Question 1

would someone with digeorge syndrome have rotated ears?

Accepted Answer

Has low sst ears: These babies have certain facial features  like low set ears, wide set eyes or a narrow grove in the upper lip and may have cleft palate.

Question 2

hi i have fitz-curtis-hugh syndrome , pelvic adhesions and bilateral tubal occlusion. for 2 months i have not stopped bleeding and not eating . ?

Accepted Answer

Pelvic infection: See your Gyn doctor , still you may have active infection  even possible abscess formation in the pelvi need additional antibiotics , gonococcal infection used to be the cause one time , now replaced by chlamydial organism  possible other secondary organism,

Question 3

i have bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome and every morning when i wake up and stretch my wrists and hands basically crackle. is this from the cts?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say?: Think of it this way, whatever it is that is causing the 'crackle' may be the same thing causing the carpal tunnel.  If clinically relevant, I do screen CTS patients for gout and rheumatoid arthritis but again, only if they tell me something in the history that makes me believe this is a possibility or likewise I see something on exam to suggest these.

Question 4

could there be any relationship between progressive  bilateral spondylolysis and ehlers-danlos syndrome? several potential symptoms of hypermobility.

Accepted Answer

Yes they could link: however, the E-D syndrome is not diagnosed based on this one finding.
in the US, genetic medicine/ diagnostics could greatly help with this well-described syndrome.

Question 5

does everyone that gets an endometrial ablation and bilateral salpingectomy end up resulting in post ablation tubal steriliazation syndrome/hysterectomy?

Accepted Answer

Post-ablation: No, this does not happen to everyone. However, having a tubal ligation, or having your tubes removed, after having an ablation does put you at risk for this.

Question 6

had bilateral carpel tunnel release. developed rsd .then nerve blocks for pain. now i'm told i have thorasic outlet syndrome and dystonia. is there an?

Accepted Answer

See details: Without knowing specifics and having access to test results, it is impossible to comment. None of it makes good sense to me. Consider a second opinion.

Question 7

can bilateral thoracic outlet syndrome be caused by mobile phone use (holding phone up with both hands and using thumbs to constantly type / scroll / laptop use - for approx 7 hours a day every day. ?

Accepted Answer

Doubtful : Very doubtful that typical holding of cell phone will cause this. Thumb joint pain may be a different matter;however.

Question 8

can bilateral foraminal stenosis at the l5 nerve root from grade 2 spondylolisthesis cause symptoms and sensations similar to restless leg syndrome?

Accepted Answer

: Stenosis of L-5 of the spinal canal can cause weakness, leg pain, paresthesias and this can occur in both lower extremities. Usual treatment includes surgical correction of the stenosis.

Question 9

i've been diagnosed with bilateral thoracic outlet syndrome. i often wake during the night with excruciating pain in both of my hands, arms and shoulders. my question is, what can i do to help relieve it right then? pt only made it worse. thank you?

Accepted Answer

: If indeed the diagnosis is accurate, you should consult with an experienced vascular surgeon, as a last resort intervention might indeed be surgical (excellent surgeons are scattered about the country).  Re. "right then", avoid elevating arms above chest level and monitor posture at night.  PT can work if the therapist has experience with brachial plexus therapy (not so common).  ?virtual consult?

Question 10
