Answered on 29th July '24
Lumps can form on feet for various reasons. They might result from an impact, like bumping against something. Or they could signify a cyst or wart. If the lump causes discomfort, grows larger, or interferes with walking, seeking medical attention is advisable. An orthopedist can properly diagnose and treat the condition based on the lump's nature.

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.

Pain in right shoulder and right side ribs
Female | 27
Many reasons could explain this: a strained muscle, bruised rib, or internal organ issue. Recent falls or accidents may also be the reason —poor posture, overusing muscles too. First, try this: ice packs, rest that side. If pain persists, or worsens, it's the time to ask an orthopedist for help.

Good afternoon, I have been having waist pain frequently in the past few weeks. Yesterday I was having muscle pull consistently for several hours intermittently
Male | 53
It appears that you have recently been having some lower back pain as well as muscle pulls. These could be due to things like bad posture, overworking yourself or even just pulling a muscle while making a sudden move. To reduce your discomfort, try doing some gentle stretches, using warm packs, and resting when necessary.

The pain you are suffering from could be caused by something that sits on the nerves. This can be the result of vertebrae that are not in the right place or if the area around them is swollen.

How to get rid of arthritis in fingers?
Female | 45
Acupuncture helps in opening up the energy level ( commonly referred as 'Qi' in acupuncture theory).
Acupuncture needles are put on various parts of the body which helps in increasing the blood flow.
It has an anti inflammatory effect. It stops body's inflammatory response, increases blood flow and relaxes muscle tone. It helps in flushing out toxins from the body. Acupuncture releases endorphins which are natural hormones to reduce the feeling of pain and puts the patient in ultimate relaxed state i.e feeling of well being.
Electro acupuncture pulsates electric current through the needles.
Such procedure gives quick response and helps in reducing both pain and inflammation in people with arthritis.

Why have I had rib pain for months and hurts my side when breathing in
Female | 21
Chronic pain in ribs occurs which makes them feel painful while breathing. Moreover, it is often associated with the development of a life-threatening disease. The most widespread reasons for such pain are muscle strain, rib cracks, or inflammation of the lung lining. If you feel that such pain is occurring, it would be wise to make an appointment with a pulmonologist or an orthopedist.

Pain left thigh since Oct 2022. I fell down from an e-rickshaw while boarding on it. One leg on the rickshaw and another on the ground and I was dragged for about two meters until I fell on the ground. Since then got this pain.
Female | 55
Your left thigh pain since last October might be from that fall. Typical signs are aches, swelling, and leg troubles. You likely strained or bruised thigh muscles during impact. Try resting, icing the spot, and gentle stretches. But if there is no improvement or worse pain, it's wise to visit an orthopedist. They'll check and properly treat the injury.

I am 20 year old female. I have recurring back pain in my lower back since last 3 months. Its gets triggered after I do cleaning work or lifting weights. The pain has shifted to the side of my hip since last 2 days. What should I do?
Female | 20
It's important to address your recurring lower back pain, especially since it's now affecting your hip area. These symptoms could indicate a musculoskeletal issue or a possible strain. I recommend consulting an orthopedic specialist or a physiotherapist. They can evaluate your condition, suggest appropriate exercises or treatments, and provide guidance on managing and preventing further discomfort.

I am a 20 year old male. I have observed that the growth of my arm bone(both the hands) stopped in teen years which resulted in unusually thin arms. What should I do?
Male | 20
You have skinny arms due to delayed bone growth. This can be caused by factors like genetics, poor diet, or hormones. It's important to see your doctor; they can evaluate your condition and recommend treatment. In the meantime, focus on foods rich in calcium and vitamin D, as these help strengthen bones. Also, working out and lifting weights can build muscle and strengthen your arms. However, your orthopedist’s advice will be the most helpful, so ensure to follow it.

I am a 26 year old female I’ve been having muscle pain just below my clavicle bone accompanied with shoulder and neck pain. Also,a pressure builds up in my neck that causes frequent neck cracking. The muscle below my right clavicle is dipped in and causes a lot of pain trying to sit up properly. All the pressure on the neck caused a nymph node behind my right ear.
Female | 26
You might have muscle pain coupled with pressure on the neck and the shoulder region. Muscles are likely to be tensed or strained bringing about such signs. The issue of muscle dropping below your clavicle and squeezing your neck could result from sitting or standing with drooping shoulders. You can ease them by keeping the right body posture always, engaging in mild stretches that won’t hurt much, and using warm towels on those affected spots.

Sir meri Back bone k nechay k hisay mein hole hai jis sey blood aur pus ata hai mein kia kro
Male | 27
You may have an abscess in the sacral region. It could lead to the formation of a sinus that discharges blood or pus. You may experience tenderness, local heat, or swelling around this place. Abscesses occur as a result of infections most of the time. It is important to visit an orthopedist immediately to incise and drain it then give antibiotics for treatment.

I have inner thigh pain
Female | 28
The involvement in a thigh muscle can be separated from the skin, a sensation like tingling, aching in the hips, or a soreness in the groin developing a tear that causes discomfort but is usually not serious. The typical culprits are muscle strain caused by overwork or swift movement. It could also be the result of minor injuries or skin inflammation. Have some rest and apply ice to the inflamed area while at the same time, stretching the area slowly. If any discomfort continues or intensifies, discuss the matter with an orthopedist.

My friend Billie Jo gibbons she has trouble with her feet
Female | 25
Plantar fasciitis is one of the common conditions for this. It can cause pain at the bottom of the feet, particularly in the morning. It is a condition caused when tissue that connects the heel to the toes gets strained. Billie Jo should go for calf stretches and pick supportive shoes. Ice packs are also a good way to shrink the swelling.

I have a ganglion cyst on my wrist I'm suppose to have surgery on in the morning, the cyst disappeared 3 days ago. Should I still have the surgery or will they do the surgery still
Male | 37
Your ganglion cysts aren't often painful, though sometimes annoying or movement-limiting. Since yours vanished naturally, surgery might not be required anymore. However, inform your doctor about this development so they can reassess if the operation is still necessary or not.

Your median nerve is a principal nerve in your hand. When squeezed, it brings on carpal tunnel syndrome. That's a condition mostly occurring around the wrist area. Pain, numbness, or tingling in the hand and fingers are symptoms. Exercises and wrist splints can help ease it.

I have been suffering from stiff elbow post injury.. no fracture but ligament tear. I have been advised physiotherapy and have been undergoing it since 4months. But no improvement. Should I consult a neurologist for this?? I have consulted number of orthopaedic doctors
Female | 37
The challenge posed by a stiff elbow following an injury can be daunting, particularly when physical therapy fails to yield substantial improvements. A pinched nerve sometimes occurs, which is hard to admit. If your arm is still hurting and you want to find a solution, a neurologist is one of the doctors who could offer the right advice in addition to your treatment plan. They can view the problem and also find an effective way to release your tension.
