I have a Big knot on left hip just raised last week

Male | 31

A raised lump on your hip can arise from various causes, including muscle strain, cysts, or even swollen lymph nodes. Accompanying symptoms might include tenderness or slight discomfort, but often these are harmless. It’s important to monitor any changes, such as increased size, pain, or redness. For relief, you can apply a warm compress and take over-the-counter pain relievers if needed. However, I encourage you to consult an orthopedist for an accurate assessment, particularly if the knot persists or worsens.

I just need to know if I’m over reacting or I need to express the issue? I have a spot on my thigh but it’s larger and I hadn’t noticed it until now when I stood up and it really hurt. It’s very painful since and it’s purple and warm and red and swelling and it worried me a lot

Female | 16

It's understandable to feel concerned about the spot on your thigh, especially given the pain, warmth, swelling, and color changes you've noticed. These symptoms could suggest inflammation or possibly a bruise, but they warrant careful attention. It’s best to monitor the area for any changes in size, color, or intensity of pain. If the discomfort persists or worsens, I recommend consulting a orthopedist for a thorough evaluation. They can provide an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

I diagnosed with Ankylosing spondylitis arthritis on feb 2024 that time my ESR was 70 and now its down to 26 whats that mean

Female | 25

An ESR test measures inflammation levels in your body. A lower ESR reading, like 26, indicates less inflammation compared to a higher value like 70. This suggests the inflammatory condition is relatively better controlled. Ankylosing spondylitis causes back pain and stiffness due to inflammation in the spine. Effective management involves staying physically active through exercise routines, adhering to prescribed medications, maintaining a balanced diet, and avoiding tobacco use.

I am a 17-year-old female who is recovering from a mild knee ligament stretch. I had a splint for 2 weeks and had been recovering for over a month. Yesterday, I played badminton because my knee felt good. However, I had an awkward fall and twisted my knee. It hurt at first, but I can walk and climb stairs relatively normally. It hurts when I fully straighten my knee or tighten it. There is no buckling of the knee. The pain is a little achey and a little dull. I don't know which one exactly. What should I do? Is it okay if I resume normal activities, but just be more careful and elevate my leg when I sit or lie down?

Female | 17

You might have twisted your knee again while playing badminton. Aching dull pain when you try to straighten or tighten your knee could mean the ligament has been pulled too hard. It’s great that you can still walk and go upstairs. To let it get better, you should rest as much as possible, put your leg up from time to time, and avoid doing anything too hard for a while.

Female | 36

You've been experiencing pain in the sternum, left arm, shoulder blade, and ribs. Such discomfort can have many sources, for instance, a muscle strain or inflammation. It is a happy occasion when the results, such as ECG and blood work, are in the normal range. Physiotherapy can be a solution for the everlasting pain in the shoulder blade.

Male | 27

Acupuncture points help in rehabilitation of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) . Using the local and distal points in acupuncture, it helps in repair of ligaments and reduces the rehabilitation time.
Acupuncture combined with seed and magnet therapy, moxibustion have miraculously helped in treating ACL tear naturally I.e without surgery.
One can lead a normal life once a patient is pain free.
The treatment time depends on the severity of the patient but nonetheless 12- 15 sessions will be required which will help reduce the pain and repair the ligament. Further course of treatment can be advised post the knee scan.

I am24 year old suffering with back pain

Male | 24

It may have been caused by lifting heavy objects and straining your muscles or having a bad posture. Once in a while, this pain is usually associated with problems in the spine or disks. To help relieve the pain, try doing some mild stretching exercises, using hot or cold packs, and avoiding activities that make it worse. If it doesn’t go away or get any better after a while then I think it would be wise if you consulted an orthopedist about it.

I am 39 years old and have been experiencing back pain for over 2 years. About a year ago, I started feeling pain in my lower back, which eventually subsided, but for the past 3 to 4 months, the pain has returned and now extends to my thigh and leg. When I wake up, the pain improves after some movement. I find it difficult to sleep straight in bed due to lipomas on my side waist that cause discomfort when pressed, resulting in pain. When I get out of bed, my body aches, and my legs feel weak and painful. Occasionally, I take a Nimesulide tablet, which provides relief for 5 to 6 days. Additionally, I experience pain in different parts of my body on different days, such as my chest, arms, and neck. What should I do?

Male | 40

The pain radiating from the lumbar region to the hip and leg is likely to be a sciatica, which is caused by irritation of the sciatic nerve. Thus it is advisable to wear proper clothes. The lipomas may also be located on your side waist. It is so important to have a thorough evaluation by an orthopedist to establish the exact cause of your symptoms and create a proper management plan.

Male | 24

The discomfort in your upper back, the tightness in the chest, and neck pain could be stemming from the slight disc bulge in the neck. This can contribute to the irritation of the nerves thus evoking the preceding symptoms. To prevent this, you can use different activities such as therapy exercises, light neck stretches, proper posture, and heating or icing packs. Besides, you should always stick to the advice of your orthopedist.

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.

Female | 17

You may be suffering from a blood clot in your leg as a result of the accident. Injury to the leg causes blood to pool and form a clot causing swelling, redness, and pain. This is serious because the clot may break free and travel to other parts of your body. Elevate your leg above your heart, apply ice, and take a break. When the pain persists or becomes severe, go to the nearest hospital immediately.

I am feeling pain in my toes. When I slept last night, it was not there. But after getting up in the morning, it was there. Is this because of Sugar?

Male | 52

The pain in the toes is very likely to be indirectly connected to sugar levels but not directly. Usual reasons may be a poor choice of shoes or unfavorable body posture during the night. Take necessary measures for correct shoe wear and keep your feet elevated when resting to decrease the chances of getting hurt or sick. The situation that causes the pain may also continue or even become worse with expected changes. In such a case, you should see an orthopedist to isolate the problem.

Hand problem my elbow is gone to fracture

Male | 25

Your elbow might be broken. When the elbow is broken, you can feel pain, see swelling, and can’t move your arm easily. Fractures may occur by falling or putting too much pressure on the joint while doing some activities. A cast or sling may be required for your elbow to heal, but sometimes an operation is necessary too. Don't forget to follow up with an orthopedist.

For 3 months, the area around my right shoulder blade has been swollen and I sometimes have pain when moving my arm. The swollen area is soft and does not hurt to the touch.

Male | 19

You have swelling near a joint. That's probably bursitis. The swollen areas contain fluid sacs. Moving your affected arm brings pain and discomfort. You should rest your arm and use cold packs. This can reduce inflammation. Also, try stretching exercises. These may offer relief. However, if the pain continues, visit an orthopedist.
