View allI recently had a collision while playing football, and unfortunately, I didn't wear my guard. I got hit on my shin bone, and now it's swollen and painful to walk. I've had shin bone injuries in the past, but this one is the worst. What can I do to help it heal?
Considering your obstetric history and current pregnancy, I'll provide a brief assessment: *Obstetric History* 1. *Previous deliveries*: 1st C-section at 33 weeks, 2nd SVD (spontaneous vaginal delivery) at full term, and 3rd C-section at 36 weeks. 2. *Gap between 3rd and 4th pregnancy*: 8 years. 3. *Current pregnancy*: 34 weeks 2 days, cephalic presentation, placenta anterior. *Key Considerations* 1. *VBAC (Vaginal Birth After C-section)*: Given your previous C-sections, VBAC is a possibility, but it's essential to discuss the risks and benefits with your healthcare provider. 2. *Gestational diabetes*: You're on insulin (5050, 20x10), which indicates gestational diabetes. This condition may impact delivery options. 3. *Placenta anterior*: This placental position may increase the risk of placenta previa or postpartum hemorrhage. *Recommendations* 1. *Consult a healthcare provider*: Discuss your obstetric history, current pregnancy, and delivery options with your healthcare provider. 2. *Assess VBAC eligibility*: Your healthcare provider will evaluate your suitability for VBAC based on your medical history and current pregnancy. 3. *Develop a birth plan*: Create a birth plan that outlines your preferences for delivery, pain management, and postpartum care. 4. *Regular prenatal check-ups*: Continue with regular prenatal check-ups to monitor your pregnancy and adjust your birth plan as needed.

I have a grade 1 posterior medial meniscus tear will this heal on its own or do I need surgery? I'm worried about making it worse if I don't get the right treatment. What's the usual recovery time for something like this?
A grade 1 posterior medial meniscus tear often heals on its own without surgery, especially with rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) therapy. The usual recovery time for a grade 1 meniscus tear can range from 6 to 8 weeks, but this can vary. Surgery is usually not needed unless symptoms persist or worsen after a few months.

What are some non-surgical ways to fix knock knees? I've been looking for treatments but haven't found anything solid yet and really don't want to consider surgery. Are there exercises or braces that actually work?
Gentle physiotherapy,quadriceps strengthening,and custom valgus braces can help mild knock knees;severe cases often need orthopedic assessment but many improve non-surgically.
