I had a minor bike accident a few weeks ago and since then, I've been experiencing this nagging pain on the right side of my ribs, just below my right breast. At first, I assumed it was just a typical muscle pain that would go away, so I tried using Volini gel and a hot gel bag for a couple of weeks. But there was no improvement, so I decided to get an X-ray after my doctor suggested it, and it came back normal. My doctor then put me on some painkillers for muscle pain, and I've been taking them for about a week now. But the pain is still there. It's really intense when I make minor body movements, during sudden jolts while traveling in a bus, car, bike, or rickshaw, and even when I hiccup. Sleeping has become uncomfortable too, as I can't turn to my sides. What should I do to get some relief from this? I would really appreciate some guidance.

View allCan I get a total hip replacement done under spinal anesthesia if I have ankylosing spondylitis but my spine isn't fused yet I'm worried about general anesthesia because I feel weak and have breathlessness issues no other health problems diagnosed so far
Yes, you can likely have a total hip replacement under spinal anesthesia even with ankylosing spondylitis if your spine isn't fused yet. Regional anesthesia, including spinal and epidural, is often preferred over general anesthesia for hip replacements, and can be safely used in patients with ankylosing spondylitis

I've been dealing with this recurring pain for years and seen multiple doctors but no one has been able to fix it properly. Every 3-4 months I get these horrible flare-ups where I can't move at all due to severe pain in my right hip, lower back, and what feels like nerve compression making me want to cut my leg off. Painkillers are the only thing that helps me function. I'm considering surgery but worried if it'll actually give me permanent relief or not
MRI is advised,post share the report.

I've been having some moderate pain in my tennis elbow area, and I'm starting to wonder if there's any way this could be related to excessive masturbation. Could that be causing it or making it worse? I'm really curious about how these things could be connected.
Excessive masturbation is not directly related to tennis elbow pain. The pain in your elbow is likely due to overuse of the muscles and tendons in that area. To help alleviate the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (Advil) or naproxen (Aleve) as per the recommended dosage on the package. Additionally, you can apply a topical analgesic cream like diclofenac (Voltaren) to the affected area. Resting the arm, using a brace for support, and doing gentle stretching exercises may also help in relieving the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
