It's good that your kid's leg healed from the break. After the cast comes off, walking right may be hard. That happens because the leg muscles get weaker when in a cast. Have him walk more daily. Given time, he should play football or cycle normally again. Massaging his leg gently might help strengthen those muscles. If walking still troubles him, see an orthopedist.

Knee pain mild reduction in tibio-femoral joint space
Female | 50
Near the knee area, the space between the thigh bone and the shin bone can sometimes become slightly less due to various factors. This can happen because of an injury, arthritis, or natural wear and tear. Symptoms may include pain, stiffness, and restricted mobility. For recovery, rest, ice, simple exercises, and sometimes medication can help. It is important to visit an orthopedist for a proper examination and treatment plan.

My sister met with and accident in oct 23, brain surgery (right side) was done and now her left hand (elbow joint) is not moving. Doctor said there is calcification in elbow joint. And surgery is also complicated. Physiotherapy also is not useful.
Female | 20
The calcification problem may occur when the elbow joint becomes the cause. The relative may have experienced either damage or inflammation and thus begins to notice a calcification disorder in the joint. The surgery may not be a simple one for sure. Always consult the doctors in charge of West to understand how to handle the treatment issues.

Hi, about one month ago i was doing yoga and while doing Surya namaskar my left leg knee got twisted little badly i went to the nearest dispensary. They prescribed some medicine and didn't say much. I also applied some oil for pain relief and used crap bandage. It felt fine after 7-8 days. Now recently i went for trekking and there my same leg slipped now I'm having little discomfort in knee so should I go to doctor and do some x-ray or it will be fine.
Female | 26
I'm not a doctor, but if you experienced a knee injury that still causes discomfort after a month, it might be a good idea to seek medical attention. It's possible that the initial injury did not fully heal, and the recent slip during trekking may have exacerbated the problem. You should consider seeing an orthopedic doctor or an orthopedic specialist.

Female | 23
These symptoms could stem from various factors like muscle overexertion, improper posture maintained over time, or certain medical conditions. Seeking specialized medical guidance becomes crucial to identify the root cause and receive appropriate treatment. Consulting a rheumatologist or an orthopedist, experts in managing such ailments is advisable. They possess the knowledge to recommend specific exercises, physical therapy routines, or suitable medication to alleviate your discomfort and promote healing.

Since past 2 days suffering through left leg pain with severe hip pain that's also in left side
Female | 17
Your left leg and hip may be bothering you. Pain in both of those places could be caused by something such as sciatica, which is a nerve problem. Another reason might be muscle strain or arthritis. You should rest the area that hurts, put some ice on it, and if it’s bearable, gently stretch. If this doesn’t help, you should see an orthopedist.

Looking for a acl reconstruction surgery for my right knee.., torn acl ligament while playing soccer.
Male | 33
The anterior cruciate ligament stabilizes your knee. When it rips, knee pain, swelling, and instability happen. To repair this injury, ACL reconstruction surgery fixes it. To know more about this procedure and to get your surgery, kindly visit an orthopedist.

Waking up with pins and needles, muscle cramps, shaking pain, and cold sensations on your thighs can be symptoms of Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). RLS triggers a tickling sensation and the urge to move your legs. To manage these symptoms, try gentle exercises, and warm baths, and ensure you get enough good sleep. Specific medications may also help. It's important to contact an orthopedist who can diagnose and suggest the right treatment for these issues.

Got injured sacroillzc jojnt ligaments, suffering from dysfunctiong, rdgarding fusion of si joint
Female | 49
Although sacroiliac joint dysfunction is usually considered to be the source of lower back and/or leg pain, it can be difficult to diagnose. When the normal mobility of the sacroiliac joint, which joins the triangular bone at the bottom of the spine (the sacrum) to the pelvic, is interrupted, it can produce pain.
• More specifically, sacroiliac joint pain can be caused by either too much or too little movement. Because they can feel so similar, leg pain caused by sacroiliac joint dysfunction might be difficult to distinguish from radiating leg pain caused by lumbar disc herniation (sciatica). The most common causes of SI joint dysfunction are excessive or insufficient mobility.
• Excessive movement in the sacroiliac joint (hypermobility or instability) can make the pelvis feel unstable and result in pain.
• Excessive mobility generates pain in the lower back and/or hip that can spread into the groin, whereas lack of movement (hypomobility or fixation) causes muscle tension, discomfort, and a loss in mobility.
Consult an Orthopedist for further investigations and treatment.

