i am 24 years and my bone mineral density score is -2 and vitamin d level is 14
Male | anvesh
It appears you've been diagnosed with low bone density and vitamin D deficiency, which can lead to bone pain, weak muscles, and fractures. A diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, including dairy products, leafy greens, and sunlight exposure, is crucial for bone health. Your doctor may recommend vitamin D supplements to improve your calcium levels. Additionally, maintaining a nutritious diet and engaging in exercises like running and strength training prescribed by your orthopedic doctor can help maintain bone strength and overall health.

I have a pain in my upper heel it's been 1.5 year and I have tried everything to heal but nothing is working can it be possible to me walk without any pain
Male | 21
You may have plantar fasciitis. It occurs when foot bottom tissue gets strained, and inflamed. Comfy shoes help. Do stretches. Apply ice. See a physical orthopedic specialist if the pain won't go away. They'll make a treatment plan for you. Keep caring for yourself.

I had a question I was eating and accidentally put to much sugar and my back being hurting for the pass 4 days
Male | 17
Eating too many sweet things can make your back hurt. Sugar can make your body inflamed, and that leads to pain in your back. You should eat less sweet foods and drinks. Eat more fruits, veggies, and whole grains instead. Drink lots of water too. Light exercise might also help your back feel better. If you don't feel relieved, contact an orthopedist.

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.
Female | 17
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.

My mother has left arm and shoulder pain for the past 2 days but hasn't had any injury recently. Is it serious like a heart attack symptom?
Female | 51
Arm and shoulder pain might be simple but never neglect it. It could indicate heart trouble. Watch for chest unease, breathing problems, and queasiness too. But muscle strain or poor posture causes such pain as well. Let your mother rest and ice the area - if the pain eases, no worries. However, if it persists or worsens, consult an orthopedist right away.

- Older individuals are more prone to falls and fractures. The incidence of ankle fractures in older patients is high and severe in some cases. The treatment is difficult and complicated in nature due to presence of comorbidities such as diabetes, obesity, hypertension and poor bone quality.
- Treatment goals include: Stability of the joint, ability of the patient to perform daily activities independently and minimizing complications associated with fracture and other comorbid conditions.
RICE is a part of the Non-operative management of ankle fracture in older patients which includes:
R: The importance of rest cannot be overstated. In order for the fracture to heal faster limit yourself from further pressure on the foot.
A cast will most likely be worn to keep the foot and ankle immobile. In case of severe soft tissue swelling, a cast may be required for the first three to five days. The brace must be worn for six weeks in order to allow the fracture to heal. Cast fixation with off-loading is advised for poor bone quality depending on the radiography report.
Ice: For reducing the swelling and inflammation, apply ice to the region for 20 minutes at a time.
And continue further for every 40 minutes.
Compression: Wrapping the area in a bandage helps to reduce swelling.
Elevation: To assist reduce inflammation, lift your foot and ankle slightly above the level of your heart.

I’m 50 yrs old and have been suffering with planters fasciitis for years. It started after working at Home Depot. I seen an orthopedic back in 2002 ish, got an injection and was fine. I then left HD and came back yrs later. Now it’s back and I believe I’m also dealing with Achilles tendonitis. My mother who drove a bus for 30 yrs has also dealt with this for a very long time. She can barely walk and I’ve started limping. I don’t want this to slow me down but the doctors here in Wichita Falls are not much help and my mother hasn’t been able to get any relief in California or now in Arizona. My question is is there anything we can do. I have 6 kids, 3 of which are still in school. I can’t just slow down. And I hate seeing how miserably mother is. We are both taking Duloxitine, which helps sometimes. Besides surgery is there anything we can do?
Female | 50
Plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis can be quite bothersome, but there are several ways to ease the pain. Try stretching exercises for your calves and feet, wear supportive shoes, use orthotic inserts, apply ice to reduce inflammation, and take over-the-counter pain relievers. It's also important to avoid activities that make the pain worse.

I am trying to find the starting point to getting my knees replaced
Knee replacement surgery is done to replace the damaged joints so patient is relieved of symptoms. The knee joint with an artificial knee called prosthesis made of metal, plastic, and ceramic. It helps to restore function of the damaged knee and relieve arthritis pain. Knee replacement surgery is advised if the pain is interfering with your daily activities and negatively affecting your quality of life. Types of knee replacement surgery Simultaneous bilateral knee replacement - When both knees are replaced at the same time. The primary advantage of a procedure is that there is only one hospital stay and one rehabilitation period to heal both knees. But rehabilitation may be slower. Also these patients may need assistance at home also. Generalized fitness is important here. Staged bilateral knee replacement- Each knee is replaced at a different time. These surgeries are done a few months apart. This staged approach helps one knee to recover before the second surgery. The main advantage of a this procedure is the reduced risk of complications and also requires a shorter hospital stay. However, since this procedure requires two surgeries, the overall rehabilitation period can be longer. Either surgery may involve any combination of total knee replacement or partial knee replacement. The risks associated with this surgery: infection, blood clots, failure of the artificial joint, heart attack etc. Post surgery care, rehabilitation is very important. Hope our answer helps you.
