Patient's Query

I am having pain in my left ankle from at least one year every time when it's pain I use pain relief gel or take medicine and then pain stop for 5-6 days but it's again start paining after some days

Answered by Dr. Deep Chakraborty

It will not do you any good to stick pain relief gel/medication to the ankle for persistent pain. A qualified orthopedic specialist should diagnose and treat you adequately.

Right hip subchondral sclerosis with fewill defindradiolucent areasnoted inhead of right femur

Male | 34

Subchondral sclerosis is when the bone becomes harder. Radiolucent areas are places where the bone isn’t as dense. These changes can cause pain and stiffness in the hip area. They may occur because of natural aging processes and wear and tear on our bodies over time. To relieve these symptoms, try doing exercises or going for physical therapy sessions.

Why does ac joint hurt?

Here are many things that can happen to the AC joint, but the most common conditions are arthritis, fractures and separations. Arthritis is a condition characterized by loss of cartilage in the joint, which is essentially wear and tear of the smooth cartilage that allows the bones to move smoothly. Like arthritis at other joints in the body, it is characterized by pain and swelling, especially with activity. Over time, the joint can wear out and get larger, with spurs forming around it. These spurs are a sign of the arthritis and not a cause of the pain. Reaching across the body toward the other arm aggravates arthritis at the AC joint. AC joint wear and tear is common in weight lifters, especially among those who bench press and to a lesser extent, military press. In weight lifters the arthritis at the AC joint has a special name — osteolysis.
