I am 49 yr old male. I have grade 2-3 testicular varicocele?as well bulging. I fell about a month ago on some ice and landed on my tailbone and palms of hands. Really hurt my rotator cuff. Also I was diagnosed in 1992 being HIV positive. I am in physical therapy and I have some pain medicine but it s not enough with all I have going on. I don t feel like my ortho doctor is taking in my whole case and treating me enough. Should I try pain management or new ortho specialist?
Hi, You can take analgesics like Tramadol or Acetaminophen for pain relief. If the symptoms are severe you have to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated. An MRI scan may be required to assess the extent and its severity. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
