Sacroiliac joint dysfunction is frequently assumed to be a source of lower back and/or leg discomfort, however it is sometimes difficult to diagnose. The sacroiliac joint, which connects the triangle bone at the bottom of the spine (the sacrum) to the pelvis, can cause discomfort if its natural mobility is disrupted. More precisely, sacroiliac joint discomfort can be caused by excessive or insufficient movement.
• Leg pain produced by sacroiliac joint dysfunction can be difficult to distinguish from radiating leg pain caused by lumbar disc herniation (sciatica) since they can feel quite similar.
• The major reasons of SI joint dysfunction include - Too much or lack of movement.
• Too much movement in the sacroiliac joint (hypermobility or instability) can cause the pelvis to feel unstable and produce discomfort. Excessive mobility causes pain in the lower back and/or hip, which can extend into the groin, whereas lack of movement (hypomobility or fixation) can result in muscular tension, discomfort, and a reduction in mobility.
• Sacroiliac joint inflammation (sacroiliitis) can also cause pelvic discomfort and stiffness. Inflammation may arise as a result of sacroiliac joint dysfunction or as a result of an infection, rheumatoid disease, or other cause.
• There is no one-size-fits-all solution for controlling SI joint discomfort. For successful pain management, a combination of non-surgical therapies is frequently required.
• Treatment includes – resting for 1 to 2 days, applying ice or heat (applying it to lower back reduces inflammation and alleviates pain and discomfort; applying around the joint provides relief from pain), pain relievers like paracetamol and inflammation treating agents such as NSAID’s are recommended in case of mild or moderate pain relief. Muscle relaxants or high-end pain killers can be prescribed in case of episodes of severe and acute pain, Manual manipulation can be effective if sacroiliac joint pain is caused due to too little movement, Support or braces can be used to stabilize the pelvic area and sacroiliac joint injections such as anaesthetics such as lidocaine along with anti-inflammatory medicine like corticosteroids are given to reduce inflammation and pain.
Consult an Orthopedics for further investigations and customised treatment.

Can I use stationary cycle for rehabilitation of fractured patella after 80 days of surgery

Male | 44

Your knee feels stiff after surgery. Your bone heals slowly. Using a cycle helps strengthen your knee. You can ride slowly without pain. Yet be careful not to hurt yourself again. Follow your doctor's advice at all times. Cycling improves your movement while keeping safe.

Hi Im a 26yo female, I got a lumbar MRI done because my back pain was giving me trouble to do daily activities, I cant bend forward, walk longish distances and it feels tight and hurts even when sitting or laying all these symptoms were random, I havent fell nor lifted anything too heavy, results say I have buldging associated with anular tear discs L4 and L5. And deshidrated discs L4 and L5. What does this mean? Will I get better without surgery? Will I ever get back to normal? Will I ever be able to go back to the gym and cycling? I WILL take the results to the doctor once I get my paycheck but I wanna get a 2nd opinion in the meantime. Thanks

Female | 26

Bulging and annular tear discs at L4 and L5 mean the discs in your lower back are damaged and dehydrated, which is causing your pain. Most cases improve with physical therapy, rest, and medication, and surgery is often not needed. However, it's important to consult an orthopedic specialist for a proper treatment plan. They can give you the best advice on recovery and return to activities like gym and cycling.

Hi I am not feeling well and having pain in knees

Male | 24

I feel bad seeing or experiencing this pain in your knees. Pain like this can be due to different causes such as inflammation, arthritis, or just a simple physical strain. It is necessary to check for any swelling, redness, or problems with movement. Make resting your joints, using ice for 15-20 minutes, and elevating your legs your first option to remove the discomfort. Also, OTC painkillers can be of use. Nevertheless, if you experience any persistent or intensified symptoms, please go to the orthopedist for an inclusive examination and personalized treatment plan.

Hi, I'm a 22 year old male with back pain, I've been to doctors loads of times for the past 7-8 months but all they been telling me is to take pain killers and exercise, ive had a MRI scan which showed L5-S1 left subarticular disc protrusion and L4-5 facet joint arthropathies is that right for them to keep telling me to exercise?

Male | 22

The MRI scan reveals a disc disorder, along with an ache from the facet joint. Workouts can make your muscles healthier and render them more flexible, which is very helpful when managing the pain. You really must stick to the exercise plan of the physiotherapist without fail to reduce the damage caused. Painkillers are one way of pain relief, but the long-term solution comes from exercise, and maybe a few more such treatments like physical therapy depending on the severity of the problem.

Back burning and chubhan

Male | 25

This might be a result of many things like straining your muscles, sleeping in a bad position, or even having problems with the nerves. You may also experience it if you have been sitting or standing for long periods or lifting heavy objects. To relieve this, you can do some gentle stretching exercises, correct your posture, and use warm pads. In case this feeling continues, visit an orthopedist.

What to expect 5 months after knee replacement?

Regarding what to expect 5 months after knee replacement - If there are no complications then you can work freely as per your wish.

But after knee replacement, some patients do not recover as quickly as others. Consider the following:

Patients who conducted knee-strengthening activities before surgery have a better chance of recovering faster.
It may take longer recovery time for those patients who are older, smoke, or have other medical concerns.

Note: Although deviations from the "normal" recovery timeframe is not always expected, but such fluctuations are usually acceptable as long as the patient, doctor, and physical therapist continue to collaborate in the pursuit of a complete recovery.

Hello, I am Leah i’m 15 years old and i’ve been having back problems since last october. it’s been affecting my whole life and i have no clue what i should do.

Female | 15

One big reason for this is bad posture. It’s also possible if you were carrying around something heavy like school books in a backpack or if pulled a muscle. Here are some tips that might help: try to sit up straight when you’re sitting down, don’t pick up anything too heavy, and make sure your desk is set up correctly for you. You could also try doing some easy exercises or gentle stretches – they sometimes provide relief from these sorts of aches and pains. But if nothing changes and the ache won’t go away, you must talk to an adult about seeing an orthopedist who knows more about health.

I have been experiencing a persistent back pain in the middle section at the left side only. I used to feel it temporarily now it is chronic. No pain can be felt on the surface, but pain is still felt internally. What is wrong with me?

Female | 18

This kind of hurt usually means that there is a damaged muscle or even possibly a slipped disc. These can cause long-term problems with hurting all the time. The main things you can do to help yourself are to rest a lot, put something cold or warm on it, and maybe try easy exercises to make your muscles stronger in that area behind you. If you don’t feel better after doing these things for some days then go and see an orthopedist.

Today, my father injured his leg with a rod from a moving bike. Thankfully, the injury is not severe, but his leg is swollen and painful. We are applying an ice pack and using Volini spray. There is no redness, numbness, wound, or cut. A few days ago, he also experienced muscle cramps in the same leg. I'm very worried. Could you please advise me on what to do next?

Male | 49

A muscle injury may have developed in your father due to the impact of a rod striking his leg. This type of injury often results in swelling and pain as well. The muscle cramps he had earlier may be linked to this incident. Continue applying the ice pack and using Volini spray for swelling and pain relief. Prevent him from exposing his leg to any extra tension and ensure he does not move his injured leg. If the pain remains or gets worse, visit an orthopedist.

Female | 39

According to the symptoms you are going through, it is likely that you bruised your knee or your muscles or tendons around it got injured. This might present as a combination of swelling, pain, and immobility of the leg Lie down while putting your feet up, apply a cold compress to the area, stretch your leg, and wrap it with a long elastic bandage to reduce swelling. If the pain persists, replays, or intensifies, or you find it hard to bear its weight, go to the orthopaedist.
