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.

However all seems to be good till 45 days no pain and everything looks good at the knee but after 45 days when we opened the bandage they we found one of the bone piece not set properly . But there no pain. And even I can stand and gold my knee upto 90 degrees. My question is 1) what can be done to set this 2) what happens if the leave that like this. 3) Can this be treated again without surgery 4) I had consulted multiple orthopaedic specialists and each of them suggesting different opinions.

Male | 33

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.

how can i know that my growth plate are closed or open at home

Male | 18

If you want to know if the bone line of your bone is closed or still open, you can see a doctor and get some exams done on it. Typically, if you have completed your growth spurt and there are differences in your body, it might mean closure. Among the known factors are age, hormone fluctuations, and genetics. Nevertheless, the best way to determine that is a physical examination, for instance, an X-ray that the physician can accurately interpret. If you are worried about the development or growth, I advise you to visit an orthopedist who will give you advice and the comfort of your mind by making an examination plan just for you.

My feet are in pain 4 weeks

Male | 22

Experiencing discomfort in your feet for weeks may have been caused by the fact that your feet were subjected to different amounts of pressure, you were wearing uncomfortable shoes, and you may have some grave diseases such as plantar fasciitis or arthritis. Common symptoms include aching, swelling, or stiffness. To alleviate discomfort, try resting your feet, applying ice packs, and elevating your legs. Well-made shoes can make a big difference.

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 fell down a flight of stairs and my ankle is swollen and sore. Can you help me figure out what's wrong and what I can do to fix it?

Female | 14

One should refrain from walking on the injured leg and should elevate the leg to prevent swelling, as well as use ice packs for at least 15-20 minutes every couple of hours. Pain relievers that you can buy without a doctor's prescription can be used to stop the pain by the way they work. However, if the area gets worse or you can't walk properly, it is important to see an 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.

Okey so from past 2 months im having back pain from which im unable toh sit like im sitting for 5 minutes and than my back starts paining also its difficult for me to bend forward.. and my back is not when im laying down so what's is this issue can u please tell me.. also i have tried consulting a doctor he said it due to lack of calcium and vitamin im havin g medicine but its not helping me..

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.
