I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with shoulder pain for the past two weeks, and applying things like Moov or Relaxyl hasn't helped at all. It feels like my head is leaning forward when I walk, and there's this uncomfortable stiffness radiating from my shoulder down my back. Could you help me understand what's going on and suggest what I should do next?

My husband has been dealing with shoulder pain for two years now because of gym exercises. The MRI shows a small partial thickness tear in the anterior fibers, no full-thickness tear or tendon retraction, and some fluid in the subacromial bursa along with acromioclavicular arthropathy. Can this be treated with medication or will he need surgery?

Partial shoulder tears can often be managed conservatively with rehab‚ÄîMRI review and ortho consult are advised.

Can you suggest non-surgical treatment options for horizontal tears in the anterior horn of the lateral meniscus and posterior horn of the medial meniscus? There's also a bit of joint effusion and I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if possible

I've had this small lump near my elbow for about three years now. It's about 2cm and gets painful if I press on it. I'm noticing it might be slightly bigger, but it's still not really visible to others. Do you think I should consider surgery for this?

It sounds like the lump might be a benign growth like a cyst or lipoma, especially if it's been there for years and is causing mild pain. Since it's growing in size and causing discomfort, its best to consult with a doctor to assess whether surgery is necessary.
