Lately I have been experiencing this pop that seems to be coming from my ankle or the lower side of my foot. I don’t know from where it’s coming because it doesn’t even hurt, but it makes me feel like I’m probably walking on a loose tendon or a small fracture. Any similar experience?
Hello everyone, I am not sure I have this yet. I did have an MRI of my lumbar spine which shows mild disc bulging but spine doctor does not believe that is what is causing my symptoms. From the Internet, I learned that the pain that I have is basically in my buttock area it could’ve been missed from the lumbar MRI and that I may need one the focus is more where the butt is. Please let me know any suggestions.
As far as my symptoms, the best way I can describe it. Is this bruising like pain right below my hip bone area right below my butt cheek. This kind of pain has been traveling from different places of my leg. I get that sensation on the lower leg, running up to my Quads. I am also getting lots of pins and needles on the outer part of my foot and sometimes a pulling sensation of my toes. Please let me know if this is something you guys experienced with this condition or syndrome. I was truly disregarding sciatica until I read on the Internet thatthis syndrome existed. I did fall two years ago on that side of my hip and ever since then I had some soreness going on. I am only 37 years old and I feel like I have so much going on right now in my body.
I am here in hopes of some advice since my doctors have dismissed me so much OK so here I go about two months ago I started having foot discomfort specifically on the toes and on the top of my foot. to not make this story so long. I have pain on top of my foot when I am wearing shoes, right where my shoelace is land. My third toe is curling and with that there’s some like numbing sensation. At one point when everything started about two months ago I didn’t notice that on top of my foot. I could see the tendons very prominent as if something was pulling all of my toes. In between my third and four toe, there was this little line that resembled an angel hair pasta string. I have gone to the podiatrist. She was helpless. She mentioned that more than likely the issue was coming from a lower back. I went to Neurologist and did an EMG and came back clear and said that he wasn’t sure what was happening to my foot and lower leg but proceeded to request a lumbar MRI which came back somewhat normal with a very mild nerve compression. From there, he referred me to a spine doctor and spine. Doctor said that even though I had that mild compression, it was not enough or did not correlate with the symptoms that I was having. Please if you have a guess of what this could be and who could I go to next? I would truly appreciate it. At this point, I’m thinking of an orthopedic doctor. Could this be foot extensor tendinitis thank you in advance.
Does anybody in here with cerebral palsy also has cervical spondylosis?
Have any of you guys had any surgery of any kind as an adult and how did you handle it? Any issues with anesthesia?
So after about six weeks of torture with leg discomfort, more than pain, I just found out yesterday that I have two huge bursitis on my left knee and Copella Alta. I’m not gonna lie. I’ve cried so much in desperation. I have been two times to the hospital and they refused an MRI I’ve gone to my regular doctor and a Neurologist and no help. I decided to google for a place that did MRI without referral and I was lucky enough to actually find one. My leg discomfort was mostly on my foot where the top of my foot would feel stiff and my toes would feel and look like they were pulling upwards or contracting. massage helped to relax the toes and the top of the foot but when I would flex my foot upwards, there was some tingling on the lower foot. I had a mild weird sensation on my knee. Throughout the week I noticed that when I would walk symptoms would basically go away. as soon as I sat down or lay down, the tightness would return. It would sometimes be felt on the side of my lower leg, which made me think of maybe a peroneal nerve dysfunction. Anyway, now I know that I have those two huge bursitis on the knee, possibly compressing on those nerves, causing all those symptoms. Anyone with similar experiences and symptoms?
I have previously posted in here that I have spastic CP. And that I have been experiencing some leg discomfort where hospitals doctors were sure it was due to my CP. Fortunately, I advocated for myself and looked for a place that would do an MRI with a referral And it turns out I have two huge bursitis on my left knee and Capella Alta. Anyone had had anything similar happen? Also, I’ve been having elbow pain on the other side of the elbow and some wrist pain and I was wondering if there’s a possibility that I’m experiencing increased specificity on my arms. Has anyone experienced increased specificity on the arms as an adult? My CP is smiled. I walk on my own, of course different but on my own and you can’t tell much that I have CP on my hands as well.
Hello everyone. So a few weeks back there was an event that happened in my life that it has definitely brought up fear into my days. So for something related to my leg, I was prescribed the muscle relaxer cyclobenzaprine. I was scared to take it so I only took half a pill the first day and since I noticed that it went well and nothing happened. I decided to take a whole pill the next day. That was early in the morning when I took it and around eight or 9 PM I noticed that my eyes started closing and opening really fast, almost as if flashlights were putting in front of my face. Then I realized that along with that I had some facial quivering or some sort of facial twitching. didn’t wanna think anything of it so I went to sleep. When I woke up the next morning, I noticed that my face felt numbed in the cheeks area, my lips and tip of the tongue. It wasn’t like a complete numbing it was just a reduced sensation. I immediately decided to make a doctors appointment and by the time I got there, the doctor came out and said your symptoms are ER. So my mother and I ran to the ER. In there they treated my symptoms as a possible stroke because my heart rate was super high, which I had not even noticed. Because I passed the evaluation test I was only monitored and during that monitoring time while I was having a normal conversation with my mother, I felt dizziness as if I was in a roller coaster, followed by burning plastic smell, and an extreme fast heart rate. I probably had that happen about six times in two hours. Doctors kept connecting my heart to a machine to check on an EKG and see the cardiac event but didn’t do much and all they would tell me is that they were waiting for me to go get a CT scan of the chest. Everything came back clear as far as the CT scan no evidence of a potential stroke. And so I was discharged at midnight with no answers. I demanded an MRI of the head to disregard focus seizures and then I wanna do it. I even said that Google said that burning plastic smells were highly suggestive of a focus seizure and they just looked at me like if I was stupid. I have never had seizures before, but I do have cerebral palsy therefore I have a lesion on my head that makes me vulnerable to seizures, even if if I’ve never had one before. From the research I did cyclobenzaprine can lower the seizure threshold. Anyway, I am looking for some opinions from people that have had focal seizures. I appreciate your opinion in advance. This has left me in severe health anxiety.
