My legs give out. Sometimes I can't even get up when they get out.

Male | 14

Your legs may feel weak. There are many possible reasons for this, including lack of exercise, poor diet and nutrition, or low levels of certain vitamins. Try eating well-balanced meals each day and getting regular physical activity. Additionally, don’t forget to drink plenty of water. If these suggestions do not help, then it would be wise to consult with an orthopedist so that potential underlying causes can be eliminated.

I am a 43 year old female, I have been experiencing chronic lower back pain for the last 8 months, the pain feels like it is nerves, I have trouble walking and can only walk around 20 metres. I take lyrica and palexia, they do not seem to be working. This is having a huge impact in my life

Female | 43

Chronic lower back pain can have various causes, such as spinal herniation, muscle strain, or spinal stenosis. If the pain feels nerve-related and affects your ability to walk, it could indicate nerve compression or damage. If medications like Lyrica and Palexia aren't effective, consider discussing other options with an orthopedist, such as physical therapy, injections, or surgery.

Male | 15

It is common to feel more pain if you have been without a supporter for some days. It is necessary to let your finger sit still for a while and then you can apply the cold pack to the injured area to decrease any swelling. If the pain persists or worsens, you should consult an orthopedist.

I have a wound on my knee. Two days ago i fall in the road

Female | 22

I think you got a scratch on your knee when you fell. It's okay to have pain, redness, and swelling around your wound. This is because the fall has injured your skin. The solution is to gently clean the wound using soap and water, apply an antibiotic ointment, and cover it with an adhesive bandage. Always change the dressing daily until it heals. Opening up is necessary if the pain worsens or you notice any infections with symptoms like pus, light redness, or warmth.

I'm a 19 year old boy I have question regarding bone related. Wheather my growth plates are fused?

Male | 19

Did you know that growth plates are areas at the ends of bones in children and teenagers where growth occurs? But when we stop growing, these growth plates fuse. In boys, this usually happens between the ages of 17 to 19. If you're 19 and not sure if yours have fused, you won't be able to tell without a medical exam. If you're worried, you should probably consider speaking to an orthopedist.

I am a 70 year old male and have been having pain in both my shoulders and knees for the last 6 months. I have used medicines and pain reliever ointment cream for few days but there is no relief. What should I do now?

Male | 70

Joint pain like this could be due to osteoarthritis, which is common in older people. As we age, the cartilage in our joints wears down, leading to discomfort. It's important to stay active to maintain flexibility and strength but avoid activities that make the pain worse. Gentle exercises like walking or swimming can help. Physical therapy can also teach you specific exercises to strengthen the muscles around your joints and improve mobility. Over-the-counter pain relievers might provide relief, but it's essential to consult with an orthopedist before starting any new medication.

Male | 22

It's quite common to have some discomfort after spine surgery. The pain in your leg could be due to nerve irritation or inflammation resulting from the surgery. In fact, sometimes the nerves need time to heal and settle down. To help manage the pain, make sure to follow your doctor's recommendations for pain relief medication and try gentle exercises to maintain flexibility. It's essential to stay in touch with your spine surgeon to monitor your progress and address any concerns that may arise.

I have severe knee pain when I stand up for too long and I have just noticed there is a large indentation in my knee

Male | 59

You have patellofemoral pain syndrome. This condition causes pain around or under the knee cap, which can spread to the side of the knee. It's often due to overuse, weak muscles, or improper knee-cap positioning. Exercises to strengthen leg muscles and supportive sports shoes can help. A key part of treatment is avoiding activities that worsen the pain.

