I'm really struggling with sitting on a chair for more than 8 hours a day. It's causing me some heavy lower and upper back pain, and on top of that, I'm experiencing shortness of breath pretty frequently. I've spoken to a few doctors, and they've suggested B12 for the back pain and some gastric tablets for the breathing issues, but I still haven't seen much improvement. I'm getting a bit worried. Do you have any advice on what else I could try or what might be going on?

I have a grade 3 ACL tear and some other ligament damage in my right knee is surgery absolutely necessary? I've heard about stem cell therapy would that be a better option for full recovery? Which treatment will help me regain full knee function and biomechanics? Really confused about what to choose for the best long-term results.

The ACL is a stabilizer of the knee. It is quite important for the bio mechanics of the knee. Knee is not a simple hinge, but a complex bicondylar joint. Many studies have shown that ACL injury if left untreated may lead to early arthritis and injury to the menisci. But in simpler terms, if the knee buckling and feeling of give way is severe, better to reconstruct. Stem cell therapy helps in regeneration of tissue, but it's efficacy if still not fully documented. But it will have no immediate stabilising effect. I don't know any studies which have shown ACL regeneration with stem cell therapy.
