Why is my knee hurting and swollen?
I am 17 years old female. A heavy metal object fell on my knee which caused bruising. I didn't have any pain after that but then in June my knee started to hurt for a few days. The pain was mild. Then in September the pain came back and it was worse. My knee had swelled up a bit, my knee was popping and it hurt continuously for 3 weeks. After that my knee pain calmed down a bit but it has been hurting mildly continuously since then.

Sounds to me like you've somehow injured your knee, which can trigger swelling in the knee, pain, and the popping of the joint. The first impact might cause an internal shift, due to which your symptoms might be explained. Advisably, you should stop addressing your knee; in such cases, the application of ice cubes will, no doubt, help diminish swelling, and finally, resting your leg a little higher might be helpful. Analgesia drugs, such as those bought without any prescription may also, be of some use, but much stress must be given to the examinations of an orthopedist. They can examine your knee in detail and advise on treatments that will help you improve.

Leg ankle heavy pain and swelling
Female | 25
An injury like a sprain, strain, or inflammation might be the culprit. Resting your leg, keeping it elevated, applying ice, and taking over-the-counter pain meds are crucial steps. If the pain and swelling persist, it's wise to consult an orthopedist.

I am 33 years old male and have some shawaling (सूजन) problem in my left knee Last night, I have used pain relief ointment cream.But no any relief . what should I do now.
Male | 33
Swelling is the outcome of many reasons like injury, overuse, and also arthritis. Since the pain relief cream didn't help, try using an ice pack on your knee for 15-20 minutes a few times a day. Moreover, give your knee some rest whenever possible. If the swelling stays unchanged, you might consider consulting an orthopedist for more tests.

Groin pain can come from different sources like a muscle strain or hernia. To find out the right one, an orthopedist might recommend your tests like an ultrasound or MRI. These tests are to look through your body and find the exact problem. After the diagnosis is made, the doctor can recommend the right therapy, which may consist of physical therapy or surgery.

I have left knee meniscus pain leftknee right side pain how to reduce pain walk na i have pain steps down na pain pls tell me sir how many days reduce pain
Female | 28
Pain on the outer side of your left knee could be due to a meniscus tear. The meniscus is a wedge of cartilage in your knee, and when it's torn, it can cause swelling. For pain relief, try to avoid activities that make it worse, like walking and climbing stairs. Resting your knee, applying ice, and taking over-the-counter pain medicines can help. However, if the pain continues for several days or worsens, visit an orthopedist.

Functional infection pain swelling thum and hand
Female | 40
Dealing with throbbing and swelling in your thumb and hand can come about due to numerous reasons such as over, injury, or even inflammatory disease. Symptoms like those are usually pain, difficulties in carrying out your daily tasks, and visible swelling. One way to relax painful symptoms may be to give time to the painful area, cool it with ice, and raise the hand above the head to diminish the swelling. Painkillers that are available over the counter can also be consulted. Nevertheless, if the indications continue to be present or get worse, it is vital to ask for an orthopedist's advice.

I think i have pectus excavatum i have a 2.6-2.7 cm concave chest i do not have problem in breathing but i think it might cause problem in future
Male | 17
Pectus excavatum is when your chest sinks inward. It happens because of how your ribs and breastbone develop. Although breathing troubles can happen, you said you're okay there, which is good. To keep an eye on things, talking to an orthopedist is wise. They can suggest the best approach for managing your condition.

I am 55 year old male...had my spinal cord operation 2 and half years back , at first it was little easy for me but now I'm in a continuous pain at neck and feels like it's contracting the whole portion leading to imbalance in my body...and causing severe pain , why so !?
Male | 55
The neck pain and a feeling of tightness could have originated from a multitude of causes such as muscle strain, compression of nerves, or the issue that you had surgery for. It is helpful to engage in light stretching and strengthening workouts that target your neck and upper back. Besides, I advise you to have a detailed conversation with an orthopedist for a proper individualized treatment plan.

Hello, I had a partial tear in the patellar tendon in the right knee. The doctor gave me a belt to stabilize the leg, which was loose for more than a month. At the appointment, he said that the tear had healed without me taking an x-ray. He sent me to physical rehabilitation to do the classes. My question is, can I walk without that belt and crutch? To strengthen the thigh muscle
ذكر | 38
Your kneecap tendon has healed, which is great! If you feel unsure about walking without support, that's normal. It's important to start slowly and listen to your body. If you experience any discomfort, continue using a knee brace or crutches. As you grow stronger and more stable, gradually reduce your reliance on them.
