Hi I have started to experience pain in my hard under thumb on the wrist, 6 months ago I dropped a 2 kg weight from 6ft in height it’ feel off and landed on my hand and then 4 months after started to experience pain and now a a abnormal lump come up on wrist on base of thumb
Male | 26
You may have gotten a ganglion cyst when that weight dropped. Too much pressure on your wrist joint makes fluid bubble up under the skin. The bubble's like a little bump that hurts. Try icing it, take pain meds you can buy without a prescription. If the problem stays bad or gets worse, check with an orthopedist about fixing it.

Male | 66
Your father regularly suffers from knee pain and swelling which can be a bothering problem for him. This might be arthritis, a condition responsible for joint pain and swelling. It is good that he is consuming vitamin D and calcium because they are essential for good bone health. Yet, he may want to see an orthopedist for the medication of pain relief and physical therapy to manage the pain better.

My father has diagnosed with avascular necrosis of the right femoral head with joint capsulitis and moderate joint effusion and ischemic changes in neck of the right femur.So does he require hip replacement surgery?
Male | 64
YES, HIP REPLACEMENT SURGERY IS LIKELY NECESSARY FOR AVASCULAR NECROSIS.. Avascular necrosis is when bone tissue dies due to a lack of blood supply. It can lead to pain and joint damage. Joint effusion is swelling from excess fluid, while joint capsulitis is when the joint capsule is inflamed.. ischemic changes refer to REDUCED BLOOD FLOW.. All of these can make it difficult to move and cause pain.. Surgery may help improve mobility and decrease pain.. YOUR FATHER'S DOCTOR WILL BE ABLE TO ADVISE ON THE BEST TREATMENT PLAN..

I am feeling mild pain in my waist to knee vein while standing position since 4 days. no problem in sitting, walking or running. in first day i felt numbing sense too. i have worry about vericose vein.
Male | 31
Some of your symptoms might be related to varicose veins, which are enlarged veins that can vary in color and shape. They often cause discomfort and dull pain. Prolonged standing can worsen this pain. The numbing sensation you felt might be due to insufficient blood flow through the veins. To improve circulation, try elevating your legs when lying down and wearing compression stockings. Additionally, regular exercise and avoiding excessive sleep can help. Keep an eye on your symptoms, and if the pain worsens or becomes severe, visit an orthopedist.

Hi I'm a 16 yo male and I have poor posture, I used to think that I have minor kyphosis , forward neck , rounded shoulders with scapular winging for which I had consulted a orthopedic doctor he told me to do spine and chest xray, After looking at the xray he told me that my posture is not seen as a deformity and it will cause no problems THE FINDINGS IN MY XRAY REPORT ARE ~Xray report of lumbo sacral spine (ap+lat) • sacralization of lumbar vertebra noted • straightening of lumbar curvature noted • reduced disc space noted between lumbar vertebrae ~Xray report of cervical spine (ap+lat) •Mild straightening of cervical curvature noted •bilateral cervical ribs noted •impression - cervical spondylosis ..........but I think due to my posture I get injuries while heavy workout and few months before I got injured while doing wide arm push up. The injury resulted in pain in shoulders for 3 days and a lower soilder for days until I watched a video on YT how to stretch to fix it.......how ever it was gone and now Im left with uneven collar bones at the chest due to which the mobility is different in both hands. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

14 years se arthritis h thik ho ga ya nahi
Female | 45
Arthritis affects the joints, causing pain, stiffness, and swelling. While these symptoms can improve with treatment, they often come back. For someone living with arthritis for 14 years, proper management is important. This includes medications, exercise, and lifestyle changes. Regular check-ups with healthcare providers help monitor progress and adjust treatment. Although arthritis doesn’t go away completely, it can be well-managed over time.

I’m 20 year old male. I’m feeling pain in only a single spine while stretching and while bending my neck too much. The pain in the spine that is between the scapula. The pain in not radiating or spreading. It is only on that single spine
Male | 20
It sounds like there might be a sore muscle in your spine between your shoulder blades. It can result from overexertion or bad posture. The symptoms are pain when you stretch or bend your neck. To help, try mild stretching, use a heating pad, and take the prescribed pain relievers. In case the pain remains or the situation gets worse, consult an orthopedist who will examine you further.

Shoulder pain , and less movement while lifting the shoulder
Female | 48
Lifting your arm but feeling shoulder pain isn't great. Sometimes it results from tearing or overstretching a muscle. Frozen shoulder cases involve shoulder joint stiffness and reduced movement. To relieve the soreness, try gently stretching. However, if discomfort lingers, get evaluated by an orthopedist.

I have turf toe in 1year ago I eat medicine buy in medical store and iceing But did not get relief, today I am having pain again and all this happened while playing football.
Male | 14
You could be having turf toe, which is typical when doing sports such as football. Turf toe occurs when the big toe joint is injured, and can cause pain. Symptoms are swelling, pain, and limited movement of the toe. To assist in the healing process, try to rest your foot, use ice packs, and wear supportive shoes. Ignoring the pain, and consulting with the family doctor is a better option.

Hi sir/madam, I undergone left leg acl surgery 2 years ago, now I'm experiencing pain at side of the knee but i can do full extension.
Female | 27
This discomfort could stem from inflammation or irritation after your left ACL surgery. Post-op recovery often entails such challenges. Ice packs can provide relief. Rest helps too. Additionally, gentle exercises strengthening knee muscles may prove beneficial. However, if the pain persists, see an orthopedist.

I am 20 year old female. I have recurring back pain in my lower back since last 3 months. Its gets triggered after I do cleaning work or lifting weights. The pain has shifted to the side of my hip since last 2 days. What should I do?
Female | 20
It's important to address your recurring lower back pain, especially since it's now affecting your hip area. These symptoms could indicate a musculoskeletal issue or a possible strain. I recommend consulting an orthopedic specialist or a physiotherapist. They can evaluate your condition, suggest appropriate exercises or treatments, and provide guidance on managing and preventing further discomfort.

Im a female 33 years old i suffer from scoliosis since birth and ive done 3 operation the last one was in 2004 which caused injury to my spinal cord. I can feel and walk with crutch and i can take one or two step without support, my right leg is more affected than my left. I read that only injuries less than one year or 2 is perfect for stem cells, my injury is 20 years old. Would it be possible for the stem cell therapy to work in my case ? Thank you
Female | 33
You are hoping stem cell therapy might help with your scoliosis. But stem cell therapy is still being studied and is not a normal treatment for back injuries yet. Since your injury happened a while ago, it may be less likely to work well. It is important to keep following your current treatment plan. You should talk to your orthopedist about any new therapies that might help you too.

I am 28 years old. From last 2 weeks i am having pain in my left side chest and shoulder/ collar bone.
Male | 28
Your complaint involves the left side of the chest and shoulder/collar bone which has been present for the past two weeks. It may be caused by many things like a muscle strain, an injury, or even heartburn. Besides that, other symptoms such as difficulty breathing, sweating, or nausea may also be present in more severe cases. It's of the utmost importance to rest, apply ice, and stay away from vigorous exercises. Should the pain be persistent or get worse, you are advised to see an orthopedist.
