Can I Improve Mobility with Osteoarthritis and Weight Loss?

Patient's Query

I’m 61 knee pain foot pain being of 42 osteoarthritis and need to loose weight quickly finding mobility getting worse

Answered by Dr. Pramod Bhor

Given your age and history of osteoarthritis, it is most likely caused by the wear and tear on your joints. Losing some weight gradually with a healthy diet could relieve the pressure on the knees. Additionally, physical therapy may enhance flexibility while building up muscles around these areas.

Perineural cyst is painfull?

Female | 33

A perine­ural cyst can hurt sometimes. These­ fluid-filled sacs grow near lower back ne­rves. They cause back pain, le­g pain, numbness. The exact re­ason is unclear, but old injuries or gene­s may cause them. Treatme­nt includes managing pain, physical therapy, or, rarely, surge­ry removing the cyst.

I have got burn in my ankle and i got wound.How Can i heal this fast.

Male | 25

Burns occur when skin contacts hot items like­ fire or boiling water. The are­a might be red, swollen, and painful. To he­al faster, gently clean the­ wound, apply burn cream, and bandage it. Kee­p it clean and dry for a few days. If it doesn't improve­ or you notice pus or more pain, see­ a healthcare provider. But for now, ke­ep it clean and protecte­d.

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.

I broke my big toe. It was pretty bad and painful and I went to the ER. They do X-ray and told me that by big toe is fractured. It was late and they didn't give me any other information nor my X-ray. They said that I have to buddy tape it for now but I cat step on it or put any shoes. Do you think I need a walking boot or some kind of immobilization to my foot?

Female | 28

I would suggest that you should consult an orthopedist for further investigation of the health status. The X-rays reports as well the correct diagnosis of fractures are necessary for severe injury assessment. Based on the level of severity, he or she may recommend immobilization using a walking boot or cast.

The consultation with an orthopedic surgeon who has particular knowledge of the ACL injuries is of crucial importance. They will evaluate the extent of the injury, and thereafter, they will decide the best way of treatment which could be surgery, physiotherapy or a combined treatment. .

Recently I started doing yoga again, and ive immediately been reminded why i stopped before. Basically some stretches feel fine, like once in the sides of my torso. But some other stretches i feel nothing at all, like if i put my soles together i can keep my knees fully on the floor and lie all the way forward and still feel absolutely no stretch, this is what most stretches feel like. But then some other stretches hurt WAYY to much, most importantly my hamstrings, i cannot lean even a bit forward with my legs straight and it already hurts like heck. I have no improvement in my hamstrings when doing more "gentle" yoga stretches, but then when i tried pushing myself a bit more in stretching my hamstrings, it would start hurting in my knees so much when i walked, almost like a pop or click with every step. Recently i considered the possibility of possibly being hypermobile, i can put my pinky fingers 90 degrees up, i can reach my wrists with my thumbs and i can do that thing where i lock my hands together behind my back and can put them over my head without letting go. I also get a strange uncomfortableness/awareness in my joints sometimes, not even a pain just uncomfortable. So basically my question is, do you think im hypermobile? and if so how (if possible) can i still do stretches/yoga without either feeling nothing or feeling intense pains? And is there any way i can get rid of the uncomfortableness in my joints?

Female | 19

It sounds like you may be hypermobile, which means your joints can move more than usual. You might have less stretch during yoga or feel intense pain in some stretches as symptoms. Instead of pushing too hard when stretching, focus on gentle moves for flexibility because this can help protect your joints. Also, make sure not to do any position that causes discomfort or hurts.