I'm having difficulty walking because of an incident from my childhood, when I was 10. I don't remember much but when I was 10, I was climbing on a window while playing. Suddenly, pain shot up my spine. Maybe I was hanging there for 15 minutes, and a nerve got compressed. Something I figured out now after growing up. When I climbed down from the window, I couldn't walk properly; I was limping. We went to a doctor, he took an X-ray but couldn't find the problem. I couldn't get proper treatment. I remember I used to go to school with difficulty until 10th grade. Then, after my board exams, we went to a doctor again because the weakness had increased. Again, the doctor couldn't understand the problem. He referred me to Chandigarh. But before that, he gave me injections every week, I think they were for weak bones and nerves. I remember he said my nerves and bones were very weak. It was a temporary treatment. He said the effect of these injections would last for 7-8 years. After the injections, I could walk again like normal people. I just couldn't jump, but everything else went back to how it was before. But the effect only lasted for 3-4 years. I was 16 when I had the injections, and around 19-20 the problem started again. Actually, my mom got ill, she had surgery, and I used to help her with chores, and it started affecting my back. I remember whenever I used to do any work, my back would hurt so much. And again, slowly, I couldn't walk. Year by year, my body became weaker, and now I am completely bedridden; I can't even stand on my own. Because I'm confined to my room, I became depressed, and I started having anxiety issues. Sometimes I fear I might become paralyzed. So, I think the problem started with nerve compression in my back. I just want to know, will I be fine? What exactly is my problem? What should I do?

Female | 28

It sounds like you may be experiencing issues related to spinal nerve compression or weakness due to the injury from your childhood. Symptoms like weakness and difficulty walking can arise from such conditions. It’s crucial to seek a comprehensive evaluation from a specialist, such as an orthopedist or neurologist, who can perform necessary tests to determine the exact cause. They may recommend physical therapy, pain management, or other treatments tailored to your needs.

Tailbone pain treatment required

Male | 33

Tailbone pain, or coccydynia, is a real discomfort for many. It typically manifests as tenderness or aching at the bottom of the spine. It can be caused by long sitting, falling, or childbirth. To alleviate this, you can try using a cushion while you sit, practicing not sitting for a long time, and doing simple exercises. Generally, the pain should heal on its own. If it still happens to persist, it is best to consult an orthopedic doctor for more help.

Dear Sir/Madam,I live in Iran.My mother has fallen to the ground, and hurt her hip. Her pain has reduced a lot since more than 2 weeks ago (January 27th), but she still feels pain. She says it's about 8% of the pain she felt 2 weeks ago. What can we do to reduce her pain? She refuses to go to the doctors.She is 70 years old, has severe osteoporosis, blood pressure, mild cardiac arrhythmia, and acid reflux. Famotidine, Amlodipine, Bisoprolol, Chlorediazepoxide. She used to have Calcium supplements. Never had any treatments for Osteoporosis, not that I remember.

Female | 70

Given her age and existing health conditions, it's important to address her hip discomfort carefully. Encourage gentle movement or physical therapy exercises tailored for osteoporosis to enhance mobility and strength. Additionally, applying heat or cold packs may provide relief. Since she has not received specific treatment for osteoporosis, consider discussing calcium and vitamin D supplements with her if she hasn't been taking them regularly. While I understand her reluctance, an orthopedist can offer targeted advice and ensure there are no serious underlying issues.

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.

I was about going to sleep at night when I started feeling some twitching around my eyes coupled with some electric-like shocks on my face. When I slept and woke up, I discovered it had increased. My face looked swollen, and my mouth was somehow tight. I couldn't whistle with it or shape it any way I wanted to. I couldn't open it wide. I couldn't close my eyes without pain and It was blinking even when I closed it and it was like a stress to my nose when I closed one of the eye or both. All of these relieved me in two days time.

You may have experienced a condition called Bell's Palsy, which causes facial muscle weakness and can affect your posture. Bell's Palsy is usually due to nerve inflammation that controls facial muscles, leading to symptoms like twitching, facial swelling, and difficulty closing your eyes or moving your mouth. While most cases heal on their own, it's important to monitor any new symptoms. Initially, your posture changes and tightness in your left hip were the main concerns. Stretching exercises can help improve your range of motion and correct your posture. Consulting a physiotherapist or orthopedist can help you manage these symptoms professionally.
