Question

My left elbow had surgery with a plate inserted two months ago but I still can't rotate my hand properly and have flexibility issues. I'm doing wax mobilization but what else can I do to recover faster?

To recover faster from your elbow surgery, continue with your current wax mobilization and incorporate a more comprehensive physical therapy plan. This should include exercises to improve range of motion, gentle stretching, and strengthening exercises for the muscles around the elbow and forearm.

Question

I have a high grade sprain with a partial thickness tear in my ACL from playing cricket and I'm really not keen on surgery. The doctor recommended surgery first followed by physio but I'm wondering if ayurvedic treatment could help instead. Right now I'm doing physio exercises and my knee stability has improved a bit. Should I still consider surgery or is there a non-surgical route that could work for me?

Question

Hey, I noticed this hard lump on my right rib cage. It doesn't hurt when I touch it, and it stays in place, feeling just like bone. But sometimes it hurts a little on its own, and I've got this pain around my right shoulder blade too. Any idea what this could be?
