Is knee swelling post-dislocation normal and treatable?
I got my knee patella dislocated for first time 2 weeks ago and today my plaster got dispatched. My knee has swelling is it due to plaster? And I am not able to bend it I am able to stand properly on both legs but while walking my knee can’t hold my weight properly. Will this automatically take time to be normal or should I do some exercises? And what to do to reduce swelling?

Swelling after causing a dislocated patella is usual. The plaster may play a part in the swelling, however, the major reason behind the injury is. Difficulty bending and walking are expected early on. As the knee mends, this will improve slowly over time. Light exercises your orthopedist suggests can stretch and strengthen your knee. Resting, elevating your leg, applying ice packs, and taking prescribed medications if necessary to reduce swelling will be helpful.

I have slipped disc problem from 2-2.5 years
Once the doctor evaluates the case the first line of treatment is rest, limited movements, medications and if needed surgery. Once the pain settles physiotherapy is needed. Life style modification, like exercises, weight loss, avoiding long hour sitting at one place etc. is very important.

Back of the feet something
Male | 15
Feeling some pain at the back of your feet can be Achilles tendinitis. Signs are swelling, stiffness, and aching. This happens when too much use or injury causes inflammation of the tendon that connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. To relieve the discomfort rest, apply ice packs, and do gentle stretching exercises. Supportive footwear will also help. However, if the pain persists do not hesitate to seek medical attention from an orthopedist.

Kulhe ki haddi Tut gayi hai meri age 76 saal hai kya operation karna sahi hoga ya nahi answer me. Please tell a suggestion
Male | 76
Generally, surgery is the first thing among older people with a broken hip that is used to help with healing and mobility. The operation may be the only way to heal the fracture by getting it back in the right place. It's crucial to have a conversation about the best treatment approach for you with an orthopedist.

I have injury my right leg fibula small fracture.. How help
Male | 47
A fracture is a small crack in the bone. You may experience pain, swelling, and difficulty walking on that leg. Fractures result from accidents or falls. To help, rest your leg, ice it to reduce swelling, and use crutches if needed. Get advice from an orthopedist for further care and healing.

I GOT FRACTURE IN MY LEFT LEG ANCKLE? CAN I OPERATE IT OTHERWISE PLASTER IS A GOOD OPTION.
Other | 24
It is possible to have a fracture in your ankle and have severe pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty moving the affected area. If the fracture is severe or displaced, surgery may be needed to put the bones back in place. But then, a cast or a plaster may be enough to help a stable fracture heal. An evaluation of your injury by an orthopedist will help you know the best course of action.

27 year old male, mouth breathing , typical mouth breather face, need consultaion for correction of jaw alignment
Male | 27
From what you described, you may have a disease in which your jaw does not align properly. This can happen if the teeth do not teeth along each other as they should. Signs of this condition can be a hard time breathing through the nose, enimity of sinuses, and a face that has the look of a typical mouth breather. A dentist specializing in this can assist patients through treatments like braces, jaw surgery, or other ways to correct the alignment.

I have pain in both hands(3 inches above and below the elbows) and legs(5 inches above and below the knees). Not bone pain as I feel good if I try to restrict my blood flow. I always wear knee and elbow caps for pain relief. As far I remember I'm suffering from this pain for almost 13-14 years. Currently, I'm 20 years, I'm was being told it was due to the growing stage. Earlier I had vitamin D level 7 but now it is 30 but still, the pain is not gone. I have pain almost daily, I will feel lucky I don't have pain that particular day. If I walk for long or stand or play, or do something intense then the intensity of the pain will be unbearable sometimes due to pain I can't even sleep at night. In my test report, I have everything normal. Tests I have done so far are ASO TITRE, Anti-Nuclear, CPR, HLA B profile, Anti-CCP, Phosphorus, CPK, URIC ACID, CALCIUM, GLUCOSE, VITAMIN D AND B-12, THS, CBC, Alkaline Phosphate, Potassium, LDH, Magnesium.

Sir my right hand shoulder is paining since from 3 years and it pains very harder and also get swallowed
Female | 18
The symptoms you are experiencing could be a sign of a Frozen Shoulder which is when the tissue in your shoulder becomes thicker and tighter than normal. A physical therapist can suggest some exercises that will help improve your range of motion while reducing discomfort.

I am having back and pain lain today mere yeh pain hota ha kbhi kbhi par bahut zda hota hai like sahan ni hotaa ab bhi hora hai mai kaise band kru isee
Male | 20
Such pain may happen due to incorrect posture, misuse of heavy objects lifting, or sitting in one place for a long time. You can try some gentle stretches, ice or heat packs, and taking over-the-counter pain relievers if necessary to alleviate the pain. Don't forget to take breaks and move your body to prevent stiffness. But if the pain doesn't diminish or worsen, getting further guidance from an orthopedist is prudent.

Swelling may signal inflammation, caused by injury, poor posture, or prolonged sitting. Try gentle stretches, ice, or over-the-counter pain meds. But if pain persists or worsens, see a dermatologist. They'll examine you and advise next steps.

Male | 37
It's normal to feel some pain and discomfort after your plaster is removed. Your tendon might need more time to heal fully. The stretching and pinching sensations in your thumb are part of the healing process. Be patient, rest your hand, and do the gentle exercises your doctor recommended to help your tendon recover.

Hello my name is Rohan. Yesterday I fell under a car and my leg is swollen. I went to the doctor but it didn't make any difference. Please tell me how to remove leg swelling because I have an exam tomorrow
Male | 15
Swelling in your leg can occur due to the injury. It is your body's way of safeguarding itself. If the swelling does not subside, try elevated rest, ice pack application, and wear a compression bandage. These measures can help you swell less and thus, ease your pain and make your exam successful.

I am dealing with pain, soreness, and stiffness in both my knees mostly in the inside portion after wearing orthotics for a week. I do not have swelling and I think I have full stability. Could I have caused structural damage? Or do I just need a few days of rest now that I removed the orthotics?
Male | 25
Orthotics can affect your knees. Pain, soreness, or stiffness inside your knees without swelling might indicate that orthotics are altering knee movement. It’s unlikely to cause structural damage, but giving your knees a rest can help. If pain persists, consult an orthopedist.
