Why do I feel needle-like pain in my arm?

Patient's Query

needle like pain in the arm

Orthopedic

Answered by Dr. Pramod Bhor

This type of pain could be due to various reasons like a pinched nerve, muscle strain, or even issues with blood vessels. Sometimes, repetitive movements or poor posture can also cause this sensation. I recommend giving your arm some rest, applying a warm compress, and gently stretching the area. If the pain persists or worsens, it's best to schedule an appointment with orthopedist so that he can take a closer look and ensure it's nothing serious.

Hello, I had a partial tear in the patellar tendon in the right knee. The doctor gave me a belt to stabilize the leg, which was loose for more than a month. At the appointment, he said that the tear had healed without me taking an x-ray. He sent me to physical rehabilitation to do the classes. My question is, can I walk without that belt and crutch? To strengthen the thigh muscle

ذكر | 38

Your kneecap tendon has healed, which is great! If you feel unsure about walking without support, that's normal. It's important to start slowly and listen to your body. If you experience any discomfort, continue using a knee brace or crutches. As you grow stronger and more stable, gradually reduce your reliance on them.

Leg-lengthening surgery is a delicate and dangerous operation that has to be undertaken by experienced specialist orthopedic surgeons. It will be better to avoid “cheap” clinics for this surgery that is not about saving money at all costs, but rather ensuring the highest level of care and expertise.

Lower back pain due to a herniated disk can cause pain in the lower abdomen and testicles. Get medical attention for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

A couple of days ago I was getting up off the floor after some push ups and lost my balance a bit and felt several cracks/pops from my left knee. I was crouching on the balls of my feet falling backwards and to try to regain balance I was leaning my knees forward in full flexion, with my thighs pressing onto my calves. I kind of collapsed one the spot, more due to surprise than in pain but it was sore after that. Now it's not really hindering me while I'm on my feet at all aside from a sense of fragility if that makes sense, though that could be more mental to be honest. However I do start to feel a tiny bit of pain and a combination of discomfort and weakness when I flex my knee approaching a 90 degrees with my thigh, both behind my knee around the end of my thigh and on top of my knee towards the outside and a bit below the kneecap.

Male | 25

Flexing your knee at around 90 degrees causes pain behind and on top of the knee. It's essential to seek medical advice to diagnose and treat the issue properly. Avoid putting stress on the knee and consider resting and elevating it until you see an orthopedist.

Male | 35

These symptoms could be due to a condition called fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia causes the pain to be distributed all over the body, apart from other symptoms like constipation and difficulty in breathing. It's essential to see an orthopedist to discuss your symptoms and get the right treatment to help manage the pain and discomfort.

I am Mamta devi.before 4 months did my hip replacement surgery,and that time my bone was crack .now i have pain' in my surgery place.what i do?

Female | 65

One of the significant problems that you have to recognize and take care of is the pain in your hip that you are experiencing after the surgery. Pain at the surgery site could be a symptom of various issues such as an infection, loosening of the implant, or a fracture. The hypothesis of the pain caused by the previously broken bone is still a possibility. Visit your orthopedic surgeon for an evaluation and discuss treatment options.

I’m 12 and over this year i have been getting wrist pain. it goes and comes back

Male | 12

Wrist pain is common among young people and often results from repetitive hand movements, like writing or playing sports. As your body grows, your muscles and tendons might lag, leading to discomfort. To help, try resting your wrist, applying a cold pack, and doing gentle stretches. If the pain persists, it's best to consult an orthopedist.

It's common to have slight asymmetries between body sides. Muscle development or alignment can sometimes cause this. Since it's not painful, it's likely not concerning. However, if you experience new symptoms or changes, visit an orthopedist.

Please I have severe pain in my lower back down to both of my legs

Male | 24

You might be suffering from sciatica, a condition where pain starts in your lower back and goes down to your legs. This happens because a nerve in your back is under pressure. The pain can be shooting, sharp, or constant. To relieve the pain, it is important to rest, use heat or ice packs, and do gentle stretches. If the pain persists, it's best to see an orthopedist for further tests and treatment options.

I am 24years old male and met with an road accident 9 days back and was on some pain killers and i got my x-ray and CT scan done 3 days back that is 6 days post accident the report stated it's avulsion fracture of posterior cruciate ligament. Minimal posterior, cranial displacement of the fracture fragments noted.the consulted doctor suggested surgery is the option and i am looking to avoid it. I will be really happy if some doctor has a opinion otherwise.

Male | 24

yes .. Acupuncture can heal internally almost everything which is not possible in allopathy medicine.

Acupuncture puts the body in self correcting zone and since body has ability to self heal and repair you can experience wonderful results.

I am 53 yrs old recently I had surgery from fortis hospital Post operative appearance with orthopedic device, plates and screws seen in situ. There is evidence of a persistent fracture line in the distal femoral condyle with extensions involving patellofemoral articular surface, intercondylar notch, medial and lateral condyle reaching tibiofemoral articular surface. Proximal visualized shaft of left femur shows diffuse cortical thickening, coarse trabeculation and patchy intramedullary sclerosis. Proximal end of fracture does not show any clearly demonstrable callus formation or periosteal reaction suggesting hypo/oligotrophic fracture healing. Multiple well defined small bony hyperdensities are seen within the fracture line. Extensive surrounding soft tissue stranding and fluid density seen within the intercondylar notch area. Osteoarthritic changes seen involving the knee joint with tibial spiking, marginal osteophytes, significantly reduced medial tibiofemoral joint space.

Female | 23

You might be having a rough time with your quadricep tendinitis. The symptoms you're going through, like pain moving from your knees to your thighs, can be a challenge. This kind of injury can be caused by overusing your legs or not warming up properly before exercise. To help with this, try doing some gentle stretches and avoiding activities that worsen the pain. As well, applying ice packs and elevating your legs can provide some relief.

Male | 32

It's tough to consider surgery as an option. A slipped disc can cause nerve blockage, leading to pain and discomfort. But there are many cases of slipped discs can improve with non-surgical treatments. Physical therapy, pain management techniques, and lifestyle modifications can often help relieve symptoms. It's essential to follow advice of your neurosurgeon while also exploring conservative treatments. Stay in touch with with him for regular check-ups and adjustments to your treatment plan.

You likely have a muscle strain on your back's right side. It's causing chest pain. Muscle strains happen when you move stressfully. You'll feel pain while moving. Rest up. Ice the area. Take over-the-counter pain meds if needed. Try gentle stretches. Avoid activities worsening the pain. If it doesn't improve or worsens, see an orthopedist
