Upper back pain can occur anywhere between the base of the neck and the bottom of the rib cage. Upper back pain may be caused by injuries or fractures, poor posture, disk problems or other issues, such as arthritis.The common causes of upper back pain stem from inflammation and micro-tears in the muscles, tendons and ligaments of the upper back or from arthritis, herniated disks, vertebral stenosis, or misalignments in the thoracic or cervical spine.A combination of rest, over-the-counter pain medications, and using a heating pad or ice pack can help reduce swelling, relax muscles, and promote healing.

Here are some non-medication treatments commonly recommended for heel pain: rest: avoid activities that aggravate the pain and give your heels time to rest and heal. Ice: apply ice packs to the affected area for about 15-20 minutes several times a day to reduce inflammation and relieve pain. Stretching exercises: perform gentle stretching exercises for the calf muscles and plantar fascia to improve flexibility and reduce tension in the heel area. Footwear: wear supportive shoes with good arch support and cushioning to reduce strain on the heels. Avoid flat shoes or high heels that may exacerbate heel pain. Orthotic inserts: consider using orthotic inserts or heel cups to provide additional support and cushioning for your heels. Night splints: use night splints while sleeping to keep the foot in a neutral position and stretch the plantar fascia and achilles tendon. Physical therapy: a physical therapist can provide specialized exercises and treatments to alleviate heel pain and improve foot mechanics. Weight management: maintain a healthy weight to reduce pressure on the heels and minimize strain on the feet. Avoid barefoot walking: avoid walking barefoot, especially on hard surfaces, to prevent further irritation to the heels. If conservative treatments do not provide relief, your healthcare provider may recommend other interventions such as corticosteroid injections, shockwave therapy, or surgery in severe cases.

Hi Mr. lybrate-user. I hope you are fine. I went through the report that you have mentioned above and going through the history you have provided. I would say synovial thicvkening in sports athletes are very common especially in wrist which caused due to "over strenious work "this type of injury are very common in body builders, tennis players or any spoirts which involves maximum use of wrist. Synovial thickening is our body's response to friction caused due to inability to cope up with stress those tendons or ligaments going through. So coming to treatment part:- sports modification like using wrist support while workout, correct the position of your grip, reduce the amount of reps and repitation for 2-3 weeks to reduce load on your tendons ,give couple of days rest to it. Medications local diclo spray ,icepack is sufficient and for medications follow only on written prescription. I hope this will help. All the best.

Ice therapy would definitely help to reduce the inflammation. We also advise you to use knee cap which would help to prevent the knee from damaging further and also to maintain the quadriceps muscle tone. Stiffness might have developed due to weakness of the ligaments &inflammed cartilage. Specific knee exercises will also help ie. Keeping ball underneath the knee and keep pressing it. That's the simple exercise which will help you to strengthen the knee. You need to consume good protein and iron diet in your body which will help you to break the fatigue and general body pain. However non veg foods definitely makes you to get increased with the toxin levels in the body and it makes your knee to have less fluid content in the system. In general we suggest patients who has knee pain to eat more water content vegetables which will definitely help you to feel better. This is a general knee pain and for this you can follow these measures: one keep a pillow right under the knee while sleeping, next is you can keep ice in the painful area for about 5--10 minutes, it looks like you are is important to check that. Anaemia always leads to the symptoms of being tired and also having body pain though there may not be any pathological reasons for knee pain. With knee exercises you will definitely feel better and muscles must be strengthened. •patellar tendinitis: •risk factor •a combination of factors may contribute to the development of patellar tendinitis, including: •physical activity. •running and jumping are most commonly associated with patellar tendinitis. Sudden increases in how hard or how often you engage in the activity also add stress to the tendon, as can changing your running shoes. •tight leg muscles. Tight thigh muscles (quadriceps) and hamstrings, which run up the back of your thighs, can increase strain on your patellar tendon. ••muscular imbalance. •if some muscles in your legs are much stronger than others, the stronger muscles could pull harder on your patellar tendon. This uneven pull could cause tendinitis. •chronic illness. •some illnesses disrupt blood flow to the knee, which weakens the tendon. Examples include kidney failure, autoimmune diseases such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis and metabolic diseases such as diabetes. •complications •if you try to work through your pain, ignoring your body's warning signs, you could cause increasingly larger tears in the patellar tendon. Knee pain and reduced function can persist if you don't tend to the problem, and you may progress to the more serious patellar tendinopathy. •prevention •to reduce your risk of developing patellar tendinitis, take these steps: •don't play through pain.

