Could Knee and Back Pain be a Possible Calcium Issue?
My mother have knee Pain and back Pain We think they have calcium issue
Joint Replacement Surgeon
Answered on 26th Sept '24
Your mom's knees and back might hurt because her body lacks calcium. Calcium deficiency can cause bone and muscle aches. It brings weakness, knee/back pain, and bones that break easily. Eat dairy products like milk and cheese which contain calcium. Also, leafy green veggies have lots of calcium. Supplements provide extra calcium too.

Your feet may hurt and swell after walking because of overuse, ill-fitting shoes, or medical conditions. Consider taking breaks during long walks, wearing comfortable shoes. Seek help from an orthopedist if the pain still persists.

I am trying to find the starting point to getting my knees replaced
Knee replacement surgery is done to replace the damaged joints so patient is relieved of symptoms. The knee joint with an artificial knee called prosthesis made of metal, plastic, and ceramic. It helps to restore function of the damaged knee and relieve arthritis pain. Knee replacement surgery is advised if the pain is interfering with your daily activities and negatively affecting your quality of life. Types of knee replacement surgery Simultaneous bilateral knee replacement - When both knees are replaced at the same time. The primary advantage of a procedure is that there is only one hospital stay and one rehabilitation period to heal both knees. But rehabilitation may be slower. Also these patients may need assistance at home also. Generalized fitness is important here. Staged bilateral knee replacement- Each knee is replaced at a different time. These surgeries are done a few months apart. This staged approach helps one knee to recover before the second surgery. The main advantage of a this procedure is the reduced risk of complications and also requires a shorter hospital stay. However, since this procedure requires two surgeries, the overall rehabilitation period can be longer. Either surgery may involve any combination of total knee replacement or partial knee replacement. The risks associated with this surgery: infection, blood clots, failure of the artificial joint, heart attack etc. Post surgery care, rehabilitation is very important. Hope our answer helps you.

Female | 18
A hurt finger that won't bend easily might be broken. A broken finger can cause pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty moving it. To confirm, get an X-ray. For pain relief, keep the finger still, apply ice, and elevate your hand. It's important to see an orthopedist for proper care.

Female | 24
I would advise you to see an orthopedist for your backache. It is also possible that relief cream will not be effective in the future if the root cause of the pain is not treated. Orthopedic specialist will be capable of identifying the cause of your backache and offer suitable treatment options.

I have back ake at my teenage 14
Female | 14
It’s common to experience back pain in your age group because of several factors. It may be due to rapid growth or carrying a heavy backpack. Some indications for this condition may include tenderness, rigidity, or uneasiness. To solve this problem, don’t carry heavy bags and do exercises that will tighten your muscles. Also, be mindful of how you sit or stand. If the discomfort persists then it would be wise to inform an adult about it.

I have a ganglion cyst on my wrist I'm suppose to have surgery on in the morning, the cyst disappeared 3 days ago. Should I still have the surgery or will they do the surgery still
Male | 37
Your ganglion cysts aren't often painful, though sometimes annoying or movement-limiting. Since yours vanished naturally, surgery might not be required anymore. However, inform your doctor about this development so they can reassess if the operation is still necessary or not.

Back burning and chubhan
Male | 25
This might be a result of many things like straining your muscles, sleeping in a bad position, or even having problems with the nerves. You may also experience it if you have been sitting or standing for long periods or lifting heavy objects. To relieve this, you can do some gentle stretching exercises, correct your posture, and use warm pads. In case this feeling continues, visit an orthopedist.

iam 39 years old I have an lateral meniscus horizontal tear surgery in March 15 2024 and I have two times synovitis problem with in 6 months so I want to know the reason why iam facing synovitis
Male | 39
You have encountered synovitis after your meniscus surgery. Synovitis is the condition where the lining of the joint gets swollen and hurtful. Surgery can cause this because of inflammation or irritation of the joint. Synovitis can be managed with rest, ice, and anti-inflammatory medications which are the best methods. If the issue does not go away, visit your orthopedic specialist for more examination and treatment alternatives.

i’m 21 years old and about a week or two ago i started having wrist pains and whenever i tried to sit up (i push myself up to sit up with my hands like a 90° angle) and it was to the point i couldn’t put ANY type of pressure on it. i don’t have a wrist splint but i’ve used those stretching, skin colored wrapping bandages which have helped a bit so i can definitely sit up way easier but now the pain is mostly just at the top of the wrist when i actually bend it more forward than i usually would when my hands are like a 90° angle when i sit up. i’m assuming it’s carpal tunnel but i don’t have insurance nor money to pay to go to a doctors office/urgent care :/
Female | 21
You're sensing friction in your wrist probably because of wear and tear. Carpal tunnel syndrome mainly causes numbness and tingling of the fingers but not just pain in the wrist. Repetitive movements and/or bad wrist positioning can cause this type of discomfort. To help, give your wrists some time out, avoid the stuff that makes the pain worse, and wear wrist support if needed. If the pain doesn't go away or gets worse, go to an orthopedist.

Male | 54
Your father is feeling pain due to Shoulder Arthritis; it’s a common affliction. Symptoms may include pain, stiffness, and difficulty moving the shoulder. The main causes are wear and tear on the joint and aging. Just applying hot water or ointments for pain relief is not adequate. For more effective treatments like physical therapy or medication, seek help from an orthopedist.

Painful thumb nail of leg pak thay evo
Female | 21
You might be having an ingrown toenail. This is when the toenail no longer grows on the skin but rather grows inside it. It can bring on further irritation, discoloration, and the build-up of bodily fluids. Tight shoes, or, on the other hand, improper nail clipping, are two principal causes of this situation. To get relief, you can soak your foot in some warm water and gently try to lift your nail. In cases of intense pain, visit an orthopedist for treatment.

Hi. Im 22 years old male. I wanted to ask whenever I masturbate, i start to feel pain inside my left hip. And it keeps getting worse at night and if again I masturbate next day, it keeps getting more and more worse. It's not getting away. I take Dicloran 100mg tablet and it keeps me pain free for 1 day only but after 1 day pain again comes. Sometimes pain also appears in my front area but mostly it feels in deep inside hip.

Hip pain during masturbation or after it can have a variety of root causes, which may include hip joint problems, muscle strain or inflammation, among others.

I am 25 year old male. I was playing soccer and I had a fairly significant leg on leg contact on my shin, it shows lots of bruising but that feels expected. What is unexpected is that my ankle/foot has intense bruising that is a deep purple and fairly large. It is tender to touch but I feel no pain otherwise on my ankle. What could this be?
Male | 25
You might have something called compartment syndrome. This occurs when the pressure within the muscles of your leg increases leading to swelling and pain. There could be intense bruising around your ankle can be an indication of this. It is vital to have it checked by an orthopedist immediately so as not to have any further complications.

You seem to have symptoms of trigger finger. In this case, the finger gets into a bent position and it becomes impossible to straighten out. I suggest you see an orthopedist who is expert in hand and wrist injuries. They will identify the problem and a corresponding treatment method.

It is vital that your doctor is aware of the pain so they can assess it and choose the most appropriate action.
