How can I ease the pain of my bruised knee?

Patient's Query

I fell on my knee and landed on a cement stair corner, it really hurts especially if I try to bend it or sometimes straighten it. It’s tender to the touch and slightly swollen where I hit it and has bruising.

Answered by Dr. Deep Chakraborty

There could have been the case of the contusion, or even a fracture due to trauma to your knee. I advice seeking medical help from an orthopaedic specialist at once to properly diagnose and treat your injury. Until then, you have to keep off the injured leg and try to pacify it with ice for it to get rid of swelling and pain.

I m 30 yrs old I have back pain for last 2yrs I took MRI scan 2 months back and treatment but still I have back pain

Male | 30

There are many different reasons why people get back pain. It could be because of a muscle strain or problems with your discs. Also, if you still have the pain even after getting an MRI done and treated for it then more tests need to be carried out. Make sure you talk about what’s been happening with your doctor because they’ll need this information to help figure out what would work best for you.

I’m really anxious about something that happened recently and wanted to get your thoughts. So, I went to see a doctor today because I’ve been dealing with some pain in my shoulders. He said it’s due to a deformity in my spine and that it should go away in a few days. The pain is sharp, burning, and kind of aches—it’s definitely worse than what I’ve felt before, but he didn’t seem too concerned. Here’s where I’m stuck: I noticed some scratches on my shoulders, but the doctor didn’t seem to pay much attention to them. When I talked to my dad about it later, he noticed the scratches right away, which freaked me out a bit. The doctor did say that I was vaccinated against rabies a year ago and also for other infectious diseases, so I should be protected, but my mind keeps going to worst-case scenarios. I’ve also been feeling nauseous, but the doctor thinks it’s just nerves. I got super anxious after the whole thing, and now I can’t get it out of my head. I barely slept last night because I’m so worried. I even asked my friends who were there, and they said it didn’t look like anything bit me—just that something flew by. I know I’m probably overthinking this, but should I be worried, or is this just my anxiety getting the best of me? Would appreciate any advice you can give! Thanks!

Sir/madam I am a student,my problem is my little finger joint dislocated it's nearly 20 days ago surgery was done successfully,but my finger is not folding

Male | 19

Your finger is likely struggling to be­nd properly after the surge­ry to fix its dislocated state. This issue arise­s due to swelling or stiffness, which can occur some­times. To enhance its be­nding ability, gently move it and follow the e­xercises suggeste­d by your physical therapist diligently. These­ exercises aim to stre­ngthen your finger and boost its flexibility gradually.
