We try to find the source when a person has a neck issue mainly by analyzing symptoms like neck pain, stiffness, or tingling in the arms. These problems may occur for numerous reasons, for example, bad posture, an injury, or the so-called natural degeneration with time. If you are uncomfortable in any way, you must consult an orthopedist.

  • Older individuals are more prone to falls and fractures. The incidence of ankle fractures in older patients is high and severe in some cases. The treatment is difficult and complicated in nature due to presence of comorbidities such as diabetes, obesity, hypertension and poor bone quality.
  • Treatment goals include: Stability of the joint, ability of the patient to perform daily activities independently and minimizing complications associated with fracture and other comorbid conditions.

RICE is a part of the Non-operative management of ankle fracture in older patients which includes:

R: The importance of rest cannot be overstated. In order for the fracture to heal faster limit yourself from further pressure on the foot. 

A cast will most likely be worn to keep the foot and ankle immobile.  In case of severe soft tissue swelling, a cast may be required for the first three to five days. The brace must be worn for six weeks in order to allow the fracture to heal. Cast fixation with off-loading is advised for poor bone quality depending on the radiography report.  

Ice: For reducing the swelling and inflammation, apply ice to the region for 20 minutes at a time.

 And continue further for every 40 minutes.

Compression: Wrapping the area in a bandage helps to reduce swelling.

Elevation: To assist reduce inflammation, lift your foot and ankle slightly above the level of your heart.

I have knee issues and wanted to know when I want to go to bed if wearing diapers is a good idea or not

Male | 31

At night, it can be difficult to get to the bathroom due to knee pain, making it hard to get up, and accidents might happen. However, this is not a solution for the knee condition itself, but it can help manage the issue until the knee improves. Always consult your doctor to find the best treatment option for your knee problems.

my toe nail got ripped off im using bandage on it should i avoid bandage to leave it open ?

Male | 20

A toenail injury sounds unple­asant. Ripping off a nail may lead to pain and bleeding. Bandaging he­lps keep the are­a clean, or leaving it uncovere­d if bleeding is minimal. Cleanline­ss prevents infection. Howe­ver, if severe­ pain, redness, or swelling occurs, se­eking medical attention is wise­.

I have knee issues and when I want to sleep I don't want to get up is it a good idea to wear diapers to bed

Male | 31

Wearing diapers at night can cause you knee pain, so it's better to avoid it. When you are experiencing knee pain, your mobility is restricted which makes it hard for you to sleep. However, wearing diapers will not help. Knee issues arise either because of injury, arthritis, or muscle strain. To help, use pillows to support your knees while sleeping and also do gentle doctor-recommended exercises to strengthen your knee. Instead of only treating the pain, you should focus on the cause of the knee problem.

Hello i have been experiencing alot of pain on my left hand side for 1 year and 3 months time ....i have had an echo test but all results are good but then the pain perist i dont know why but think i strained my chest muscles because i cant hold heavy objects ..the inside parts of the chest twitches alot i need some asistance

Male | 17

For some time­ now, you've had pain on your left side. The­ echo test results se­em fine, so the pain may come­ from strained chest muscles. Twitching in the­ chest can occur with this condition. To ease the­ discomfort, rest your chest muscle, don't lift he­avy objects, use ice packs, and take­ ibuprofen or similar pain relieve­rs.

I've been having knee pains for a few years but never very bad. Last year, I hyperextended my knee and ever since I'll have someday where I almost don't feel any pain, and other days where I feel like it's ready to just give out. Is there any advice on what this could be or how I could treat it?

Male | 15

Persistent knee pain along with hyperextension injury should be evaluated by a healthcare professional. It could be due to ligamentous injury, meniscal tear, or patellofemoral pain syndrome. Some rest and pain medications can provide temporary relief.
