I've been experiencing this really sharp, stabbing pain in my right biceps every time I try to move my arm outwards or upwards. It's pretty new and the pain sort of shoots towards my neck. Any idea what could be causing this, or what I should do about it? It's starting to worry me.

The sharp stabbing pain in your right biceps, exacerbated by outward or upward arm movements and radiating to your neck, may indicate a potential issue with your rotator cuff, biceps tendon, or neck (cervical spine); possible causes include bicipital tendinitis, shoulder impingement, or cervical radiculopathy; consult an orthopedic specialist

View allMy husband has been dealing with pain in his right wrist for the past four months and was diagnosed with Kienbock's disease by an orthopedist. The doctor recommended surgery since he's in stage 2, and the MRI and X-ray show his lunate bone is damaged from poor blood supply. Is surgery really the only option at this stage or are there other treatments we could try first

I had ankle surgery for a trimalleolar fracture back in October 2014 with a plate in my fibula and screws in the ankle joint. Everything feels fine now no pain or major issues, just some slight swelling and my leg feels weaker than the other one. Is it safe to get the implants removed at this point?
Implants should be removed irrespective of whether they are causing any problems. Reasons- keeping implant in body has no extra advantage. Rather if one sustains another injury the magnitude of damage is much more with implant inside than without it. And implants are stress risers. Once your ankle implants are out by 2-3 weeks of rest is fine enough.

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.
Orthopedic opinion is advised to the patient.
