I'm curious about how long it usually takes to have a plaster removed from a small bone like the metatarsal or the little toe. Is there a typical timeframe for healing in these cases? Just trying to understand what to expect.

I've been having mild pain in my left inner elbow and forearm, especially after using my phone or laptop for a while. I already have ulnar nerve subluxation in my right elbow and surgery is planned for that, but this left side pain is different no tingling or subluxation, just discomfort that eases with massage. Could this be related to overuse or something else I should be concerned about
The mild pain in your left inner elbow and forearm, especially after using your phone or laptop, could be related to overuse or a similar condition to your right elbow's ulnar nerve subluxation, but without the tingling or subluxation. While it's different from your right elbow, it's still worth investigating. Since it eases with massage, it may be a less severe form of nerve irritation or muscle strain. However, it's wise to consult with a doctor or physical therapist to rule out other potential issues and get personalized advice.
