Had surgery for giant cell tumor removal from my distal femur knee area on 14/4/2022 with extended curettage cementing plating. It's been 3 weeks but I can only bend my knee around 75-80 degrees and feel heaviness near the surgical site. Is this recovery pace normal or should I be concerned about my knee's range of motion?

Had ACL reconstruction surgery a month ago and my periods are late my last cycle started right before the surgery. Normally, my next cycle comes around 45 days early. Could the anesthesia or strong meds from the surgery be causing this delay?
Yes, it's possible that the surgery, anesthesia, or medications could be contributing to your late period. Surgery and anesthesia induce stress, which can affect hormone levels and menstrual cycles. The strong pain medication used after surgery could also have an effect. It's advisable to discuss this with your doctor to assess the cause of the delay and rule out any other potential factors

I've been dealing with left shoulder pain for two years now, and it's really limiting my movements some motions cause intense pain. My BP is under control, but the MRI showed issues in my left shoulder. One doctor suggested rotator cuff repair surgery, but I'm unsure if that's the best option. What would you recommend for long-term relief, and what should I expect if I go through with the surgery?
Chronic shoulder pain with MRI findings often benefits from rotator cuff repair—physiotherapy first, then surgery if no relief; recovery takes weeks.
