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 broke my arm and the x-ray shows a fracture but im not sure if it needs surgery or can it heal on its own with just a cast or natural treatments
A fractured arm can heal naturally with proper medical treatment, often with a cast or splint. However, some fractures may require surgery to realign bone fragments or stabilize the fracture. Whether your fracture needs surgery or not will depend on the type, location, and severity of the break.

How can I tell if my right knee ACL injury needs surgery and how do I figure out how severe the injury is
To determine if your ACL injury requires surgery, and its severity, a doctor will typically use a combination of your symptoms, physical examination, and imaging tests like X-rays or MRI. A complete tear or severe instability usually indicates a need for surgery, while minor tears may be managed with physical therapy.
