Can you tell me more about piles surgery at this hospital? How long does the procedure usually take and what's the recovery like? I'm a bit worried and want to understand what to expect.

View allI just got my MRI report and it shows a high grade partial thickness tear in my ACL with some retraction and a small bony avulsion near the tibial eminence. There's also mention of a chip fracture in the posterior tibial plateau with bone marrow edema. Can this heal on its own or will I need surgery? I'm really worried about the extent of the damage and what it means for recovery

My mom is 47 and has meniscal tears in her knee along with osteoarthritis. The doctor recommended arthroscopy but I'm worried if surgery is the best option given her osteoarthritis. Should we consider conservative treatment first or go ahead with the surgery?
For a 47-year-old with both meniscal tears and osteoarthritis, a conservative approach is often recommended before considering surgery, especially arthroscopy. While surgery can provide temporary relief, studies suggest that nonsurgical treatment, such as physical therapy and pain management, may be more effective and prevent further osteoarthritis progression.

My uncle has been in the hospital for 10 days with a comminuted displaced fracture of his right acetabulum that also extends into the superior pubic ramus. The scan report suggests surgery but we're unsure is surgery the only option or are there other ways to treat this? He's been on bed rest so far and we're worried about the best next steps. Could you give a second opinion on whether surgery is necessary or if there are alternatives?
