Toe Nail Rip: Bandage or Open Wound for Healing?
my toe nail got ripped off im using bandage on it should i avoid bandage to leave it open ?
Joint Replacement Surgeon
Answered on 11th Sept '24
A toenail injury sounds unpleasant. Ripping off a nail may lead to pain and bleeding. Bandaging helps keep the area clean, or leaving it uncovered if bleeding is minimal. Cleanliness prevents infection. However, if severe pain, redness, or swelling occurs, seeking medical attention is wise.

My son has had a snowmobile accident that removed his bicep and the other small muscle on the front of his dominant hand. The ulnar and radial nerve are functional after the initial surgery. He is in the anchorage hospital. But wants the best care and treatment to gain as much use back from his arm as possible. Would he benefit from being moved to a level 1 trauma center from where he is at. Also he wants as rapid of treatment in the healing as possible.

The functioning nerves following the procedure are promising. Relocating him to a trauma facility could benefit recovery, as they focus on treating severe injuries. Immediate care is crucial for optimal healing. The trauma center offers specialized treatment, therapies, and resources for the best possible outcome.

I’m curious how much this usually cost, I have pre existing sprain or slight tears as well. That I’m sure this or stem cells else where could fix. I’m just looking for a ball park range since insurance won’t convert it
Male | 31
It is difficult to estimate the cost without knowing the severity of your injury and the treatment required. You can also visit hospitals that provide stem cell therapy and discuss your options with the specialists and getting a detailed cost breakdown, insurance coverage before proceeding with any treatment.

You are suffering from knee pain due to the fall from a CD a long time ago. It is not unusual for knee injuries to be the cause of pain in later stages. The knee pain can be due to either arthritis or damage to the knee joint. The right way to strengthen your knees is to do exercises and keep your weight in shape so that you do not bother them too much. The chilly game and the painkillers that one can easily buy at the pharmacy are also helpful. If the pain persists, you better visit an orthopedist for a more thorough examination and treatment.

Male | 65
If your belly feels upset after taking medicine for leg pain, that's normal. Nausea and tiredness can occur due to certain drugs. When you consume lunch and feel ill, your body reacts to the medication. Ensure hydrating well and eating smaller, lighter meals until you feel better.

I am 82 year old female who was hit in the right shoulder by a waitres in the dining room where I live. The shoulder is dislocated and the current doctor I saw said the ball is small so it will keep coming out so he did nothing except order some physical therapy to help strengthen muscles in the area. My arm is losing strength and I I am having trouble even getting dressed using that arm. Who can I see to get a second opinion as to what to do to solve this problem.
Female | 82
Your dislocated shoulder seems challenging, and arm struggles are tough. Since your current doctor didn't help enough, seek an orthopedic specialist's expertise. They specialize in assessing shoulder issues and recommending treatments. The right treatment can improve strength and relieve pain.

You should clean the wound properly, bandage it with a clean piece of cloth then visit a dermatologist if there is no change. Oral antibiotics are usually prescribed to be taken as prescribed. To prevent future occurrences, make sure that you keep that place clean too.

I am a 13 year old boy I am 245 pounds and my back of my hip hurts a lot I don't know why I try getting up and I can't I want to know how to stop the pain.
Male | 13
If you're experiencing hip pain, a common cause between ages 10 and 20 is slipped capital femoral epiphysis, where the thigh bone affects the growth plate near the hip joint. This can cause pain in the hip, thigh, or knee. To relieve the pain, rest, avoid activities that worsen it, apply ice, and take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen as advised by an orthopedist.

Hi my Name is Neo am 22 years I have a problem Saturday night I got a knocked on a car door Sunday I experienced pains on my penis now it’s swollen nd it changed where am it’s bruised the skin is getting shinny.
Male | Neo
It seems like you might have hurt your penis while you got hit by the car door. Pain, swelling, and bruising are not unusual in this case. The glossy skin could be a sign of recovery. Make sure you get some rest, wear loose-fitting clothes, and use ice packs to bring down any swelling. If these symptoms get worse or do not improve it would be best to see a doctor as soon as possible.

I m suffering from sciatica pain for the last 5 months. No relief after physiotherapy, pain killers and stretching exercises. What to do now?
Female | 73
Sciatica is usually caused by pressure on the sciatic nerve. The result could be sharp pain down the leg. In case physiotherapy, pain medications, and stretching exercises have been ineffective, a change to other treatment methods such as epidural steroid injections, acupuncture, or surgery should be considered. Be sure to bring these treatments up with an orthopedist for the best plan to follow.

LEFT SIDE SHOULDER TO ELBOW PAIN
Male | 28
When your arm aches from the left shoulder down to the elbow, take notice of the signs. You may struggle moving it. Swelling and redness could appear. Certain movements worsen the pain. Muscle strain, rotator cuff injury, or arthritis can cause such discomfort. To ease the hurting, rest your arm. Apply ice packs. Do gentle stretches. Avoid heavy lifting too. Activities making pain worse are off-limits. Sometimes physical therapy helps. Medications can help. Consult an orthopedist about your symptoms for personalized guidance.

What is best treatment for ACL disturb from shoulder sife
Male | 44
Your shoulder issue seems like a rotator cuff injury. Pain rises when you lift your arm or reach overhead. You feel weakness in the shoulder area too. It gets tough to move your arm in certain ways. Resting is key for healing. Physical therapy helps strengthen shoulder muscles. If the injury is bad, surgery may be required. Don't do things that make pain worse. Visit an orthopedist for full recovery.
