Severe Low Back Pain: Causes and Solutions
I have low back pain for 10 days now and it's my only symptom. My pain started as a light pain and now progressed. When I sit – it hurts but it goes away after some time, when I find good position. I can't bend over. When I lay down, I find a position which suits me the best and the pain also goes away when I'm laying calm. It hurts when I'm walking. What should I do? Do I need to be worried? Painkillers don't help much

You're likely feeling low back discomfort that worsens when seated, bending, or walking. This kind of ache can stem from strained muscles, poor posture, or spinal issues. Gentle stretches, applying cold or warmth, and avoiding aggravating activities are crucial. However, if the pain lingers or intensifies, consulting an orthopedist is advisable.

I am Mamta devi.before 4 months did my hip replacement surgery,and that time my bone was crack .now i have pain' in my surgery place.what i do?
Female | 65
One of the significant problems that you have to recognize and take care of is the pain in your hip that you are experiencing after the surgery. Pain at the surgery site could be a symptom of various issues such as an infection, loosening of the implant, or a fracture. The hypothesis of the pain caused by the previously broken bone is still a possibility. Visit your orthopedic surgeon for an evaluation and discuss treatment options.

I am 40 years old male and been complaining from back pain for about almost 20 years in the past years as I’m getting older. It’s been getting worse now I am kind of walking differently and my back is a little bent with a back hump, I did an MRI and I had C4 C5 C6 t1 t2 and L5 S1 mentioned some abnormality in their function. My question is will this be cured through surgery or even give me a better chance living a better life if I do the surgery because back surgery really does scare me a lot.

Your back pain could be due to herniated discs or spinal stenosis. If it is, you might have trouble walking or your posture could change. Having surgery might help take the pressure off of the nerves and make the symptoms better. Surgery can often help improve your quality of life, but it's important to consult an orthopedic surgeon or a spine specialist. They will guide you on the best treatment options and help address your concerns about surgery.

I got injured we were playing football and someone s foot on my foot so from night to no my foot is swelling continuously
Male | 20
A sprained foot might be the issue. When someone steps on your foot, the tissues get strained, causing swelling. Pain and difficulty moving your foot are common symptoms. To manage, resting, icing the area, and elevating your foot are helpful strategies. However, if swelling and pain persist, seeking medical evaluation from an orthopedist is crucial for proper assessment and treatment.

im 17 Feeling numbness and can’t feel pain only when I sit lower back it started a few days ago I can’t feel my body and when I lay down I forget to breath
Male | 17
Hey there! Those symptoms seem worrying. Numbness and not feeling pain in your lower back, plus forgetting to breathe when lying down, could mean nerve issues. A pinched nerve or poor circulation to your back may cause this. Try changing how you sit, doing gentle stretches, and consciously taking deep breaths when lying down. But, it's important to talk to an orthopedist for an exam and advice.

My son whois 12 yrs old had fractured his rightleg two months back and his plaster was removed after 6 weeks but till now he is not able to walk properly.He takes first step and slowly slowly another step.He has no pain .Is this something to worry about?when can he play football or cycling?please help.Should I massage his leg
Male | 12
It's good that your kid's leg healed from the break. After the cast comes off, walking right may be hard. That happens because the leg muscles get weaker when in a cast. Have him walk more daily. Given time, he should play football or cycle normally again. Massaging his leg gently might help strengthen those muscles. If walking still troubles him, see an orthopedist.

For bruising on foot ankle bone do I put something on it as I had a fall two weeks ago and have yellow bruising and swelling
Female | 37
The ankle contusion and the swelling of your ankle socket could be blood vessels rupturing under the skin. Such occurrences often accompany injuries. You can alleviate the swelling by placing your foot in an elevated position, applying a cold pack, and using painkillers that are over the counter to control the pain. Besides staying off the feet, which helps relieve the pain, it's best to allow the feet the healing time they need. If the pain does not resolve or worsens, seek the opinion of an orthopedist.

Female | 28
It's common to have slight asymmetries between body sides. Muscle development or alignment can sometimes cause this. Since it's not painful, it's likely not concerning. However, if you experience new symptoms or changes, visit an orthopedist.

Hello doctor My name is Santosh I fall when I'm going to down with stairs first I will no pain but 9 years later my knee has very pain can you give me
Female | 60
You may have done a number on your knee with that accident from when you fell down the stairs nine years ago. You could be feeling the pain of that older wound now. Common symptoms of a knee injury are pain, swelling, and difficulty moving. You can attack the pain by first resting your leg, applying cold, and taking pain medication if needed. If the pain continues, it's best to consult a orthopedist, for examination and treatment.

Muscle distop is genitck My genitck report is - Sir please help me
Male | 22
If your genetic report for muscular dystrophy is negative, its less likely that you have inherited the genetic mutations associated with the disorder. Not all genetic mutations are detected by genetic testing, and other factors like environmental and lifestyle can also contribute to muscle weakness or wasting. Consult an orthopedist for proper diagnosis.

What does this MRI mean? Very small right of midline C6-C7 disc herniation. No stenosis. No spinal cord edema or abnormal enhancement. There is a 9 mm right thyroid nodule
Female | 33
MRI with a very small right of midline C6-C7 disc herniation indicates a small protrusion of the spinal disc that lies between the neck bones. There's no abnormal swelling in the spinal cord and no narrowing of the spinal canal. Moreover, the 9 mm right thyroid nodule is seen, which needs to be evaluated by an Endocrinologist. You should book an appointment with an Orthopedist and an Endocrinologist to discuss further diagnosis and treatment.

I have had alot of pain in my left hand on the front part then at the opposite back which persist when i lift my hand upward or raise a heavy load..the pain has been there for1 year and 3monts time....i think i strained my chest muscles because i feel twitches all over the chest which makes it easy for me to feel my heartbeat easily.also my vains feel painful atimes...then i dont understand the problem i it is issue with nerves or muscles please asist me
Male | 17
Something could irritate some nerves or muscle tissues in your left hand. When lifting objects, you feel discomfort - likely signs of muscle strain there. Separately, those chest twitches, feeling your heartbeat more strongly - those sensations correlate with nerve agitation. To pinpoint root causes and treatment options, consulting an orthopedist proves crucial.
