Introduction

During limb lengthening surgery, the doctor cuts through the bone to be lengthened and inserts an external fixator to stabilize it. This procedure relies on the body's natural ability to grow new bones, ligaments, blood vessels, nerves, and soft tissues. A titanium rod is inserted, gradually increasing and stretching as it is absorbed into the body, resulting in a few extra inches of height.

I’m suffering from a severe cold with a headache and particularly intense pain in the back of my neck. It’s causing me trouble when bending, getting up, and even eating. Could you recommend some medication for me? I took LCZ 5mg this morning, but it hasn’t provided relief.Also I have slight cough and a sensation in my nose.

Male | 39

Your symptoms suggest sinusitis. Inflame­d sinuses cause headache­s, neck pain, coughs, congestion, runny noses. Ove­r-the-counter ibuprofen re­duces pain, inflammation. Drinking fluids, using humidifiers ease­s discomfort. However, if symptoms persist or worse­n, see a doctor promptly.

I got my acl and mcl surgery 4 weeks ago and now I walk without any support or knee brace it is safe or not ?? And today at bending my knee I hear a cracking sound it is possible of break the repaired acl

Male | 24

A cracking sound heard during knee flexion may raise a red flag. It might be caused by the rupture of scar tissue or movement of the joint. However, don't be frightened. Initially, it is not likely that the repaired ACL has been torn again. Still, though, for your good, stay away from practices that hurt or cause any discomfort. Keep being careful, and maybe set up a visit with your surgeon to check that everything is okay.

I feel cramp on both legs and survical issue

Male | 35

Feeling cramps on both legs as well as cervical issues may be because of nerve compression in the spine. The patients should see a neurologist or an orthopedic specialist for an adequate diagnosis and treatment. If these signs are ignored, they can trigger more serious problems.

Hi Doctor! My mum's spine is fractured and L1 is degenerated, she has been advised to go for spinal surgery by one surgeon, another prescribes its not necessary yet. She also needs hip replacement surgery which according to surgeon is more urgent & should be done first. We are confused and need some expert help on this please. THANK YOU!

Female | 75

Fractures cause pain and limit movement, while spinal degeneration also leads to discomfort. Back pain and difficulty walking are common symptoms. However, hip replacement is a more urgent concern because it significantly impacts mobility. Addressing the hip first, as recommended by the surgeon, could improve the quality of life by alleviating discomfort and mobility issues.

I have knee injury from 1 month I fell pain when I rotate me leg

Male | 17

Experiencing knee pain for a month, especially during leg rotation, requires evaluation by an orthopedist. Avoid aggravating activities, use ice and over the counter pain relief as needed, and seek medical attention for proper diagnosis and treatment.
