Is my swollen ankle just a sprain or fracture?
Yesterday I was playing football ⚽️ and while playing football on ground with my friends I fall while changing direction my ankle was not rolled but still it started paining and while playing I can't feel the pain more and played for some time but after coming the pain increases I saw that my ankle was swollen and it was paining just above the bone not directly on the bone but just above it I want to clarify that it is just a sprain or fracture one more thing the pain is just above the ankle (feel most of the pain only on that area but the whole arear is equally swollen) and not spreading to whole ankle or leg

There's a chance your ankle sprain happened while playing football. Stretched or torn ligaments cause sprains. You likely have pain, swelling, and trouble moving that ankle. The pain location suggests a sprain over fracture. Avoid excess weight on it. If pain persists or worsens, see an orthopedist.

im 17 Feeling numbness and can’t feel pain only when I sit lower back it started a few days ago I can’t feel my body and when I lay down I forget to breath
Male | 17
Hey there! Those symptoms seem worrying. Numbness and not feeling pain in your lower back, plus forgetting to breathe when lying down, could mean nerve issues. A pinched nerve or poor circulation to your back may cause this. Try changing how you sit, doing gentle stretches, and consciously taking deep breaths when lying down. But, it's important to talk to an orthopedist for an exam and advice.

I am 27 years old . During a month I suffered from knee pain and pooping sound coming from there . Even I noticed sounds coming from every joint.
Male | 27
You may be suffering from crepitus, a condition involving joints made from popping or cracking sounds. When the knee or another joint, like the knee, expands, you can hear the sound. This says that sometimes air bubbles may be in the joint space. Or the Cheerios cereal-like cartilage surfaces of our bones are responsible for creating noise.

I am a 32 year old woman. The real thing is that for the past few days I have been having pain in my hand and knee and it also gets swollen.
Female | 32
These symptoms may be the result of different diseases (arthritis) or some other injury caused by overuse or fall. You should rest, apply the ice packs, and elevate your hand and knee. Stronger pain and swelling can mean the body is going through a more severe stage and you should consult an orthopedist for further advice and treatment.

My son whois 12 yrs old had fractured his rightleg two months back and his plaster was removed after 6 weeks but till now he is not able to walk properly.He takes first step and slowly slowly another step.He has no pain .Is this something to worry about?when can he play football or cycling?please help.Should I massage his leg
Male | 12
It's good that your kid's leg healed from the break. After the cast comes off, walking right may be hard. That happens because the leg muscles get weaker when in a cast. Have him walk more daily. Given time, he should play football or cycle normally again. Massaging his leg gently might help strengthen those muscles. If walking still troubles him, see an orthopedist.

In this case It's best to consult an orthopedic for detailed evaluation and treatment. Depending on the severity and type of fracture further interventions will be needed such as realignment of the bones (reduction) or surgical intervention.

The symptoms you've described, such as strong pain, cracking sounds, and limited movement in your shoulder, could be attributed to various causes like a frozen shoulder, shoulder impingement, arthritis, or other conditions.

Such pains can be caused by various factors – for instance, insufficient stretching before exercise or tension. Drink plenty of water and gently stretch the affected muscles to relieve the discomfort. Besides, seek advice from an orthopedist who will consider your personal needs.

Hi good morning sir, I daughter is suffering knee swelling & skin redness issue since yesterday. Fever also getting. Can you please suggest this and advance root cause of issue?
Female | 17 months
This could be your daughter's knee infection. If a knee has swollen up, become red and warm to touch, and there is a fever, it could be a sign of infection. This may be due to bacteria that enter the knee joint. She needs to see an orthopedist without delay. Infections can be vitally important and require the right treatment with antibiotics.

hi. i have extreme joint pain in all my joints. i have anxiety and depression too. please help me
Female | 24
Having severe pain in all joints, worries, and low mood could mean rheumatoid arthritis. This happens when your immune system fights your joints by mistake, causing swelling and pain. It's crucial to consult an orthopedist for proper tests. They'll explore treatments like medicines and counseling to control symptoms, allowing a better life quality.

I am 19 years old , female . I have TMJ problem... I don't have pain till now .. but I just have a clicking sound when I try to open my mouth widely . Will this be curable without surgery?
Female | 19
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, can produce clicking sounds when you open your mouth. Nervous habits such as teeth grinding, stress or jaw misalignment may contribute to this. Many cases can be treated without surgery. Simple exercises for the jaw, hot/cold packs, and elderly eating are some of the treatments that might result in improvement. If your symptoms continue to worsen, you should get in contact with an orthopedist.

What to expect 5 months after knee replacement?
Male | 45
At 5 months after knee replacement surgery, patients can expect to have significantly reduced pain and improved mobility compared to the pre-surgical state. However, complete recovery may take up to a year or more. Regular physical therapy, exercises, and follow-up appointments with the doctor are necessary to ensure the best possible outcomes.

Pain where pelvis / femur connect severe pain when I stand up.
Male | 57
You might be experiencing a lot of discomfort where your pelvis connects with your thigh bone especially when standing up. This could be due to swelling or an injury in the muscles, tendons, or ligaments around that part of the body. You should rest, put ice on it, and avoid activities that make it worse. If this does not help then go and see an orthopedist who will examine you further before giving any treatment.
