Managing Chronic Pain with Bertalotti's Syndrome in Teen Female
I am a 17 year old female with a diagnosis of bertalottis syndrome which I take co-codamol 8/500 and an anti inflammatory for. For about 2 years I've been experiencing chronic pain in my wrists, knees, ankles and elbows. The pain is usually about a 3/4 usually and its an achey/strong pain but it often gets more intense like a flare up where it can go from a 6-10 where I am unable to move the affected body part.

You may face issues linked to Bertolotti's syndrome. Dealing with ongoing pain in various joints is not unusual with this condition. The achy, intense ache you describe, coupled with flare-ups, is a frequent symptom. Collaborating closely with an orthopedist to investigate diverse treatment choices that could enhance symptom management remains crucial. Exercising and physical therapy may prove advantageous too.

What causes muscle pain in my arms, thighs, legs and fingers that comes and goes and the pain becomes worse while resting, scouting, stretching, walk and in the morning when I wake up
Female | 25
Muscle pain can strike occasionally, worsening with rest, movement, or stretching. Morning stiffness signals inflammation. Excessive activity without proper rest is the usual culprit. To find relief, allow muscles to recover, gently stretch, and apply ice or heat therapy. However, if discomfort persists, consulting an orthopedist becomes necessary for further evaluation.

I am 15 years old and have had a knee injury for 11 months . It started out as a meniscus injury and that has gotten better. According to my most recent MRI, I have edema , synovitis, and slight injuries to my ligaments. It doesn’t sound severe, but I have difficulty walking normally, and it often cracks, which makes it deteriorate. Also, because of the long duration，my muscles have muscle atrophy. My question is: What do the cracks mean(are they fine or not), and what should I do to recover? Thanks.
Male | 15
Crackling from your knee is fostered by harsh surfaces or air bubbles. Although it’s perfectly normal at times, it could signify a problem if pain or swelling accompanies the snaps. For recovery, gentle exercises along with physical therapy will not only strengthen supporting muscles, leading to better knee stability. Be cautious while moving be sure to stay away from activities that may exacerbate this popping sound. You can also visit an orthopedist.

Hi Ian 23 and back pain on my left side
Male | 23
Back pain can occur for several reasons like muscle strain from improper posture or lifting heavy things wrong. Other times it can be a symptom of a more serious problem. Try using hot or cold packs on the area, gentle stretching, and taking it easy for a bit first. If the pain persists or gets worse, it's wise to get it checked by an orthopedist to find out what's the matter.

L4&L5 spine operation totally amount
Female | 58
You are referring to an operation on the L4 and L5 spine. These two areas are a part of your lower back. Sometimes people might need an operation there if they have severe back pain, weakness in the legs, or numbness. This is usually the cause of the herniated disc which presses on the nerves in the spine. The operation can help relieve the pressure on the nerves and thus, reduce the pain and other symptoms. It's good to discuss with a spine surgeon if this operation is the right choice for you.

I have severe pain from in my lower back down to both legs. I feel weak and find it difficult to walk..
Male | 24
You might suffer from a disease called sciatica. Sciatica is a condition that arises when something is pressing on the nerves that extend from the lower back to both legs. As a result, severe pain, numbness, and walking difficulties are the possible consequences. It is most often associated with a herniated disc in the spine. Routine physical activities, stretching, and pain relief medications can assist. Besides pointing out the specific exercises that would help you relieve pressure on the nerves, you should also seek out an orthopedist.

Female | 18
I'm sorry to hear about your pain. Slip disc can cause severe discomfort, and painkillers only provide temporary relief. It's important to consult an orthopedic doctor or a spine specialist for a thorough evaluation and proper treatment plan. They can guide you on exercises, lifestyle changes, or other therapies to manage your condition effectively.

Hi I'm Kay. My boyfriend diagnose with rheumatoid arthritis. he takes steroids since 4 years. Please suggest a diet plan for him. Could you please suggest me it can be affect a marriage life
Male | 32
Joint pain, swelling, and stiffness are some of the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. Steroids can be used to reduce inflammation in the affected areas. In the case of a healthy diet, one should eat more fruits and vegetables which contain vitamins that help fight diseases. Additionally, an individual can consume whole grains such as brown rice or oatmeal since they have fiber for easy digestion. Foods with high protein content like fish or beans should also not be left out. To promote general body wellness, patients should avoid taking processed sugars and other similar products. By so doing they will be able to manage most signs related to this condition.

It is difficult to estimate the cost without knowing the severity of your injury and the treatment required. You can also visit hospitals that provide stem cell therapy and discuss your options with the specialists and getting a detailed cost breakdown, insurance coverage before proceeding with any treatment.

My father is diabetic and takes insulin every day. For the past few months, he has been unable to walk for more than a few minutes. He has no problem standing for long while traveling in buses or walking up and down stairs. He has no knee pain but feels cramps in his calf muscles whenever he starts walking for more than 2 minutes. Around 3 years ago, he also lost a lot of weight and has never gained it back. He is 5.7ft and weighs less than 50 kgs. Is an orthopedic the right specialist to visit for treatment? What could be the causes behind his symptoms and how can they be treated? Does he need physiotherapy?
Male | 57
Your dad's walking problems and leg pains could signal restricted blood flow. This condition, peripheral artery disease, makes walking hard. Your dad losing weight and unable to walk well is worrying. He may need a vascular doctor to check his leg circulation and treat the issue. Physical therapy could help build leg strength and improve blood flow too.

I am 21 years old. I have been having a sharp pain in my left shoulder blade for up to four months now
Male | 21
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.

wrist pain alternating between both wrists, lower back pain, knee pains resembling bruising above the knees and sometimes bruise like pain in the thighs and sharp hip pain all the way to the foot (like a pulled string feeling) - most are often after overuse (phone, walking, sleeping wrong). They don’t always happen at once but sometimes all together. Other discomforts involve stabbing pain inside the foot from under when walking for too long, finger joint pains usually worse the second day after overuse and shoulder and elbow pains after sleeping slightly wrong or overuse. Occasional Tingling/numbness in fingers (I can’t feel my fingers for a few seconds sometimes) and most often stiffness in finger joints occur in the mornings. Occasionally, affected areas exhibit slight redness and warmth. Recently I’ve found that stretching the pained areas helps a lot. General tiredness persists. These symptoms have persisted for nearly a year, fluctuating in severity. There haven't been any major accidents. Tests * anti ds dna is negative * HLA-B27 is negative * Ana is positive — * RF factor negative. * Knee X-Ray shows some cartilage thinning * MRI done: report says Signal loss due to degeneration was observed in the L4-5 disc * vitamin d3 at 28
Female | 24
Your body experiences a variety of aches in areas like your wrists, lower back, knees, thighs, hips, feet, fingers, shoulders, and elbows. You may also feel tingling sensations and stiffness. ANA results suggest possible autoimmune issues and low vitamin D levels contribute to bone and muscle pain. An MRI has shown spine degeneration, likely causing some of your symptoms. It's essential to consult a orthopedist to address these concerns.

The injury resulted in pain in shoulders for 3 days and a lower soilder for days until I watched a video on YT how to stretch to fix it.......how ever it was gone and now Im left with uneven collar bones at the chest due to which the mobility is different in both hands.
