Question

I've been diagnosed with lytic lesions in my foot and had an X-ray done. The doctor recommended surgery, but I'm a bit unsure and would like a second opinion. Can you review my case and let me know if surgery is the best option or if there are other treatments I should consider?

Question

I'm really worried because my lower fibula has been swollen for four days now. I recently broke my tibia and fibula, and when I press on top of my fibula, it hurts. I can walk, but there's a bit of pain. Should I be concerned, and do you think I should see a doctor about it?

Question

I had a knee injury 4 weeks ago and now it's really stiff I can only bend it to about 80 degrees. My doctor says I need at least 100 degrees of flexion before surgery, but my ligament tear is making movement tough. I'm doing daily physio is it really necessary to get that much bend before they can operate? Just worried if pushing too hard could cause more harm.
