Sciatica slowing you down? Try these 3 tried-and-tested physiotherapy exercises to help relieve nerve pain:

1. Knee-to-Chest Stretch (Single Knee to Chest)
Set-Up: Lie on your back with legs extended.
Movement: Gently pull one knee toward your chest until a comfortable stretch is felt in your lower back and buttock.
Hold: 20–30 seconds.
Reps: Repeat 2–3 times on each side.

2. Piriformis Stretch (Figure-Four)
Set-Up: Lie on your back with knees bent, feet flat.
Movement: Cross one ankle over the opposite knee. Gently pull the uncrossed leg toward your chest, deepening the stretch in the buttock/hip of the crossed leg.
Hold: 15–30 seconds.
Reps: 2–3 times on each side.

3. Sciatic Nerve Glides
Set-Up: Lie on your back and hold the back of one knee.
Movement: Straighten the knee and gently pump (flex and point) the ankle while maintaining the leg position to mobilize the sciatic nerve.
Reps: 10 times; Sets: 2 per leg.

Remember: Always consult your physiotherapist before starting—or if pain persists or worsens, reach out to your orthopedic specialist.

Did you know there are various ways a bone can break? At [Hospital Name] in Pune, our orthopedic experts are skilled in treating all types of fractures. Here's a brief overview:

Hairline: Think of it as a stress fracture – a small, often hard-to-see crack.

Comminuted: A more severe break where the bone shatters into several pieces.

Oblique & Linear: These describe the direction of the fracture line – angled or straight along the bone.

Spiral: Often caused by a twisting force, the break spirals around the bone.

Segmental: A complex fracture with multiple breaks isolating a section of the bone.

If you suspect a fracture, timely and accurate care is crucial. Contact G. S. Kulkarni Hospital for expert orthopedic services in Miraj and Sangli.

You might have a noticeable bump on your big toe joint, but it's not causing daily pain. So, why would a surgeon recommend fixing it?

Preventing Progression: Bunions are often progressive. Over time, they can worsen, leading to more severe deformity, difficulty wearing shoes, and instability.

Avoiding Future Pain & Arthritis: While not painful now, a significant bunion can alter the biomechanics of your foot, eventually leading to painful arthritis in the joint, transfer pain to other parts of the foot, or even nerve irritation.

Restoring Function: Correcting the alignment can improve your ability to walk, stand, and participate in activities without the risk of future complications or compensatory issues.

Preventing Other Issues: A severe bunion can contribute to hammertoes, metatarsalgia (forefoot pain), or calluses as the foot tries to adapt to the altered structure.

Surgery isn't just about alleviating current pain; it's often about preserving future function, preventing irreversible damage, and maintaining your overall quality of life. Always consult with a qualified orthopedic foot and ankle specialist to understand the full scope of your condition and the best course of action for your long-term foot health.

In early stages, AVN might not cause any symptoms. As it progresses:

Pain: Often starts as mild, intermittent pain, which gradually becomes more constant and severe. It worsens with weight-bearing.

Limited Motion: Stiffness and reduced range of motion in the affected joint.

Limping: If affecting a weight-bearing joint like the hip.

Joint Collapse: In advanced stages, the bone can collapse, leading to severe pain and joint dysfunction.

गैरसमज: बोटे किंवा सांधे मोडल्याने (knuckle cracking) संधिवात होतो.

सत्य: वैज्ञानिकदृष्ट्या याला कोणताही आधार नाही! हा आवाज सांध्यांमधील वायूचे बुडबुडे बाहेर पडल्यामुळे येतो. यामुळे संधिवात होत नसला तरी, जास्त जोर लावल्यास सांध्यांना त्रास होऊ शकतो.
