Question 1

I'm really concerned about my mom's upper left arm pain, which is just above her elbow and below her shoulder. It's not super severe, but its enough to disturb her sleep. She used to have pain in her elbow joint, but thankfully that got better. She thinks its because she's not a stomach sleeper and tends to sleep with her arms under her body, but she can't seem to change her sleeping position. She doesn't have any health issues; her blood pressure's usually normal, and her sugar levels were checked last October 2015, along with her Vitamin B12 and D3 levels, which were low at the time. She took the prescribed tablets then but isnt on any medication now. What could be causing this, and should we be doing something differently?

Accepted Answer

I would advice to undergo Vitamin D3 tests and Vitamin b12  again to know the values now.

Question 2

I'm experiencing some pain in my left leg, specifically around my knee joint at the back and my toe joint, after having sex with my wife. We typically have sex about twice a week. Should I be worried about something serious, and what kind of doctor should I consult for this issue?

Question 3

I'm 20 and I play basketball regularly, but I've been having some issues with my knee. Every time I fold my leg, there's this bubble popping sound in the knee joint, and it's pretty painful. Also, my knees are feeling really weak. What can I do to help with the pain and make my knees stronger?