I fell down and hurt my frontal and side right ankle and foot. I used ice and keep my foot elevated. Underwent xray showing normal report. Took Hifenac MR and applied Systaflam Gel on the area. Pain has reduced but still sometimes I feel pain while walking. Swelling has reduced but still there. I feel pressure and heaviness on calf muscles and back of thigh area. Kindly suggest.
Female | 32
There is a chance of soft tissue injury resulting in pain, swelling, pressure, and heaviness. I advise to see orthopedist for detailed examination with subsequent treatment plan. You are suggested to elevate and ice the part that is hurting and avoid the activities that worsen the symptoms.

I am having pain in my right bum bone area and its affecting me when i walk. The pain is sharp and throbbing and sometime its making my leg and knees weak. but i have also missed my period but having cramps could this be related. I have drank celecoxib and cocodamol tablets but no relief. What could be wrong with me. I am 26 years old and and 5'9 in height
Female | 26
The pain, leg, and knee weakness, missed period, and cramping might be linked to sciatica, a condition where a nerve in your lower back is pressed, causing pain to radiate down your leg and potentially affecting your menstrual cycle. While celecoxib and co-codamol can help with pain, it's important to consult an orthopedist for a thorough check-up and accurate diagnosis.

Sir have pain in left knee It was showing as acl sprain and Hyper Lesion on pcl then it mention as gamglion
Female | Ranganayagi
Your symptoms – pain, an ACL sprain – suggest one thing: there’s been some injury there. Hyperextension of the PCL or even just having a ganglion cyst could also cause trouble with movement and make things uncomfortable in general. But don’t worry – rest up that joint, apply some ice on it, and listen to whatever the doctor says needs doing.

I have pain in the inside of my legs for a week and a half and it hurts whenever I put pressure on it.
Female | 14
If you're experiencing pain on the inside of your legs that worsens with pressure, it could be due to muscle strain, adductor tendinitis, groin hernia, or nerve impingement. It would be best to consult with a healthcare professional for an evaluation, diagnosis, and appropriate treatment.

Muscle strain, poor posture, nerve compression, or underlying medical conditions can cause pain in the neck & shoulders. Some cases may not be serious and can be attributed to minor issues like muscle tension. Consult an orthopedic for diagnosis.

Which is the best implant for Hip Arthroplasty for a 50-year-old person. What is the cost of it?
As per my understanding you want to know which types of implant is best for hip arthroplasty. There are mainly two types of surgeries. Total hip replacement (also called total hip arthroplasty), in which the damaged bone and cartilage is removed and replaced with prosthetic components. The other type of surgery is hemiarthroplasty, which involves replacing half of the hip joint hip resurfacing and hip replacement. The choice of implant depends on the type of surgery. Consult an orthopedic - Best Orthopedic Doctor in India, who will help you to decide on the type of surgery required by the patient, and also the implant. Hope our answer helps you.

Hi I’m nafisa 24 yrs old I have back pain at right side through the chest it’s light muscle stain when I try to move I’m feeling it I have last 4 days
Female | 24
You likely have a muscle strain on your back's right side. It's causing chest pain. Muscle strains happen when you move stressfully. You'll feel pain while moving. Rest up. Ice the area. Take over-the-counter pain meds if needed. Try gentle stretches. Avoid activities worsening the pain. If it doesn't improve or worsens, see an orthopedist

I am a 17 year old female with a diagnosis of bertalottis syndrome which I take co-codamol 8/500 and an anti inflammatory for. For about 2 years I've been experiencing chronic pain in my wrists, knees, ankles and elbows. The pain is usually about a 3/4 usually and its an achey/strong pain but it often gets more intense like a flare up where it can go from a 6-10 where I am unable to move the affected body part.
Female | 17
You may face issues linked to Bertolotti's syndrome. Dealing with ongoing pain in various joints is not unusual with this condition. The achy, intense ache you describe, coupled with flare-ups, is a frequent symptom. Collaborating closely with an orthopedist to investigate diverse treatment choices that could enhance symptom management remains crucial. Exercising and physical therapy may prove advantageous too.
