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

I've been dealing with cervical issues for about a year now with symptoms like neck pain, stiffness, occasional numbness in my hands, and headaches. Can bone spurs be removed through surgery and how safe is the procedure?

I recommend starting with physiotherapy and painkillers to manage your condition. If there's no significant improvement after a reasonable period, we can then consider surgical options.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is often considered as a non-surgical alternative for certain knee conditions. It's important to note that the effectiveness of PRP versus surgery depends on various factors, including the severity of the knee issue and individual patient characteristics PRP treatment for an ACL tear can vary in cost, but in India, expect to pay between ‚Çπ5,000 and ‚Çπ20,000 per session, with some clinics offering packages that include multiple sessions. The total cost will depend on the severity of the tear, the number of sessions needed, and the specific clinic
