I fell off my bike two months ago and have been dealing with sacroiliac pain since then is it possible to heal this completely without needing surgery or will I have to consider going under the knife?

A traumatic event such as a car accident, fall, or a sudden twisting motion can lead to SI joint pain. Like other injuries to the body, this may heal on its own over time. However, if the pain persists for longer than three months, then it may be time to seek treatment.

MRI scan shows a high-grade partial ACL tear in my left knee and some meniscus issues. The doctor is recommending arthroscopic surgery but I'm not sure if it's necessary. There's also a mild strain in the PCL and tears in the lateral meniscus. The medial meniscus looks thinned out too. Do I really need the operation or are there other options?

ortho review is advised.

I've been dealing with a hard lump on my right shin for a couple of months now. It's about an inch in diameter, really firm but not painful. I play soccer every day, so I'm wondering if it's just a bruise or something more serious. Should I be worried?

The hard, painless lump on your shin, present for a couple of months, could be a benign bone growth, such as an osteochondroma or a bone spur, possibly related to repetitive trauma or bruises from playing soccer; however, to rule out other potential causes, like a stress fracture, soft tissue tumor, or infection, consult an orthopedic doctor or a sports medicine specialist for a thorough evaluation, including a physical examination, X-rays, or an MRI, to determine the cause and appropriate management.

What are the downsides of choosing a hamstring graft instead of a patellar graft for ACL surgery I'm a 19-year-old athlete and worried about how it might affect my performance or recovery long-term Is a hamstring graft worse than a patellar graft for ACL reconstruction I play sports and want to know if it'll impact my strength or flexibility later As a young athlete getting ACL surgery, should I avoid a hamstring graft I've heard it might not be as strong as the patellar option and I don't want to risk my future in sports What are the risks of using a hamstring graft for ACL repair I'm 19 and really active so I need something that won't hold me back later Would a hamstring graft make my recovery harder or limit my athletic ability compared to a patellar graft I'm only 19 and want to get back to sports as strong as before

we can then consider surgical options.
