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.

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

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.

Groin pain can come from different sources like a muscle strain or hernia. To find out the right one, an orthopedist might recommend your tests like an ultrasound or MRI. These tests are to look through your body and find the exact problem. After the diagnosis is made, the doctor can recommend the right therapy, which may consist of physical therapy or surgery.

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.
