Sore muscles can be the root of this problem due to, for example, a bad sleeping posture. It might also be the spine itself that is giving you problems. Help your body to recuperate from the injury by avoiding movements that make it worse, using a heating pad or ice pack, and trying gentle stretches for the back. If the pain persists or you think you are feeling worse, it is a good idea to consult an orthopedist.

It's great that you've dedicated so many years to your work, but if you're experiencing health issues, it's important not to ignore them. Given your long-term involvement in food service, you may be prone to conditions related to prolonged standing, repetitive movements, or stress. Visit an internal orthopedist or a general physician who can evaluate your concerns and guide you on the next steps.

Overall imaging findings are suggestive of basilar invagination causing significant compression effect over the proximal cervical cord resulting in compressive myelopathy along with post surgical changes as detailed. Clinical and prior pre-surgical imaging correlation will be helpful. Degenerative disc disease, predominantly at C2-C3 and C3-C4 levels, resulting in moderate radicular compression, as detailed. DR SAMEERA SALMAN FCPS, MBBS SENIOR INSTRUCTOR
Female | 65
As per the imaging results, it appears that there is a situation called basilar invagination that presses the brain stem on the superior spinal cord, thus causing the formation of a condition called compressive myelopathy. The squeezing action can result in numbness and poor coordination of the body. In addition, the fact that they have degenerative disc disease at C2-C3 and C3-C4 might also be the cause of the nerve root compression. This pain, tingling, or weakness in the arms may occur. You must meet with your doctor so that the best treatment plan which may consist of, physical exercise, drugs or surgery to unburden the spinal cord if necessary can be discussed. It is not something you can overlook if you aim to prevent further complications and have a better quality of life.

Hi I am 33 years old weighing 75 kgs approx.I have 3 kids with natural delivery.Since 10 days I am having pain in my left knee which occurs only while bending or climbing up the stairs.I have no problem while standing or doing any heavy related work.Its only at bending time that the pain kicks in. I am healthy with no allergies,infections or any other ailment. I haven't been injured in my legs.I feel it's happening due to increase in my uric acid. Kindly advise on my course of action to alleviate the pain.
Female | 33
Your left knee hurts when you're bending over or climbing stairs. This kind of pain, which occurs only on bending, might be due to a condition called patellofemoral pain syndrome. It is likely to be triggered by activities such as climbing stairs. Increasing uric acid levels are not generally associated with knee pain. To help ease the pain, you can begin by taking it easy on your knee, applying ice packs, gently stretching, and taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. If the pain persists, it's best to seek advice from an orthopedist for further evaluation and treatment options.

Male | 21
You may have a muscle strain in your left shoulder blade. This happens when you use that muscle a lot or have poor posture. You may feel sharp pain, especially when moving your arm. Try gently stretching and putting ice on the area. Do not do things that make the pain worse. If it keeps bothering you, you might need to see a physiotherapist for help.

I am 19 years old , female . I have TMJ problem... I don't have pain till now .. but I just have a clicking sound when I try to open my mouth widely . Will this be curable without surgery?
Female | 19
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, can produce clicking sounds when you open your mouth. Nervous habits such as teeth grinding, stress or jaw misalignment may contribute to this. Many cases can be treated without surgery. Simple exercises for the jaw, hot/cold packs, and elderly eating are some of the treatments that might result in improvement. If your symptoms continue to worsen, you should get in contact with an orthopedist.

The doctor said that the bone that is formed now cannot be seen on xray, after three months xray will not show the cracks.
Male | 32
You have a fractured patella. Common symptoms include swelling and difficulty bending or lifting your leg. A visible fracture line on the X-ray means the bone is still healing. Over time, the bone will become stronger, and the cracks will disappear. Continue resting your knee, doing gentle exercises, and consult your orthopedist for guidance. The healing process takes time, but you will recover.

had a fall resulting in fractured femur - hospitalised and eventually discharged home - able to mobilise with frame. A second fall resulted in damage to replaced hip joint. Emergency surgery followed by infection in joint and removal of hip on one side. Months in hospital - no improvement with physio. Now in care home, totally immobile - on morphine for pain relief. No muscle tone in legs which are permanently bent to the side up to buttocks. Is there any possible remedy?
Female | 76
Living with no muscle tone and leg bent all the time during the day after the hip surgery can be difficult. Now it is more important to stay actively involved with an orthopedist. They offer detailed treatments and therapies that aim to minimize pain and improve mobility.

Hello Doctor, My joints and bones are paining and my leg is swelling that's why I have muscle weakness and so less immunity. I'm working and my job is sitting in the chair the whole day, please tell me what to do?
Female | 22
Muscles would be weakened consequently and immunity to illnesses would be lowered. Set a timer for an hour on your phone and get up to walk or stand each time it goes off. Move them and pump your muscles for better circulation. One of the tips to deal with swelling is to raise your legs while sitting. Besides that have healthy food and drink a lot of water.

Hey I’m getting a weird feeling in my right foot it comes a goes but it feels like a pulse movement it feels weird I’m not sure what it is
Female | 24
You might be feeling a throbbing sensation in your right foot. The constriction of blood vessels or the poor circulation of that area can be the cause. In rare instances, stress, anxiety, or the overconsumption of caffeine, may lead to the same feeling. Walk around and try to keep your foot upright for a while. Talking to an orthopedist is advisable if the feeling persists or gets worse.
