Why is my right leg bigger than left?

Patient's Query

my right leg/thigh/hip is bigger than the left What is wrong with me

Answered by Dr. Deep Chakraborty

If one leg/thigh/hip is bigger than the other, it might be because of a muscle imbalance. This means that one side is stronger than the other. You may develop this condition by constantly using your one leg when walking or doing physical exercises. To solve this problem, ensure workouts that will serve each side equally.

I am a 16 year old male. Currently sick with Covid, had fever for three days, now all good, however still positive. Today out of nowhere I started to feel some heel pain when walking, on my outside right heel. And I noticed it was mainly when taking my foot off the ground. I did some tests and found out it was only when lifting my foot off a hard surface, but not a cushioned surface, that actually helped ease the pain. Now about 10 hours later, it's a constant pain that only temporarily eases if I push my foot really hard on a cushioned surface. It's a sharp pain. I had heel problems 6-7 years ago, tendinitis, completely different pain. And nothing since then. I tried Arnica, and Moment Ibuprofen about 50 minutes ago and nothing has helped.

Sharp pain in the heel should be treated by visiting an orthopedic specialist. This pain may result from different conditions, including plantar fasciitis Achilles tendonits stress fractures. Although OTC pain relievers may provide short-term relief, it is always advisable to consult a doctor for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

Hi I'm Kay. My boyfriend diagnose with rheumatoid arthritis. he takes steroids since 4 years. Please suggest a diet plan for him. Could you please suggest me it can be affect a marriage life

Male | 32

Joint pain, swelling, and stiffness are some of the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. Steroids can be used to reduce inflammation in the affected areas. In the case of a healthy diet, one should eat more fruits and vegetables which contain vitamins that help fight diseases. Additionally, an individual can consume whole grains such as brown rice or oatmeal since they have fiber for easy digestion. Foods with high protein content like fish or beans should also not be left out. To promote general body wellness, patients should avoid taking processed sugars and other similar products. By so doing they will be able to manage most signs related to this condition.

I have had shoulder blade pain since 2 months. I consulted a orthopaedic. He examined and said I have a herniated disc and prescribed me some pain killers. Those painkillers donot work at all.I consulted other doctor. He too prescribed me pain killers. And told that if the pain doesn't heal they will have to perform a surgery. I want to know if I should consume pain killers or go ahead with the surgery. Or can you suggest me a way to heal the herniated disc.

Female | 18

If painkillers aren't working surgery may be necessary . .Also , physical therapy may help. Herniated discs can be caused by poor posture , obesity, or heavy lifting..... Strengthening core muscles can help prevent future herniation. But to conclude anything between medication or surgery, need to evaluate reports
