Avatar f tn I feel like I lean to the right and cannot walk without limping. MRI of hip shows benign appearing single cyst about 8mm in size of the the femoral head, no evidence of labral tear, fracture and no specific findings of avascular nevrosis, recommend bone scan. Wondering what the cause of the cyst might be and could it have been there for years without detection? What can be done to relieve the pain?
Avatar f tn Went to neurosurgeon who told me to come back in 4weeks and if pain is still there he will send me to a pain specialist. I had x rays of pelvis but not CT scan or MRI. My whole back is hurting now. From mid back down it feels as if everything is being pulled to the left. Pain is now affecting my left clavicle. Its been 4 weeks since the accident.
Avatar m tn I can lie on my left side as long as I have a pillow between my legs, and even then I need to move my legs every few seconds/minutes (depending on the severity of the pain). I have had CT scan of back, MRI of back, xrays of hip, knee, foot, ultrasound of groin.. all came back normal. This started when I was masturbating and felt a dull pain in my right groin.
Avatar f tn Although I was told there was no fracture I was given a walking frame and an offer of physiotherapy to be taken at home. I had an mri scan a few yew years ago that showed disc protusion at L4/L5/S1. Recently I had another mri scan for neck pain which shows disc bulging at at C4/5 C5/6 with facet joint fusion and some left sided forma ?
Avatar n tn My mom told me to give special thanks to your recommendation. She will see doctor today and will ask him to order that kind of scan if possible. Thank you!!!
Avatar n tn I went to the doctor with severe pain, inflammation, inability to rotate hip, and nerve pain in the right hip. After a x-ray, MRI, and bone scan they have diagnosed a sclerotic lesion and recommended I see an orthopaedic specialist. What is the treatment for such a diagnosis?
450140 tn?1317947304 I called for the results of my MRI and they said no changes in brain scan since last time. My doc had them do MRI and xrays of my left hip. Both are showing deenerative changes. Seriously, I can barely walk!! Anyone have any input on this.......... I know from older scans, that I have a bad disc in my neck and in my back. No injuries, so does this have anything to do with MS, or is it totally a seperate issue? My doc is on vacation, or I would have spoke to him about it.
Avatar n tn A bone scan or MRI can give further clarity to the hip lesion, and is recommended in light of the hip pain. If there is concern about hypobetalipoproteinemia, further lab studies, including a blood count, stool studies and evaluation of the liver should be considered. A normal colonoscopy should exclude colon cancer. An upper endoscopy can be discussed to exclude malignancy of the upper GI tract.
Avatar f tn Last week we did xrays, Mri, bone scan all came back with hip lesions. My Dr. sent me to a orthopedic Dr. She said there were lesions on my hip which was confirmed by the ortho. Dr. He said he wanted to rule out bursitius(spelling?) so he injected my hip. He said if I still have pain in 2 weeks I need to come back then he will send me to a bone cancer specialist, If not come back in a month and he is going to xray it again to see if there is any change..
488264 tn?1226520307 The doctor who ordered the scan never mentioned this and I am not due to see them until after the scan. So my question is whether an MRI of the hips can show whether the cauda equina nerves are damaged or can it not view them? I am in severe pain in the pelvic, back and leg area. My doctor wanted to give me a steroid injection to relieve bursitis, but wanted to assess the MRI first. I am not entirely clear what they are looking for.
Avatar f tn My son is 9 years old. He has severe left hip pain the totally puts him out. He is unable to walk at times and the pain is so severe. His SED rate is 60 right now. We just had an MRI done that was negative for arthritis but did show cystic lesions and 1" in diameter. We are being refferred to a rhuemotologist to figure out what is going on. Two years ago he was hospitalized for the same hip pain in the same hip. At that point his SED rate was in the 70's.
Avatar m tn I have been suffering from chronic hip pain for about 8 months. I had THR surgery of my right hip on 1-15-08. I seemed to be recovering at a normal pace until December of 2008. I started experiencing pain in the soft tissue of my right hip. I returned to my orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis. Xrays confirmed the hip was good, to be sure a bone scan was ordered, it also showed that everything appeared normal.
Avatar f tn My left hip feels like a pencil being punctured every time I wal, and my hips ankles hurt so bad I'm on a walker (AGAIN!
Avatar f tn I have had a transvaginal scan, a sigmoidoscopy, a kidney scan, a chest xray, a xray of pelvis spine and left hip. And a mri of pelvis, spine and left hip. The only thing that has come to light is my lumber spine has a slight curve. I am now being sent for bone scans of hip, groin, spine and knee. I still have the left knee pain which the orphapedic said may need an operation see what the bone scans show up.
649905 tn?1223940508 Would a MRI scan show a hernia or tissue damage? Would it show a problem in the femoral canal or hip flexors? What can I do to track down the source of this pain? The plastic surgeon seemed to believe that abdominalplasty could possibly alleviate this problem as my muscles are not meeting in the middle but are coming in at the sides. The separation is quite pronounced. Could diastasis recti be the true source of my pain?
Avatar m tn What kinds of testing have you had done? Have you had an MRI AND a CT scan done? Often, what an MRI misses, a CT scan might find, and vice versa. An x-ray? I'd imagine you have, but I'm always surprised at what doctors don't do. I wouldn't tie the belt around you at all, as you don't know how much is too much, and no one can determine that, but that would be good information for your doctor to have. It might help identify the problem. https://www.mayoclinic.
Avatar f tn That was seven months ago I’ve had an MRI of my hip which shows a slight tear in the labrum I have had a CAT scan which showed nothing of consequence in and a prior hernia repair from 1998 to still be intact. If I lift anything over 30 pounds I get tight in the groin area. And soreness in my abdominal muscles as well as sometimes the hip the thigh and in my left Glute. I also limp for a couple days but go back to normal after that .
Avatar n tn I have been advised by my GP that I will need an MRI scan, I will keep you updated on the results, in respect of my age I am 58, but I expect that there is wear and tear on the right hip. But as i have recently had a gastric by pass I am concerned that the body is not absorbing calcium correctly which may agrivate the situation. However, I appriciate the time you took to answer my question.
Avatar m tn The pain which is relieved by emptying bowel and bladder can be dye to the cyst or any other tumor. A CT scan of the abdomen should be done. Also MRI of the lower spine and hip X-ray followed by maybe a CT scan will be required if the abdominal cause is ruled out. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
1131208 tn?1260207946 An MRI and a CAT scan showed a fracture of the subcortical something or other in the left hip an injury which occurred ten years ago on a ski trip. Osteoarthritis set in and after ten years has worn away all of the cartiledge and now it is "bone grinding on bone" a severely painful condition which limits my mobility and is ruining my life.
Avatar f tn She then sent me for an MRI and an appt with an orthopedist. The MRI showed fluid around the right hip. The ortho said that my symptoms would not be caused by that and scheduled a 3 phase bone scan. Those results showed some activity in that area along with minor osteoarthritis I do not need a hip replacement so I am left with pain that is idiopathic. I am wondering if it is muscular because when I lift my right leg, or turn over at night, I cannot straighten my right leg.
Avatar n tn Oh, it's probably a pinched nerve either at the hip or in the lower back. Nerve problems will cause numbness, tingling, pain, and the 'electrical current' you feel, since nerves carry electrical impulses. Usually a doc will prescribe physical therapy to work it out and also give pain relievers until the nerve quits hurting.
