I'm a 25-year-old woman, 54 inches tall and weigh 50 kg. My wrists are very thin with visible nerves, and my hands are overall slender. The rest of my body is strong and well-proportioned, but my wrists make me feel self-conscious. Is there any way to increase wrist and forearm size permanently, like through medication or surgery? Should I see an orthopedist, dietitian, or cosmetic surgeon for this issue?

View allWhat are the different ways to do ACL reconstruction surgery in India and does this surgery also fix meniscus issues Which method works better for recovery Will I be able to get back to my usual physical activities like before after the surgery Also what's the average cost for this surgery in India
ACL reconstruction surgery in India typically uses minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques, with various graft options like autografts (using your own tissue, often from the patellar tendon or hamstrings), allografts (donor tissue), or rarely, synthetic grafts. The surgery can be combined with meniscus repair or removal if needed. Recovery time is generally 6-12 months, and with proper rehabilitation, you can often return to your previous physical activities. The average cost can vary depending on the hospital, surgeon, and specific procedure, but it's generally in the range of ‚Çπ1,50,000 to ‚Çπ3,00,000.

I had a knee injury 4 weeks ago and now it's really stiff I can only bend it to about 80 degrees. My doctor says I need at least 100 degrees of flexion before surgery, but my ligament tear is making movement tough. I'm doing daily physio is it really necessary to get that much bend before they can operate? Just worried if pushing too hard could cause more harm.
A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I've been dealing with arthritis for 7 years and the pain is making movement really tough lately. Is hip replacement surgery safe for someone like me? I've been taking painkillers when needed is that okay or should I be careful about timing? Also, what's the approximate cost for this surgery and where's the best place to get it done? I'm considering physiotherapy too would that help before or after the surgery?
Hip replacement surgery is generally safe even for individuals with arthritis. Physiotherapy can help with pre- and post-surgery rehabilitation. Painkillers are fine in moderation, but consult your doctor about timing to avoid overuse. The surgery can cost anywhere from ‚Çπ1.5 lakh to ‚Çπ5 lakh, depending on the hospital.
