Hi, my mother has Osteoarthritis and thus she suffers from chronic knee pain. Just wanted to know how effective stem cell therapy may be in her case. I also have a few doubts listed below: What are the benefits of stem cell therapy for osteoarthritis (if any)? What is the down-time after the procedure? My mother is a teacher and doesn't have the provision to take too many leaves. How much a procedure like this likely to cost?

As per my understanding you want to know stem cell treatment for knee osteoarthritis. Recently one of the companies has announced that it has received approval from FDA, for clinical trial, for use of stem cell therapy for knee osteoarthritis. So results of stem cell therapy for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis are still awaited. Consult an orthopedic, who on examining the patient will guide you with the best treatment available for the patient. Consult Orthopedic Physiotherapy doctors in Mumbai, or any other city which you feel will be better. Hope this has helped you.

Treatment of knee joint osteoarthritis depends on age, clinical examination and radiological finding (grading of osteoarthritis).
pain is chronic and osteoarthritis garde is 3 /4 .there is no role of conservation management like PRP and all.
Stem cell might help in stage 1 osteoarthritis but not proven yet...
send you details or x-ray-for further management..

Injury on the leg caused by stepping on a nail

Male | 4

If you step on a nail, wash the spot with soap and water right away. This cleans the cut. Then put a new bandage on it. Check the cut every day. Look for signs of infection. That can mean redness, feeling hot, or pus coming out. If you see those things, go to the doctor fast. They can give you medicine to keep the infection from getting worse.

Muscle strain, poor posture, nerve compression, or underlying medical conditions can cause pain in the neck & shoulders. Some cases may not be serious and can be attributed to minor issues like muscle tension. Consult an orthopedic for diagnosis.

I’m 22 years and I’m having thigh ache and I used pain relief last month and it stopped but now it’s aching me again

Female | 22

Thigh pain can be due to various reasons such as muscle strain, overuse, or even bad posture. Sometimes, you're sitting for too long, and you'll feel your thighs are hurting. Alongside this issue is that you are sitting for a long time and your thighs hurt. Do some light stretching, and apply heat to the affected area. Be active and avoid long periods of sitting down to allow them to feel well.

I am 39 years old and have been experiencing back pain for over 2 years. About a year ago, I started feeling pain in my lower back, which eventually subsided, but for the past 3 to 4 months, the pain has returned and now extends to my thigh and leg. When I wake up, the pain improves after some movement. I find it difficult to sleep straight in bed due to lipomas on my side waist that cause discomfort when pressed, resulting in pain. When I get out of bed, my body aches, and my legs feel weak and painful. Occasionally, I take a Nimesulide tablet, which provides relief for 5 to 6 days. Additionally, I experience pain in different parts of my body on different days, such as my chest, arms, and neck. What should I do?

Male | 40

The pain radiating from the lumbar region to the hip and leg is likely to be a sciatica, which is caused by irritation of the sciatic nerve. Thus it is advisable to wear proper clothes. The lipomas may also be located on your side waist. It is so important to have a thorough evaluation by an orthopedist to establish the exact cause of your symptoms and create a proper management plan.

You most likely suffer from back pain. It can result from various causes such as poor posture, an injury, or underlying diseases. I advise seeing an orthopedist.

Conclusion: Hypointense fracture of the metaphysis of the tibia proximally with stress edema of the bone. Moderate suprapatellar and minor intra-articular effusion. Irritation of suprapatellar fat. ACL femoral condyle distension. Possible partial rupture of the anterior root of the lateral meniscus. Distension of the proximal tibiofibular joint.

Female | 27

After going through your tests, it looks like the shinbone is fractured near the joint with a gradually progressive fracture inside the bone. Besides, there is liquid in the knee with some tension in the fat pad over the patella. The anterior ligament of the knee may be strained and the meniscus, a disc in the knee, may have a minor tear. The bones are separated, namely the shinbone, and the smaller leg bones are stretched. This will bring about pain, swelling, and at times impaired mobility of the knee. Resting, elevating the lower limb, using ice, and probably a brace could be an excellent start for a cure. In some situations, physiotherapy or surgery might be required for the knee to become stronger and better. You mustn't put any weight on the leg with the problem no matter what until an orthopedist advises the opposite.

