I woke up one morning with severe EDEMA. The pain in my fingers was incredible. My fingers were turning blue and I couldn’t get my loose rings off. What the heck? I lived in Vail, CO and was a daily downhill skier and thought I would ski into my ‘70’s. Married to a diabetic couch potato who has lost his posture due to working 7 days a week on the friggen computer. I went Ketogenic Lifestyle by accident and lost 77 lbs in 4 months painlessly! Great info. I love physiotherapy! Much better than pain pills 💊! I hate them. I want to live the rest of my life with ZEST & cannot wait to work in the yard when I wake up! That was the younger me. Now I have neuropathy when sitting too long & balance issues. People think I am drunk when I get up after seated for long periods of time. I have a titanium & nickel implant in my right big toe due to taking a STATIN DRUG CALLED VYTORIN! It wasted my muscles away to the point of being violin 🎻 strings. This story is too long to explain. But you guys give me HOPE! Thank you 🙏 so very much! I am 68 years old now and refuse to live a long life, long in pain. I have always loved physical therapy after surgery, but hate appointments. Anything I can do at home I am on board. Keep the videos coming. I am so grateful!

I can remember in high school doing the toe raises for basketball we used a 4X4 put our toes and ball of foot on the timber a did the raises and this was with a weight jacket on. Now as I said this was high school and 50 years ago but I remember how it helped with the muscle extension and balances as we were required to stay on the balls of our feet to run and move. You definitely didn’t want to get caught standing flat footed. I absolutely love the show and the help I get from it especially at my age.

I've been diagnose with bone spurs, degenerating meniscus and bone spurs in both legs, one tear on the right and two on the left. I have unload two new complaints where for hours just the other day I had pain from my groan to my foot. Just radiating. Then last week when I try to stand up it was so painful right at the knee cap. Driving and trying to use my feet to scoot up in my seat also cause so much unbearable pain till I lift the left and just use the right to push up.

And the knee feels like I can get off of the ibuprofens not much pain just trying to heal so I can get back to work.

@j7ndominica051 3 жыл бұрын

Could pain in the back at the hip on the left side be related to swelling of that leg, which was caused by sitting pressed against the edge of the chair and desk? No pain ever below. What could be done about it? The joint feels inflamed and painful when I put weight on it, such as when standing one leg. And could anything be done with brown, scarred skin from past inflamation? Sometimes when sleeping with swollen feet I would wake up in pain because i put my weight on the little bone and blocked a blood vessel like a bandage on a finger. I didn't even know there was an essential pipe there. Walking with a purpose to a shop or similar beats static exercises, and rapidly drains out edema. Even in hot summer.
