Doctor advised me to get my right knee mri done as it was hurting a lot. He told me earlier that I have the beginning of arthritis. Also, I've fallen on this knee 4-5 times in the last 2 years, and fractured my ankle 3 months back which led to plaster. If you can please give me some clarity about the findings. Written report is taking time.
My mother, Rubina Malik, is 57 years old and has diabetes. She was enrolled in Practo’s Diabetes Reversal Program. Her blood sugar readings from yesterday were: Fasting/empty stomach: 123 mg/dL Post-dinner: 188 mg/dL She weighs around 54 kg and goes for a walk twice a day. She is currently experiencing a problem in her left thigh/leg. She feels a tightness in the thigh, and she is unable to bend the leg properly. She also feels as if the veins or nerves in that area are under extreme pressure and might burst. The sensation is quite uncomfortable. We consulted a local orthopedic specialist in Ratlam. The doctor gave her an injection, after which she felt some relief, and prescribed medicines. However, the problem has not completely resolved. A local physiotherapist told us that there is no proper treatment for this problem. Her diabetes doctor from Practo has now prescribed Winnaxon Plus injection.

Hello Doctor, I am a 24-year-old male. I have been experiencing persistent tingling/pricking sensation (jhanjhanahat) in the sole of my foot for the past few days. It is mainly present from the forefoot/toes area towards the middle of the sole. I do not have significant pain or weakness, but the tingling sensation is persistent. It started after I suddenly increased my walking to around 10,000 steps per day. I have tried rest and warm/cold water therapy, but there has been no significant improvement so far. Could you please advise what could be causing this and whether I need any examination or blood tests such as Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, blood sugar, etc.? Also, please let me know if I should continue walking/exercising or take rest for now
