The only nerves in the area are black blue. Pain increases when she folds knee.if kept straight then nerves stiffness is there. A hot press makes the stiffness worse. She can't take the weight of her body. Can't walk.
I have been going to the gym for the past 2-3 weeks and since 3-4 days I have noticed a bump in the left side of my right wrist. It is a slightly stiff bump and pains when I bend my wrist backwards. Its size reduces the day I rest but increases again after going to gym. It is something I should be worried about?
Hello Docs, Hope you all are doing well. For the past week, whenever I go to bed, I experience pain in my foot and calf. To relieve the pain, I need to place a pillow on my foot for pressure, which helps me fall asleep. The pain usually disappears once I start walking. Could you please advise what might be causing this and suggest remedy for this. Thanks to all in advance 😊
I have severe neck pain and I’m unable to sit properly or watch a movie because of the pain. The pain starts from my neck and shoulder and radiates down to my right thumb. When I use a computer mouse, I experience numbness from my thumb up to my elbow, and this has been happening for the past two weeks. Recently, I also developed severe pain in the left side of my buttock, slightly toward the middle/side of the muscle. The pain is so severe that I’m having difficulty walking, and I also have significant back pain even when I’m at rest. I had an X-ray, but it was normal. If the X-ray is normal, what could be causing this severe neck, arm, buttock, and back pain?
Hello Doctor, I am a football player and had suffered an injury in my Achilles tendon of both of my legs a few months back. Initially, I took a few days of rest and resumed playing once there was no pain. However, I again got an injury on my right Achilles tendon, and this time the pain was so severe that I was unable to put weight on my right heel. After undergoing X-ray and ultrasound, I have been diagnosed with Achilles calcific tendinitis on both of my legs. Could you please advise on: 1. How long does recovery typically take in such cases? 2. Will I be able to return to competitive football?
