I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia by my doctor as no other condition fits the symptoms. However I don’t believe it is correct as my pain areas are constant and not sore to touch. When I touch the pain area the pain is relieved. I have pain around my forehead, neck, traps on both sides. Then on the right side my lat, glute, hamstring and calf. I am fatigued all the time, muscles are either tensed or not activating. I’ve had this same pain every waking hour for 6 years. Does anyone know what this condition actually is?
Male | 31
According to the symptoms that you have mentioned, the most likely diagnosis to your muscle pain and fatigue is Myofascial Pain Syndrome. Which produces muscle pain and tenderness, similar to fibromyalgia, is among the symptoms of this condition. Muscles' trigger point gets developed, causing pain in different areas due to the compression against the nerves. The muscle would then become loosened up or weaker. The key features of this disorder include physical therapy sessions, injections of trigger point pressure, and a certain kind of drug guidance to manage stress.

I'm an 18 year old female, has an old unattended back injury from 10 years ago hurts from time to time recently has been feeling some chest pains and difficulty in breathing what could it be?
Female | 18
Judging from the information that you have given, your past back injury and these new symptoms could be linked. Often old injuries can be a cause of problems later. The chest pain and breathing problems may indeed be caused by your spine affecting the nerves and muscles in that part of your body. An orthopedist needs to check everything to make sure you are ok and that you feel better.

I've been getting pain in my sacrum since two days. It's severe pain and a slight swelling in the area.
Male | 21
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.

Pain in buttocks to bottom of the leg after periods
Female | 21
This kind of pain may happen from sciatica. Sciatica is when a nerve in your back gets bothered. It is common for this pain to come after your period because of changes in your body. To help with this, try using a hot pad and doing easy stretches to feel better. If the pain keeps going or gets worse, it is good to talk with an orthopedist to find more ways to treat it.

I have my elbow fracture surgery 30 moneths ago there is plate and wire in it should i remove them or stay it forever because the elbow will nkt extend 1
Male | 21
It is common to be concerned about the plate and wire in your elbow after a fracture surgery. They can sometimes make you feel uncomfortable or limit your range of motion. If this is your stage, the best point-to-point conversation with an orthopedist who can examine the health situation is required. Removal of the bone plate and wire may be the dislodging of the most harm there is if the doctor were to intervene and help you attain maximum elasticity in the hand.

I am 22 years old my leg was hit by a wood and it is swollen..I only take Panadol and use ice can u tell me if its fracture or not because when I walk it's hurting me....
Female | 22
If you were hit by wood and now your leg is swollen, hurts and you can’t walk properly, wood has fractured your bone. A fracture occurs when a bone breaks. Make sure to see an orthopedist who can do an X-ray to confirm if there is a fracture or not and before then, keep on taking Panadol for pain and apply ice to reduce swelling. Rest the leg as much as possible.

I am 18 years old.Suffering from knee pain on right leg left side.i decreased my weight in 2 months upto 3 kgs.feeling neck pain and spinal cord pain
Female | 18
The knee pain on the outer side might be from some trauma or strain. The hurting of the neck and the spinal cord can be from bad posturing and muscle tension. You need to let that affected region recover, apply ice to the area, and do light stretching with the injured or painful part. Always keep your posture in the right way and make more decisions to reach out to a physiotherapist as a part of your strategy to get better quicker.

I’m 15 and was diagnosed with soft tissue damage at the top of my right foot going into my ankle. It started in November 2023. It’s gotten worse.
Female | 15
You have hurt the soft parts in your right foot near the ankle. This could have happened by doing too much, a sports injury or even twisting it. Pain, swelling, and hard to move the foot are some common signs. Make sure you rest the foot, put ice on it and keep it up so that it does not swell. You can also try stretching it gently and taking pain relief medicine. If the pain does not improve, talk to an orthopedist about what else you should do.

For shoulder pain similar to a frozen shoulder, it's best to consult an orthopedist for accurate diagnosis and treatment advice.

