I'm dealing with this consistent pain running from the back of my left shoulder to my hand, and it's been like this for a month now. I started with severe pain and had to take an injection from an orthopedic doctor. I also went through physiotherapy with heat and IFT for a week. The physiotherapist mentioned I have a muscle spasm, but my orthopedic doctor thinks it might be Fibromygenia. I'm doing exercises every day, but the pain in my left hand gets worse as the day goes on. What do you think is going on? Any advice would be really helpful.

I've been dealing with a throat infection for a month now, and I'm quite worried because my ASO titre levels are sitting at 600 UI. Can you help me understand what this means and suggest any treatments?
I am suffering from throat infection to one month.my aso titrelabel is 600ui.pls suggest treatment Based on your symptoms and ASO titre level, it seems like you may have a streptococcal throat infection. I recommend taking a course of antibiotics to treat the infection. You can take Amoxicillin 500mg three times a day for 7-10 days. Additionally, you can also take Ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours as needed for pain and inflammation. Make sure to drink plenty of fluids and get plenty of rest to help your body recover.

I'm experiencing a strange cold, wet sensation just below my right knee, and I've been having some pain in both knees, especially when climbing stairs. My calf muscles also feel warm. I've had my vitamin D levels checked, an MRI of my back, and some physiotherapy, but everything seems normal. Why am I feeling this sensation in my knee, and which type of doctor should I consult?
You may be experiencing nerve-related symptoms in your knee. The sensation of coldness could be due to nerve irritation or compression. Since your MRI of the back is normal and you have already undergone physiotherapy, it may be helpful to consult with a Neurologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try taking a medication like Gabapentin to help with nerve-related symptoms and pain. Additionally, you can apply a topical medication like Capsaicin cream to the affected area for pain relief. It's important to follow up with a Neurologist for a comprehensive assessment and tailored treatment plan.
