Hello, am a 49 year old female, detected with chondromalacea patella. My right knee is stiff and nota ble to walk properly. Have consulted the Orthopedic but not much improvement. Kindly suggest what should I do. Can you pls suggest any collagen supplement and does that help.

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.
All the best!

Hello Dr Nidhi, Dr Shakib and Dr shreya Had an accident 1.5 yrs back. I had a small fracture with z bone where legaments attached on backside of knee.Also i had dislocation of 5mm of leg below knee. I was treated with belt for whole leg PTS brace for 4 weeks then PCL/CI Brace for next 3 weeks alongwith gradual physiotheropy at home. But unfortunayely my legaments could not get strenth and I cannot walk as normal before. I have pains. I did Physiotheropy exercizes but could not do gym exercizes. I have kidney function issues creatnine 1.5 and protien 2 plus So I took ayurvedic medicines as was already taking for kidney issue. Also I am a vegetarian. I am really under tension as I cannot walk with normal speed as wrll as for long distance and perform other routine duties. Even my left knee has also giving pains since last 2 month and my low waist is also giving me much pain since last three months. Not done any exercise in last month. Pleasd give me proper guidance to recover. Thanks

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.

After breast cancer treatment what medicenes need to continue ??

Ans: Hello Anonymous,
Regarding the medicines it is the oncologist who can decide.
My mother also had breast cancer and what really helped her was a lot of alternate therapies along with the allopathy.
So if possible please do add a very good nutrition care, maybe some yoga, breathwork, Bach flower remedies, pranic healing etc. It can really help accelerate the healing and prevention of further diseases.

I am a 38 year old software developer with a remote job. My work involves a lot of sitting and working late hours. I want to reduce my weight, especially my belly fat. Can you suggest some simple exercises to begin with? Thank you in advance

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
So happy you have taken the decision to become fitter.
Below 3 things can help you:
1) Please get up and walk for 5 minutes every 1-2 hours. Especially after every meal make sure to walk for 10-15 minutes or at least 100 steps. This can start making a difference to reduce bloating and fat around the belly. You can just walk around your work place or go down and walk if there is place.
2) Spot reduction is not possible. Also every person is different. It will be best if you visit a physiotherapist or gym trainer at least once so they can check your body composition and assess your muscle strength and accordingly advise which exercises are most suitable for your body type. Some breathwork should also be included. Also your vitamin D3/vitamin B12 levels need to be checked.
3) Nutrition plays an even greater role in weight loss than even exercises. Please go to a nutritionist and get a nutrition chart made for you. It will help you a lot. Within 1-2 months you will start seeing the weight loss happening with good healthy nutrition.
All the best!

I am a 77 years old male . During last 1 year approx I am facing blackout all of a sudden & falling on the floor. I have got checked 3 doctors 3 times during previous black outs. I get fainted for a short time 30 seconds approx, one doctor asked me to take x-ray of shoulder area , that revealed two bone 3rd & 4th has come closer. I am trying for a certified physiotherapist for treatment . I need to know what is the real cause and what sort of treatment will cure my problem?

Ans: Hello Prabir,
Have you consulted a neurologist too?
Black outs can be due to many reasons like low bp, some issue in the brain area, vestibular issues or yes maybe from neck and shoulder muscles being tight.
First you need to rule this out with a neurologist. If all ok from his/her side then you can visit a physiotherapist. They will need to check mainly the sides of your neck muscles called as sternocleidomastoid muscle for trigger points. Accordingly if tight they will need to do release the muscles via myofascial release techniques like dry needling, cupping etc.
Take care and all the best for a healthy life ahead!

i am ashok kumar 68 yrs old male I dont get sound sleep in night what should i do

Ans: Hello Ashok,
Please once get all your blood tests done. At times when Vit D3 or Vit B12 is low sleep does get affected.
Also if there is some anxiety or emotionally something is bothering you then sleep can get affected.
I would advise you to get into a good night routine. You should take a warm water bath with some rock salt in it or you can dip your legs for 15 minutes in a bucket of water with some salt in it. You can do journaling like just pen down your thoughts in a diary. You can also do some anulom vilom or only left nostril breathing. This promotes deeper sleep. Yoga nidra can also help. Walking for 20 minutes can also help. Aromatherapy can help. All these videos you can find on YouTube.
Doing a good night routine before sleeping helps at a physical, mental and emotional level and definitely helps in deeper sleep.
All the best!

My mother is around 70 years old. Her head spins sometimes and it automatically goes off. This is happening around a month but not every day. How to cure it?

Ans: Hello Priyabrataa,
It is important to know the diagnosis. Head spinning can be due to various reasons like low blood pressure, low sugar levels, vestibular dysfunction, inner ear issues or even neurological.
Please first get her entire blood tests done. If all ok then visit an E.N.T. to rule out ear issues else you can first show your general physician so he can do a thorough check up.
Lastly head spinning can even happen due to some muscle triggers in the neck for which a physiotherapist can help.
To cure any issue we need to first understand the diagnosis.

If unknowingly I sleep for hours together the pain migrtaes to left ear or even to other parts in left side. So I need to take pain relieving medicines in such cases. Earlier such cases used to be at larger intervels but now a days it is frequent. It also happens that some times I getup witha head ache(leftside).My BP is under control and is under medication.

