Does drinking beer impact ACL surgery recovery I'm doing my physiotherapy daily but wondering if I should start gym workouts too
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's generally not recommended to drink alcohol after ACL surgery, especially in the initial stages of recovery. Alcohol can interfere with the healing process, potentially leading to complications like increased bleeding or infection. It can also disrupt your sleep, which is crucial for recovery

View allI fractured a muscle in my right leg a few months ago and now Im seeing these dark lines on the nerves in my thigh. Is this something I should be worried about? Could it be a serious issue?
The dark lines on your nerves could be due to bruising or inflammation. It is important to monitor for any changes in sensation, color, or temperature in that area. To help with healing and reduce inflammation, you can take ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed. Make sure to rest your leg and elevate it when possible. If the dark lines persist or if you experience worsening symptoms, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm currently being treated for a lateral femoral condyle fracture and wearing a long knee brace without surgery. Just got my MRI reports. Wondering if there are any specific exercises, suggestions, or special meds that could help speed up recovery? Really want to get back on my feet faster.

I'm only 52 inches tall and everyone in my family is taller than me even my siblings and parents. I also have bow legs which make me look even shorter. Are there any treatments like growth hormones or surgery that could help me grow taller and how much would they cost? I've been feeling really hopeless about this and don't know which doctor to see for help
Height gain is limited after puberty; limb-lengthening surgery is complex and costly—orthopedic consult needed.
