I'm curious if the injection called Deca Durabolin is legal or not, and what the conditions are for using it. Is it safe for my health?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Deca Durabolin, a brand name for the anabolic steroid nandrolone decanoate, is a prescription-only medication, and its legality varies by country; in the US, it's a Schedule III controlled substance, while in some countries, like India, it's available by prescription for treating conditions like osteoporosis, anemia, and some types of breast cancer; however, using Deca Durabolin without a medical prescription or for non-approved purposes, such as bodybuilding or performance enhancement, is illegal and can pose serious health risks, including cardiovascular problems, liver damage, and hormonal imbalances

View allI'm really worried about this pain I've been having. I fell on my left side while trying to stop a cricket ball, and now I'm feeling a lot of pain near my lower left rib cage, especially when I'm moving around, walking, or even just turning in my sleep. It's been about 5 days now, and I'm getting concerned that I might have injured my spleen or if it's just a muscle tear. Could you shed some light on what this might be?
It sounds like you may have strained the muscles around your lower left rib cage, especially since the pain worsens with movement. While a spleen injury could cause pain in the area, its less likely unless there's significant trauma, such as a direct blow. If the pain persists or worsens, its best to consult a doctor for an evaluation.

I'm having some trouble with my shoulder when I throw a cricket ball. It actually hurts a lot, and for about five minutes, it feels like my hand isnt even connected to my body. I'm not sure whats going on. Could you give me some advice on what I should do about this?
The shoulder pain and temporary numbness or disconnection sensation in your hand after throwing a cricket ball may indicate a shoulder injury, such as a rotator cuff strain or shoulder impingement, or possible nerve compression; consider consulting a sports medicine specialist or physiotherapist for a proper evaluation, and in the meantime, apply the RICE principle: Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation to alleviate symptom
