I am a 20 year old female. I had missed a step and fallen down on ground two days ago (I think I twisted my left ankle but I don't remember clearly). After that I have trouble putting weight on my left leg. It doesn't hurt when I am resting and even movement is possible. But whenever I walk, there is some sort of pull near the left ankle and it hurts whenever I try to put weight on it. I have done ice compresses and elevated it but still it pains whenever I walk. Is it a mild ankle sprain? what should i do next?

Consult a Physiotherapist if no relief then consult an Orthopedic.

And I do have constant body pain every day, my knees hurt

Female | 29

Experiencing ongoing discomfort can be challenging. Body soreness and knee pain may stem from various factors, including arthritis, overuse, or injuries. It’s essential to stay active within your comfort zone to maintain flexibility and strength. Gentle stretching, low-impact exercises, and applying heat or cold can offer relief. Consider your daily activities and any recent changes that may contribute to these symptoms. I recommend scheduling an appointment with an orthopedist to discuss your experiences and explore underlying causes and tailored treatment options.

Hi, I'm a 22 year old male with back pain, I've been to doctors loads of times for the past 7-8 months but all they been telling me is to take pain killers and exercise, ive had a MRI scan which showed L5-S1 left subarticular disc protrusion and L4-5 facet joint arthropathies is that right for them to keep telling me to exercise?

Male | 22

The MRI scan reveals a disc disorder, along with an ache from the facet joint. Workouts can make your muscles healthier and render them more flexible, which is very helpful when managing the pain. You really must stick to the exercise plan of the physiotherapist without fail to reduce the damage caused. Painkillers are one way of pain relief, but the long-term solution comes from exercise, and maybe a few more such treatments like physical therapy depending on the severity of the problem.

there is a lump on my calves i’d like to know what is that

Female | 16

This might be caused by a muscle knot or cyst developing whenever a muscle tightens or a sac fills with fluid. When you touch it, you may feel pain, tenderness, or no symptoms at all. It is important to use warm compresses, massage gently, and perform stretch exercises. If the situation doesn’t improve, seek medical advice for further assessment from an orthopedist

I've been having knee pains for a few years but never very bad. Last year, I hyperextended my knee and ever since I'll have someday where I almost don't feel any pain, and other days where I feel like it's ready to just give out. Is there any advice on what this could be or how I could treat it?

Male | 15

Persistent knee pain along with hyperextension injury should be evaluated by a healthcare professional. It could be due to ligamentous injury, meniscal tear, or patellofemoral pain syndrome. Some rest and pain medications can provide temporary relief.

I fell down and hurt my frontal and side right ankle and foot. I used ice and keep my foot elevated. Underwent xray showing normal report. Took Hifenac MR and applied Systaflam Gel on the area. Pain has reduced but still sometimes I feel pain while walking. Swelling has reduced but still there. I feel pressure and heaviness on calf muscles and back of thigh area. Kindly suggest.

Female | 32

There is a chance of soft tissue injury resulting in pain, swelling, pressure, and heaviness. I advise to see orthopedist for detailed examination with subsequent treatment plan. You are suggested to elevate and ice the part that is hurting and avoid the activities that worsen the symptoms.

Female | 30

It sounds like you're experiencing severe pain in both your neck and back. The MRI results indicate that some discs in your spine are pressing on your nerves, causing this ongoing pain. This could be due to the gradual wear and tear of the discs over time. See an orthopedist to discuss treatment options and help manage your pain effectively. It's important to follow your doctor's advice closely to aid in your recovery process.

I noticed a kind of lump on my left leg last year. It started out small in like July but eventually got a big bigger (noticed the growth in November) and the area turned black. I took Clindamycin for a while and the lump reduced, it's no longer there. This year, a few weeks ago, I noticed a small lump on the same leg above the former place (like the middle of my leg). There's also a kind of bump on my tibi (I can feel it) and there's a spot above my knee, at the side, that's painful to the touch. I have Sickle Cell Disease and in 2016, I had a surgery to remove my left fibula. I had Chronic Osteomyelitis.

Female | 23

It’s good to hear that the previous lump improved with treatment. Your current symptoms, including the new lump and pain, may be related to previous conditions or other factors. Sickle Cell Disease can sometimes lead to issues like infections or bone problems. Monitoring changes in your body is important, and since you've had previous complications, I recommend consulting your gastroenterologist to evaluate these new changes. They can offer tailored advice and determine whether further investigation or treatment is needed.

Waking up with pins and needles, muscle cramps, shaking pain, and cold sensations on your thighs can be symptoms of Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). RLS triggers a tickling sensation and the urge to move your legs. To manage these symptoms, try gentle exercises, and warm baths, and ensure you get enough good sleep. Specific medications may also help. It's important to contact an orthopedist who can diagnose and suggest the right treatment for these issues.

A couple of days ago I was getting up off the floor after some push ups and lost my balance a bit and felt several cracks/pops from my left knee. I was crouching on the balls of my feet falling backwards and to try to regain balance I was leaning my knees forward in full flexion, with my thighs pressing onto my calves. I kind of collapsed one the spot, more due to surprise than in pain but it was sore after that. Now it's not really hindering me while I'm on my feet at all aside from a sense of fragility if that makes sense, though that could be more mental to be honest. However I do start to feel a tiny bit of pain and a combination of discomfort and weakness when I flex my knee approaching a 90 degrees with my thigh, both behind my knee around the end of my thigh and on top of my knee towards the outside and a bit below the kneecap.

Male | 25

Flexing your knee at around 90 degrees causes pain behind and on top of the knee. It's essential to seek medical advice to diagnose and treat the issue properly. Avoid putting stress on the knee and consider resting and elevating it until you see an orthopedist.

4th PP base fracture and 5th MC dislocation L hand

Male | 22

You likely experienced a fracture in your 4th finger and dislocation of the 5th. Breaks and joint misalignments can occur due to accidents or falls. Pain, swelling, restricted movement: these symptoms indicate potential issues. Treatment often involves splints or casts to immobilize affected areas during healing. Though concerning initially, proper care should facilitate full recovery over time.

A toenail injury sounds unpleasant. Ripping off a nail may lead to pain and bleeding. Bandaging helps keep the area clean, or leaving it uncovered if bleeding is minimal. Cleanliness prevents infection. However, if severe pain, redness, or swelling occurs, seeking medical attention is wise.

It is common to have discomfort with hips and leg pain for a person. Such kind of pain can come from different places like muscle tension, joints problem, and even posture. With the increase in pain, it could be a sign of an illness./As the discomfort intensifies, it may indicate an underlying condition that requires attention. I would suggest that you rest, do ice-water therapies in the affected area, and perform some gentle stretching as well.

You might suffer from a disease called sciatica. Sciatica is a condition that arises when something is pressing on the nerves that extend from the lower back to both legs. As a result, severe pain, numbness, and walking difficulties are the possible consequences. It is most often associated with a herniated disc in the spine. Routine physical activities, stretching, and pain relief medications can assist. Besides pointing out the specific exercises that would help you relieve pressure on the nerves, you should also seek out an orthopedist.
