Acne :: Under Skin Lumps
I am now 30 years old. I did not have serious acne problem on my face until the age of 27. Since the age of 27, my face started to have acne as shown in the images as attached. They usually start with little lumps under the skin. If I apply pressure to it, luckily there will be some grease in white color coming out from the pore, but more often the grease fails to come out, and the area becomes darker and darker, water starts to diffuse out of the area. Then the area starts to become painful ....

View 1 RepliesEasy Bruising - Always Quite Hard Lumps
I have a problem with easy bruising. I am 40 years old, reasonably fit and have no major health issues. For the past year I have noticed that I have been bruising very easily, and in particular the bruises are always quite hard lumps. I even had some pretty big haematomas on my legs after a few knocks playing football.
Anyway I have been to my docs, and had all the basic blood tests and everything came back normal. Then I was referred to a Haematologist for another 2 sets of tests, all of which again were normal - some of the common bruising things tested for were - Von Willebrand's, platelet functions, factor 13, all of which were fine. I think I have pretty much had all the tests that can be had for blood disorders.
So I don't really know what to do now - the specialist couldn't come up with anything really. The bruises are more annoying than dangerous, but I'd like to try and get to the bottom of the issue. I don't have any other problems with bleeding.
One thing that happened that may be connected is that just before I noticed the increase in bruising, I had a second infection of Strep throat (bacterial tonsillitis). I had to go through 3 different types of antibiotics as I was mildly allergic to 2 of them - one gave me a mild rash, the other gave me a sore back (i though it was my kidneys but the doctor checked and said it wasn't). So it may be just a coincidence by it seem to me that this has messed with my immune system and caused the bruising problems.
Currently I am taking a course of probiotics to see if that can re-dress the balance, but it does not seem to be making a difference.
I have a healthy diet, play tennis twice a week and football once a week.
Breast Pain :: No Lumps - Perimenopause
I'm going 49 yrs old thru perimenopause and lately I've been having breast pain it gives me pain in my arms as well as my chest. I check my breast regularly and can't feel any lumps or any other changes in my breasts, the pain is mostly in the left one. I also get painful joints since starting perimenopause. I went to see my family doctor and he checked my breast and tells me there's nothing to worry about. I ask him if I needed a mammogram he said no...I don't know if I should get a second opinion? No one in my family has ever had breast cancer.
View 19 RepliesOrthopedics :: Big Toe Shortening Post Bunionectomy
6.5 weeks ago I had bunion surgery and joint fusion, and apparently the surgeon has also 'lifted' my big toe up, I'm not sure what the medical term is. I'm still not walking without the orthopaedic shoe for another 1.5 weeks, so it's hard to say if it has been successful or not yet. I have a giant scar right down the side of my foot which doesn't bother me really and a plate and screws. My big toe is now almost a couple of cm (about half an inch) shorter than the same toe on the other foot, which it never used to be. Have others had this too? From an aesthetic perspective, it's weird but I guess I'll get over it. What about other physical complications?
I'm 27 and very active normally. I still have a decent amount of swelling, particularly in one spot where perhaps the plate is (I really hope I don't have to have it removed!). I'm hopeful for a good recovery but had hip surgery only 9 months ago and that didn't work very well. I knew two surgeries in a row would be tough, but it's been harder than I expected, possibly because I had the opposite hip done so bearing weight has been hard and it was my right foot so I've been stuck not being able to drive. I keep reminding myself it could be worse.
I've booked a hiking holiday in 3.5 months time, I know I'll probably suffer some swelling but really hope I can do it without pain.
Ankle Swelling Still After 6 Months Of Bunionectomy
I had a bunionectomy done on my left foot in November of 2012, and I was feeling pretty optimistic after reading multiple stories of people recovering, jogging, even resuming all regular activities in scheduled recovery time. Well after 3 long months I ditched the crutches for a boot and it seemed like I was progressing except my ankle was constantly swelled. I followed with constant icing and elevating the ankle but nothing changed. When I finally started walking (limping) I noticed the swelling was still there and quite painful so I went to my doctor. He told me it was nothing and part of the recovery, so continue my stretches, and so I did. Weeks later and my ankle is still keeping me from walking regularly, and wearing a proper normal shoe. I went back and my doctor took a closer look and determined that my Achilles tendon was swollen and I would have to take PT. Well 2 hard weeks of PT and stretching, I thought maybe I'd finally solved my problem but I haven't. I'm almost into my 6th month since surgery and my ankle is still swollen. Everytime I get up, I have to stretch out my foot or I'll have a slight limp, my ROM is still pretty limited, and after trying jogging I threw in the towel. I'm very discouraged from not hearing any similar stories and that I've been away from my passion of tumbling for almost half a year.
View 2 RepliesLoss Of Movement Still Have Some Pain After Bunionectomy
I had a bunionectomy in August on each foot. I have lost a lot of movement on the right foot and still have some pain. The left foot was very painful and both toes are extremely crooked. In January I had a second bunionectomy on my left foot and a screw placed. I still have moderate pain, especially with lots of walking. I have noticed a round spot that is getting larger underneath my toe almost like the screw came through and is working it's way out the bottom. Is this possible? Also, both toes now bend sideways at the second joint, literally the top half if each toe bends toward the pinky toe. Has anyone had this issue? Can it be fixed and is it worth it? I wish I could undo all the surgery and just live with the original pain and disfigurement.
View 1 RepliesPain And Swelling 3 Months After Bunionectomy
I had a bunionectomy done on my right foot in December of 2013. They had to bread the bone, shave off a good portion, and put a couple of pins in. The surgery went good and I had minimal pain for about 3 weeks after the surgery. Now I am about 3 and 1/2 months out from surgery and I am still having some pretty major swelling. I still can't wear most of my normal shoes and my socks leave indents on my foot. When I wake up in the morning it will look like it's not swollen, but by mid-morning it is swollen again. My doctor prescribed me arthrotec to get the swelling down, but I've been taking that for a month and it's not helping much so far. I am a nursing student and I'll be graduating in 6 weeks and hoping to get a job. I really need to be able to wear regular shoes and be on my feet for up to 13 hours a day.

