I'm really worried because I've been dealing with this pain just above the tip of my coccyx for the past 7 years. I've been taking diclofenac sodium and paracetamol, but I'm looking for a more permanent solution, maybe something homeopathic. It's really tough because I can't sit for long periods and any jerking motion makes it worse, even small movements are painful. The pain is now spreading to my legs, and I occasionally get a fever when it's bad. My MRI results showed a disc bulging at L5S1, nerve compression, lumbar lordosis, and acute angulation of the coccyx. I'm 31 years old and would really appreciate some advice on a suitable long-term solution or medication.

View allI'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.

Can shoulder dislocation be treated without surgery What are the best non-surgical options for fixing a dislocated shoulder I'm really worried about needing surgery and want to know if there's another way to heal properly
Yes, shoulder dislocations can often be treated without surgery, especially for the first time or less severe dislocations. The most common non-surgical approach is closed reduction, where a doctor manually repositions the shoulder joint back into place. Following this, immobilization with a sling and physical therapy are key to recovery
