persistent pain after bunion surgery

Hello, 12 months ago I had bunion surgery, and was thought to have had CRPS for 6 months until it gradually resolved. Now, my operated foot is more painful than pre-op, and the arthritis in both feet seems worse. Xrays show no problem with the operation healing but I'm told my foot fat pads are thin...

cervical stenosis

Hello, I'm 62, I'm interested about cancer risk as I am a DES daughter. I had a couple of gynae ops which resulted in complete cervical stenosis for the last 8 years. I have had 2 u/s scans - in 2016 and in 2018 showing endometrial thickness of 4.4mm and 6.6mm respectively. I've not had any other te...

is it osteoarthritis?

I'm 61 and for the last few years have had aching and burning pains in my all fingers, knuckles and now toes. Also there are 2 or 3 joints particularly sore and a bit swollen. It can vary in intensity, but I'm always sore in the evening especially if I've been using my hands a lot. It's hard to make...

painful bladder

Hello! I have a problem with frequent pain and pressure in the bladder, day time frequency, with no urgency, no incontinence. I have had a few episodes in the past but after surgery in August last year (open uterosacropexy and pelvic floor repairs) it’s been bothersome most of the time. A cystoscopy...

Prolapse problem

I'm a slim and active 60 year old but have had prolapse issues (and ops) over the years after a traumatic 1st delivery. I had a recurrence of large cystocele and uterine prolapse so last August I had an open uterosacropexy with posterior and perineal repair. No cystocele repair was done. Only 6 week...

Are RF and Hifu treatments safe?

THere is a lot of promotion for "non surgical face" lifts, such as Radio frequency (monopolar) and Hifu (ultrasound). Do they cause fat loss from the face in older women? I am finding it hard to get an answer to this question. I have also seen both treatments specifically marketed for fat ...

Prolapse surgery

Hello, I am a slim and active 59 year old. Following a traumatic first delivery with forceps at 27 years old (and 2 more big babies) I have had recurrent problems with prolapse and am now awaiting uterosacropexy plus pelvic floor repair + probably rectocele/cystocele repair. I had a Manchester repai...

cervical stenosis

I am 57 years old, fit and well, I'm not taking HRT. I have a question about smear tests. I had a Manchester repair in 1988 following my first birth, followed by enterocele, rectocele and cystocele repairs in 2013. After that last op, my gynecologist was unable to find the cervical opening as it had...
