Here are many things that can happen to the AC joint, but the most common conditions are arthritis, fractures and separations. Arthritis is a condition characterized by loss of cartilage in the joint, which is essentially wear and tear of the smooth cartilage that allows the bones to move smoothly. Like arthritis at other joints in the body, it is characterized by pain and swelling, especially with activity. Over time, the joint can wear out and get larger, with spurs forming around it. These spurs are a sign of the arthritis and not a cause of the pain. Reaching across the body toward the other arm aggravates arthritis at the AC joint. AC joint wear and tear is common in weight lifters, especially among those who bench press and to a lesser extent, military press. In weight lifters the arthritis at the AC joint has a special name — osteolysis.

Painless Muscle on lower thighs right leg

Female | 39

Experiencing a painless area in your right thigh can be concerning but is often due to muscle strain, tension, or even a lack of activity. Other factors, such as nutritional deficiencies or circulation changes, might contribute as well. It’s important to stay active with gentle stretching and strengthening exercises tailored to your comfort level. Staying hydrated and maintaining a balanced diet aids muscle health. However, if the issue persists or if you notice any unusual symptoms, please consider consulting an orthopedist for a thorough evaluation.

Hi, I'm Tanille Henrico. I had a decompression and fusion back surgery on my lower back 5 years ago. And I'm on Lyrica 75mg twice a day and Neurontin 500mg three times a day. My back is now starting to get more and more painful by the day. And I must drink extra pain medication every day. What must I do? Please whatsapp me back

Female | 44

Looks like you're suffering from a lot of backache. Even though Lyrica and Neurontin kinds of drugs are being taken, back pain may worsen, and this may be a brand new problem or the deterioration of what used to be. You have to meet your doctor for a check-up to diagnose the cause of the recurrent pain. Sometimes, it is necessary to change your meds or use additional treatments to reduce the pain as much as possible.

I m SANJAY I have sleep disc problem right leg vibret in feet and right side but heavy

Male | 28

It looks like a slipped disc is the main reason for your complaints. This is because one of the discs in your spine has shifted away from its normal place and has come in the way of the nearby nerves. Consequently, you may experience a vibrating sensation and a feeling of heaviness on one side of your body, especially in your left leg and foot. To help with this, it's necessary to take a rest, stay away from heavy lifting, and perform light exercises prescribed by a physiotherapist.

Female | 17

You have been suffering from severe pain and discomfort in many parts of your body. The discomfort in your fingers, legs, hips, back, neck, and the area under your breast, besides a loss of strength in your abdominal area, can be nerve problems or an injured muscle. It is paramount for an orthopedist to thoroughly check and give an exact diagnosis to receive the correct treatment for your symptoms.

Hand thumb cut , Surgery related

Male | 24

If you've sustained an injury to your thumb, symptoms may include bleeding, swelling, and difficulty in movement. Such cuts often result from accidents with sharp objects or tools. It's important to clean the wound gently and apply a sterile bandage. If the cut is deep or if you notice persistent bleeding, please seek medical assistance promptly. An orthopedist can assess the damage and determine if stitches or further treatment is necessary.

Hi im a 27 year old man and my head keeps cracking when I turn my head I had it since 2022 I don't have pain im quite worried about it

Male | 27

Usually, the cracking sound comes from the joints of your neck which are connected to your spine. It is probably because of air bubbles shifting, which is similar to cracking your knuckles. If you don't experience any pain, then it is nothing to be concerned about. Nonetheless, if you notice any discomfort or other symptoms, it is advisable to consult an orthopedist to get the necessary advice.

It's great that you've dedicated so many years to your work, but if you're experiencing health issues, it's important not to ignore them. Given your long-term involvement in food service, you may be prone to conditions related to prolonged standing, repetitive movements, or stress. Visit an internal orthopedist or a general physician who can evaluate your concerns and guide you on the next steps.

Female | 30

It sounds like you're experiencing significant back and neck pain, possibly due to misalignments in your spine as shown in your MRI results. These misalignments could be causing pressure on your nerves, leading to your enduring discomfort. I recommend consulting with an orthopedic surgeon or a spine specialist to discuss further treatment options, such as injections or surgery, to alleviate your pain effectively.

Your left thigh pain since last October might be from that fall. Typical signs are aches, swelling, and leg troubles. You likely strained or bruised thigh muscles during impact. Try resting, icing the spot, and gentle stretches. But if there is no improvement or worse pain, it's wise to visit an orthopedist. They'll check and properly treat the injury.

Hi I am not feeling well and having pain in knees

Male | 24

I feel bad seeing or experiencing this pain in your knees. Pain like this can be due to different causes such as inflammation, arthritis, or just a simple physical strain. It is necessary to check for any swelling, redness, or problems with movement. Make resting your joints, using ice for 15-20 minutes, and elevating your legs your first option to remove the discomfort. Also, OTC painkillers can be of use. Nevertheless, if you experience any persistent or intensified symptoms, please go to the orthopedist for an inclusive examination and personalized treatment plan.

I am a 27 years female and recently I fell down and my wrist got swollen and I have done an x-ray but couldn't understand the report

Female | 27

You’ve probably got a wrist fracture, which is a minor crack in the bone. It is swelling because the body is working on repairing it. To help, you might need a cast or splint to immobilize your wrist so that it can heal. Rest, ice, elevate the arm, and take painkillers as directed. Ensure you visit an orthopedist for proper treatment.