View 4 RepliesPain After 6 Months Under My Big Toe Lapidus Bunionectomy
I am 6 month out from lapidus bunionectomy along with several other procedures. I have been having alot of pain under my big toe. It feels too low and I have expressed my concern to my surgeon and he said what I am feeling is normal. Last night I read the results from my last xray and it states I have a very low first metatarsal. 4 degrees too low. Has anyone ever experienced this? Is this normal? Is there anything that can be done? Why wouldn't he just tell me. I just want this fixed. I am calling another doctor to morrow to get their opinion. Will my foot ever be normal again.
View 5 RepliesFoot / Ankle :: Capsulitis Of Second Toe Following Bunionectomy
I had my second bunionectomy about 8 months ago, and my big toe is still elevated. It just doesn't reach the floor when I walk. Consequently, I've had a lot of pain in the pad below my second toe on that foot. Just looking for information, I thought it was a Morton's Neuroma because the pain and area seem similar, but the pain is actually under the toe, not between two toes.
When I have found information on this condition, it sometimes refers to "Crossover toe" where the second toe starts to cross over the first toe. In my case, it's starting to look like crossunder toe. The second toe is tending to slip under the first.
When my podiatrist diagnosed it, he prescribed me an anti-inflammatory ointment to rub on twice a day and he told me to push the joint of the big toe down. I've been doing it over a week now and I haven't seen any improvement. I see the doctor again this Friday.

I had a bunionectomy 2.5 years ago, the surgery went well and recovery was fast, now, for the last 6 months or so, my big toe makes an audible clicking noise when I walk, so much so that people have commented on it, could the bunion surgery have caused this? also, probably unrelated, I have recently been diagnosed with a plantar fibroma on the same foot
View 1 RepliesPain A Year After Bunionectomy Foot Surgery
I had bunionectomy surgery on both my feet last summer, so its been 16 months for my right foot and 15 months for my left foot. I had hallux limitus on both feet, and my doctor broke the bone on both big toes, shortened them, cleaned up the joint and bunions on both feet, and removed a bone spur. I was about 8 years into this problem, so my foot problem was getting to be a big issue. Walking has been my main form of exercise for years. I no longer have pain in the joints of my toes but my big toe does not lay flat anymore. My second and third toes take all the pressure, and my second toe feels like I am walking on the bone, starting to get very painful. I also have pain in the ball of both feet, and it is getting worse. I started exercise walking gradually but do it very little now....maybe 1/2 a mile once or twice a week. My podiatrist said there were no exercises to do after surgery, no pt. I went to a different podiatrist about 5 months ago, and he said he could break my other toes, and try to line them up with my big toe to try and relieve the pressure, but of course I don't want to do that. Anyone have an experience like this, or thoughts?
