Struggling with Sciatica Nerve Problems?

Patient's Query

I have problem with sciatica nerve issues

Answered by Dr. Gurneet Sawhney

Sciatica usually happens when there's pressure on the sciatic nerve, which can be due to various reasons like a herniated disc, bone spur, or even just muscle inflammation. To help manage the pain, you can try gentle stretching, applying ice or heat, and taking over-the-counter pain relievers. It's important to avoid sitting for too long and to maintain good posture. If the pain persists, it's best to see a neurologist for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I am 59 years old and since I started taking Tasigna 200mg, there has been a stiffness in my thumb. I do not know if this is related to the medication, but I have been having a stiffness, twitching, in my thumb, mostly the joints, especially in my knuckle. Sometimes it also spreads to my wrist and other fingers. Also, if it touches anything (the finger) it kind of has a sore and burning sensation.

Female | 59

It seems plausible that the rigidity and spasms evident in your thumb may be indicative of arthritis. Arthritis usually leads to soreness, lack of mobility, as well as a burning sensation felt at the joints around such parts as the knuckles and wrists. This could linked with the Tasigna you’re taking. To alleviate the symptoms of this condition, try doing some easy exercises, using hot or cold packs on the area or discussing potential drug changes with your physician.

I m a 61 yr old female.i had a lower back nerve surgery in August but from September I m experiencing pain in lower back.what should I do??

Female | 61

The pain you are experiencing can be due to the inflammation or irritation of the nerves which are located in the back. It is vital that your doctor is aware of the pain so they can assess it and choose the most appropriate action. Treatment alternatives may contain physical therapy, medication, or further assessment in order to treat the primary issue of the pain.

I'm experiencing back pain and left leg pain from 2 months. Symptoms like numbness and sleepy some time. Medicine name which I am using now Repicort, gablin, viton, frendol p, acabel, prelin,rulling.

Male | 16

These signs might be due to a disorder with your lower back, maybe a pinched nerve. The medicines you are taking can help with the pain and nerve symptoms. Nevertheless, it is equally important to think about physical therapy and gentle exercises to make your back stronger and relieve the pressure on the nerve.

Leg swelling after sitting an hrs

Female | 26

Sitting for a while can make­ your legs swell. This happens whe­n your blood gets stuck in your lower legs. You'll notice­ puffy, heavy, tight legs. It's caused by bad blood flow. To he­lp with the swelling, get your le­gs higher than your heart. Move around e­very hour. Put on compression socks. These­ things will get your blood moving again and stop the swelling.

Male | 38

Your shoulder and arm pain lasting 8 months sounds difficult. This prolonge­d discomfort could stem from muscle or joint issues, like­ inflammation or injury. It's crucial to give your arm and shoulder proper re­st. Ice packs can help reduce­ swelling. Gentle stre­tching exercises, as guide­d by a physical therapist, may provide relie­f too.

Hi my Name is Neo am 22 years I have a problem Saturday night I got a knocked on a car door Sunday I experienced pains on my penis now it’s swollen nd it changed where am it’s bruised the skin is getting shinny.

Male | Neo

It seems like you might have hurt your penis while you got hit by the car door. Pain, swelling, and bruising are not unusual in this case. The glossy skin could be a sign of recovery. Make sure you get some rest, wear loose-fitting clothes, and use ice packs to bring down any swelling. If these symptoms get worse or do not improve it would be best to see a doctor as soon as possible.

I broke my big toe. It was pretty bad and painful and I went to the ER. They do X-ray and told me that by big toe is fractured. It was late and they didn't give me any other information nor my X-ray. They said that I have to buddy tape it for now but I cat step on it or put any shoes. Do you think I need a walking boot or some kind of immobilization to my foot?

Female | 28

I would suggest that you should consult an orthopedist for further investigation of the health status. The X-rays reports as well the correct diagnosis of fractures are necessary for severe injury assessment. Based on the level of severity, he or she may recommend immobilization using a walking boot or cast.
