Why Is My Lower Back Pain Worsening Despite Treatment?

Patient's Query

I am 20 year old man, suffering with lower back pain beside either sides of spine. I've been lifting weights for quite a while now, recently whilst I was performing my deadlift (I hit it heavy past my capability)with a very bad posture and I heard a "chik" sound from my back the sound was negotiably light, but the actual pain started from there, as I'm a computer science student I'll have to sit on PC for hours...this problem has now limited my mobility and when I bend at certain angles it hurts like it wont allow me to bend and it even happens when i sit on same position for hours.... I've done several stretches and applied move creams for 2 3 days consecutively yet no difference... What should I do this problem is very annoying..

Answered by Dr. Pramod Bhor

The incident that caused the sound you heard could be a muscle contraction or ligament stress. This phenomenon is a very frequent case when the back gets overloaded, and for that reason, the kinks distribute the pain to your left and right sides. Trying to alleviate the problem, in this case, applying ice packs and performing gentle stretches can be the best ones. However, if the pain persists, consult an orthopedist for further evaluation.

Hello, I fell on some stairs yesterday and landed straight on my hip. I was able to get up and walk, but the pain became really bad after about 30 minutes. I couldn’t and still can’t put any weight on my left fod. My hip is not swollen and not bruised. I have been taking pain meds but it is not helping. What should I do

It's possible that you may have sustained an injury to your hip or surrounding area. Seek medical attention from an orthopedic in this situation, especially if the pain is severe and you are unable to bear weight on your left foot.

Sir/madam I am a student,my problem is my little finger joint dislocated it's nearly 20 days ago surgery was done successfully,but my finger is not folding

Male | 19

Your finger is likely struggling to bend properly after the surgery to fix its dislocated state. This issue arises due to swelling or stiffness, which can occur sometimes. To enhance its bending ability, gently move it and follow the exercises suggested by your physical therapist diligently. These exercises aim to strengthen your finger and boost its flexibility gradually.

Painful thumb nail of leg pak thay evo

Female | 21

You might be having an ingrown toenail. This is when the toenail no longer grows on the skin but rather grows inside it. It can bring on further irritation, discoloration, and the build-up of bodily fluids. Tight shoes, or, on the other hand, improper nail clipping, are two principal causes of this situation. To get relief, you can soak your foot in some warm water and gently try to lift your nail. In cases of intense pain, visit an orthopedist for treatment.

As a medical expert, the first advice to you is to consult a reputable orthopaedic surgeon for the correct diagnosis and treatment plan for your femur condylar bone fracture. This may intensify a possible complication later. Surgery might be necessary, but this matter can be only clarified only after a thorough examination of your case.

Male | 21

It is common to be concerned about the plate and wire in your elbow after a fracture surgery. They can sometimes make you feel uncomfortable or limit your range of motion. If this is your stage, the best point-to-point conversation with an orthopedist who can examine the health situation is required. Removal of the bone plate and wire may be the dislodging of the most harm there is if the doctor were to intervene and help you attain maximum elasticity in the hand.

I fractured my patella on 7/9/24, and was crap bandge for a week, and I had cast plaster from 15/9/24, plaster was removed on 14/10/24, knee is still swollen, can't bend knee, can't lift leg up, had x-ray, crack is still visible. The doctor said that the bone that is formed now cannot be seen on xray, after three months xray will not show the cracks.

Male | 32

You have a fractured patella. Common symptoms include swelling and difficulty bending or lifting your leg. A visible fracture line on the X-ray means the bone is still healing. Over time, the bone will become stronger, and the cracks will disappear. Continue resting your knee, doing gentle exercises, and consult your orthopedist for guidance. The healing process takes time, but you will recover.

Hi good morning sir, I daughter is suffering knee swelling & skin redness issue since yesterday. Fever also getting. Can you please suggest this and advance root cause of issue?

Female | 17 months

This could be your daughter's knee infection. If a knee has swollen up, become red and warm to touch, and there is a fever, it could be a sign of infection. This may be due to bacteria that enter the knee joint. She needs to see an orthopedist without delay. Infections can be vitally important and require the right treatment with antibiotics.
