Hi thanks for your query and welcome to lybrate.
Please enclose your relevant x rays so that I can exclude any bony injury. Also even soft tissue injuries takes around 2-3 weeks to heal properly provided adequate precautions are taken. But we first need to be sure that there is no bony injury. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance.
Thanks & regards

Hi thanks for your query and welcome to lybrate. I am Dr. Akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi.
You have mentioned backache as your mother's problem. You are actually very young to have persistent backache. If there is only localized backache with no other associated symptoms like radiating leg pain, numbness, paresthesias etc, and no systemic symptoms like fever, loss of appetite, loss of weight etc, my advice to her for initial 2-3 weeks will be: - to maintain proper posture while working and sleeping
- if pain is more then you can take a short course of an anti-inflammatory medication like tab etoshine or even tab paracetamol which suits you
- intensive physical therapy initially under supervision of a trained physiotherapist and then to continue at home
- adequate calcium & vitamin d intake if levels are low in body
- ice packs can applied 3-4 times in a day
- analgesic spray for local application like dynapar qps spray can be used and is easily available.
- avoid lifting heavyweight/ acute forward bending in mornings etc if there is no improvement in 2-3 weeks with this conservative management, we will need to evaluate her further in form of dynamic x rays to look for any instability as a cause for pain and some blood investigations to rule out any deficiencies etc. You will have to consult a dermatologist for your issues about skin lesions. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance.
Dear lybrate-user
pain in groin can be due to various reasons. Is there any injury to groin. Should get checked up by a sport medicine doctor.
Don't self medicate. You can use analgesic ointment till you go for consultation. Ointment tolagin local apply can help for temporary relief.
But do not neglect it.

A slipped disc, also known as a prolapsed disc or herniated disc, is the term given to the phenomenon that occurs when a cartilaginous disc found between the vertebrae in the spine becomes slightly displaced or protrudes, thereby pressing on the nerves in the adjacent areas and causing back pain.
This happens when the soft inner part of the disc, known as nucleus pulposus, bulges out through a weakness in the exterior part of the disc. A prolapsed disc usually occurs in the lower region of the spine and can be of varying sizes. There might even be the development of inflammation around the disc in some cases.
Who is likely to get affected?
Most cases of herniated disc occur in patients between the ages of 30 and 50. The number of men affected is twice as many as the number of women.
Although the root cause of this problem is not yet known, there are a number of factors that may trigger it. These factors include working at a job that requires a lot of lifting, an occupation that involves remaining in a seated position for a long time, weight-bearing sports, obesity, smoking habits and increasing age.
Effective ways of treating the problem
- Medications - There are many different kinds of medicines that are effective in providing relief. These include painkillers, muscles relaxants, anti-inflammatory pills, etc.
- Spinal injections - A number of spinal injections are used to treat slipped discs. The injection is done at the opening where the inflamed nerve roots are found and reduces pain, swelling and irritation in the area.
- Radiofrequency ablation - This procedure makes use of an electrical current produced by radio waves to reduced pain and sensitivity in the affected area.
- Ozone discectomy - As opposed to the surgical removal of the prolapsed disc, this new process makes use of an ozone-oxygen mixture that is injected into the spine to treat the problem. Many international studies have proved its superiority to traditional methods and surgeries.
Those affected by this problem are advised to keep exercising and continuing with their everyday activities as best as possible. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a Pain Management Specialist.
U need to do an X-Ray of affected Hip joint. Also de check your Thyroid profile, CBC, Serum calcium n Vit. B 12, Vit. D3. As women are more prone to calcium deficiency, so may be pain is because of that.
Start with Physiotherapy treatment.
Learn spinal exercises.
START EXERCISES WHEN YOUR PAIN REDUCE.
Wear lumber spine belt.
Apply volini cream before sleeping.
Don't lift heavy things.
Don't do forward bending.
Take calcium, vitamin D 3 and methylcobalmine supplement.
Get your x ray done.

Your wife has developed osteoarthritis of both knees. That's the most probable diagnosis at the moment.

Hi I suppose you didn't take proper physiotherapy treatment then. But that's nothing to worry. You can still consult a good physiotherapist near your place and start with the strengthening process. It's surely gonna take a longer time but then you need to start it early.
Avoid sitting cross legged.
Avoid squatting- quadriceps exercises- lie straight, make a towel role and put it under the knee, press the keen against the role, hold it for 20 secs. Repeat 20 times twice a day. This will help relieve some pain. Core strengthening exercise- straight leg raised with toes turned outward, repeat 10 times, twice a day.
Hams stretching- lie straight, take the leg up, pull the feet towards yourself, with a elastic tube or normal belt. Repeat 10 times, twice a day.
Sports taping- stretch the tape from both ends and apply on the affected area contrast fomentation (hot and cold).
