I'm dealing with spine TB and have been on ATT with complete bed rest for about four months now. I've started doing some cycling for 30 minutes because I really want to lose weight, but I'm wondering if this is a good choice since I sometimes feel pain in my spine area. I don't want to cut down on calories, so I'm hoping to lose weight through physical activity. What would you recommend? Should I keep cycling or maybe try something else?

Continue ATT as advised by the pulmonologist.

View allmy fingers are bending on their own but there's no pain. I'm thinking about getting surgery for this but I'm not sure if it's safe or if there are any risks involved. what should I know before going ahead with it
If your fingers are bending on their own without pain, it could be due to Dupuytren's contracture or trigger finger. Before considering surgery, discuss your concerns with a doctor or specialist to determine the best course of treatment, as non-surgical options are often tried first.

I have a high grade partial ACL tear with grade 2 signal intensity in the posterior horn of my medial meniscus and a grade 2 LCL sprain. I'm unsure if I need surgery my main goal is to walk normally, cycle, and run without restrictions. I don't want to feel limited, but I'll do surgery if it's absolutely necessary. Can you help me understand if surgery is the only way to get back to normal?
It's understandable to want to know if surgery is the only path to your desired recovery goals. For a high-grade partial ACL tear, a grade 2 medial meniscus tear, and a grade 2 LCL sprain, surgery is not always necessary for full recovery and returning to activities like walking, cycling, and running, according to HSS. However, your specific situation and individual factors will determine the best course of action

I'm dealing with a bit of an issue with my finger after catching a cricket ball. My x-ray came back normal, but there's still a little pain. I also feel some movement in the proximal phalange when I press on the joint. Should I be worried about this, or will it heal on its own? Any idea how long it might take to recover?
if the xray Is normal, then there might be a soft tissue injury. take rest and apply a ice pack. take a pain killer. it will be alright within a few days. regards
