Your kid may have injured a knuckle while he landed. All the symptoms, even the growth of the knuckle, its strange shape, and heavy sensation do show a fracture or dislocation. So, applying ice is a typical solution to reduce any swelling the hand has. It means that once the swelling has shrunk using ice, one can then gently bandage the hand. The best thing to do is to visit an orthopedist for evaluation and treatment.

It seems that, according to your described symptoms, you are dealing with one of the types of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which is a clot in the blood vessels deep inside body. You should immediately seek the advice of a physician, preferably from among vascular specialists to allow for proper testing and diagnosis. DVT is a severe condition that requires emergency treatment.

Hi, Im a 40 year old female. i have alot of pain in my heels, which is almost unbearable now and im seeking help in regards to that. i dont know if this is related to the pain , but i have Psoriasis and got treated for it around 5 years ago, and get checkups once in a year. i think the pain might be somewhat related to Psoriasis as it is right over my heels. hope someone understands the root cause of this and helps me.
Female | 40
Your heel discomfort troubles me. Heel agony may stem from Psoriatic Arthritis, a Psoriasis-linked disorder. This condition inflames joints, causing aches and swells. Neglecting it risks permanent harm. Thus, consulting a Rheumatologist is crucial for proper assessment and therapy. They'll prescribe medicines and suggest exercises to alleviate your suffering.

Hi, I was playing football and me and a mate were tackling I went to kick the football and accidentally caught the front of my ankle on the goal post. It has no swelling but I am having to use my umbrella to stay stood up and I can't put much pressure on it.
Male | 15
Your ankle's front is the shin area. Maybe you hurt your shin or stretched ligaments after hitting that post. You're struggling to stand and feeling pain - natural with ankle injuries. Rest your ankle, apply an icepack to cut swelling, and raise your leg. Use crutches to avoid placing weight on it. If pain doesn't ease, see an orthopedist for evaluation and treatment advice.

hi im zarina 40 yrs old since few years i have neck and right hand pain but nowadays its pain is extremely and i did an xray can u assist me plz
Female | 40
You sound like you're in pain with your neck and right-hand issues. The X-ray procedure you suggested was an excellent way to find out what was wrong. The pain in your neck and right hand might be caused by muscle strain, poor posture, or even arthritis. You can do sciatic stretching, apply heat or ice packs, and exercise good posture to improve your health. If it remains, see an orthopedist for additional tests and therapy solutions.

For the past 5 days I have severe pain in my neck and hand. Now the neck pain has subsided, but the pain of hand are still severe. The pain is in the veins. No medicine is working. Why is this happening?
Male | 36
The clogged veins in your hand are responsible for the pain which you are feeling. It may be the case if the distance between your collarbone and the first rib is short. For this, you can start with your posture and take it slow with stretching exercises. When the pain persists see an orthopedist for more tests and treatments.

Lower back pain due to a herniated disk can cause pain in the lower abdomen and testicles. Get medical attention for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, medications, and, in severe cases, surgery. Avoid self diagnosis and consult an orthopedic for personalized care.

A fracture is a small crack in the bone. You may experience pain, swelling, and difficulty walking on that leg. Fractures result from accidents or falls. To help, rest your leg, ice it to reduce swelling, and use crutches if needed. Get advice from an orthopedist for further care and healing.

Surgery side issues are normal. Symptoms like ache, swell, red, or warm may appear. Infection, poor healing, or other troubles could cause them. Rest, ice application, and doctor instructions are advised. If the condition worsens or intensifies, a surgeon check-up is crucial.

Can I use stationary cycle for rehabilitation of fractured patella after 80 days of surgery
Male | 44
Your knee feels stiff after surgery. Your bone heals slowly. Using a cycle helps strengthen your knee. You can ride slowly without pain. Yet be careful not to hurt yourself again. Follow your doctor's advice at all times. Cycling improves your movement while keeping safe.

My uric acid is 10.7 ....I have severe pain on my right feet
Male | 39
Your uric acid level of 10.7 is quite high and can cause severe pain, especially in the feet, which is often a sign of gout. It’s important to avoid foods high in purines like red meat and seafood and drink plenty of water. Visit a rheumatologist, who specializes in treating gout and joint-related conditions, for proper treatment and guidance.

Thumb movement is not properly. F waves absent
Male | 26
The fact that you cannot move your thumb properly and feel like your thumb and other fingers are being brought together all the time may imply that either the nerves were injured when the accident first occurred or when it was being operated upon. These findings need to be shared with the orthopedist or a neurologist.
