Why am I still experiencing leg pain post laminectomy?

Laminectomy and Discordectomy + l4-5 fixation with decompression of cord. Pre op my problem was being unable to stand and drive for more than 15 mins after that, I feel burning sensation in my left leg. Post op after 2 months, the situation is worse. Now I cannot even site for 10-15 mins without the same happening. The doctor said it is due to lack of protein and to eat more non veg but I have been eating Non-veg every other day. Is the doctor here have performed a failed op or it wasn't even the right operation needed to undergo

It sounds like you're having a tough time after your surgery. The burning sensation in your leg might be caused by nerve issues, or perhaps the surgery didn't go as expected. While a lack of protein could be a factor, it's not the only possibility. It would be best to consult with an orthopedist again to get a clearer understanding of the issue.

I am a type 2 diabetic patient.four days before a rusted nail pierced my right foot.after that my foot started swelling and i am not able to eat and having nausea and I also have gastric trouble and constipation.i vomited thrice today and I didn’t have my antibiotics or any diabetic tablets.i also have headache and fever

Male | 56

Maybe there is an infection in your foot. When your skin is pierced, bacteria may enter and cause swelling. The symptoms you are having such as feeling sick to your stomach (nausea), throwing up, being unable to have a bowel movement (constipation), headache, and having a high temperature could be due to the infection moving around. Quick treatment with antibiotics and other drugs from a doctor is needed so that you can get well soon.

Good morning. I was doing high jump in a school,and my leg ankle removed and got my leg a little short. Can it be resolved be straighten it and make it balanced with the other one

Male | 34

You seem to have dislocated your ankle, which can give your leg a longer impression. Such occurrences are observed when the bones in your ankle are misplaced. To correct this, you should go to an orthopedist who can put the bones back into the right place. A splint or a brace may be used by them to enable your ankle to recover properly. Adhering to their recommendations is critical if you want your leg to be straightened and aligned with your other leg. Rest, elevate your leg, and stay away from putting weight on it until you see a doctor.

Mild pain in left testis and left leg

Male | 23

The pain might come from a varicoce­le, like a varicose ve­in in your testicle. It slows blood flow and causes aching. To he­lp, wear supportive underwe­ar and avoid standing too long. But if pain worsens or you notice swelling or change­s in your testis, see a doctor. This rule­s out serious problems.

Why does ac joint hurt?

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.