But during workout for abdominal strength, there was some pain in my back & doctor suggest for MRI and found there was slip disc / disc herniation issue of L4-L5. During last 2.6 years, does several physiotherapy with renowned physio center, yoga & focusing on my diet plan. After 1.6 years also comparing MRI report, shows almost same situation. Need your guidance in this matter, how to recover from pain. Because my current situation is, while standing 5-6 minutes, or walking 5-10 minutes, pain increase from buttock to left side feet. Then I have to take rest for 3-4 minutes, to start again. So, please guide me or suggest me as per your experience. Thanks Arun kumar

Ans: Hello Arun,
Please do let me know more details about the physiotherapy done. Did they give you a Mckenzie program for slipped disc as that is one of the best treatment for disc issues. It includes systematic exercises like wall side glides, road kill position, back extensions. If you are having pain on left side of leg/feet it seems to be a posterolateral disc protrusion for which the wall side glides are very important.
Have you been working on your core? Are your Vitamin D3 and B12 levels ok? How much is your weight now?
If not already please goto a Mckenzie certified physiotherapist and it can make a lot of difference.
If not ok after that also then you may need to go to an orthopedic doctor and consider a minor surgery for the disc.

You could also visit a yoga teacher and learn some good asanas and breathwork. That will also help your back and knee pain.
All the best!

I am 65 years old female diabetic for more than 20 years but sugar is in control with hba1c 6.8.my concern is my legs especially knees not joints are paining even if I stand or walk for half an hour.kindly advise what to for my leg pain thanks in advance

Ans: Hello Anonymous,
HbA1c of 6.8 is on the higher side. Ideally you should aim to get it below 6.
Have you consulted a nutritionist? Are you doing some form of yoga especially the pranayama part 4-5 times a week atleast?
With nutrition care and breathwork if your Hba1c can be lowered then your leg pain should also improve.
Also have you visited a physiotherapist for your knee pain? Have you done an x-ray? I need to know some more information to be able to guide you.
Usually physiotherapy can help. They may do techniques like Ultrasound, mobilisation, taping and some specific exercises which can help you. So if you have not already please do visit a physiotherapist for your knee pain.
As a home remedy you could also try massaging your knees gently with some warm ghee or sesame oil.
All the best!

My wife is 36 years old and she is suffering from L4 L5 and s1 slip disc. Is it advisable to go for a child now?

Ans: Hello Anonymous,
There are thousands of women who have conceived after slipped disc.
The main thing is she should be pain free currently and her core and pelvic muscles should be strong.
It would be very good for her to consult a good physiotherapist or a therapeutic yoga teacher who can check her once and guide her towards good nutrition, some form of meditation, breathwork and exercises. If she can work towards preparing her body physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually for 6 months towards pregnancy then definitely she can be strong enough to conceive and have a beautiful and healthy pregnancy journey.
All the very best!

Question by Deepak - Sep 25, 2023Hindi

Hello sir/ma'am, I'm 47 years old man. I just started playing lawn tennis in the morning timings but I feel pain behind my ankles regularly. Please suggest me some remedy

Ans: Hello Deepak,
During sports like lawn tennis there is a lot of pressure on the ankles suddenly because your foot needs to keep moving to keep pace.
This tends to strain the ankle ligaments quite a lot. You need to do a good 10 minutes warm up before you play especially movements like taking your ankle up, down, in, out, rotations clockwise and anti-clockwise. You can search for a basic warm up video on YouTube. Post the lawn tennis you need to stretch your muscles especially calf muscles for few minutes. If do warm up and cool down the ankle pain should start subsiding.
Till then you can ice your ankle for 20 minutes each to start reducing the pain.
All the best!

Ans: Hello Tatavarty,
Did your parents or grandparents have diabetes as it could be hereditary?
Do you carry more stress in your mind as that can also lead to diabetes?
Now since you do have it let's look for the solutions. Along with medication please do consult a nutritionist or Ayurveda doctor. Even though you are having good food certain dietary modifications may really help you.
Also yoga can help you as the asanas create a massage kind of effect on your internal organs which may help the pancreas.
Do you meditate regularly? Some form of meditation should also help you.
All the best!

Question by mahesh - Oct 18, 2023Hindi

I am 45 years old, I have a lot of pain in the heel of my foot, please give me some solution. â€‹

Ans: Hello Mahesh,
Heel pain is usually due to plantar fasciitis, trigger points in the calf muscles referring pain to the heel or due to a calcaneal spur. It could also be due to your core muscles being weak and putting stress wrongly on the heels of your feet or due to wrong footwear.
Please see a physiotherapist once, they need to do a detailed evaluation to understand the diagnosis and accordingly advise the treatment.
To begin with you can soak your feet in a bucket of tap water for 10 minutes followed by soaking them in warm water with some salt in it for 10 minutes every night before sleeping. This usually relieves the pain a bit but you need to definitely understand the diagnosis of it by going to a physiotherapist,
All the best!

Question by Paul - Jan 10, 2024Hindi

Dear Doctor, I had suffered viral fever in the third week of November, and since then suffering from Joint pains- in my ankles, elbow, wrists, knees, finger joints, etc. I tried Homeo medicines for a month, but it continued after the effect of the medicine was over. Any cure for the same?

Ans: Hello Paul,
Joint pains may occur after a viral fever. However usually within 6 weeks it should settle.
Have you done your blood tests recently especially for Vitamin D3, Vitamin B12, uric acid etc? If not please do a complete blood profile to know if anything is amiss.
Ayurveda can help with this. They can recommend certain oils you can apply on your joints and also give you some nutrition modifications which can reduce inflammation in your body and thereby reduce your joint pains. Example if sugar, dairy and gluten containing products can be curtailed it usually helps a lot.
You may also once visit a physiotherapist. Some mobility exercises shown by them may help you too.
I feel with consultation with an Ayurveda doctor and a physiotherapist should help you quite a lot.
All the best!
