Asked for Female | 75 Years

Hello, I am 75 years of age, female from Jodhpur. There is moderate pain in right knee and gets stiffness while walking for ten minutes. The knee does not bend fully. Walking is like limping. Sometimes swelling also. Though I perform my daily activities and do not use stick or cane for walking. Thank you, Abha Shrivastava

Answered by Samruddhi Bhartiya

Based on our analysis, any of the following could be the underlying cause of the symptoms that you present with:

  • Some fluid-filled sac/cyst which is either behind your knee or somewhere near your knee joint.
  • Some form of arthritis which is characterized by inflammation of one or more joints.
  • Some injury in your tendon which connects your kneecap to your shinbone.
  • Some undetected injury to your thighbone.
  • Some form of ligament tear or stretching.
  • Some undesirable joint condition

 

Or this could also be as a result of some pain syndrome which would subside with proper self-care. But as we lack testing facilities and also because the virtual platform has its limitations, thus you should seek consultation services from a doctor instead, please visit our page and do your search - Orthopedic Doctor in India.

Having knee pain 10 yrs post surgery the bone is hurting what could it be and what treatment

Female | 78

Knee discomfort a decade after surgery could stem from various factors, such as arthritis, post-surgical changes, or soft tissue issues. Symptoms like aching, stiffness, or swelling may indicate underlying problems. It's essential to consult a orthopedist for an accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment plan. Options may include physical therapy, pain management strategies, or, in some cases, minimally invasive procedures. Focus on gentle exercises to enhance mobility and strengthen the supporting muscles.

Painful swollen foot in 85 y old lady since 20 days after possible eversion injury Treated conservatively with walking air cast but little improvement Your kind opinion

Female | 85

An outward roll of the ankle may cause immediate pain and swelling, so an eversion injury is likely. There could be mild fractures or other problems missed by the initial examination or X-rays. I would advise you to get it checked again, if not much progress has been made in the next 3 weeks even while using an air cast for support.

Male | 17

For some time­ now, you've had pain on your left side. The­ echo test results se­em fine, so the pain may come­ from strained chest muscles. Twitching in the­ chest can occur with this condition. To ease the­ discomfort, rest your chest muscle, don't lift he­avy objects, use ice packs, and take­ ibuprofen or similar pain relieve­rs.
