So i had gout 6 months ago i followed all the medication told by my doctor, I had swelling around my big toe area which is then Reduced to 95% and my big toe got painless, movement became normal also I had normal uric acid level after the lab test
But since those 6 months I still have that remaining 5% painless non red swelling in my big toe what to do now
2 hours ago I bent down to throw garbage in dusbin and i had sudden sharp pain in my lower back and from then on i am not able to move as i am having severe pain in my back.. i have applied vicks almost 2 times but the pain started again when i try to move
I am a 16 year old male.
I had a displaced both-bone forearm fracture that was reduced and placed in a plaster cast about a week ago.
My follow-up X-ray was checked by the doctor, who said the alignment is fine, with only a little bending.
For the last ~2 days after the follow up session, I have had significant tightness and stiffness feeling around my wrist, especially on one side, which feels different from before.
When I bend/open my fingers, particularly the little finger, I feel some pain/tightness around the wrist.
I also occasionally get brief burning/hot-water-like or nerve-type sensations and a heartbeat/pulsing feeling around my elbow .
My fingers are warm, normally coloured and movable, and I do not have constant or severe pain.
Could this be swelling, nerve/tendon irritation, or pressure from the cast, and should the cast be checked or adjusted?
Also, given my age and isolated arm fracture, is there any need for a blood thinner, or is it unnecessary in my case?
I have been dealing with severe plantar fasciitis issue, have tried almost everything, Hot-Cold bath for foot, painkillers, rolling foot over cold bottle, vitamin D, Collagen supplements, even took, nervite(for nerve pain).
I have consulted to 2-3 doctors but still the issue remains also with plantar fasciitis pain, now i feel pain on the back of my heel, a bit of burning sensation as well.
The pain reduces with rest but comes back after slight activity.
Is there any permanent relief solution to this or not?
Does prp works in this case?
My wife is 36 years old and has had persistent right-sided pain for more than 10 months. The pain starts near the lower part of the right shoulder blade and spreads upward toward the neck and into the right arm.
We have not received a clear diagnosis yet. We would like a specialist evaluation to understand whether the pain could be related to the cervical spine, nerve irritation/compression, shoulder-blade muscles, upper back, or shoulder joint.
We are considering an MRI, but would prefer advice on the most appropriate targeted scan rather than a whole-body MRI. Please also advise whether neurological examination, nerve-conduction studies, X-ray, physiotherapy assessment, or other tests would be useful.
