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.

I hurt my big toe at football practice, it hurts and is bent a bit inwards like a little tilt, please help me
Male | 18
A sprained big toe might cause it to bend a bit and make it painful. Swelling up, making walking difficult too. This often happens from twisting or hitting the toe hard. Ice, rest, elevation, and pain meds may help ease things. But if it doesn't get better, see an orthopedist.

Pain in my neck like a popping sound burns as if acid was thrown
Female | 16
These signs could be from swelling in your neck joints or muscles. At times stress or bad posture can cause these kinds of discomfort, too. To help yourself feel better, you should try doing light neck stretches, putting hot packs on, and keeping good posture while sitting or standing. There’s no need for alarm yet; if it doesn’t get any better consider visiting an orthopedist.

My age is 73 I have a muscle problem due to this I have started losing grip in my right hand can you recommend some vatiman for this please
Male | 73
When you mention muscle issues and difficulty gripping with your right hand, it suggests some weakness. This could be due to a lack of vitamins, such as vitamin B12. You can get this vitamin from foods like fish, poultry, eggs, and dairy products. It’s a good idea to talk to an orthopedist about your problem for better guidance.

I am 39 years old and have been experiencing back pain for over 2 years. About a year ago, I started feeling pain in my lower back, which eventually subsided, but for the past 3 to 4 months, the pain has returned and now extends to my thigh and leg. When I wake up, the pain improves after some movement. I find it difficult to sleep straight in bed due to lipomas on my side waist that cause discomfort when pressed, resulting in pain. When I get out of bed, my body aches, and my legs feel weak and painful. Occasionally, I take a Nimesulide tablet, which provides relief for 5 to 6 days. Additionally, I experience pain in different parts of my body on different days, such as my chest, arms, and neck. What should I do?
Male | 40
The pain radiating from the lumbar region to the hip and leg is likely to be a sciatica, which is caused by irritation of the sciatic nerve. Thus it is advisable to wear proper clothes. The lipomas may also be located on your side waist. It is so important to have a thorough evaluation by an orthopedist to establish the exact cause of your symptoms and create a proper management plan.

Is a longer femur or longer tibia better for sprinting speed?
Male | 24
Having a longer femur is better for sprinting speed. The femur is your thigh bone. A longer femur helps power your sprints. However, a longer tibia below your knee strains leg muscles. A longer femur gives you an advantage for sprinting speed. Be sure to train safely and avoid overworking muscles though.

I have inner thigh pain
Female | 28
The involvement in a thigh muscle can be separated from the skin, a sensation like tingling, aching in the hips, or a soreness in the groin developing a tear that causes discomfort but is usually not serious. The typical culprits are muscle strain caused by overwork or swift movement. It could also be the result of minor injuries or skin inflammation. Have some rest and apply ice to the inflamed area while at the same time, stretching the area slowly. If any discomfort continues or intensifies, discuss the matter with an orthopedist.

I am 15 years old and have had a knee injury for 11 months . It started out as a meniscus injury and that has gotten better. According to my most recent MRI, I have edema , synovitis, and slight injuries to my ligaments. It doesn’t sound severe, but I have difficulty walking normally, and it often cracks, which makes it deteriorate. Also, because of the long duration，my muscles have muscle atrophy. My question is: What do the cracks mean(are they fine or not), and what should I do to recover? Thanks.
Male | 15
Crackling from your knee is fostered by harsh surfaces or air bubbles. Although it’s perfectly normal at times, it could signify a problem if pain or swelling accompanies the snaps. For recovery, gentle exercises along with physical therapy will not only strengthen supporting muscles, leading to better knee stability. Be cautious while moving be sure to stay away from activities that may exacerbate this popping sound. You can also visit an orthopedist.

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.

Hi, I was playing football and me and a mate were tackling I went to kick the football and accidentally caught the front of my ankle on the goal post. It has no swelling but I am having to use my umbrella to stay stood up and I can't put much pressure on it.
Male | 15
Your ankle's front is the shin area. Maybe you hurt your shin or stretched ligaments after hitting that post. You're struggling to stand and feeling pain - natural with ankle injuries. Rest your ankle, apply an icepack to cut swelling, and raise your leg. Use crutches to avoid placing weight on it. If pain doesn't ease, see an orthopedist for evaluation and treatment advice.

Had left body pain from shoulder to toe
Male | 22
Having pain from shoulder down to toe seems uncomfortable. A pinched nerve may cause this pain. A nerve gets pressed or squeezed, thus leading to this issue. Move gently, avoid activities increasing pain. If pain persists, visit an orthopedist for proper advice and treatment.
