Answered by Dr. Pramod Bhor

The normal test results might point to the condition called costochondritis, which involves the inflammation of the cartilage linking your ribs to the breastbone. Due to cartilage inflammation, the pain can be stabbing and may be felt more severely when you are active or deep breathing. Although it can be hard to heal the condition related to this, there are things you can do to help heal it. Stay away from things that activate the pain, positional ice or heat to the site, and over-the-counter painkillers like ibuprofen. See an orthopedist in time to get a full evaluation.

How can i prevent degenerative disc disease from getting worse

Prevention of worsening of degenerative disc disease is by decreasing the stress on the degenerated discs. Weight loss and avoidance of weight lifting and high impact activities decrease the stress and pain.

Hello my name is Rohan. Yesterday I fell under a car and my leg is swollen. I went to the doctor but it didn't make any difference. Please tell me how to remove leg swelling because I have an exam tomorrow

Swelling in your leg can occur due to the injury. It is your body's way of safeguarding itself. If the swelling does not subside, try elevated rest, ice pack application, and wear a compression bandage. These measures can help you swell less and thus, ease your pain and make your exam successful.

I have turf toe in 1year ago I eat medicine buy in medical store and iceing But did not get relief, today I am having pain again and all this happened while playing football.

Male | 14

You could be having turf toe, which is typical when doing sports such as football. Turf toe occurs when the big toe joint is injured, and can cause pain. Symptoms are swelling, pain, and limited movement of the toe. To assist in the healing process, try to rest your foot, use ice packs, and wear supportive shoes. Ignoring the pain, and consulting with the family doctor is a better option.
