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.

I am 30 year's old male and have back pain for last 1 month i already used pain relief medicine and other orthopedic medicine ointment cream couple of weeks but haven't got any relief what should i do

Male | 30

It appears that you have been having long-term discomfort, which may come from the muscles being strained, bad posture, or in some cases unwelcome health issues. If non-prescription cures don't work, I advise participating in modified bounding and muscle exercises that aid in your back's recovery. Relaxing with the help of warm or cool packs has also proven to be an effective method of pain reduction. Nevertheless, it is essential to see an orthopedist for a thorough examination.

We need to evaluate your shoulder. Depending on clinical examination findings, you will need X-ray / MRI

Back pain can occur for several reasons like muscle strain from improper posture or lifting heavy things wrong. Other times it can be a symptom of a more serious problem. Try using hot or cold packs on the area, gentle stretching, and taking it easy for a bit first. If the pain persists or gets worse, it's wise to get it checked by an orthopedist to find out what's the matter.
