I have a fracture on the Fibula head due to fall from bike 2 weeks ago. The doctor didn't apply any cast/plaster but advised to use hinged braces. Only cycling, sitting crossed legs, stairs up down is restricted by the doctor. But I'm walking minimally(Partial weight on the fractured leg) and time of the time sitting keeping my leg straight. Pain and swelling reduced. But stiffness around the knee and pain during flexion of the knee. Should it heal without cast/plaster and how many days would it take to walk normally?
My mother is facing issues while walking. She sometimes loses balance while walking. And have pain in legs as well. What could be the reason for this and any medication for this ?
A heavy pan fell on my right foot about 10 months ago, not sure if this is the reason but whenever I play sports etc, a shooting pain starts from my thumb till my mid foot area and a bulge appears there. RICE method helps a little but is this a permanent solution everytime since it's recurring? Do I need to consult a doctor? If yes, which specialist? Bone or nerves?
I have a fibula head fracture in Right Knee. The doctor advised not to do plaster and advised to use hinged braces. Would it heal without plaster?
Suddenly, my right hand feels numb and weak. I am also experiencing a mild pain in my right hand. Some time ago, I sustained an injury to my left knee, and that old injury has flared up again. I am finding it difficult to climb up to elevated places. I am very poor; I would be deeply grateful if someone could offer me some assistance.
