I'm getting a clicking sound in both knees with pain and discomfort, plus slightly bow legs. One doctor diagnosed a discoid meniscus and recommended surgery to trim it, but another doctor said my MRI looks normal and suggested strengthening exercises. My legs still feel really uncomfortable what should I do since the opinions are conflicting?

Discoid meniscus can cause knee pain and clicking; if MRI shows no tear, try 6 weeks of physio first—if pain persists or worsens, surgical trimming may be needed.

I was in an accident a couple weeks back and got some injuries on my elbow, forearm, and knee. Initially, my knee swelled up, not exactly where the injury was, but close by. All the injuries have healed now, but there's still swelling in that spot. I'm concerned whether it's just swelling or maybe some blood clotting. I couldn't bend my knee before, but now I can, although there's still some pain where the swelling is. Could you give me some advice on what's going on?
It sounds like the swelling near your knee could be due to a soft tissue injury or internal bruising, which can sometimes take longer to heal. Since you can now bend your knee, that's a positive sign, but the pain and swelling might take a little more time to subside. I recommend applying ice and elevating the knee, and if the pain persists or worsens, consider consulting a doctor for further evaluation and possible imaging.

My relative's been dealing with Bone TB in the back, specifically the spine, and he can't walk now. He's been on medications and injections for about 17 days, and he's eating fine. Is there any hope for a full recovery? The pain in his back is pretty severe, even though he's taking Rectac 500 to help with it. What more can we do to help improve his condition?
