You might be seeking information on sepsis, which is also known as blood poisoning. The issue of swelling and contusions is not only at the site of the fracture but may also occur in the forearm and hand. Although it may be alarming, it's usually not a symptom of blood poisoning. In case your health condition is deteriorating and you're fighting such symptoms as fever, tachycardia, and disorientation, you should not waste time seeking a medical consultation. Please also remember to keep your arm above the level of your heart and put the ice on the place to keep the swelling down.

I am 16 years old and in my leg chop stinging
Male | 16
It seems you’re having a sharp pain in your leg, so this can’t be good at all. There could be several causes for a stinging hurt in your leg such as an injury, bug bite, or maybe a pulled muscle. Rest it, put some ice on if it’s swollen, and try to keep your legs up high. If it still hurts after some time or gets worse then you should see an orthopedist as soon as possible.

I am a 17-year-old female who is recovering from a mild knee ligament stretch. I had a splint for 2 weeks and had been recovering for over a month. Yesterday, I played badminton because my knee felt good. However, I had an awkward fall and twisted my knee. It hurt at first, but I can walk and climb stairs relatively normally. It hurts when I fully straighten my knee or tighten it. There is no buckling of the knee. The pain is a little achey and a little dull. I don't know which one exactly. What should I do? Is it okay if I resume normal activities, but just be more careful and elevate my leg when I sit or lie down?
Female | 17
You might have twisted your knee again while playing badminton. Aching dull pain when you try to straighten or tighten your knee could mean the ligament has been pulled too hard. It’s great that you can still walk and go upstairs. To let it get better, you should rest as much as possible, put your leg up from time to time, and avoid doing anything too hard for a while.

I got a pain below my knee while playing soccer, which is literally hurting me now and my leg is swelling, I'm 21 years old, I think I've injured a vein, the injured area is swelling and feels watery. What can I do in such a situation?
Male | 21
You need to rest and elevate your leg, apply ice wrapped in a cloth, and use a compression bandage. Over thecounter pain relievers can help manage pain and inflammation. But make sure to consult an orthopedic specialist or sports medicine doctor from good hospital for a proper check up. And for vein injury specialised treatment will be required don't delay.

Which is the best implant for Hip Arthroplasty for a 50-year-old person. What is the cost of it?
As per my understanding you want to know which types of implant is best for hip arthroplasty. There are mainly two types of surgeries. Total hip replacement (also called total hip arthroplasty), in which the damaged bone and cartilage is removed and replaced with prosthetic components. The other type of surgery is hemiarthroplasty, which involves replacing half of the hip joint hip resurfacing and hip replacement. The choice of implant depends on the type of surgery. Consult an orthopedic - Best Orthopedic Doctor in India, who will help you to decide on the type of surgery required by the patient, and also the implant. Hope our answer helps you.

I fell while riding a bike on my elbow and ever since i have been facing pain while pronation and supranation of my wrists also when i apply preasure to the inner part of the bone in the elbow i feel immense pain
Male | 19
Pain when you twist your wrist or press the inside of your elbow may be a sign of medial epicondylitis, also known as golfer's elbow. This condition occurs when the tendon becomes swollen and irritated. To heal, you can rest your arm, apply an ice pack, and take over-the-counter medications. It's important to avoid actions that cause the pain, and if there is no improvement, it's better to visit an orthopedist for additional assessment and treatment.

Take your mother to a doctor or Ayurvedic practitioner, before starting any new medication or supplement like Sandhi Mitra Vati. This is particularly crucial for patients with pre existing conditions, like diabetes, and considering potential interactions or contraindications.

What to expect 5 months after knee replacement?
Regarding what to expect 5 months after knee replacement - If there are no complications then you can work freely as per your wish.
But after knee replacement, some patients do not recover as quickly as others. Consider the following:
- Patients who conducted knee-strengthening activities before surgery have a better chance of recovering faster.
- It may take longer recovery time for those patients who are older, smoke, or have other medical concerns.
Note: Although deviations from the "normal" recovery timeframe is not always expected, but such fluctuations are usually acceptable as long as the patient, doctor, and physical therapist continue to collaborate in the pursuit of a complete recovery.

I have back and cervical issue
Female | 30
It sounds like you're experiencing discomfort in your back and neck, likely due to poor posture or extended periods of sitting. Symptoms such as pain, stiffness, and limited mobility are common in such cases. Simple remedies like stretching, improving posture, and using supportive pillows can often provide relief. However, if the pain continues, it's advisable to consult an orthopedic doctor for personalized advice and treatment options.

Hello. I recently discovered that when I pour warm water on my thumb it starts to hurt and the pain goes thru the whole arm. It only happens when water is poured on it but when I am not showering or washing my hands my arm feels fine.
Male | 16
Hey, Welcome to ClinicSpots. We're here to help you with your health concerns.
Your pain when warm water touches your thumb, radiating through your arm, might be related to nerve sensitivity or an underlying condition like neuropathy. The warmth could be triggering nerve endings, causing the pain to spread. It’s also possible that a minor injury or inflammation is reacting to the temperature change.
Next Steps to Follow
-Avoid Warm Water: Temporarily avoid exposing your thumb to warm water to prevent discomfort.
-Monitor Symptoms: Keep an eye on additional symptoms such as swelling, numbness, or changes in skin color.
-Consult a Healthcare Professional: Schedule an appointment with a doctor, preferably a neurologist or an orthopedic specialist, for a thorough evaluation. Diagnostic tests like nerve conduction studies or imaging might be needed.
-Detailed Examination: The doctor will perform a physical examination and take a medical history to diagnose the issue accurately. They might suggest treatments such as physical therapy, medications, or further tests based on their findings.
Health Tip
Consider gentle health exercises to maintain flexibility and reduce nerve sensitivity. Ensuring good hand ergonomics and avoiding repetitive strain can also help prevent discomfort.

I have been having this problem for a while, its pain in my index finger when I make high pressure against something like when I punch a pad for my boxing like all the time when I make a fist or punch my index finger hurts and clicks/pops and it hurts and when I make a tight fist it hurts for both index fingers on each hand any advice or help thanks
Male | 16
These symptoms could potentially be related to a condition called trigger finger. It occurs when the tendons in the finger become inflamed or irritated and it leads to difficulty in finger movement and causes the clicking or popping sensation. Consult with a hand specialist or orthopedic doctor. You can try some self-care measures to alleviate symptoms. Apply ice packs or do gentle finger exercises.

I'm a 18 year old female and I've been having cramps in my left hand, mainly from elbow under to wrist and my fingers feel kind of stiff. It happened for the first time 3/4 days ago and went away automatically in about 20 mins. It happened twice today and again went on it's own. Nothing done to trigger it. A bit of neck pain. Have generalised anxiety disorder and currently tapering off of Paxidep 12.5 . The cramps kind of feel like weakness and dull ache. I can't call it painful as it does not cause pain but a bit uncomfortable.

I'M sorry to hear about your son's injury . First, stop any bleeding with gentle pressure.... Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling.. Visit a doctor to rule out any broken bones. Follow any instructions for medication and rest. Avoid putting weight on the INJURED leg. MonitoR for signs of infection, like REDNESS or fever. Contact the doctor if symptoms worsen or persist....
