Asked for male, 27 years old from Bangalore

I am 27 years old, had my first dislocation of the right shoulder in 2015. Since then I have had multiple dislocations. The last dislocation was yesterday morning and had to rush to an emergency room to put it back in the slot. Previously I have put it back on my own. But yesterday was quite terrible. Hence, consulting with you this saturday morning.

Dr. Rahul (Pt)90%(658 ratings)

Hi lybrate user , Maintaining muscle strength and flexibility can help prevent shoulder dislocations. Once your shoulder is dislocated, physiotherapy may help prevent you from dislocating it in the future. Through restoring your shoulder's range of motion and physical strength, your risk for dislocation decreases.

I am a 23 years male and I go to gym regularly. Around 2 weeks back my right wrist started hurting and now if I close my wrist some tendons are moving near carpel bone and causing pain.

The synovial thickening is mobile and extends proximally up to the wrist joint at the level of flexor retinaculum. (dynamic ultrasound of the hand was performed: during flexion of hand the abnormal synovial thickening extends proximally into the wrist joint in the subcutaneous plane). There is mild to moderate edema seen in the adjacent soft tissue plan| an hand surgeon recommended to do surgery and remove. I have tried rest, ice,physio, and pain killer and still same pain when closing my hand. Some tendon is visibly seen moving while closing my hand. What is the solution.

Asked for male, 18 years old from Allahabad

My right knee is swollen and it got fluid inside it. It's been 4 months when I first consulted with a doctor, took his medicines for 2 and half months but nothing got better, then I consulted another doctor and he prescribed me some test like hla b27 and it's negative, got vitamin b12 deficiency it's 190. He's also unable to tell what's the exact problem, currently in prayagraj and done with my mri and the results are nothing it's just my knee is swollen and that's why it's filled with the fluid. The second doctor took the water outside from my knee 2 times in a day (64 ml and 32 ml ), with the help of an injection, the problematic fact is that as soon the doctor took the fluid out, it got filled within just 10 mins. The third doctor also did the same yesterday in pryagraj after watching my mri results but nothing helped, the condition is getting worse. I got maybe every test reports a doctor needs and I just want the right medication, please help.

Anaemia always leads to the symptoms of being tired and also having leg pain though there are no issues with the knee joint or back pain. If not if the pain radiates down the back of thigh and legs then it might be due to sciatica. Kindly consult the nearby physiotherapist. Hope you recover soon from the leg pain.

It looks like you are anaemic. And also you have to check with your vitamin and calcium, if the bones are weak then automatically the pain gets triggered more as there is less energy during any metabolic activity. Multiple pain in the joints if you still have pain it might due to the following reasons:
1. Anaemia - iron deficiency
2. Uric acid more in the system
3. Vitamin d deficiency leading to bone weakness and brittleness
4. Any other mineral deficiency mainly phosphorous

Asked for male, 37 years old from Gurgaon

I have severe pain in hamstrings since long (more than 15 years) and have taken muscle relaxants like tolperitas 450 since long and also taken tegitral, pregabalin. The pain is temporarily reduced by pregabalin and tegrital. I think it masks the pain. Is there anyone who can help me with the nerve block injection or guide me next line of treatment for this.

The best treatment for hamstring injury is to keep ice in the area where you have pain/or where the muscle is injured. You can also do hot water fermentation in the area. You shall keep your legs elevated by using a pillow or 2 pillows. Once the pain is subsided then you shall also go for self stretching of your hamstring muscles.
