When should I worry about upper back pain?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

If pain develops suddenly and is severe, such as from an injury ( fall) and if pain and symptoms (eg, weakness) progressively worsen you should seek medical attention.

I'm a 25-year-old woman, 54 inches tall and weigh 50 kg. My wrists are very thin with visible nerves, and my hands are overall slender. The rest of my body is strong and well-proportioned, but my wrists make me feel self-conscious. Is there any way to increase wrist and forearm size permanently, like through medication or surgery? Should I see an orthopedist, dietitian, or cosmetic surgeon for this issue?

can ACL injuries heal with just exercises or is surgery always necessary what should I do if I have an ACL injury to recover properly

While some mild ACL tears might heal with bracing and rehabilitation, complete ACL tears typically require surgical reconstruction for optimal recovery, especially if you are an athlete or want to return to a high level of physical activity. A torn ACL does not heal on its own, and delaying surgery can lead to further knee damage.

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.
