Answered on 27th May '24
Osteoarthritis is a condition that can cause pain and stiffness in your joints. The tissues that cushion your joints wear away, leading to this problem. Sometimes it may be due to old age, an injury, or obesity. You can do low-impact exercises such as walking or swimming to relieve the pain. Alternatively, apply ice packs or use heating pads on the affected area. Furthermore, purchasing footwear with proper arch support may also alleviate discomfort.

there is a lump on my calves i’d like to know what is that
Female | 16
This might be caused by a muscle knot or cyst developing whenever a muscle tightens or a sac fills with fluid. When you touch it, you may feel pain, tenderness, or no symptoms at all. It is important to use warm compresses, massage gently, and perform stretch exercises. If the situation doesn’t improve, seek medical advice for further assessment from an orthopedist

Recently one of my fingers was cut off due to a bike accident. I have undergone plastic surgery on the finger and an iron wire has been stuck on it, but why does my hand look small?
Female | 27
It is common to see that a hand looks smaller because of the swelling and the other tissues that are nearby. Muscles may also shrink. As the healing time goes by, this can improve and the hand may return to its normal size. You can help speed up the recovery process if you try such movements and undergo physical therapy. Keep physical activity within the limits of your orthopedist's advice.

Female | 35
Leg stiffness when walking despite improved eating habits, and exercise, could be due to worsened inflammation, muscle tightness, nerve irritation, or joint problems. I would advice you to consult with a orthopedic professional for a proper diagnosis and tailored treatment for you..

Legs are not work accident cases
Male | 28
If your legs feel weak, painful, or swollen after a work accident, get help right away. Work injuries can affect your leg muscles, bones, or nerves. Don't wait – rest, apply ice, keep your legs elevated, and visit an orthopedist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

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 suffering from spine tb. And my doctor advised to take medication for one year and it's going to end this month. But my back still pains and before the diagnosis it used to pain intolerablely. So what can be its reasons. Do I have to take more medication and did my situation improve or deteriorate. I just wanted the provable advice for this. Since there are no reports I feel that the suggestion or probability won't be sure.
Female | 21
Spine TB can lead to lasting discomfort due to spinal damage. Your ongoing pain could stem from infection or harm before treatment started. It's crucial to discuss these symptoms with your doctor for potential further evaluation or care. Additional therapy may help alleviate the issue, so don't fret - schedule a follow-up visit soon.

I’m 63 years old diabetic and suffering from lumbar pain and some related problems arises I have taken treatment from orthopedist since 1 year but it has been raised.
Male | 63
You have lower back pain, despite seeing a specialist for a year. Back troubles come from many causes: age, diabetes, overexerting yourself. Doctors use MRIs to find out why. Managing the discomfort involves easy workouts, good posture, medicines. But listen to your doctor first.

Hello, I had a pain in my right side since last Tuesday night. I went to the urgent care and they did bloodwork, urine sample, and examined me. She said she think it’s a pulled muscle. I still have the pain. It radiates down my leg too
Female | 21
You may have a muscle strain or herniation in the lumbar region of the spine. My advice would be that you have to opt for an orthopedic specialist or a neurosurgeon for a final diagnosis. The doctor can suggest an imaging test such as an MRI or CT scan.

How to increas disk space between L5 and S1
Female | 21
There is lesser space between the L5 and S1 vertebrae which contributes to back pain and leg pain. This is mainly due to aging or a slipped disc. You can create more room by strengthening your core muscles that support the spine. Additionally, proper posture and regular physical activity are important in relieving the pressure on these vertebrae. You can also visit an orthopedist for further treatment.

Hi Doctor, I had a minor accident from bike due to which my left shoulder is impacted. Its been 4 days i dont have a smooth movement of my left shoulder as i'm trying to raise hand and bring it down experiencing pain on rotator cuff. There is no pain if hand is still and not in motion....What do you suggest doctor I shoulder do
Female | 42
The pain that you feel during the motion is likely to be a result of strain or edema in the muscles or tendons that encircle the joint. When it happens in the shoulder, ice the area and take an over-the-counter medication such as aspirin or ibuprofen. Progressively introduce gentle workouts that at the same time help your functional mobility and reduce pain. You can consult an orthopedist.

I am 23year women,I have 1.6y baby. since 1 week I was facing knee pain, some it's gone but again come, Also I see my period not start, it's 1day late
Female | 23
You seem affected by knee discomfort, yet solutions exist if we collaborate. Numerous factors like trauma, excessive strain, or joint inflammation often contribute. Additionally, menstrual delays can influence bodily functions. Applying warmth locally might alleviate symptoms temporarily. However, if the issue continues, go to an orthopedist.

There's been swelling in my legs after the treatment; what should I do about it?
Female | 60
If you notice any swelling in your legs after treatment, you must do so. Swelling can occur due to fluid build-up or blood flow changes. In some instances, medications may also be the culprits. While sitting, be sure to elevate your legs and avoid standing for too long. Going around can also aid. Should the swelling continue or the worsening of it be the case, be sure to inform an orthopedist immediately.

I am 25 years old and from few days I am feeling like my hand is getting swollen when I wash utensils and it gets numb and feels like my hand is soaking water
Female | 25
It seems you may have the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. This occurs when a nerve in your wrist gets squeezed, making your hand swell and become numb. Washing up may be aggravating it. When you feel like this, you should try to take regular breaks while doing tasks. You could also use a wrist splint to help keep your hand in a better position. If these steps don’t relieve the problem, then it would be a good idea to talk to a orthopedist for more advice.

i’m an 18 year old female i’ve had shoulder pain for 7-8 months ever since a truck hood fell on me it’s cause serious pain and otc medication doesn’t help. i’ve gotten scans but no results back yet.
Female | 18
This may occur due to torn muscles or because the tendons gained injuries. Unrelenting pain might require more therapeutic medications, such as physiotherapy, and it can also go to surgery if the scan shows the result. You took the right path first to have the scans done. Take breaks ask for help, and visit an orthopedist.
