I think i have pectus excavatum i have a 2.6-2.7 cm concave chest i do not have problem in breathing but i think it might cause problem in future

Answered on 6th Aug '24
Pectus excavatum is when your chest sinks inward. It happens because of how your ribs and breastbone develop. Although breathing troubles can happen, you said you're okay there, which is good. To keep an eye on things, talking to an orthopedist is wise. They can suggest the best approach for managing your condition.

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.

Ensure that you pay attention to your body when a fever and chest pain are experienced together with hip joint pain because these signs may indicate different conditions including viral infections or inflammation; rest well take a lot of water and if need be use painkillers but if they persist or become severe seek medical help from an orthopedist.

Male | 21
Pain in the foot joints after walking a lot is quite common. The joints might be sore from the pressure and movement. To ease the pain, rest your foot, apply ice, and gently stretch your foot and calf muscles. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes and avoid walking long distances for now.

Female | 19
Your shoulder pain is quite troubling. Weakness in your arm may indicate nerve or muscle problems. Pulling your arm could worsen the issue. Consulting another doctor like a neurologist is crucial. They'll diagnose the condition precisely. After that, treatments like physical therapy may help alleviate your symptoms.

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 24 years old and male. I hurt my knee in football and now I feel pain on one side.
Male | 24
You may have injured your knee during a football match. Achilles tendinitis or patellar tendinitis are the two most frequent causes of pain in the knee after an injury. Further, you may also have swelling or a problem moving the knee. To alleviate your knee problem, rest your knee, then put some ice on it to let it heal and elevate your leg. If you are still experiencing pain, it is relevant to take a rest from your daily activities and consult an orthopedist or therapist.

wrist pain alternating between both wrists, lower back pain, knee pains resembling bruising above the knees and sometimes bruise like pain in the thighs and sharp hip pain all the way to the foot (like a pulled string feeling) - most are often after overuse (phone, walking, sleeping wrong). They don’t always happen at once but sometimes all together. Other discomforts involve stabbing pain inside the foot from under when walking for too long, finger joint pains usually worse the second day after overuse and shoulder and elbow pains after sleeping slightly wrong or overuse. Occasional Tingling/numbness in fingers (I can’t feel my fingers for a few seconds sometimes) and most often stiffness in finger joints occur in the mornings. Occasionally, affected areas exhibit slight redness and warmth. Recently I’ve found that stretching the pained areas helps a lot. General tiredness persists. These symptoms have persisted for nearly a year, fluctuating in severity. There haven't been any major accidents. Tests * anti ds dna is negative * HLA-B27 is negative * Ana is positive — * RF factor negative. * Knee X-Ray shows some cartilage thinning * MRI done: report says Signal loss due to degeneration was observed in the L4-5 disc * vitamin d3 at 28
Female | 24
Your body experiences a variety of aches in areas like your wrists, lower back, knees, thighs, hips, feet, fingers, shoulders, and elbows. You may also feel tingling sensations and stiffness. ANA results suggest possible autoimmune issues and low vitamin D levels contribute to bone and muscle pain. An MRI has shown spine degeneration, likely causing some of your symptoms. It's essential to consult a orthopedist to address these concerns.

Hi doctor, i am 29 years old 55 kg . I met a accident 5 months ago and i fractured my l2- l4 transverse process. And comminuted fracture of l5 . And my arm bone fracture. I lose my head orientation for 2 months because of head injury and i stay on bedrest at that time. Then i feel no pain when my brain was oriented for 3 months. Then i had my arm x-ray and it was bone non union. Doctor advised me for bone graft surgery that i adapted. Just after surgery i feel lumbar pain and i am feeling this pain come and go from 3 weeks after my surgery. I want to know about this pain and how to get rid of this?
Male | 29
Lumbar pain after a bone graft surgery is a normal occurrence. This discomfort can be attributed to the fact that the tissues of the wounded area and before surgery the bone protrudes below the spine instead of being healed. It is important to sustain the gentle movement of the vertebrae to prevent being immobile as compared to before these strenuous activities. You can also use warm compresses and simple stretching to help reduce pain. You should see an orthopedist to diagnose the problem and give appropriate medication.

I am having pain in my foot ball and in ankel when i walk from last 10 days. Its feel like my foot ball skin has been increased and which is squeezing when i walk with my normal sports shoes.
Male | 28
You may have a condition known as Morton's neuroma. This is when the tissue that surrounds a nerve in your foot gets thicker and causes pain that feels like a squeezing sensation when you are walking. The usual reasons may be the use of tight shoes or high heels. For this purpose, try to wear shoes with the proper space for your toes, and insoles for the better support of your feet to feel better. If the pain is continuous, then a visit to an orthopedist.

Experiencing pain while sitting

You feel this kind of pain while sitting. This pain can be caused by different things. It can be due to a strained or tight muscle sometimes. Other times it could be from the spine or nerves having a problem. To ease the pain, try sitting with good posture, using pillows for support, and doing light stretches. If it persists, you should seek help from an orthopedist who may advise on what could serve as a relief.

I have my left leg Knee is swelling from last 3 days
Male | 56
The knee usually gets swollen as a result of different causes. It may be because of an acute trauma, arthritis, or an infection. On some occasions, also any stiffness in the knee will become more evident if she overexercises. You can use intermittent leg elevation, ice application, and rest to bring down the swelling. However, if the swelling lasts or grows severe, you should have it checked by an orthopedist.
