Question

Can a palsy patient with a badly fractured leg be treated with surgery or is it too risky

Question

I fell during a cricket match and had internal bleeding, got an MRI that shows a near complete tear in my anterior cruciate ligament. It's been about a month and a half at home, and I still can't bend my knee fully only partially. What's the success rate for treatment, and how much would surgery cost?

Question

My husband has been dealing with shoulder pain for two years now because of gym exercises. The MRI shows a small partial thickness tear in the anterior fibers, no full-thickness tear or tendon retraction, and some fluid in the subacromial bursa along with acromioclavicular arthropathy. Can this be treated with medication or will he need surgery?
