Answered on 23rd May '24

In the case of a hip replacement, movements that pose potential dislocation risks may include leaning forward by bending more than 90 degrees at the hip joint, sitting cross-legged or twisting inward on one’s hips.
However, it is imperative to follow the particular instructions given by your orthopedic surgeon. They can provide specific guidance on safe movements and actions to avoid dislocation that will guarantee an uneventful recovery. They play a crucial role in the post-operative recovery and rehabilitation.

My whole body is paining and I m not able to get up from bed since yesterday. And I have been having right side upper back pain. I took medication nothing is working what should I do

Female | 24

I'm sorry to hear you're feeling this way. Widespread discomfort and specific pain in your upper right back can stem from various causes, including muscle strain, stress, or inflammation. Since over-the-counter medication hasn’t alleviated your symptoms, it’s important to seek professional evaluation. I recommend resting, applying heat to the affected area, and staying hydrated. If your condition worsens or doesn’t improve, please consult a healthcare provider for a thorough assessment and tailored treatment plan. You're not alone in this, and getting proper medical attention is key to recovery.

I often have pain at the back of my knee joint when l stand for a long time.How can l get help for this?

Female | 22

Hello
You can try Acupressure for your condition which is No Medicine- No Surgery therapy.
Pain in any area is due to blockages in the meridian.
Acupressure stimulator can help release this blockage.
Slight changes in diet will help to improve your condition quickly.
Cupping is equally useful.

Female | 25

It's understandable to be concerned about persistent discomfort. Your symptoms, including back pain, numbness, and discomfort in various areas, may stem from conditions affecting the nerves, muscles, or joints. Potential causes could include muscle strain, a herniated disc, or even nerve compression. It's essential to prioritize your health by seeking a professional evaluation. A doctor can conduct necessary tests and provide a tailored treatment plan, which may include physical therapy, medication, or other supportive measures. Remember, early intervention can lead to better outcomes, so don't hesitate to reach out for medical advice. Take care!

Is the presence of fluid in the knee two years post knee replacement a cause for concern?

Male | 45

a fluid in the knee is something to worry about because it might be an infection or loosening of an implant. A visit to an orthopedic specialist is necessary so that the condition can be evaluated and suitable treatment advised. In some cases, postponing treatment may result in additional complications that will require more aggressive procedures.

I have turf toe in 1year ago I eat medicine buy in medical store and iceing But did not get relief, today I am having pain again and all this happened while playing football.

Male | 14

You could be having turf toe, which is typical when doing sports such as football. Turf toe occurs when the big toe joint is injured, and can cause pain. Symptoms are swelling, pain, and limited movement of the toe. To assist in the healing process, try to rest your foot, use ice packs, and wear supportive shoes. Ignoring the pain, and consulting with the family doctor is a better option.

The injury that you have described might be a muscle strain or a cervical nerve compression. You should consult an orthopedic doctor or a neurologist for proper diagnosis and therapy. If the pain lasts or increases, do not ignore it.
