Fall and winter mean I am back to wearing closed toe shoes-running shoes, high heels, flats and casual shoes.
I have noticed weeks after wearing these shoes, the outside of both my toes are very red and hurt a lot when pressed.
There does seem to be a slight infection via peroxide test.
What can you tell me?
Ive been playin sports for about a year and I have really bad knees… There always hurtin when I do things.. My shoulders only hurt when I use them
Read More I have had bicepts tendonitis on goin for about 10 months. I went to therpy(ulta-sound, streching, deep tissue massage, and rotator stregthening) for two months. The benifits were minimal but did help minimize the pain a little. What should be the next step. If surgery, how invasive is the process?
What is the down time? What is the rehab time? Will I be 100%? Any suggestions/comments would be greatly appreacated.
About a year ago I had my big L toe operated on. It was not able to bend so the doctor shaved down the bones. Apparently Shaquil O’Neil has the same thing. I was told it would be fine, but now any bending on this toe is excrusiating! I was told it has a lot of arthritis in the nuckle. What can I do. They wont fuse it because I am 36 and active. HELP!
Read MoreI tore my achillies tendon 10/31/2016, did not recover completely but was able to play college ball one last year. Now it is 2015, I haven’t been active in a year. Went to the gym, worked with a trainer and now my ankle and my achillies tendon is swollen in one spot right above the heel. Should I get it checked out or should I just stretch more and then reduce my activity?
Read More About 9 months ago, I became really sick, and I developed arthritis over several areas of my body, but mostly in my ankles.
My doctor diagnosed it as Henoch Schonelin Purpurra.
I was barely able to move for nearly seven weeks, and my ankles remained painful and swollen for maybe 5 more weeks. I no longer suffer from the arthritis.
But now, every morning when I first stand up from the bed, it feels as though my soles on my feet are “popping” as if I had bubble wrap inside my feet, and when I put weight on them, all the bubbles pop.
And my ankles are very stiff, and I have to walk gently for a few minutes before I am comfortable.
Then I’m pain free for the rest of the day.
Is this something I should be concerned about? Will this last the rest of my life?
Or is this just some sort of damage from the HSP? My doctor has since moved, and I’m not sure if it’s worth bothering another doctor over.
I am now ready to begin physical therapy after being in a cast for 4 months.
I don’t have any medical insurance and can not afford the physical therapy that my doctor has recommended.
I need information on the exercises so that I can do them at home.
Thank you.
I’ve had reoccuring athletes foot for years. In the last two months, it’s become increasingly painful and seemingly worse. Between my 4th and 5th toe I now notice a green area that is consistently green. I tried treating this with over the counter stuff, but it’s not helping and it’s incredibly uncomfortable. Could this be another condition aside from athletes foot?
Read Morei recently have developed severe neck/shoulder/head pain. the pain seems to start in my right shoulder,along the top, it radiates up into my head, along the right side centered between the back of my head and my right ear. it radiates the other way, down my arm to the elbow. when I exercise by walking, the right arm almost seems to go numb.. I do not have a noticeable shortness of breath. I sometimes also get a numbing sensation down my right leg. any ideas?
Read More My son was playing in a highschool football game about three weeks ago and got tackled.
His shoulder pad was shoved up under his armpit.
He had an indentation in the muscle (I guess the tri-cep)at the top underneath part of his arm closest to his armpit.
It hurt him at first and now he say it does not bother him.
My concern is, the indentation is worse now…. It is very noticeable.
Will this go away or should I take him to an orthopedic doctor? Thanks…..Liz
