I'm 6 weeks post-op from arthroscopic surgery on my right shoulder for an ALPSA lesion and need to start active movements and external rotation exercises. Since I can't see a physio right now, what exercises can I safely do at home? I also have slight pain during internal rotation should I be concerned about that?

View allI have scoliosis in my lower back and my x-ray shows it's C-shaped near the base of my spine. Is there any way to fix this without surgery? Are there specific exercises that might help correct it over time? I'm really worried about whether this can improve without going under the knife.
Mild scoliosis can improve with core strengthening, physiotherapy, and posture correction; regular follow-up is key, surgery only if worsening.

I've had a completely dissolved left hip joint for the past 13 years, which has made my left leg about one and a half inches shorter than my right. I just had a baby via C-section and am currently breastfeeding. When would be a safe time for me to get hip replacement surgery? Walking has become really difficult for me lately.
If you have recently delivered a baby through C section, you should wait for atleast three months to allow the body to recover. Even after three months, your blood tests and other investigations should be done and surgery should be performed only if you are medically fit for the same. Hip replacement is not an emergency and is an elective procedure. When performed by a Joint replacement surgeon/ Fellowship trained Orthopaedic surgeon, you will get excellent long term results.

I was diagnosed with a medial meniscus tear on an MRI about a month and a half ago and still can't bend my knee fully. It hurts when I stand or walk is there a chance it could heal without surgery? What should I do to stay safe and help it recover?
Medial meniscus tear may heal with physiotherapy and rest if small;surgery is needed for mechanical symptoms or persistent movement limitations.