How long does it take to get healed after undergoing hip replacement surgery

Female | 77

Recovery time after hip replacement surgery can vary, but initial healing typically takes 6 to 8 weeks. Full recovery and return to normal activities can take several months and rehabilitation and physical therapy play a crucial role.

I would advise consulting with an orthopedic surgeon focusing on hand surgery. Delaying the care seeking should be avoided and even more so when Medicaid can reimburse treatment costs.

Sir, I got a small lump under the nail part above my big toe and it’s little paining . I met an orthopedic doctor. He said uric acid may be high. I had a uric acid test done and it was 4.83 mg/dL. If you ask if those values are normal, the doctor says that you should use Febumin-80 tablet. I don't understand anything. Please tell me what should I do. Can you please explain my situation to me. Thank you

Male | 32

Gout happens when uric acid builds up. It can cause pain, swelling, and redness. Your uric acid level is slightly high at 4.83 mg/dL. The doctor prescribed Febumin-80 tablets to lower it. Follow their advice closely. Watch what you eat to manage gout.

Sound from joints specially from leg joint Black line on the nails now spreading on other nails also Dark eye circles

Male | 20

Two things seem to trouble you. Let's address them one by one. Your leg joints are making sounds, which is normal. It happens when air bubbles pop or tendons slide over bones. The black lines spreading on your nails could indicate a skin condition or lack of nutrients. Lack of sleep, stress, or allergies may cause dark circles under eyes. To improve these, eat a nutrient-rich diet. Manage stress well. Get adequate sleep. Moisturize nails. If issues persist, consult an orthopedist.

Due to a car accident a while back, I've been wearing diapers for an extended period because of my mobility issues. I don't currently have incontinence issues, but my reliance on diapers has made me wonder about the long-term effects. My primary concern is whether this extended use of diapers, even without incontinence, might eventually lead to total incontinence. I would greatly appreciate your insights or any information you can provide on this matter.

Male | 23

Prolonged diaper use may cause a number of health problems including urinary tract infections, skin rashes and discomfort.

Sir, we are having pain in left shoulder since last 2 months. Just a few days ago, we had fallen from our parked bike, since then the same pain started in the right shoulder. Now there is pain in both the shoulders, the hands are not even fully raised and there is a problem in the side while sleeping. Took medicine too but nothing is getting relief.

We need to evaluate your shoulder. Depending on clinical examination findings, you will need X-ray / MRI

I m getting sharp shooting pain in right side..

Female | 29

It sounds as if you have sciatica. Sciatica causes sharp shooting pains to run down one of your legs. It is caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve in the lower back. This may be from a slipped disk or tight muscles. To help relieve the pain, gently stretch the area, apply ice packs, and avoid sitting too long without changing positions. If these suggestions do not work, consult with an orthopedist who can provide further treatment options for you.

Hi, I am 14 years old and I have had pain in my knee for months now and I am a gymnast and sometimes when I land there is a shot of pain that goes straight through my kneecap and it feels like it just breaks and then it will hurt for about 5 minutes and then I will be fine. I can’t lunge or squat without it hurting and we have tried a lot of things but nothing is working. Thanks!

Female | 14

Your knee pain could be due to ligament sprains or tears, tendonitis or a meniscal tear.. Its common cause of knee pain in young athletes often caused by overuse or repeated stress on the knee joint. It can cause pain around the kneecap that worsens with activities like jumping or squatting. Contact a specialist to get it checked thoruoghly. You need to rest your knee to avoid pain and activities that aggravate your symptoms. Try using ice packs or a cold compress for 10-15 minutes to help reduce pain and swelling.
