Avatar m tn I spent the rest of that training operation laying down on a portable cot with my leg elevated and iced. During that time (about 4-5 days) I was unable to lift my leg from the laying position and it continued to hurt badly. After about a week the swelling was under control and our training was done. I went to the medical officer once we were back in garrison and he performed some checks on my knee. Nothing like an MRI or anything.
595144 tn?1219229276 But a Physiotherapist did not diagnose Carpel tunnel and, although I am still waiting on an appointment with a Neurologist (for possible Nerve Conduction Test) I now believe it is PAD. I say this because even when wearing wrist braces, the tingling occurs if my hand is above the level of my heart when in bed. I assume it needs gravity to get enough blood through to the fingers. Two days ago I experienced pain on the inside of my leg towards the rear just above the knee.

Avatar f tn 1 week ago I was washing my floor (on my knees no longer than 10 minutes). A few minutes later my knee felt tight and like I had a bruise. After looking at it, I noticed a golf size swelling on the top of my knee. When touched it felt like liquid in it. I went to the Dr. the next day and he said it was Bursitis and to watch for redness and hot feeling as that is a sign of infection. I have tried to ice it and rest whenever possible (not easy w/ 3 little ones).
Avatar m tn Hello, I have had 3 arthroscopies on my left knee to repair my lateral horn meniscus in September 2009, January 2014 and March 2015. Each time after the operation and recovery my knee begins to feel good and strong again. After 1 and a half year since my last operation my knee has felt great, however 5 days ago I squatted down (asian squat toilet), and instantly knew I had torn the cartilage again. Since this moment my left knee has a constant ache/throb.
Avatar f tn Surgical repair for torn meniscus of L' Knee. 3 months post-op it buckled, caused tear during fall to R' Knee and meniscus was surgically repaired but has also failed, although the surgeon refuses to order an MRI to "prove" this latest injury. Pain is an issue as I am allergic to all pain meds ordered to date and take nothing for the pain levels of 9-10. Before injury both knees were healthy, minimal arthritic changes on MRI's in spite of age 58 and obesity.
Avatar m tn i have recently had a knee operation to fix the cartilage. on investigating they found that my femor and knee cap was in a bad way and worn and in time i will need a knee cap replacement, however thankfully not at the present time. Iam a fit person who teaches amrtial arts. My problem is that it has been weeks since my operation but the knee is still badly swollen and sore and i am still struggling to straighten it and bend it behonf 40 degrees..
Avatar n tn Below are the findings of my knee MRI please suggest in this case should i go ahead with the arthoscopy or shall take a treatment..
Avatar n tn This summer i recently had my first anal abcess at age 48. I'm pretty good health and I work on computers so I'm always sitting down alot. Anyway, I felt a bump on down in the anal area, it hurt when I sat down and pain increased over the next couple of days so bad i couldn't hardly sit down. So I went to my doctor's and he said I had an anal abcess and I should get an operation.
Avatar f tn I put 4 in the vagina the night of July 3rd (didn't poke a hole). Slept with a pad. Woke up July 4th with cramping. Went walking and did laundry, laid down at 3pm. At 4 when I got out of bed, my water broke. I showered, got my bags ready, and went to the hospital an hour away. I had my baby at 6am July 5th.
Avatar f tn I, then placed the (105°?) warm pad on my knee; wrapped my kneepad with plastic wrap (to keep the CO from staining the heating pad) and then wrapped a heating pad around the knee and set the temperature to Med. heat. I left it on for about 1 hour and when I removed everything, I did a ‘test walk’…not only was my knee not stiff, and the swelling was 95% GONE…all within the 1 hour treatment!!!!!
Avatar f tn Those suppositories are supposed to be white. It's possible that you may be spotting but the med isn't supposed to make you spot.
6991914 tn?1405466946 Ok so I am almost 39 weeks and I finally got a bottle of evening primrose oil yesterday and tried inserting one like everyone said before I went to bed but after that every time I would get up to pee my underwear were wet feeling could the pill possibly have leaked or could it have been just a tiny bit of my water? I'm so confused I just want this baby out. Please tell me what you think.
Avatar m tn I will be having a operation in a few weeks time to have a hysteroctomy because i have cysts that are regrowing after removel on my ovaries. I am just having a few worries about the side effects and things to expect after the operation itself. Please it would be great to hear if anyone has actually had this and what kind of experiences that had from it.
Avatar f tn Try to lube the area before inserting the tampon if possible and don't wear them threw the night always wear a pad during bed time if that doesn't work just wear pads they have a variety for underwear and thongs if needed...
Avatar m tn Having recently torn the cartilage in my left knee and simultaneously diagnosed ‘with a little arthritis’ in the same, and with swelling behind the knee. My Sport’s Ortho said that the swelling was common with the torn cartilage but should go down in time. I began searching on the Web for a magical pain relief remedy (other than my already supplementation of Glucosamine Sulfate, Chondrotin, Taurine, Collagen, HA, Cats Claw, Bromelain, MSM, etc., etc., etc….
1652468 tn?1302900498 A dr can drain the fluid out of the joint by inserting a needle into the knee joint and drawing it out. Personally, I would only let an orthopedic surgeon do it. You should probably, at the very least, have it scoped but it would depend on the your xrays and how much actually joint space is left due to arthritis.
