I've been having this pain around my right collar bone and shoulder, and it gets worse when I sneeze, cough, or take a deep breath. It's really bothering me when I move my arms, and even when I lean on my left shoulder, the pain kicks in. What could be causing this? Should I be worried or get it checked out?

This type of pain can be caused by muscle strain, injury, or inflammation. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen. Additionally, applying ice to the affected area and avoiding activities that worsen the pain can also be helpful. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to seek further evaluation from a healthcare professional.

I've been having a tough time with this back muscle catch for the last three days. It's really making it hard for me to turn, bend, or even get a good night's sleep lying flat. I'm starting to worry because I have some family events coming up and I really need to be in good shape for them. Are there any treatments or home remedies you can suggest to help me out?

Question

I had an arm wrestling match at the hostel and completely broke my humerus, right above the elbow and below the shoulder. They did an operation two days later and used something called an extra-articular plate. How long is it going to take for this to heal fully? And when will I be able to hit the gym again? I'm really curious and a bit worried about my recovery timeline.

Question

I'm really worried about my MRI results showing a chronic partial ACL tear and this buckling happening at the back. It also mentions a small chronic grade 3 tear in the posterior horn of the medial meniscus reaching the inferior meniscal surface. What should I be doing about this? Does this mean surgery is unavoidable, or are there other treatment options I should consider first? I'm just anxious about what this all means for my mobility and day-to-day activities.
