Good afternoon, I have been having waist pain frequently in the past few weeks. Yesterday I was having muscle pull consistently for several hours intermittently

Male | 53

It appears that you have recently been having some lower back pain as well as muscle pulls. These could be due to things like bad posture, overworking yourself or even just pulling a muscle while making a sudden move. To reduce your discomfort, try doing some gentle stretches, using warm packs, and resting when necessary.

When can i eat chips after jaw surgery?

Male | 34

Since the treatment of jaw surgery, solid as well as crunchy foods similar to chips will be reintroduced into your diet after a period based on how fast you heal. Generally speaking it’s a good idea to start with soft or liquid diet right after the surgery and progressively move up towards firmer consistencies as your doctor recommends. In the first phase, crunchy foods are avoided for several weeks in order to let the jaw heal without putting it under additional strain. Stick to the particular dietary recommendations given by your surgeon, in order for a smooth recovery process.

Female | 21

This kind of pain can be caused by muscle strain or inflammation. The pain may also occur if the muscles are overused or due to poor posture. While taking pain relievers can help for some time, resting the affected area, applying ice packs, and avoiding activities that aggravate it are equally important. In case the pain does not go away, please consult an orthopedist.

I’m suffering from a severe cold with a headache and particularly intense pain in the back of my neck. It’s causing me trouble when bending, getting up, and even eating. Could you recommend some medication for me? I took LCZ 5mg this morning, but it hasn’t provided relief.Also I have slight cough and a sensation in my nose.

Your symptoms suggest sinusitis. Inflamed sinuses cause headaches, neck pain, coughs, congestion, runny noses. Over-the-counter ibuprofen reduces pain, inflammation. Drinking fluids, using humidifiers eases discomfort. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, see a doctor promptly.

Why is that my waist right side is paining me that I even find it difficult to walk and I can't even stand straight but when I touch my waist I can't feel any pain but I'm rather feeling It inside me making it difficult for me to walk and I can't even stand straight

Male | 20

You may be having muscle pain on your right side. This can happen when you use your muscles too much or twist them in that part of your body. Even though it's not painful to the touch, the discomfort in your body is causing you to walk awkwardly and to stand upright. Resting, applying ice, and gentle stretching will help lessen the pain. If it doesn't improve, it's best to get the advice of a orthopedist.

Suffering from spine pain since 2 years.

Female | 45

Incorrect posture, injuries, and medical conditions can cause back pain. This might make it hard for you to move and make you sore or stiff. Exercises aimed at strengthening the muscles in your back and improving your posture help a lot. Also, try sitting or standing properly by using ergonomics to relieve the pain. When these do not work, get advice from an orthopedist who will check it out further and then give treatment options if necessary.

Hey I’m getting a weird feeling in my right foot it comes a goes but it feels like a pulse movement it feels weird I’m not sure what it is

Female | 24

You might be feeling a throbbing sensation in your right foot. The constriction of blood vessels or the poor circulation of that area can be the cause. In rare instances, stress, anxiety, or the overconsumption of caffeine, may lead to the same feeling. Walk around and try to keep your foot upright for a while. Talking to an orthopedist is advisable if the feeling persists or gets worse.
