Can you assist me with infected elbow implants?

Patient's Query

my name is Anas Ahmed Mohamed. I broke my elbow in 2019 and underwent surgery where metal implants were inserted. Unfortunately, the implants caused an infection and had to be removed. Now, I am unable to fully extend my elbow. I have visited hospitals in Mogadishu, but they told me that I need treatment abroad. However, my family is poor and cannot afford to take me for treatment. Please let me know if you can provide any assistance or guide me to someone who can help. Thank you.

Answered by Dr. Pramod Bhor

It’s common to experience limited movement after surgery and infection. Physical therapy may be a beneficial option to help improve your range of motion and strengthen the joint. I encourage you to consult an orthopedist who can evaluate your situation more closely and propose a personalized treatment plan. Additionally, consider reaching out to local charities or health organizations; they may have resources to assist you with your medical needs.

I m 30 yrs old I have back pain for last 2yrs I took MRI scan 2 months back and treatment but still I have back pain

Male | 30

There are many different reasons why people get back pain. It could be because of a muscle strain or problems with your discs. Also, if you still have the pain even after getting an MRI done and treated for it then more tests need to be carried out. Make sure you talk about what’s been happening with your doctor because they’ll need this information to help figure out what would work best for you.

I am suffering leg pain including knee due to my old age 63 , best possible treatment for relief. Please guide

Female | 63

As a medical expert, I suggest that you go to an orthopedist to examine your knee and leg. It is not unusual fat this age group to be hit by joint wear and tear. A orthopedic doctor will diagnose the actual reason for the pain, and will propose the most appropriate treatment, which may range from medications, physical therapy and surgery if needed.

What is the difference between fibromyalgia and polymyalgia rheumatica?

Female | 66

Both fibromyalgia and polymyalgia are more common in women than men. Fibromyalgia can occur at any age, but polymyalgia rarely occurs before age 50. The average age of onset is 70. And whereas fibromyalgia is chronic, often lasting a lifetime, polymyalgia usually resolves itself within two years.

i am 42 years age male. i have heel pain from 4 years from the day i went meniscus tear surgery.from that day i hav heel pain. no result i am geeting from anywhere. docrtors saying wear proper shoes wear arch.take d3.stretching. not even 1 percent imroovement

Male | 42

The discomfort you're experiencing might be connected to your meniscus tear surgery. Sometimes after surgery, our bodies can surprise us by reacting in a way that is not expected. I suggest supportive footwear, practicing targeted stretches for the foot, and taking a vitamin D supplement.
