For over a year now I have had something that sicks out at the bottom of my ribcage on the left. It fells like the end of a rib sticking out and hurts when being pushed on. I did lose quite a lot of weight a year and a half ago and it's ever since then that I have noticed it. It is visibly sticking out when I am just standing normally.

You might have costochondritis. This is when the cartilage in your ribs gets inflamed, which usually causes pain and tenderness. It may be related to weight loss and sometimes comes on after an illness. To help relieve the pain, you can do some gentle stretching, use heat packs, or take over-the-counter painkillers such as ibuprofen.

Hello! My name is Sergey, and I am a close acquaintance of the patient who has sent you this inquiry regarding consultation for implantation. The patient is 37 years old and sustained an injury 6 years ago due to the fall of a heavy object. Several surgeries were performed, and the amputation of the left big toe was carried out. In this regard, we would like to inquire if you have a solution for this issue. We are interested in proceeding with the procedure of implanting an artificial toe with load-bearing functionality. Best regards!

Male | 37

One balance and mobility issue that might arise with a patient losing their toe is that they would have an imbalance. We know the pain and suffering that occurs after such an injury, and the patients are aware of this too. For the patients, your friend, and people such as him, artificial toe prosthetics have been developed which could give back some of the lost functions. A fake toe is sure to offer load-bearing support and improve the overall quality of life. We suggest a consultation with some orthopedic prosthesis field experts so that they can discuss with you which alternative is the right one for your friend. By such a means of professional advice, the best solutions will be gained.
