I've been struggling with joint pain for the past 10 days and my doctor mentioned it might be due to a calcium deficiency. He suggested taking calcitas powder twice a day. I've been on this for 5 days now, but I still don't feel any relief. Should I keep taking it, or is there something else I should consider?

you can not expect result in 5 days needs prolong tretament takes usually 3 months to see the results follow your doctors advice and also consume calcium rich foods for better results

View allI'm currently taking Sompraz 40, Actapro 100 mg, and Telma H 40 for my health conditions, and I recently found out that my ESR level is 22. I'm kind of worriedcould these medications be affecting my ESR readings?
The medications you're taking do not directly affect your ESR reading. If you're concerned about an elevated ESR or related symptoms (such as fever, unexplained weight loss, joint pain, etc.), it would be best to discuss this with your healthcare provider. They can assess the root cause of your symptoms and whether further testing or adjustments to your treatment plan are necessary.

Sir, I've been dealing with occasional pain in my knee joint, wrist joint, and finger joints for about a year now. Sometimes I even notice swelling in my wrist and finger joints, but it goes away after a while. My blood uric acid level is at 7.4 mgdl, and I make sure to exercise regularly. Could you please suggest a permanent treatment for this?
Aapke joints me pain aur swelling ke saath uric acid level high hone ka matlab ho sakta hai ki aapko gout ho. Uric acid control ke liye purine-rich foods (jaise red meat, alcohol, aur seafood) se bachna zaroori hai. Regular exercise ke saath, ek rheumatologist se milkar medication jaise allopurinol ya febuxostat discuss karein.

I've just found out that I've got a positive ASO titre in my test results, and it's freaking me out a bit. I've been dealing with joint pain, and my doctor recommended some tests, including the RA factor and ASO titre, and while the RA came back normal, the ASO titre was positive. I tried reading up on what ASO is online, but I'm still not clear on how and why it happens. Is it something really serious? Like, could it really mess with my joints and heart valves? I'm just really anxious about what all this means for my health. Any insights would be super helpful.
ASO titre comes positive in many cases,one among them is heart disease, don't worry maintain healthy lifestyle, visit your doctor for complete evaluation and appropriate management
