedic specialist who will be able to assess your knee and prescribe effective treatment. A physiotherapist can collaborate with the orthopedic specialist to provide integrated treatment.

my left leg middle finger is crack can i return my finger
Male | 21
Clefts might be the result of dehydration or trauma. It may cause a lot of pain, a scratchy feeling, or become reddish in color. If you don't have any moisturizer, you can use some mild one, and cover it with a bandage for a short-term remedy. Be diligent about hygiene and strive for a clean and protected environment. If it doesn't even progress, you could probably use an orthopedist who will help.

Female | 78
The X-ray report suggests that your mother has a right femoral neck fracture with osteoporosis of the bones. Furthermore, she has mild to moderate spondylotic changes in her lumber spine. Your mother should see an orthopedic specialist to assess and determine the treatment plan for her fracture/osteoporosis.

I'm 17 years old. My man. I had joint and muscle pain, especially in the neck, for a while. There is pain in the neck, elbow joints, arm muscles, wrist and fingers, and the bone between the elbow and hand. However, what is disturbing is the leg pain. It starts from the waist and hips and goes towards the feet. The most severe pain is the left upper leg, thigh and knee. I have pain in the calves of both my feet. Even my toes hurt. I have a burning and stinging sensation in my left upper leg. And worst of all, I have extreme weakness and fatigue. I can never open my eyes in the morning, I can't even wake up, I'm always tired. The pediatrician looked at it 1 month ago. At that time, there were no such severe symptoms, there was some joint pain and fatigue. He did a detailed blood test and nothing came up. Just this CRP 10 The doctor didn't say anything and we never went back. What diseases can it be a symptom of? Could it be a sign of leukemia? Someone said it. But my family thought I was exaggerating everything, so I didn't say anything to them again about going to the hospital. I just want to know your opinion What do you think it could be? I'm sorry for keeping you busy

Widespread muscle and joint aches with fatigue could mean fibromyalgia. It causes burning sensations too. Though leukemia seems scary, fibromyalgia fits these symptoms. But don't worry, an orthopedist can investigate the cause properly. They'll suggest suitable treatment options after examining you thoroughly.

Hi I’m nafisa 24 yrs old I have back pain at right side through the chest it’s light muscle stain when I try to move I’m feeling it I have last 4 days
Female | 24
You likely have a muscle strain on your back's right side. It's causing chest pain. Muscle strains happen when you move stressfully. You'll feel pain while moving. Rest up. Ice the area. Take over-the-counter pain meds if needed. Try gentle stretches. Avoid activities worsening the pain. If it doesn't improve or worsens, see an orthopedist

The usual thing that you should do when you get a cut or hurt is cleanse the same with soap and water. To protect from infection, you should put some antiseptic on the wound. Employ a bandage as a cover to keep it safe from germs. If it is a larger wound or the bleeding will not stop, you will probably need to consult an orthopedic specialist. To facilitate the quick healing process, hygiene has to be the top priority of the affected area.
