Patient's Query

What is cervical spondylosis with radiculopathy?

Answered by Dr. Anu Daber

Cervical spondylosis is a general term for age-related wear and tear affecting the spinal disks in your neck. As the disks dehydrate and shrink, signs of osteoarthritis develop, including bony projections along the edges of bones (bone spurs). Cervical spondylosis is very common and worsens with age Radiculopathy is when these changes cause nerve compression which leads to tingling numbness in fingers or arms and motor deficit

I am a type 2 diabetic patient.four days before a rusted nail pierced my right foot.after that my foot started swelling and i am not able to eat and having nausea and I also have gastric trouble and constipation.i vomited thrice today and I didn’t have my antibiotics or any diabetic tablets.i also have headache and fever

Male | 56

Maybe there is an infection in your foot. When your skin is pierced, bacteria may enter and cause swelling. The symptoms you are having such as feeling sick to your stomach (nausea), throwing up, being unable to have a bowel movement (constipation), headache, and having a high temperature could be due to the infection moving around. Quick treatment with antibiotics and other drugs from a doctor is needed so that you can get well soon.

Male | 30

You should visit and have your doctor or an orthopedic specialist who will help in determining the condition. Whether you can drive a car comfortably depending on the severity of your injury and how soon your healing progresses could not be determined.

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.

Male | 16

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.

Good afternoon, I have been having waist pain frequently in the past few weeks. Yesterday I was having muscle pull consistently for several hours intermittently

Male | 53

It appears that you have recently been having some lower back pain as well as muscle pulls. These could be due to things like bad posture, overworking yourself or even just pulling a muscle while making a sudden move. To reduce your discomfort, try doing some gentle stretches, using warm packs, and resting when necessary.

I have a ganglion cyst on my wrist I'm suppose to have surgery on in the morning, the cyst disappeared 3 days ago. Should I still have the surgery or will they do the surgery still

Male | 37

Your ganglion cysts aren't often painful, though sometime­s annoying or movement-limiting. Since yours vanishe­d naturally, surgery might not be require­d anymore. However, inform your doctor about this de­velopment so they can re­assess if the operation is still ne­cessary or not.

I think I broke my ankle/ foot in my rugby game today

Female | 15

A possible foot or ankle­ injury during rugby is concerning. Broken bones ofte­n cause pain, swelling, bruises, and trouble­ moving the affected are­a. If suspecting a break, rest it and apply ice­, avoiding weight on that limb. Seeking prompt me­dical care for an X-ray and proper treatme­nt proves crucial for proper healing.

I m 30 yrs old I have back pain for last 2yrs I took MRI scan 2 months back and treatment but still I have back pain

Male | 30

There are many different reasons why people get back pain. It could be because of a muscle strain or problems with your discs. Also, if you still have the pain even after getting an MRI done and treated for it then more tests need to be carried out. Make sure you talk about what’s been happening with your doctor because they’ll need this information to help figure out what would work best for you.

Ma'am cat has bitten to my father in left leg what to do for treatment tell me

Male | 40

The foremost thing is to wash the wound with warm water and soap. Following this, put the dressing on the wound using a new bandage. Check the area around the bite for redness, swelling, warmth, and pus. Each of these might be infection symptoms. You need to visit your healthcare provider if you observe these signs. The main treatments for infections at home are wound cleaning and dressings.
