Why does my achilles tendon hurt after running?
Orthopedist
Answered on 23rd May '24
Achilles tendinitis is caused by repetitive or intense strain on the Achilles tendon, the band of tissue that connects your calf muscles to your heel bone. This tendon is used when you walk, run, jump or push up on your toes.
The structure of the Achilles tendon weakens with age, which can make it more susceptible to injury — particularly in people who may participate in sports only on the weekends or who have suddenly increased the intensity of their running programs.

Hello doctor I am currently on fluoxetine 40mg since last 2 years Yesterday i had a small accident and my hand is aching a lot My physician has prescribed 50mg tramadol But i have read on google that tramadol and fluoxetine cannot be taken together Please help what to do??
Male | 25
Although fluoxetine and tramadol are both related to chemical levels in the brain, it is still not safe to mix them. In other words, their simultaneous consumption can intensify the likelihood of serotonin syndrome, a critical ailment that manifests symptoms such as confusion, sweating, and fast heartbeat. The best course of action would be for your physician to advise you on alternative pain relief options that are safe for you.

Occasionally, patients may develop new symptoms or complications following spinal fusion surgery even after a few years. The nature and intensity of symptoms are highly variable in the case of different factors including age, life-style or overall health. It is also advisable to watch for any changes and consult a spine specialist. In this case, the best doctor to visit should be a neurologist or an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in spinal disorders.

Foot got twist and now its swelling need medicine name
Male | 35
You might have twisted or sprained your foot. Swelling is part of your body's natural selection to help the hurting area. You are likely to reduce the pain and swelling by taking over-the-counter drugs like ibuprofen. Do not forget to rest the foot, elevate it, and apply ice. If the pain is increasing or there's no improvement, examine an orthopedist for more information.

Tibia and fibila frecture
Male | 29
Tibia and fibula fractures involve broken lower leg bones. Pain, swelling, and inability to move the leg characterize symptoms. Falls or accidents commonly cause these injuries. Treatment involves casts or surgical repair of bones. Ice, rest, and leg elevation help relieve pain and swelling. Recovering full strength and mobility often requires physical therapy.

Pain in buttock continuously, like irritation, sometime when I sit suddenly pain starts and also pain in poo.
Male | 19
You might be encountering something known as sciatica. The sciatic nerve becomes compressed and causes pain from your lower back down through your buttocks into one or both legs. Sometimes sitting for too long or sudden movements can trigger this. You can try doing some gentle stretches, not sitting down all day, and using heat packs on the area that hurts. If nothing changes after doing these things then it would be best to go see an orthopedic.

Sir, I got a small lump under the nail part above my big toe and it’s little paining . I met an orthopedic doctor. He said uric acid may be high. I had a uric acid test done and it was 4.83 mg/dL. If you ask if those values are normal, the doctor says that you should use Febumin-80 tablet. I don't understand anything. Please tell me what should I do. Can you please explain my situation to me. Thank you
Male | 32
Gout happens when uric acid builds up. It can cause pain, swelling, and redness. Your uric acid level is slightly high at 4.83 mg/dL. The doctor prescribed Febumin-80 tablets to lower it. Follow their advice closely. Watch what you eat to manage gout.

I have a cousin. He has a condition that no doctor has been able to detect, all the tests he has done so far says he's completely fine, but he doesn't look that way since he has an abnormally big arm. The arm has an irregular shape. It's like clump of fats starting from his shoulder (which is also abnormally big) to his elbow. It stops there. I did hear that at one time it reduced, but now it's growing bigger. It's not that the arm is just big, it is abnormal and won't stop growing.
Male | 16
Your cousin has developed lipoma, which is a harmless tumor made of fat cells. This may lead to the development of a bulging out of some parts of the body, for example, the arm. Generally, lipomas do not bring any complications but may sometimes increase in size with time. If the lipoma is bothering you or affecting your movement, surgery may be a way to get rid of it. It is ideal to seek the advice of an orthopedist for exact diagnosis and treatment.

Male | 42
Based on your symptoms it seems that you might have a Klinefelter syndrome which can lead to undescended testes and joint pain. Executed in males who have an extra X chromosome. The inability to grow facial hair, the development of male breasts, and the trouble to concentrate are also other frequent conditions. So, it's crucial to consult an endocrinologist for the correct diagnosis and treatment which may include hormone therapy and pain management strategies for this condition.

Male | 12
Your child could have congenital scoliosis - a curved spine. This happens due to abnormal growth before birth. Symptoms are uneven shoulders, or hips. In some cases, a brace helps. But surgery may be needed if the curve is severe. Make sure to see a pediatric orthopedic specialist. They'll discuss the best treatment options for your child's spine.

i can't move my wrist and arm i think its broken
Female | 15
Falling can cause your arm to break. Bones may crack from an impact, accident, or heavy blow, leading to pain and swelling. Moving the arm becomes challenging. At the hospital, doctors will examine X-rays to identify the fracture. Treatment varies: some breaks can be stabilized with a cast, while more severe breaks may require surgery. Seeking medical care from an orthopedist is crucial to ensure the bone heals properly.

Male | 23
Seeing an orthopedist and getting a full diagnosis and a treatment plan is the first thing I would advise you to do for the TFCC injury. The specialist would probably issue a script for painkillers, immobilization, and/or physiotherapy and surgery only if the damage is severe.

Recently I started doing yoga again, and ive immediately been reminded why i stopped before. Basically some stretches feel fine, like once in the sides of my torso. But some other stretches i feel nothing at all, like if i put my soles together i can keep my knees fully on the floor and lie all the way forward and still feel absolutely no stretch, this is what most stretches feel like. But then some other stretches hurt WAYY to much, most importantly my hamstrings, i cannot lean even a bit forward with my legs straight and it already hurts like heck. I have no improvement in my hamstrings when doing more "gentle" yoga stretches, but then when i tried pushing myself a bit more in stretching my hamstrings, it would start hurting in my knees so much when i walked, almost like a pop or click with every step. Recently i considered the possibility of possibly being hypermobile, i can put my pinky fingers 90 degrees up, i can reach my wrists with my thumbs and i can do that thing where i lock my hands together behind my back and can put them over my head without letting go. I also get a strange uncomfortableness/awareness in my joints sometimes, not even a pain just uncomfortable. So basically my question is, do you think im hypermobile? and if so how (if possible) can i still do stretches/yoga without either feeling nothing or feeling intense pains? And is there any way i can get rid of the uncomfortableness in my joints?
Female | 19
It sounds like you may be hypermobile, which means your joints can move more than usual. You might have less stretch during yoga or feel intense pain in some stretches as symptoms. Instead of pushing too hard when stretching, focus on gentle moves for flexibility because this can help protect your joints. Also, make sure not to do any position that causes discomfort or hurts.
