Joint Replacement Surgeon
Answered on 6th Aug '24
Your mom has developed bedsores. Sores that hurt on her hips and tailbone. They occur when someone stays still too long. These red, aching spots form from pressure. Not shifting positions frequently causes them. Hard surfaces enable bedsores' formation too. Poor circulation is another factor. To heal bedsores, follow steps. Help your mom change positions regularly. Keep affected regions dry, clean. Use cushions or pads. They reduce pressure on sores.

As a medical expert, the first advice to you is to consult a reputable orthopaedic surgeon for the correct diagnosis and treatment plan for your femur condylar bone fracture. This may intensify a possible complication later. Surgery might be necessary, but this matter can be only clarified only after a thorough examination of your case.

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.

Male | 32
The vibrations on the left leg that you feel might be a symptom of nerve irritation. This might be a problem due to many various causes, such as the inflammation or the pressure on the nerves. Therefore, to bolster your health and clear the confusion, you must consult an orthopedist to have a proper diagnosis of your issue and get the best treatment.

I’m suffering from a severe cold with a headache and particularly intense pain in the back of my neck. It’s causing me trouble when bending, getting up, and even eating. Could you recommend some medication for me? I took LCZ 5mg this morning, but it hasn’t provided relief.Also I have slight cough and a sensation in my nose.
Male | 39
Your symptoms suggest sinusitis. Inflamed sinuses cause headaches, neck pain, coughs, congestion, runny noses. Over-the-counter ibuprofen reduces pain, inflammation. Drinking fluids, using humidifiers eases discomfort. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, see a doctor promptly.

My all body in pain I'm feel fatigue and fever when I'm lay down on bed my knees burning
Male | 18
These symptoms can be caused by different underlying problems such as infections, inflammation, or fatigue. It's really important to prioritize bearing, making sure to stay hydrated, and using over-the-counter painkillers if the pain is too strong. Nevertheless, since your symptoms are very persistent, I strongly suggest you get an orthopedist's advice and an extensive assessment of it.

I got recently surgery for my femur hip on right side I'm in bed rest now but my left hip is also hurting from few days don't know why is this a serious condition
Female | Aruna
This can be one of the situations, when the other hip might feel some pain because it takes over the bigger role of supporting your body while your operation-induced leg is at rest. Don't forget about changing positions and doing small exercises for your left hip to avoid stiffness. Nonetheless, if the severity of the pain grows or the situation doesn't vanish, connect with your orthopedist.

I have a wound on my knee. Two days ago i fall in the road
Female | 22
I think you got a scratch on your knee when you fell. It's okay to have pain, redness, and swelling around your wound. This is because the fall has injured your skin. The solution is to gently clean the wound using soap and water, apply an antibiotic ointment, and cover it with an adhesive bandage. Always change the dressing daily until it heals. Opening up is necessary if the pain worsens or you notice any infections with symptoms like pus, light redness, or warmth.

Female | 20
This is a situation where the discs that act as cushions to separate the spinal bones slip out of position and eventually start compressing the neighboring nerve roots. This condition could cause pain in the back as well as difficulty in sitting or bending. Some measures like soft movements of the body, hot and cold compresses, or physical therapy may be helpful. If these treatments do not work, you can consult an orthopedist for further treatments.

Iam 21 years old male backache for 2 months and some health issues that I don't understand what should I do?
Male | 21
Back injury's roots can be different, due to incorrect body posture, overworked muscles, or stress. Any other signs you may have, including numbness or tingling in your legs, are equally important to listen to. Attempting to correct your posture, and undertake light stretching exercises, and hot or cold packs may also be beneficial for pain relief. When the pain does not diminish, it is advisable to consult an orthopedist for a second opinion and treatment.

I have slipped disc problem from 2-2.5 years
Once the doctor evaluates the case the first line of treatment is rest, limited movements, medications and if needed surgery. Once the pain settles physiotherapy is needed. Life style modification, like exercises, weight loss, avoiding long hour sitting at one place etc. is very important. Consult an orthopedic, you will find yourself the list of relevant experts on the following link - Orthopedic Doctor in India. Hope our answer helps you.

Lower back pain mainly in spine near the flank area. Pain not present all time. Pain occurred after waking up from bed at any time.
Male | 24
Sore muscles can be the root of this problem due to, for example, a bad sleeping posture. It might also be the spine itself that is giving you problems. Help your body to recuperate from the injury by avoiding movements that make it worse, using a heating pad or ice pack, and trying gentle stretches for the back. If the pain persists or you think you are feeling worse, it is a good idea to consult an orthopedist.

Being unable to turn the left hip perfectly. And thereby it looks like one of my legs are a it longer.
Male | 32
You are having a problem in the process of turning your left hip which causes one leg to appear longer. This may be caused by a condition called hip impingement. It can lead to pain, stiffness, and rigidity of your hip which can make it hard for you to move your hip. For that, you should try gentle hip exercises and stretches to treat this. If the problem continues, it is necessary to go to an orthopedist for more tests and advice.

Back of the feet something
Male | 15
Feeling some pain at the back of your feet can be Achilles tendinitis. Signs are swelling, stiffness, and aching. This happens when too much use or injury causes inflammation of the tendon that connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. To relieve the discomfort rest, apply ice packs, and do gentle stretching exercises. Supportive footwear will also help. However, if the pain persists do not hesitate to seek medical attention from an orthopedist.
