Joint pain after unprotected sex is concerning. It could signal a sexually transmitted infection (STI). Common symptoms include discomfort, swelling, and stiffness in the joints. Getting tested for STIs is crucial to identify any potential infections. Moving forward, practice safe sex consistently.

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.

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.

wrist injury in both hand since a month

You might have a wrist injury that is affecting both of your hands. Wrist injuries can cause symptoms like pain, swelling, and difficulty moving your hands. These types of injuries can be caused by various factors such as overuse, sudden impacts, or repetitive movements. To help with the pain and promote healing, you should rest your hands, use ice, and try gentle exercises to improve flexibility. It's also important to avoid activities that cause extra pain. If the pain continues for a long time, visit an orthopedist.

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.

Hi Doctor! My mum's spine is fractured and L1 is degenerated, she has been advised to go for spinal surgery by one surgeon, another prescribes its not necessary yet. She also needs hip replacement surgery which according to surgeon is more urgent & should be done first. We are confused and need some expert help on this please. THANK YOU!
Female | 75
Fractures cause pain and limit movement, while spinal degeneration also leads to discomfort. Back pain and difficulty walking are common symptoms. However, hip replacement is a more urgent concern because it significantly impacts mobility. Addressing the hip first, as recommended by the surgeon, could improve the quality of life by alleviating discomfort and mobility issues.

Female | 43
Arthritis afflicts joints, causing swelling and soreness. Your knee pain, trouble sleeping, and back ache indicate this condition. Gentle exercises like swimming or walking can strengthen muscles, complementing calcium and vitamin D3 supplements. Consulting an orthopedist about physical therapy or pain medication may provide additional relief. With proper treatment, managing arthritis symptoms becomes more manageable.

You seem to have a Frozen Shoulder, a condition when the shoulder joint tissue becomes tight, causing pain. Stem cell treatment research is ongoing, making it an uncommon solution currently.

Male | 17
You were right to contact us about those crampy pains in your lower right back and side. Kidney issues can cause sensations like that sometimes. Even little kidney stones might feel similar. You must complete the full course of antibiotics prescribed. Drinking lots of water helps too. However, if the pain worsens or won't go away, you should let an orthopedist know.

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.
