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?

View allI have a bimalleolar fracture in my lower right leg and my surgery is scheduled in two weeks is it safe to wait that long? Also, I've noticed bruising near my knee on my calf, which seems pretty far from the ankle fracture. Should I be worried about that?
A repeat x ray is advised prior to the surgery to check any fractures and soft tissue swelling.

I'm really worried about my leg injury. A bike fell on it, and although the x-ray showed no bone injuries, the swelling and pain are still quite bad. The doctor thinks it might be a muscle crush or a blood clot under the skin. I've been using Chymoral BR, Osteonec SP, Thrombophobgel, and ice packs as prescribed. However, even after a few days, the swelling hasn't gone down, and it still hurts even if I just let it hang. He mentioned that if it doesn't get better, I might need a cut in the leg. Does this sound like the right approach? Could there be something else that's causing the swelling and pain to persist?
, some swelling don't resolve on other hand they may get infected with abcess formation , if it's local edema with just fluid collection it will subside over period of time , if its local collection of blood (hematoma) then incision is required . if there is discharge of pus with local tenderness ,get it drained or else wait.

I had an accident yesterday where my knee gave out while walking. The hospital did an MRI and the report shows a near full thickness tear in my anterior cruciate ligament. Should I consider surgery or can physiotherapy help heal it? I've attached the MRI report for reference.
ACL repair and reconstruction .ortho opinion is advised.
