I am 3 months postpartum, from 7-8 months of pregnancy I was experiencing pain in my back left side , I'm not able to lift my back in a lying position. After delivery it worsened and now I have pain in my knee on the same side. It causes pain when I move my knee. I think there is some nerve problem from the back up to knees . If I sleep straight I will not be able to move the ankle too and knee. I am taking calcium supplement BONE SURE LC and MOKTEL prescribed by my gynaecologist. Now what should I do ? Is it go with time or should I start any exercise or meet with any doctor?
Which doctor should I connect with : physiotherapist or orthopedic?
I am F30 overweight . I am having pain on bottom of the foot of my left leg . Position is around 2 fingers below my middle toe. I feel it's a muscular pain and it has been persistent for past 8 days now . I woke up with slight pain and then I played badminton bare foot for 1 hour . Can that be the cause ?? But it has not reduced in past one week .

Got meniscus injury in left knee in Jan 2026 and has been in rehab, Grade 1 lateral complex tear with Discoid Meniscus, knocked knees - Has started walking but slow without walker - getting catches or snaps and not locks 2 inches below meniscus in the back upper calf left side and in the front left side 2 inches below meniscus joint line or tear - during the catch usually pains in the front 2 inches below meniscus left side of left affected knee for 1-2 seconds but sometimes the current feels till lower down in the last 2 toes.
Overall the intensity of snaps which was 50 to 100 in a month in March has gone down to 10 snaps a month and that too during turns or certain angles of the leg below knee ..
Otherwise NO clinical symptoms
All the physiotherapist say NO to surgery whereas 80% orthopedics say Yes to surgery just on the basis of the words "Discoid" & "Complex" to which many Doctors specially physios dont agree saying - born with discoid, tear is in lateral part of lateral menisc
My heavy cooler fell near my ankle and it's swollen there . It's been more than week and I don't think swelling is reducing much . I guess I used crepe bandage and sumo gel to reduce swelling . I can easily walk and even play Badminton . Maybe when I rotate my ankle it hurts .
Last year my mother started to have knee pain in her left knee. Took her to an ortho doctor, x ray showed knee osteoarthritis and he prescribed medicines but didn't help much. He suggested surgery but mother wanted to try physiotherapy. She's only had a few sessions but physiotherapy has helped.
My query is few months before her knee pain started she was hospitalised for kidney stones. After the stones were removed, doctor changed her diabetic medicines. Instead of taking Cerapin xr 500 during breakfast and dinner he prescribed Trajenta 5 during breakfast and Gluconorm SR 850 during dinner.
I read Trajenta 5 side effect can cause joint pain. Can any doctor verify this? My mother doesn't have any visible swelling or redness in the knees.
