I had an accident in 2005 August, I had a brachial plexus injury, I can't move my left hand. My left shoulder, wrist, elbow fused in CMC Vellore 10 Years ago. Any further treatment in India?

Answered by Pankaj Kamble

Hello Faisal, treatment depends on several factors including the severity of the injury, the type of injury, the length of time since the injury, and other existing conditions. And since you have mentioned it's been 10 years, so the reason is nerve tissue grows slowly, so it can take several years to know the full benefit of surgery.

 

Further, there are various surgeries we have mentioned below:

Nerve graft: In this procedure, the damaged part of the brachial plexus is removed and replaced with sections of nerves harvested from other parts of your body. This helps restore your arm's function.

Nerve transfer: When the nerve root has been torn from the spinal cord, surgeons often take a less important nerve that's still working and connect it to a nerve that's more important but not working.

Muscle transfer: Muscle transfer is a procedure in which your surgeon removes a less important muscle or tendon from another part of your body, typically the thigh, transfers it to your arm, and reconnects the nerves and blood vessels supplying the muscle.

Hope this answer helps you.

Regarding some medicine .... I m having osteoarthritis

Female | 49

Osteoarthritis is a condition that can cause pain and stiffness in your joints. The tissues that cushion your joints wear away, leading to this problem. Sometimes it may be due to old age, an injury, or obesity. You can do low-impact exercises such as walking or swimming to relieve the pain. Alternatively, apply ice packs or use heating pads on the affected area. Furthermore, purchasing footwear with proper arch support may also alleviate discomfort.

Hello, today I had a deep massage session for my chest and stomach. The pain was horrible in my chest. Till now I can feel it in my bones when I move, so I’m just concerned about the pain. Is it normal? I tried to get up minutes before and I felt dizziness in my eyes and I couldn’t see clearly, I also felt coldness in my fingers and heard noises in my ears It was just for seconds

Female | 20

It's not normal to feel terrible chest pain after having a massage. Dizziness, blurred vision, cold hands and noises in the ears are not good signs following a massage. This could happen if certain areas were pressed during the massage or if blood circulation was affected. You should take a break, drink some water and use a warm cloth to calm your muscles down. Seek medical help if the symptoms continue or become worse.

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.

Male | 30

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

And further treatment will be planned
