I had an accident a few years back and the doctor said it was just a bone fracture but the issue came up again last year when a scan showed minuscules and a torn ligament do I really need surgery or can this heal on its own

Whether surgery is needed for a meniscus and a torn ligament depends on the severity of the damage, your symptoms, and your overall health. Minor tears may heal on their own, while more significant tears or complications may require surgery according to medical sources

I'm feeling some pain at the base of my neck, and it radiates to my shoulder whenever I turn to the right side. I saw the doctor, and they mentioned it might be a cervical rib. Could you explain what this is? I'm a bit worried about what it means and what I should do next.

My sister recently finished physiotherapy and quad strengthening exercises, but she still struggles with a lot of knee pain due to chondromalacia. We've noticed it gets better with icing and rest, but it's tough since she really loves dancing and doesn't want to quit. Is it okay for her to try Zumba or aerobics, or would that just make things worse? Any advice would be really helpful.
