I'm really curious about the process of using microfracture on the shin bone to increase height. Can you tell me how effective this is? Also, how long would it typically take to grow about 1cm using this method? I'm eager to know what to expect.

Possible Causes_

  1. Pimple or acne: A pimple on the breast can cause a bump, and the white layer on top might be a pustule.
  2. Blocked milk duct: If the bump is near the nipple, it could be a blocked milk duct, which can cause a lump or bump.
  3. Breast abscess: Although rare, a breast abscess can cause a painful lump, but in this case, your wife mentioned it doesn't hurt.
  4. Other skin conditions: Other skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or keratosis pilaris can also cause bumps on the breast.

Concerns and Next Steps

  1. Bleeding: The presence of blood is a concern and requires medical attention.
  2. Infection risk: The broken skin and bleeding increase the risk of infection.
  3. Consult a doctor: Schedule an appointment with a healthcare professional, preferably a dermatologist or a breast specialist, to evaluate the bump and provide a proper diagnosis.

Precautions

  1. Keep the area clean: Gently clean the area with mild soap and lukewarm water.
  2. Avoid squeezing or popping: Refrain from squeezing or popping the bump, as this can lead to infection or scarring.
  3. Monitor for signs of infection: Watch for increased redness, swelling, pain, or pus, and seek medical attention if you notice any of these symptoms.

The MRI report shows intraligament hyperintense areas in the ACL, abnormal hyperintensity in the posterior horn of the medial meniscus, MCL thickening with hyperintensity, bone marrow contusion in the medial femoral and tibial condyle, a radial tear in the posterior horn of the medial meniscus, and a grade 1 MCL sprain. Can partial ACL damage heal without surgery or does it need reconstruction?

Your MRI shows a few other injuries alongside the partial ACL tear, including a medial meniscus tear and an MCL sprain, which could influence the treatment decision.

I'm experiencing some pain when I'm either standing up or lying down, specifically in my leg near my stomach. It seems to hurt even more when I put pressure on it. There's no blood or anything like that, but should I be concerned about this? What could be causing the pain?
