I fell down from the scooter hip is paining lot pl suggest

Female | 56

Hip pain can be a tough challenge to manage. When you fall, it can injure the muscles, tendons, or bones around your hip joint, leading to pain. It's important to rest the area, then apply ice to reduce swelling, and take over-the-counter pain relievers as needed. If the pain persists or worsens, it's best to consult an orthopedist for further evaluation.

What does partial lumbarization of S1 bilaterally with possible bilateral lateral S1-S2 pseudoarthrosis. No acute fracture mean?

Female | 29

S1 shows partial lumbarization. This is indicative of an unusual section of your back. It may be responsible for the pain you feel in your lower back. If a bone does not go the way it is supposed to, it will join another bone and cause an immovable joint which is what S1 - S2 bilateral sacroiliitis refers to. If there is no sudden fracture then there is none. Try to have some rest; take mild painkillers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen which can be bought over the counter at any pharmacy near you then after doing all this if it doesn’t work out fine consult a physiotherapist who will provide appropriate therapy for relief apart from doing exercises that are not too strenuous.

Okey so from past 2 months im having back pain from which im unable toh sit like im sitting for 5 minutes and than my back starts paining also its difficult for me to bend forward.. and my back is not when im laying down so what's is this issue can u please tell me.. also i have tried consulting a doctor he said it due to lack of calcium and vitamin im havin g medicine but its not helping me..

Female | 20

This is a situation where the discs that act as cushions to separate the spinal bones slip out of position and eventually start compressing the neighboring nerve roots. This condition could cause pain in the back as well as difficulty in sitting or bending. Some measures like soft movements of the body, hot and cold compresses, or physical therapy may be helpful. If these treatments do not work, you can consult an orthopedist for further treatments.

The burning pain and pain when you walk can result from various causes, like inflammation, infection, or contradicting the wear and tear of the artificial knee parts. However, it is vital to get it checked by an orthopedist as soon as possible to identify the problem and get the proper treatment.

Female | 50

Your symptoms are quite similar to those of sciatica. Sciatica pains are a form of irritation of the sciatic nerve, which is often responsible for the feeling. Physical therapy or even surgery may be necessary. It's important to consult a specialist, like a rheumatologist or orthopedic doctor, for proper diagnosis and treatment guidance tailored to your condition.

The swelling and discomfort in your foot may be due to the healing process of your fractures and the deep wound. It's crucial to keep the area clean and protected. For topical care, consider using an antibiotic ointment to prevent infection, but please consult an orthopedist for a personalized recommendation. You may also benefit from elevation and rest to reduce swelling.

Leg pain can arise from various factors such as muscle strain, joint issues, or circulation problems. Common symptoms include discomfort, swelling, or stiffness. To alleviate these sensations, rest, gentle stretching, and applying ice can be helpful. It's also beneficial to stay active with light exercise. However, if you notice persistent pain, swelling, or changes in mobility, it's essential to consult a orthopedist. They can provide tailored advice and determine if further examination is necessary.

This may occur when there is a sudden increase in physical activity which puts stress on these joints. Rest the knee, put some ice on it, and avoid anything that makes the pain worse for a few days. If the pain continues after this time then I would advise speaking with an orthopedist.

Essentially failure of the right ACL graft. Blunting of the free edge of the body of the right medial meniscus. Indeterminate appearances of the root of the posterior horn of the right medial meniscus. Tearing of the right lateral meniscus at the junction between the posterior horn and body. An early right knee 'cyclops' lesion cannot be completely excluded. Very early right knee joint degenerative changes.

Male | 25

Your right knee is having some issues. One of the causes of pain, swelling, and the inability to move the knee can be an incorrectly functioning graft that the ACLs are made of. The meniscus tears can cause more pain and problems with your knee bending down. The 'cyclops' lesion may be why it is difficult to straighten your knee. When early changes in the joint are seen, this may be an indication of the wearing down of the knee joint cartilage. Physical therapy and possibly surgery may be needed to treat these conditions. Consult your orthopedic doctor for the best treatment plan.

Female | 49

Osteoarthritis is a condition that can cause pain and stiffness in your joints. The tissues that cushion your joints wear away, leading to this problem. Sometimes it may be due to old age, an injury, or obesity. You can do low-impact exercises such as walking or swimming to relieve the pain. Alternatively, apply ice packs or use heating pads on the affected area. Furthermore, purchasing footwear with proper arch support may also alleviate discomfort.

I started having muscle pain/ache in my outer right hip area a day after I changed my everyday footwear a week ago. Pain is dull and bearable but irritating. It usually starts when walking and tends to go away slowly when sitting in a relaxed sitting position. Sometimes it also starts when sleeping. I'm not taking any medication of any kind. I'm underweight due to my lifestyle and eating habits.

Male | 24

It seems that you have muscle pain on the outside right hip region. This pain could have been caused by changing shoes. Muscles can ache if they are tense or strained. In addition, if you are too thin, your muscles may easily get tired. Put on supportive footwear, stretch gently and take a good diet so that your muscles can heal. Also, make sure to rest and avoid activities that worsen the ache.

It sounds like you're experiencing a combination of fatigue, discomfort, and vision issues, which can stem from various factors such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, or underlying health conditions. It's essential to take breaks during work, stay hydrated, and ensure a balanced diet rich in vitamins. Engaging in gentle exercises may also help with leg discomfort and energy levels. However, since you're experiencing these symptoms, I recommend scheduling an appointment with a orthopedist for thorough evaluation to identify any specific concerns and provide tailored advice.