A strap that applies pressure to your patellar tendon can help to distribute force away from the tendon and direct it through the strap instead. This may help relieve pain. •iontophoresis. This therapy involves spreading a corticosteroid medicine on your skin and then using a device that delivers a low electrical charge to push the medication through your skin. •platelet-rich plasma injection. This type of injection has been tried in some people with chronic patellar tendon problems. Studies are ongoing. It is hoped the injections might promote new tissue formation and help heal tendon damage. •probably your stamina would've gone down due to over use of the joints and the metabolic activity is more due to running. You need to consume good protein diet so that your body will act as a reservoir. It will help you to fight against rather than affecting one particular area of your body for eg. Knee joint. For knee ligament pain or inflammation you need to keep ice which will help you to prevent the inflammation progressing further. •patellofemoral pain syndrome •usually fully relieved with simple measures or physical therapy. It may recur, however, if you do not make adjustments to your training routine or activity level. It is essential to maintain appropriate conditioning of the muscles around the knee, particularly the quadriceps and the hamstrings. •there are additional steps that you can take to prevent recurrence of patellofemoral •they include: •wearing shoes appropriate to your activities •warming up thoroughly before physical activity •incorporating stretching and flexibility exercises for the quadriceps and hamstrings into your warm-up routine, and stretching after physical activity •increasing training gradually •reducing any activity that has hurt your knees in the past •maintaining a healthy body weight to avoid overstressing your knees ••d cartilageacl •joints, ie. In the upper limbs if the pain is present in the fingers/wrist and in the lower limbs it the pain is present in the toes/ ankle, then we shall definitely say it is rheumatic arthritis. •if your proximal joints (ie. Shoulder, hip & knee has pain) then you can pour hot (warm) water in that area to reduce the inflammation. If you have pain in the distal joints ie. Wrist, fingers, ankle, toes then you can wear either elbow brace or wrist brace which will help you to feel warm and very protective. And also immerse the distal joints in the hot water tub which will help you to reduce the pain. ••knee pain during driving or watching movie. •it might due to lack of movements in the knee while the joints are immobilized during driving and while watching movies. It is important that you need to have movements in and around the knee so that the blood flow will not be disturbed. •knee ligament laxity•if you have problem in your legs then it might be due to ligament laxity where your legs would become very weak due to the old ligament injury and that should be treated immediately. •wear knee cap so that you will feel firm while walking or climbing stairs.•this is a general strain and for this you can follow these measures: one keep a pillow right under the knee while sleeping, next is you can keep ice in the painful area for about 5--10 minutes, if pain still persists you can stretch your body by twisting the waist on both sides how we used to do in the school drill similarly you can try! one time you can do hot water fermentation that would help to reduce the muscle strain.•legs becoming numb and also pain is there when the patient walks for 10-15 minutes?•it looks like you are anaemic. If you feel that the legs are becoming numb then keep your legs warm which is important, probably you can wear mcr chappals inside the house/ socks inside the house.

Consume good protein and vitamin diet which will help you to improve your weakness of the whole body. You can give good vitamin d and calcium which will help to have quick healing. If you are a non veg person consume seer fish or if you are a veg person eat mushrooms which has vitamin d3. You need to consume water content vegetables which will make you feel hydrated. A good brace will protect your knee and take the pressure off your meniscus, allowing it to rest. Your doctor may recommend the rice regimen—rest, ice, compression, and elevation—to treat a eroded cartilage which is the main reason for the synovial fluid to get drained. Resting your knee can help relieve your symptoms. Steps to heal a worn out cartilage naturally: rest: it's crucial to rest your knee after it starts to ache. You should not participate in activities where you could cause additional strain. Ice: apply ice to your knee for 15 minutes at four-hour intervals.

