Why does my thumb hurt when I pour warm water on it?
Hey, Welcome to ClinicSpots. We're here to help you with your health concerns.
Your pain when warm water touches your thumb, radiating through your arm, might be related to nerve sensitivity or an underlying condition like neuropathy. The warmth could be triggering nerve endings, causing the pain to spread. It’s also possible that a minor injury or inflammation is reacting to the temperature change.
Next Steps to Follow
-Avoid Warm Water: Temporarily avoid exposing your thumb to warm water to prevent discomfort.
-Monitor Symptoms: Keep an eye on additional symptoms such as swelling, numbness, or changes in skin color.
-Consult a Healthcare Professional: Schedule an appointment with a doctor, preferably a neurologist or an orthopedic specialist, for a thorough evaluation. Diagnostic tests like nerve conduction studies or imaging might be needed.
-Detailed Examination: The doctor will perform a physical examination and take a medical history to diagnose the issue accurately. They might suggest treatments such as physical therapy, medications, or further tests based on their findings.
Health Tip
Consider gentle health exercises to maintain flexibility and reduce nerve sensitivity. Ensuring good hand ergonomics and avoiding repetitive strain can also help prevent discomfort.

Is knee swelling post-dislocation normal and treatable?
Swelling after causing a dislocated patella is usual. The plaster may play a part in the swelling, however, the major reason behind the injury is. Difficulty bending and walking are expected early on. As the knee mends, this will improve slowly over time. Light exercises your orthopedist suggests can stretch and strengthen your knee. Resting, elevating your leg, applying ice packs, and taking prescribed medications if necessary to reduce swelling will be helpful.

Why do my hips have sharp winter pain redness?
As you described, the sharp hip pain you get during the winter months and the redness and lines outside the vagina might be due to a condition called vulvar dermatitis. This can be painful but it is not the cause of pain inside the vagina or during urination. The drops after urination could be the muscle around the bladder causing it. To alleviate the discomfort, gentle washing and wearing cotton underwear may help. If the symptoms persist, an orthopedist can provide further guidance.
