Can you suggest non-surgical treatment options for horizontal tears in the anterior horn of the lateral meniscus and posterior horn of the medial meniscus? There's also a bit of joint effusion and I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if possible

View allMy doctor said I have a fracture in my ankle and foot and recommended surgery, warning that without it there's a 30-35% chance of developing arthritis. I'm not sure what to do should I go ahead with the surgery or are there other options?
If surgery is recommended due to the risk of arthritis, it’s worth considering to prevent long-term complications. Consult a second opinion if unsure about the surgery or explore non-surgical alternatives like a cast or brace.

I've been having mild pain in my left inner elbow and forearm, especially after using my phone or laptop for a while. I already have ulnar nerve subluxation in my right elbow and surgery is planned for that, but this left side pain is different no tingling or subluxation, just discomfort that eases with massage. Could this be related to overuse or something else I should be concerned about
The mild pain in your left inner elbow and forearm, especially after using your phone or laptop, could be related to overuse or a similar condition to your right elbow's ulnar nerve subluxation, but without the tingling or subluxation. While it's different from your right elbow, it's still worth investigating. Since it eases with massage, it may be a less severe form of nerve irritation or muscle strain. However, it's wise to consult with a doctor or physical therapist to rule out other potential issues and get personalized advice.
