View allI'm wondering if it's really necessary to have a POP for an air crack in my left hand. They used a plaster of Paris bandage on it, but I'm not in much pain. Do you think just a roll bandage would be enough?

I'm getting a clicking sound in both knees with pain and discomfort, plus slightly bow legs. One doctor diagnosed a discoid meniscus and recommended surgery to trim it, but another doctor said my MRI looks normal and suggested strengthening exercises. My legs still feel really uncomfortable what should I do since the opinions are conflicting?
Discoid meniscus can cause knee pain and clicking; if MRI shows no tear, try 6 weeks of physio first—if pain persists or worsens, surgical trimming may be needed.
