View allI'm a 31-year-old male and I recently got a hyaluronic acid injection for chondromalasia. I've noticed a bit of swelling in my leg, from my knee down to my foot. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it just part of the process? Also, how long does it usually take to see the full benefits of the injection?
Mild swelling in the leg from knee to foot after hyaluronic acid injection for chondromalacia is a common and temporary side effect, typically resolving within 1-3 weeks; the full therapeutic effect of the injection usually becomes apparent within 4-6 weeks, with optimal results often seen after 2-3 months, but individual responses may vary, so follow-up with your doctor to monitor progress and address any concerns.

I've been having a lot of back pain lately, and sometimes it spreads to my hip. I cant sit for more than 15 minutes or walk for more than 30 minutes without the pain kicking in. This all started just 25 days ago, and I can't help but worry about how long itll take for me to get better. Plus, I'm concerned about how this might affect a future pregnancy. Could you give me some insight into what might be going on and what I should do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing muscle strain or a posture-related issue, which is common but can cause discomfort. Since it's been ongoing for 25 days, I recommend seeing a doctor for a thorough evaluation to rule out any underlying conditions. With proper treatment, this shouldn't affect your pregnancy, but early intervention is key to a quicker recovery.

I just got my MRI report and it shows a high grade partial thickness tear in my ACL with some retraction and a small bony avulsion near the tibial eminence. There's also mention of a chip fracture in the posterior tibial plateau with bone marrow edema. Can this heal on its own or will I need surgery? I'm really worried about the extent of the damage and what it means for recovery
