Good morning. I was doing high jump in a school,and my leg ankle removed and got my leg a little short. Can it be resolved be straighten it and make it balanced with the other one

Male | 34

You seem to have dislocated your ankle, which can give your leg a longer impression. Such occurrences are observed when the bones in your ankle are misplaced. To correct this, you should go to an orthopedist who can put the bones back into the right place. A splint or a brace may be used by them to enable your ankle to recover properly. Adhering to their recommendations is critical if you want your leg to be straightened and aligned with your other leg. Rest, elevate your leg, and stay away from putting weight on it until you see a doctor.

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.

Male | 39

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.

Hi I need some advice on having pins removed from my kneecap.

Male | 32

Before having pins removed from your kneecap, consult your orthopedic surgeon to discuss the procedure and timing. Prepare according to their instructions. The removal is usually done under local anesthesia, involving a small incision to remove the pins. Expect some discomfort and swelling post surgery.

Is it normal to experience swelling three months post hip replacement surgery?

Male | 48

Three months after hip replacement surgery, it is not uncommon to have swelling. But in case of pain or redness connected with swelling, the orthopedic surgeon should be consulted. They might instead refer you to a joint replacement specialist for further evaluation and treatment.

Why does ac joint hurt?

Here are many things that can happen to the AC joint, but the most common conditions are arthritis, fractures and separations. Arthritis is a condition characterized by loss of cartilage in the joint, which is essentially wear and tear of the smooth cartilage that allows the bones to move smoothly. Like arthritis at other joints in the body, it is characterized by pain and swelling, especially with activity. Over time, the joint can wear out and get larger, with spurs forming around it. These spurs are a sign of the arthritis and not a cause of the pain. Reaching across the body toward the other arm aggravates arthritis at the AC joint. AC joint wear and tear is common in weight lifters, especially among those who bench press and to a lesser extent, military press. In weight lifters the arthritis at the AC joint has a special name — osteolysis.

I am suffering leg pain including knee due to my old age 63 , best possible treatment for relief. Please guide

Female | 63

As a medical expert, I suggest that you go to an orthopedist to examine your knee and leg. It is not unusual fat this age group to be hit by joint wear and tear. A orthopedic doctor will diagnose the actual reason for the pain, and will propose the most appropriate treatment, which may range from medications, physical therapy and surgery if needed.
