Re. Pain in calf region and burning sensation in foot region

hello doc, I am a residence of Bombay,India. My husband is suffering from severe pain in calf region, also he complains of burning sensation in feet, in both the legs. He is suffering from this problem from past 4-5 years. He has been to many specialists(like neurologist, orthopaedic, Reiki specialist etc.) but nothing was really helpful.
He is not suffering from any other chronic diseases nor he is over-weight. but he is in a job where he needs to stand for 8-10 hours daily. Please try to help me as soon as possible. I would be really grateful to you.Regards .Jyoti SinghHis family background:Father – sometimes complains of burning sensations in feet.Mother – Diabetes patient from past 10 years.Elder Brother – Diabetes patient from past 5 years.

Stubbed, Jammed, or Broken Toe

I know that it may be best to see a doctor immediately when it regards any injury to one’s foot, but that is not always the available course of action in real life.
I don’t currently have insurance and can’t afford to visit a doctor for a non-serious injury.
Of course if there is a major problem I need to know and make the proper arrangements.
My question is, how can I tell if my foot is just stubbed/jammed or if it is broken?
Are there differing symptoms to be aware of?

post fractured ankle

I fractured my ankle a while ago and now I have swelling in it. Also when I play basketball after running a while and then not running for about 5 minutes it gets really cold and has very little motion. It also gets swollen during practice. I was wondering what I should get to wear to protect the keep it from swelling and going “cold”.

Thanks,

Recovery after ACL surgery

(5 discussions)

I had ACL surgery 3 months ago. One month ago my doctor called my PT and yelled that I was not far enough along so my PT started me on lunges.
While doing a lunge, I felt a sharp pain in the front of my knee so I stopped.
I went back to my doctor and now he is mad because he says my knee is too loose.
How do I get my knee to tighten up.
He will not explain to me what I need to do.
Is a burning sensation normal after ACL surgery?
Is it normal for my knee to pop and crack? Also, my PT says not to do the leg presses where you are lying down with feet up.
Why?

Plantar fibroma, alcohol sclerosing agent

(2 discussions)

I found a small bump in my arch, close to my heel that hurts to the touch, but does not hurt me to walk because of it’s location.
The diagnosis was a plantar fibroma.
I was told that these just happen and there is nothing to be done about them.
Is this true?
I’ve also have, on the same foot a stump neuroma that developed after my morton’s neuroma was removed.
My new podiatrist suggested trying an alcohol sclerosing agent to stop the pain.
Have you heard of this before? Is it something I should consider?
Thank you.
