I have ulnar nerve subluxation in my right elbow where the nerve pops out over the medial epicondyle when I bend my arm. Every doctor I've seen recommends surgery, but I'm wondering if homeopathy can help stop the nerve from moving instead

While homeopathic treatments may offer some relief from pain and inflammation associated with ulnar nerve subluxation, there is no scientific evidence to support their ability to stop the nerve from moving or reposition it. Medical professionals recommend surgery (anterior transposition of the ulnar nerve) as the most effective treatment for ulnar nerve subluxation because it addresses the underlying issue of nerve displacement and prevents further damage

View allI have a grade 1 posterior medial meniscus tear will this heal on its own or do I need surgery? I'm worried about making it worse if I don't get the right treatment. What's the usual recovery time for something like this?
A grade 1 posterior medial meniscus tear often heals on its own without surgery, especially with rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) therapy. The usual recovery time for a grade 1 meniscus tear can range from 6 to 8 weeks, but this can vary. Surgery is usually not needed unless symptoms persist or worsen after a few months.

My MRI report shows a complete tear in the middle part of the ACL and a full tear of the distal MCL. Is there any chance these injuries can heal on their own without needing surgery? I'm really worried about recovery options.
A full ACL tear typically requires surgery for a full recovery, especially if you are active or have high physical demands. While some individuals can manage with bracing and physical therapy, the ACL lacks a blood supply and heals poorly without surgery. MCL tears, on the other hand, often heal well with conservative treatment like bracing and physical therapy, even if they are full tears.
