I've been experiencing constant pain in my legs, mostly around my knees for about a month now, and it's getting hard to climb stairs. I'm really curious about what's causing this pain. Could you help me understand what's going on?

The constant pain in your legs, mainly around the knee area, and difficulty climbing stairs could be due to various reasons such as overuse or strain, osteoarthritis, ligament sprains, tendonitis, or even vitamin D deficiency; consider consulting an orthopedic specialist

I have been discovered with bakers cyst 12 cm in backside of my knee ...the knee hurts and calf muscles have swelled ...I am on medication for osteoarthritis. Will the cyst go away on its own and if drained by syringe will it come back Do I need surgery
A 12 cm Baker's cyst at the back of the knee can be large, causing pain and swelling, and may be related to osteoarthritis. While some Baker's cysts resolve on their own, this one may need treatment, possibly including aspiration (draining with a needle), and surgery is rarely needed. If drained, the cyst can return if the underlying knee problem isn't addressed.

I'm a bit concerned about my Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) results. I recently got tested, and my ESR came back at 27 mmhr, which I hear is 7 mmhr above the normal range for males. Should I be worried about this higher rate? And what could cause my ESR to be elevated like this? Would love some clarity.
Hi Chaithan, An ESR of 27 mmhr is slightly elevated but not necessarily a cause for concern. It can increase due to mild inflammation, infection, stress, or other temporary factors. If youre feeling unwell or have symptoms, its best to consult your doctor for further evaluation. Take care!
