What is the duration of pain inflicted after hip replacement surgery? Which medicines are prescribed to ease the pain?
General Physician
Answered on 23rd May '24
Many patients have excellent pain control within 4 to 6 weeks following surgery. But the sensitivity of pain differs from patient to patient; hence the pain control duration may differ from patient to patient. There are many types of medication available to ease pain of a patient post surgery. But the selection of medication is a complex process, where many factors are considered before choosing a medication. Consult an orthopedic surgeon. Hope our answer helps you.

Back burning and chubhan
Male | 25
This might be a result of many things like straining your muscles, sleeping in a bad position, or even having problems with the nerves. You may also experience it if you have been sitting or standing for long periods or lifting heavy objects. To relieve this, you can do some gentle stretching exercises, correct your posture, and use warm pads. In case this feeling continues, visit an orthopedist.

Index finger ki upar pain ho raha hai
Female | 21
Suppose your index finger experienced pain at the top, several explanations are possible: excessive typing or from activities like tossing a frisbee. At times, such pain might be due to an infection or injury. Give your finger rest and steer clear of the activities causing the pain to worsen. The application of ice packs can significantly reduce swelling and aches as well. If the pain doesn't get better or even becomes sharper, consult with an orthopedist.

Why does ac joint hurt?
Here are many things that can happen to the AC joint, but the most common conditions are arthritis, fractures and separations. Arthritis is a condition characterized by loss of cartilage in the joint, which is essentially wear and tear of the smooth cartilage that allows the bones to move smoothly. Like arthritis at other joints in the body, it is characterized by pain and swelling, especially with activity. Over time, the joint can wear out and get larger, with spurs forming around it. These spurs are a sign of the arthritis and not a cause of the pain. Reaching across the body toward the other arm aggravates arthritis at the AC joint. AC joint wear and tear is common in weight lifters, especially among those who bench press and to a lesser extent, military press. In weight lifters the arthritis at the AC joint has a special name — osteolysis.

Sir my right hand shoulder is paining since from 3 years and it pains very harder and also get swallowed
Female | 18
The symptoms you are experiencing could be a sign of a Frozen Shoulder which is when the tissue in your shoulder becomes thicker and tighter than normal. A physical therapist can suggest some exercises that will help improve your range of motion while reducing discomfort.

Both legs Foot drop problem since 2 years. I am very upset for this. So please tell me can you treat this? Please let me know.
Male | 26
You need thorough clinical examination with a multidisciplinary team of Orthopedic Surgeon/Neurologists. We need to find out at which neural level is the existing problem Eg. Spinal cord, Peripheral nerve. This should be done ASAP which would improve the chances of recovery.

I had TKR done in both knees 12 years ago. Even after op. I was not relieved of pain but am leading an active life style somehow mwalkinganaging it as I always fear inactivity will worsen my condition. Now for the past one week I am experiencing severe burning combined with pain when walking. What could be the reason.
Female | 70
The burning pain and pain when you walk can result from various causes, like inflammation, infection, or contradicting the wear and tear of the artificial knee parts. However, it is vital to get it checked by an orthopedist as soon as possible to identify the problem and get the proper treatment.

Since past 2 days suffering through left leg pain with severe hip pain that's also in left side
Female | 17
Your left leg and hip may be bothering you. Pain in both of those places could be caused by something such as sciatica, which is a nerve problem. Another reason might be muscle strain or arthritis. You should rest the area that hurts, put some ice on it, and if it’s bearable, gently stretch. If this doesn’t help, you should see an orthopedist.

My knees keep popping every tine I move it I am afraid
Male | 43
If your knees keep popping every time you move them, it could be due to ligament issues, arthritis, or even a simple gas buildup in the joint. It's best to visit an orthopedic doctor to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Ignoring it might lead to more complications, so please consult a specialist soon.

Hi Im a 26yo female, I got a lumbar MRI done because my back pain was giving me trouble to do daily activities, I cant bend forward, walk longish distances and it feels tight and hurts even when sitting or laying all these symptoms were random, I havent fell nor lifted anything too heavy, results say I have buldging associated with anular tear discs L4 and L5. And deshidrated discs L4 and L5. What does this mean? Will I get better without surgery? Will I ever get back to normal? Will I ever be able to go back to the gym and cycling? I WILL take the results to the doctor once I get my paycheck but I wanna get a 2nd opinion in the meantime. Thanks
Female | 26
Bulging and annular tear discs at L4 and L5 mean the discs in your lower back are damaged and dehydrated, which is causing your pain. Most cases improve with physical therapy, rest, and medication, and surgery is often not needed. However, it's important to consult an orthopedic specialist for a proper treatment plan. They can give you the best advice on recovery and return to activities like gym and cycling.

I'm afjal after 10 days my back pan my uric acid test report for 5.9
Male | 29
Back pain can happen for many reasons, like strained muscles or poor posture. A uric acid level of 5.9 might be high and could be due to gout, which occurs when crystals form in the joints. To lower uric acid, drink plenty of water and avoid red meat and alcohol, as they are high in purines. It's also important to maintain good posture, do gentle stretches, and avoid lifting heavy objects to protect your back. If the pain continues, seeing an orthopedist is the best way to get proper advice and treatment.

I have broken a bone in my hand which was hit a month ago, but even after a month, the bone is not joint. There is also a plaster bandage on the hand.
Male | 27
It may take longer for the bone to heal if it has not done so after four weeks. Factors such as blood supply or movement at the site of the fracture can cause this. While you should keep the plaster cast on and avoid using the hand too much, it would also be best to visit an orthopedist again so that they can offer further advice on how to care for and ensure proper healing of the bone.

Your feet may hurt and swell after walking because of overuse, ill-fitting shoes, or medical conditions. Consider taking breaks during long walks, wearing comfortable shoes. Seek help from an orthopedist if the pain still persists.
