The pain in your upper back, especially at night and after smoking, along with breathlessness after exercises, could be a sign of a lung or heart problem. These symptoms are also the cause of concern, which is why it is important to have an orthopedist check you as soon as possible. These symptoms may be due to inflammation in the lungs or heart, which in turn, requires medical treatment.

i Have bad back shoulder pain exceeding to neck and head
Female | 38
Bad posture can cause aches in your back, shoulder, neck, and even head area. Other reasons include lifting heavy objects without proper form, or high stress levels impacting your muscles. Try gentle stretching exercises regularly. Also, be mindful of good posture when sitting or standing. Make sure to use a comfortable pillow when sleeping. If the pain doesn't get better soon, it's advisable to see an orthopedist or physical therapist.

Hello, I had a pain in my right side since last Tuesday night. I went to the urgent care and they did bloodwork, urine sample, and examined me. She said she think it’s a pulled muscle. I still have the pain. It radiates down my leg too
Female | 21
You may have a muscle strain or herniation in the lumbar region of the spine. My advice would be that you have to opt for an orthopedic specialist or a neurosurgeon for a final diagnosis. The doctor can suggest an imaging test such as an MRI or CT scan.

my right leg/thigh/hip is bigger than the left What is wrong with me
Male | 20
If one leg/thigh/hip is bigger than the other, it might be because of a muscle imbalance. This means that one side is stronger than the other. You may develop this condition by constantly using your one leg when walking or doing physical exercises. To solve this problem, ensure workouts that will serve each side equally.

Knee pain can be happening due to some injury, overuse, arthritis, or other underlying conditions. It would be best for her to consult with an orthopedic specialist or a primary care physician who can evaluate her symptoms perform a physical examination, and potentially order tests to determine the cause of the pain.

You need thorough clinical examination with a multidisciplinary team of Orthopedic Surgeon/Neurologists. We need to find out at which neural level is the existing problem Eg. Spinal cord, Peripheral nerve. This should be done ASAP which would improve the chances of recovery.

Sacroiliac joint dysfunction is frequently assumed to be a source of lower back and/or leg discomfort, however it is sometimes difficult to diagnose. The sacroiliac joint, which connects the triangle bone at the bottom of the spine (the sacrum) to the pelvis, can cause discomfort if its natural mobility is disrupted. More precisely, sacroiliac joint discomfort can be caused by excessive or insufficient movement.
• Leg pain produced by sacroiliac joint dysfunction can be difficult to distinguish from radiating leg pain caused by lumbar disc herniation (sciatica) since they can feel quite similar.
• The major reasons of SI joint dysfunction include - Too much or lack of movement.
• Too much movement in the sacroiliac joint (hypermobility or instability) can cause the pelvis to feel unstable and produce discomfort. Excessive mobility causes pain in the lower back and/or hip, which can extend into the groin, whereas lack of movement (hypomobility or fixation) can result in muscular tension, discomfort, and a reduction in mobility.
• Sacroiliac joint inflammation (sacroiliitis) can also cause pelvic discomfort and stiffness. Inflammation may arise as a result of sacroiliac joint dysfunction or as a result of an infection, rheumatoid disease, or other cause.
• There is no one-size-fits-all solution for controlling SI joint discomfort. For successful pain management, a combination of non-surgical therapies is frequently required.
• Treatment includes – resting for 1 to 2 days, applying ice or heat (applying it to lower back reduces inflammation and alleviates pain and discomfort; applying around the joint provides relief from pain), pain relievers like paracetamol and inflammation treating agents such as NSAID’s are recommended in case of mild or moderate pain relief. Muscle relaxants or high-end pain killers can be prescribed in case of episodes of severe and acute pain, Manual manipulation can be effective if sacroiliac joint pain is caused due to too little movement, Support or braces can be used to stabilize the pelvic area and sacroiliac joint injections such as anaesthetics such as lidocaine along with anti-inflammatory medicine like corticosteroids are given to reduce inflammation and pain.
Consult an Orthopedics for further investigations and customised treatment.

i’m an 18 year old female i’ve had shoulder pain for 7-8 months ever since a truck hood fell on me it’s cause serious pain and otc medication doesn’t help. i’ve gotten scans but no results back yet.
Female | 18
This may occur due to torn muscles or because the tendons gained injuries. Unrelenting pain might require more therapeutic medications, such as physiotherapy, and it can also go to surgery if the scan shows the result. You took the right path first to have the scans done. Take breaks ask for help, and visit an orthopedist.

Hi, I'm 21 years old, female and since September 2021 i have muscle weakness. It only occurs when i'm moving. When i chew, or walk too fast or if i brush my hair, my muscles get tired very quickly. if i sit or lay down in a certain position, my upper body starts getting kind of muscle ache. My muscle weakness is on my hole body, started on my neck, on my legs, arms and my upper body. When i rest, it gets better. The first symptoms occurs 3 days after i had an intoxication with crabs eye plant seeds. I have talked to my physician about it, blood test, especially muscle enzymes were normal. He said nothing further about it. I'm pretty sure, the muscle weakness comes from the intoxication, but i'm not sure what should i do now.

I am 36 years old and i had got injured two years ago and bone of my foot was cracked and doctors bind it with plate and it was recovered but now a major infection arose in foot that cause redness in my foot and it is spreading toward leg and whole body is swelled and i am feeling pain in my chest
Male | 36
The redness, swelling, and pain spreading from your foot to your leg and chest could mean the infection is getting worse. It may be the case that bacteria attack cells resulting in a serious health condition called sepsis, characterized by the infection invading the body. This requires immediate attention. The treatment of sepsis consists of antibiotics and other medications to maintain the infection under control. To avoid any complications it is necessary to act quickly.

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

I have a wound on my knee. Two days ago i fall in the road
Female | 22
I think you got a scratch on your knee when you fell. It's okay to have pain, redness, and swelling around your wound. This is because the fall has injured your skin. The solution is to gently clean the wound using soap and water, apply an antibiotic ointment, and cover it with an adhesive bandage. Always change the dressing daily until it heals. Opening up is necessary if the pain worsens or you notice any infections with symptoms like pus, light redness, or warmth.

If your wife is experiencing knee pain and stiffness, it could be due to various reasons like arthritis or a ligament injury. She needs to visit an orthopedist who can provide a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Consulting a specialist will help address her symptoms effectively.
