Bony Lump on Left Shoulder: Causes and Treatment
Why do I have a bony lump on top of my left shoulder?

Orthopaedic Surgery
Answered on 25th Sept '24
That bony lump is likely an "acromial spur." It happens from wear and tear on your shoulder joint. You might feel pain when moving your arm or raising it up high. To help with discomfort, try gentle shoulder exercises. Also, apply ice to reduce swelling. If the pain continues, see a physiotherapist for guidance. They can advise on ways to manage the condition.

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.

Back and neck pain can have various causes, including poor posture, muscle strain, injuries, degenerative conditions, and stress. Consult with a specialist for personalized recommendations for treating your pain. In the meantime trypracticing good posture, gentle stretching exercises, applying heat or cold packs, and stress management techniques may offer some relief.

27 years old and currently I'm feeling sever left Neck pain which worse during sitting for long periods to read and feel cracking sound when I press my Left neck! I have no family history of CA! My mother once reported to have Increased Thyroid stimulating hormone but it is not significant
Male | 27
In this case, prolonged sitting in one position and repetitive neck movements can serve as the causes. The popping is now attributed to the presence of air bubbles in the joints. It's very nice that you don't have a family background of cancer. If you can, do gentle neck exercises along with stretching. You may also use heat or ice for relief. If the pain still does not go away, you can look for an orthopedist for more help.

how can i know that my growth plate are closed or open at home
Male | 18
If you want to know if the bone line of your bone is closed or still open, you can see a doctor and get some exams done on it. Typically, if you have completed your growth spurt and there are differences in your body, it might mean closure. Among the known factors are age, hormone fluctuations, and genetics. Nevertheless, the best way to determine that is a physical examination, for instance, an X-ray that the physician can accurately interpret. If you are worried about the development or growth, I advise you to visit an orthopedist who will give you advice and the comfort of your mind by making an examination plan just for you.

I am having really bad pain in my left foot my left foot is swollen and my right foot is not swollen a little bit of fluid is coming out of my left foot and it's red and I am not able to find a doctor to help me I'm almost to the point where I want to cut my own foot off I am sick and tired of having constant pain I've been having this pain for more than a year
Female | 40
Your left foot is causing problems. There's swelling, pain, and redness. Fluid build up too. An infection could be the issue. Or an injury perhaps. Maybe even gout. The inflammation symptoms are worrying. You need help quickly. Antibiotics might help if infected. Pain medication would ease discomfort. Draining fluid may be needed too.

Why is that my waist right side is paining me that I even find it difficult to walk and I can't even stand straight but when I touch my waist I can't feel any pain but I'm rather feeling It inside me making it difficult for me to walk and I can't even stand straight
Male | 20
You may be having muscle pain on your right side. This can happen when you use your muscles too much or twist them in that part of your body. Even though it's not painful to the touch, the discomfort in your body is causing you to walk awkwardly and to stand upright. Resting, applying ice, and gentle stretching will help lessen the pain. If it doesn't improve, it's best to get the advice of a orthopedist.

Iam having severe pain above knee joint,from 5days .I can't walk properly, can't stand due to pain,why did it suddenly happened?,and iam having nervous weakness hand paining,thumb etc joints pain ,
Female | 20
The pain may be due to tendonitis, which is the inflammation of the tendons around the knee, and that might be causing the problem. On the other hand, hand and thumb joint pain might be a sign of osteoarthritis. Resting your knee, putting ice on the swelling area, and moving your hand slowly are the best home remedies for it. If nothing changes, you should consult an orthopedist.

I am 82 year old female who was hit in the right shoulder by a waitres in the dining room where I live. The shoulder is dislocated and the current doctor I saw said the ball is small so it will keep coming out so he did nothing except order some physical therapy to help strengthen muscles in the area. My arm is losing strength and I I am having trouble even getting dressed using that arm. Who can I see to get a second opinion as to what to do to solve this problem.
Female | 82
Your dislocated shoulder seems challenging, and arm struggles are tough. Since your current doctor didn't help enough, seek an orthopedic specialist's expertise. They specialize in assessing shoulder issues and recommending treatments. The right treatment can improve strength and relieve pain.

If you fell hard on your back and it still hurts badly, it's important to see a doctor as soon as possible. You should visit an orthopedic specialist who can examine you properly and recommend the best treatment. Don't ignore the pain, as it could be something serious.

i'm 19 years old and i have problem in hip they told me that i have to go under operation of total hip replacement so i was asking you to suggest me where i can go where they have good successful rate and even i was asking if my both legs will have the same length after operation couse i'm suspicious right now affected leg is smaller compared to other and if i was asking if i will walk on my own
Male | 19
Hp replacement solves issues like pain and ineffectiveness. Top hospitals for the procedure are the ones that have good results, so look for a place and hospitals that have gained a positive reputation among patients. The surgery will then make your legs more even in length and if you take care of yourself and follow the therapy programs properly, you will be able to walk on your own as before.

How should I resume physical activities 4 months after Achilles tendon surgery
Male | 41
After 4 months of Achilles tendon surgery, you can return to physical activities only with the consent of your orthopedic surgeon. You might have to begin with mild exercises and slowly intensify your exercise. Wear appropriate shoes, and always warm up before the exercise. A physiotherapist should be consulted for a smooth and successful recovery.

Female | 18
You're having a hard time with back pain and arm pain. These are signs that may be brought on by factors such as bad posture, heavy bags, or sitting in an uncomfortable position for too long. Don't forget to take a break now and then, stretch, and do some light exercises like yoga which can help alleviate the ache. Additionally, you could use a hot water bottle or take a warm bath for relief.

Hey doctor I have had this indent in my wrist from a while now and I also have pain in my wrist when I wake up in the morning and also when I bend my wrist and also when I press the dent could you please help me with this is this a serious issue, should I get it checked properly?
Male | 17
You might be experiencing a condition called carpal tunnel syndrome, which could be causing the dent in your hand and the pain you're feeling. Carpal tunnel syndrome happens when a nerve in your wrist gets compressed. It's important to have this checked by an orthopedist to confirm if carpal tunnel syndrome is the cause. They might recommend treatments like wrist splints, exercises, or, in some cases, surgery to help relieve your symptoms.

My coler bane look like block
Male | 42
It looks like you have some abrupt discomfort in your collarbone area. Perhaps you have strained muscles, an injury, or you have a wrong posture. Common symptoms are feeling painful, swollen, or restricted movement. To handle this discomfort, give a trial to the cold pack applied to the affected area and take a rest. Also doing gentle stretching may be useful. Still, after symptoms do not go away or they even become more serious, you should consult an orthopedist.
