1 Answer
Dr. Pramod Bhor

Joint Replacement Surgeon

Answered on 29th Jan '25

The cost of lengthening surgery for the femur typically ranges from $20,000 to $100,000, depending on various factors such as the surgical technique used and the facility. When considering both the femur and fibula, expenses could be higher. Performing surgeries in these areas simultaneously is possible, which may save time and reduce recovery periods. It's essential to consult with an experienced orthopedic surgeon to discuss your specific needs, underlying conditions, and the best approach to achieving your goals safely. They will provide tailored recommendations and support throughout your journey.

I am experincing upper neck ,back and chest pain since 3 years. I experience it everytime I get stressed.

Male | 26

Stress can make your neck, back, and chest muscles feel tight and painful. When stressed, your muscles tense up, causing discomfort. Remember to take breaks, breathe deeply, sit up straight, and try gentle stretches or a massage to relax tense muscles.

Hey, what I’d like to check is what the implications are that I seem to have symptoms developing after having the first vaccine. The bite mark has swelled and is itchy/prickly. The muscles in the affected leg feel tired and heavy. Might be totally unrelated but I woke up today with the hamstring in the other leg feeling pulled, I don’t think I was doing anything that would pull it. Facts are - I was lightly bitten by a wild dog on the evening of the 15th. By noon of the 16th I had the vaccine (Rabivax-S). Since then the symptoms above have appeared around the bite mark.

Female | 25

Swelling and itching near the bite, tired legs, and muscle heaviness are likely due to the dog bite and the vaccine. Your body might be overreacting to the vaccine. The hamstring pain in the other leg may not be related to the bite or vaccine. Use cold compresses and OTC antihistamines for itching and pain. Rest your legs and avoid physical activity to ease fatigue. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor. Ensure rabies prevention by following your doctor’s advice.

I have a ingrowing nail. Just an hour ago i feel my feet like weird and my leg feels lime a tendon has been pulled

Female | 44

It looks like you may have an ingrown toenail. When a toenail grows into the skin instead of over it, it can cause pain, redness, and swelling. Sometimes, it can make your whole foot feel funny or like a tendon is pulled. To help with this, soak your foot in warm soapy water and gently raise the nail. If it’s really sore, see a podiatrist for help.

I have knee issues and wanted to know when I want to go to bed if wearing diapers is a good idea or not

Male | 31

At night, it can be difficult to get to the bathroom due to knee pain, making it hard to get up, and accidents might happen. However, this is not a solution for the knee condition itself, but it can help manage the issue until the knee improves. Always consult your doctor to find the best treatment option for your knee problems.

I am abhishek yadav.my problem is Acl partial tear. I am Indian army.can I running as before after surgery.and how many cost of surgery and how many time after complete recovery

Male | 27

Acupuncture points help in rehabilitation of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) . Using the local and distal points in acupuncture, it helps in repair of ligaments and reduces the rehabilitation time.
Acupuncture combined with seed and magnet therapy, moxibustion have miraculously helped in treating ACL tear naturally I.e without surgery.
One can lead a normal life once a patient is pain free.
The treatment time depends on the severity of the patient but nonetheless 12- 15 sessions will be required which will help reduce the pain and repair the ligament. Further course of treatment can be advised post the knee scan.

Suffering from a disc bulge leads to back or neck pain, which radiates into the arms or legs. To address this, consult an orthopedist, who will diagnose the condition through physical examination and imaging tests. Treatment options range from taking rest, physical therapy, and medication or surgery in severe cases.
