I've been dealing with pain on the entire left side of my body from head to toe for the past 3 years. It starts at my neck, goes through my shoulder, arm, hand joints, lower back, hip, leg, and foot. The worst pain hits my shoulder joint at the back and lower back, but its only on my left side. An orthopaedic suggested I try vitamin D and B12 supplements, which I did, but they didnt help. Some days, the pain is so bad I cant even do any work, and other days its just a bit less. Im really concerned because I havent met anyone with the same issue. Could you tell me what kind of doctor I should see and what this might be? I'm really worried about whats going on.

It sounds like you may be experiencing neuropathic pain or nerve pain. This type of pain can be caused by various conditions affecting the nerves in your body. Since you have already seen an orthopedic doctor and tried Vitamin D and B12 supplements without much relief, I would recommend consulting a Neurologist for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm a bit confused about the difference between Omnacortil 5 and Wyslone 5. My doctor prescribed Wyslone 5, but the pharmacy only had Omnacortil 5 available. Is there any issue if I go with Omnacortil 5 instead of sticking strictly to the prescription? I'm worried about getting the right treatment.
Both Omnacortil 5 and Wysolone 5 contain the same active ingredient, which is Prednisolone. They are both corticosteroids used to treat various conditions such as inflammation, allergic reactions, and autoimmune disorders. Therefore, there should not be a significant difference between the two medications. You can go ahead and use Omnacortil 5 as a substitute for Wysolone 5 as per your doctor's prescription. Just make sure to follow the dosage instructions provided by your doctor.

I've been having these symptoms for about 7 months now, like this weird internal fever where I feel hot inside, but it doesn't show up on a thermometer. I also get frequent headaches and this annoying pain in my joints, especially in my hands and legs. It's gotten to the point where I'm just not motivated to do anything. What do you think might be going on with me?

My mother has had pain in her fingers and wrist for around 23 years. Our GP prescribed her DV60K and calcium, and an X-ray showed some bone erosion in her fingers and hand. She also has pain in one shoulder when lifting her arm. Blood tests didn't show any bone infection, and homeopathy didn't help much. Right now, she's taking Newbona 10 tabs a month and Nucoxia for pain. Surgery isn't an option since the pain is in multiple places, including her legs. She can still manage light hand work what other treatments could we explore?
Apollo Hospital is best for it.
