My dad is 73 and very active. He walks a lot every day. But recently, one of his knees is swollen and hurts badly. We don't know if it's because of walking too much or some age-related issue. Should we stop the walks and take rest, or see someone for therapy?
Ans: Hello Anonymous,
For few days please let him rest it out.
Since there is swelling and quite a lot of pain yes please let him once see either an orthopedic Dr or a physiotherapist who can check and diagnose the cause of the pain.

Hello, I am a long distance runner currently struggling with a stubborn achilles tendon injury near the insertion point on my right ankle (back of the heel). Recently, i have also developed pain in both peroneal tendons. Despite multiple physiotherapy sessions, consistent strength training, weeks of rest and anti-inflammatory medication, the pain returns as soon as I resume physical activities whether running or even walking. I am feeling extremely frustrated and would greatly appreciate any advice on how to overcome this persistent issue. Are there alternative treatments, rehab strategies or diagnostic steps I should consider?
Ans: Hello Dinesh,
Are you taking important supplements like Vit d3, Vit B12, Calcium, magnesium or have you done your recent blood work to test all these?
What treatment are they doing in the physiotherapy sessions? Are they doing cupping therapy, dry needling, myofascial release?
For strength training are you doing under guidance and fine tuning your core muscles and mainly hip rotators?
Before walking/running are you doing 10 minutes warm up and post the run a proper 10 minutes of stretches to cool down?
It would be a good to also do a dynamic foot scan to understand how your foot pressures are happening as at times a customized foot wear helps a lot.
You would need an in depth evaluation and proper physiotherapy rehabilitation in a very systematic way.
Which city are you from?

There are so many branches in physio itself-sports, musculoskeletal, neuro, pediatrics physio etc. After her bachelors she can select according to her passion.

Cervical Spondylosis With C5-C6 Disc Bulge: What's the Best Therapy For Me?

One of the best ways to treat a disc bulge is via the Mckenzie method. In my past 20 years of physiotherapy journey I have seen excellent results with the Mckenzie method.
Please go to a Mckenzie certified physiotherapist and let them evaluate in details and accordingly prescribe the exercises.
In few extreme cases when physiotherapy doesn't work then you need to probably visit your orthopedic doctor and see if medicines/surgery is required for your case.
All the best!

One of the best ways to treat a disc bulge is via the Mckenzie method. In my past 20 years of physiotherapy journey I have seen excellent results with the Mckenzie method.

Should I continue taking omega-3 for right bundle branch block?
Ans: Hell Jayanta,
Usually if a right bundle block is not giving symptoms as such it is considered as a benign condition by Drs and not something to worry about. About the supplements etc better to discuss once with your cardiologist or general physician. You should check your vit d3 and b12 levels too if not checked recently.
Overall for any heart condition maintaining a healthy diet is very important so it would be good to once consult a nutritionist. It can play a huge role. Also getting adequate and deep sleep is important. Definitely moderate exercises like walking, yoga, pranayama can help a lot.

49 and Knee Pain: What Can I Do?
Ans: Hello Anonymous,
Have you shown a good physiotherapist? If not, please do. Certain exercises for the knee, hip, calf, core and also some heat/electrical modalities given by a physio can help you towards pain relief and also to prevent further degeneration.
You should also test your Vit D3 and Vit B12 levels as those along with calcium and multivitamins can help. Yes, collagen supplement may also help. Regarding this it is better to ask your orthopedic or general physician to prescribe.
Also I believe a lot in holistic approach so applying ghee and gently massaging around knee cap may help you.

Knee Pain & Weakness After Accident: Can I Recover?
Ans: Hello Anonymous,
For how long did you do the physiotherapy? Are you still continuing with the physiotherapy?
Have you done recent MRI?
Aqua-therapy which means doing exercises in water can help heal the knee very well. If possible for you please ask a certified aqua-physiotherapist or go to a center that has aqua-therapy and do exercises there in their pool. This will help you in developing proprioception which will strengthen the muscles around the knee very well. Also your core muscles need to be worked on.
Also please go to a good sports physio or a physio who does myofascial release. You may need therapies like cupping, dry needling, myofascial release rather than only conventional physio. That can help your waist pain and knee.