My mother had an accident more than 10 years ago on her left thumb and without getting any proper treatment , her left thumb is not working voluntarily and its always folded. She can still feel pain but could not move her thumb. Is there any chance her thumb can work?
Female | 61
Nerves make our muscles move. If a nerve is hurt, the muscle it goes to won't work. The best thing for her thumb is to do exercises that might wake up the muscles and see a person who treats her hands. If someone is hurt it is important to get help fast so they can get better. Visit an orthopedist for further consultation.

How to get rid of knee crepitus
Male | 36
Knee crepitus can be from multiple causes. Painless crepitus can be ignored. So, I won't advice for crepitus knee treatment as such.. Crepitus from knee cap problems can be cured with hip and knee strengthening. Crepitus from cartilage irregularities or loose pieces often need minor keyhole surgery. Painful crepitus from arthritis is initially treated with physical therapy and surgery when therapy stops helping.

Lower back pain.Fenak plus taken.Pl suggest some pain killer as Fenak plus is strong
Male | 67
Tab. Fenak Plus is an anti-inflammatory medication that you have taken for your back pain. Lower back pain can be of two types mechanical (activity-related / mechanical pain) or an inflammatory low back pain seen in patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis. Painkiller tablets will help in both, but what’s important to differentiate is the type of back pain present, which can be done on evaluation of the patients based on their history and physical examination. I would recommend you to visit an Orthopedic doctor near you

Hi I am 33 years old weighing 75 kgs approx.I have 3 kids with natural delivery.Since 10 days I am having pain in my left knee which occurs only while bending or climbing up the stairs.I have no problem while standing or doing any heavy related work.Its only at bending time that the pain kicks in. I am healthy with no allergies,infections or any other ailment. I haven't been injured in my legs.I feel it's happening due to increase in my uric acid. Kindly advise on my course of action to alleviate the pain.
Female | 33
Your left knee hurts when you're bending over or climbing stairs. This kind of pain, which occurs only on bending, might be due to a condition called patellofemoral pain syndrome. It is likely to be triggered by activities such as climbing stairs. Increasing uric acid levels are not generally associated with knee pain. To help ease the pain, you can begin by taking it easy on your knee, applying ice packs, gently stretching, and taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. If the pain persists, it's best to seek advice from an orthopedist for further evaluation and treatment options.

I am a 50 year old diabetic with rheumatoid arthritis. I have had a numb feeling that also feels like a cramp causing severe pain down my right side, starting at the base of my spine, down the back of my right leg, all the way down to my foot. Help please.
Female | 50
Your symptoms are quite similar to those of sciatica. Sciatica pains are a form of irritation of the sciatic nerve, which is often responsible for the feeling. Physical therapy or even surgery may be necessary. It's important to consult a specialist, like a rheumatologist or orthopedic doctor, for proper diagnosis and treatment guidance tailored to your condition.

I am 39 years old female. I have always been very active growing up, doing softball, martial arts, basketball etc. I blew my right ACL in my knee in 2009 and got it fixed. However, in the last 6 months I've noticed that I have been hurting A LOT in my joints, lower back, and left hip. Like, if I am up on my feet more than like 30 to 40 min and sit down my lower back and left hip hurt pretty bad and it is a deep pain like in the bones and joints. Would this be arthritis related, inflammation from arthritis from my years of being active....? I have also noticed that I get small random bruising here and there from time to time and not recall why. If I sit for like 30 min and go to stand up, I have to stand up slow bc my lower back hurts so bad it takes me a few min to be able to straighten my back out as well.
Female | 39
You are faced with some pain as a result of arthritis connected to an old knee injury together with your ongoing active life. Inflammation due to arthritis may lead to the feeling you’re experiencing. To get better, indulge in light workouts, try out cold and hot therapy, or even take some drugs or visit an orthopedist.

I have a ganglion cyst on my wrist I'm suppose to have surgery on in the morning, the cyst disappeared 3 days ago. Should I still have the surgery or will they do the surgery still
Male | 37
Your ganglion cysts aren't often painful, though sometimes annoying or movement-limiting. Since yours vanished naturally, surgery might not be required anymore. However, inform your doctor about this development so they can reassess if the operation is still necessary or not.
