Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

Patients with COPD represent a high percentage of risk groups, but COPD per say is not a contraindication for any surgery. It all depends on patient's general condition. Once the doctor gives fitness, surgery can be planned. Preoperative check-up of the respiratory system is necessary in order to prevent and avoid complications. The intraoperative care with respiratory and hemodynamic monitoring as well as postoperative care in the ICU will take of everything. Consult an orthopedic surgeon, physician for help.

COPD is not a contra indication for hip surgery. And it requires only spinal anaesthesia.

Need to assess the current status of the Lungs with the help of Plumonologist and with their fitness we can go ahead with surgery.

Hi my Name is Neo am 22 years I have a problem Saturday night I got a knocked on a car door Sunday I experienced pains on my penis now it’s swollen nd it changed where am it’s bruised the skin is getting shinny.

Male | Neo

It seems like you might have hurt your penis while you got hit by the car door. Pain, swelling, and bruising are not unusual in this case. The glossy skin could be a sign of recovery. Make sure you get some rest, wear loose-fitting clothes, and use ice packs to bring down any swelling. If these symptoms get worse or do not improve it would be best to see a doctor as soon as possible.

Rheumatoid factor arthritis problem

Female | 25

Your immune system protects you, but sometimes it mistakes friend for foe. That's what happens in rheumatoid arthritis—immune cells attack your joints instead of defending them. Mornings can be stiff and painful as joints swell. Medications can ease the pain and slow joint damage, but staying active and eating well are just as important in managing this condition.

When can you walk on a sprained ankle?

Male | 43

Ideally no. 

Ankle sprain mainly involves ATFL ligament. its better to immobilise the ankle for 6 weeks and if still pain persists, then will need MRI to plan further course of management

Hello. I recently discovered that when I pour warm water on my thumb it starts to hurt and the pain goes thru the whole arm. It only happens when water is poured on it but when I am not showering or washing my hands my arm feels fine.

Male | 16

Hey, Welcome to ClinicSpots. We're here to help you with your health concerns.

 

Your pain when warm water touches your thumb, radiating through your arm, might be related to nerve sensitivity or an underlying condition like neuropathy. The warmth could be triggering nerve endings, causing the pain to spread. It’s also possible that a minor injury or inflammation is reacting to the temperature change.

Next Steps to Follow

-Avoid Warm Water: Temporarily avoid exposing your thumb to warm water to prevent discomfort.

-Monitor Symptoms: Keep an eye on additional symptoms such as swelling, numbness, or changes in skin color.

-Consult a Healthcare Professional: Schedule an appointment with a doctor, preferably a neurologist or an orthopedic specialist, for a thorough evaluation. Diagnostic tests like nerve conduction studies or imaging might be needed.

-Detailed Examination: The doctor will perform a physical examination and take a medical history to diagnose the issue accurately. They might suggest treatments such as physical therapy, medications, or further tests based on their findings.

Health Tip

Consider gentle health exercises to maintain flexibility and reduce nerve sensitivity. Ensuring good hand ergonomics and avoiding repetitive strain can also help prevent discomfort.

i am suffering from bone problem

Male | 29

You may have an issue­ with your bones. This could stem from lacking calcium or Vitamin D. When bone­s don't receive e­nough of those nutrients, they we­aken. Pain sets in, making moveme­nt difficult. To combat this, consume calcium-rich foods like milk and yogurt. Eat leafy gre­ens high in Vitamin D.

I hurted myself on knees so since 4 hrs it's paining but there is no swelling so should I visit Dr or it will be fine after weeks

Male | 22

Even without swelling, pain can happen due to injury or overuse. Rest your knee, ice it, and elevate it. If the pain doesn't improve in two days, seeing a doctor is wise. Many potential causes exist for knee pain without swelling. Resting, icing, and elevating are good first steps. If the pain persists, seek medical attention.
