I'm experiencing pain in the upper side of my chest, and it feels like it might be related to a bone or muscle because there's some swelling under the skin. My lower neck sometimes aches too. The pain in the swollen area seems to flare up every now and then. What could be causing this, and should I be worried about it?

Which is better for treatment a surgeon or a homeopathic doctor? Can medicines alone fix health issues without needing surgery? I'm worried about going under the knife and want to explore other options first.

I've been experiencing pain in my manubrium with some swelling on the left side. It really hurts when I move quickly, breathe deeply, or yawn. Plus, there's this weird sensation in my throat at different times during the day, almost like something's stuck there. Could these symptoms be pointing to something serious?

my right leg is completely affected by polio and my left leg is partially affected are there any surgical options to help strengthen both legs

Yes, there are surgical options that can help improve function and stability in legs affected by polio. These options aim to correct deformities, improve muscle strength, and stabilize joints. Surgical interventions for polio often involve tendon transfers, releases of contractures, and in some cases, procedures like osteotomies (bone reshaping) or leg lengthening.