It sounds like you're experiencing limited mobility in your thumbs and are unsure about the underlying cause, whether it's related to carpal tunnel syndrome or basal thumb arthritis. Here's what you can consider in terms of diagnosis and testing: medical evaluation: schedule an appointment with a healthcare professional, preferably a hand specialist or orthopedic surgeon, who can assess your symptoms and perform a thorough physical examination of your thumbs and hands. They will ask about your medical history, including any previous injuries or conditions that may be contributing to your symptoms. Diagnostic tests: based on your symptoms and physical examination, your healthcare provider may recommend one or more diagnostic tests to further evaluate your condition. These tests may include: x-rays: x-rays can help identify any abnormalities or degenerative changes in the bones of the thumb joint, which can indicate basal thumb arthritis. Blood tests: blood tests may be ordered to rule out underlying conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis or other inflammatory disorders that can affect the joints. Nerve conduction studies: nerve conduction studies can help assess nerve function and determine if there is any evidence of nerve compression or damage, which is characteristic of carpal tunnel syndrome. Electromyography (emg): emg testing may be recommended to evaluate the electrical activity of muscles and detect any abnormalities associated with nerve compression or damage. Imaging studies: in addition to x-rays, other imaging studies such as ultrasound or mri may be ordered to provide detailed images of the soft tissues, including the ligaments, tendons, and cartilage, to help assess the extent of joint damage or inflammation. Physical examination: your healthcare provider will also perform a physical examination of your thumbs and hands, assessing for signs of inflammation, swelling, tenderness, and range of motion. They may also perform specific tests to assess thumb function and mobility. Comprehensive assessment: based on the results of these tests and examinations, your healthcare provider can provide a comprehensive assessment and diagnosis of your condition. They will discuss treatment options tailored to your specific needs, which may include conservative measures such as splinting, physical therapy, or medications for pain and inflammation, as well as surgical options if necessary.

Treatments range from resting the affected arm to surgery. Tendinitis can progress to a rotator cuff tear, and that injury can get worse with time. Seeking treatment as quickly as possible helps keep the injury from progressing. Nonsurgical treatments improve symptoms in about 50 percent of people with a rotator cuff injury. These kinds of treatments include: •applying hot or cold packs to the affected shoulder to reduce swelling •exercises to restore strength and range of motion •injecting the affected area with cortisone, a steroid that helps to reduce inflammation •resting the affected arm and wearing a sling to isolate arm motions •over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications, such as ibuprofenand naproxen.

Symptoms of arthritis symptoms of osteoarthritis may include joint pain and progressive stiffness that develops gradually. Symptoms of may include painful swelling, inflammation, and stiffness in the fingers, arms, legs, and wrists occurring in the same joints on both sides of the body, especially upon waking up in the morning. Knee arthritis can be painful and debilitating. For osteoarthritis (oa) of the knee, self-care early on can often help significantly. It is important to stretch and strengthen the surrounding leg muscles to provide more support and reduce stresses around the joint. The following best bet exercises will help you get started on your path to feeling stronger, more flexible and more active. Remember: exercise should not be painful – if you experience pain, discontinue and consult with your physician. Advice: 1.must take adequate rest 2.apply hot water with mild heat with cotton towel 3.avoid cross leg sitting and long time standing 4. Put the small size chair under the ankle during sitting in the chair for leg elevation 5.do the exercise given below 2 times per day 1.quadriceps setting exercise helps to strengthen the quadriceps muscle (the big muscle on the front of the thigh), an important stabilizer of the knee. Lie on your back with the leg you want to exercise straight. Place a small rolled towel underneath the knee. Slowly tighten the muscle on top of the thigh (quadriceps) and push the back of the knee down into the rolled towel. Hold contraction for 5 seconds and then slowly release, resting 5 seconds between each contraction. Perform 3 sets of 10 repetitions, 1 time daily. 2.straight leg raise also helps to strengthen the quadriceps muscle. Lie on your back with the leg you want to exercise straight. The other knee should be bent to support your lower back. Tighten the muscle on the top of your thigh and lift to the level of your other knee. Slowly lower. Perform 3 sets of 10 repetitions, 1 time daily.
