I'm trying to figure out how much an MRI will cost because Ive got this shoulder injury that needs checking out. Could you give me an idea of the price for getting the MRI scan done? I'm a bit worried about how much it might be.

it depends on place where you want to get it done, in government hospital may be free , in trust hospital subside rates, generally private sector having 2 or 3 tesla MRI machine costs 7000-8000

View allI've been experiencing this constant tightness and strain in my upper chest wall, like it's always tense, especially when I do anything using my left hand. I recently found out my Vitamin D and B12 levels are significantly low from a blood test. I've started taking Tayo 60K for Vitamin D, and just a couple of days ago, I began MeAxon Plus for B12. I'm not sure if these are related, but about 10 months ago, I lifted a heavy bag and twisted my spine, which caused me quite a bit of pain, but it went back to normal the next day. However, the strain in my chest hasn't gone away since then. Can you help me understand what's going on and how I can get better?
do chest xray

I've had worsening knee pain for 5 years and X-rays show my cartilage is worn out on both sides. Physiotherapy didn't help much and my ortho doc recommends total knee replacement. Right now I'm trying Ayurvedic Sandhi Suddha oil and New Zealand mussels - are there any other options besides surgery that could work for me
Yes, several non-surgical options can be considered before or instead of total knee replacement, including physical therapy, injections (steroids, hyaluronic acid, PRP), and potentially even cartilage repair procedures. The success of these options will depend on your individual condition, the severity of the cartilage damage, and your overall health

I have a bimalleolar fracture in my lower right leg and my surgery is scheduled in two weeks is it safe to wait that long? Also, I've noticed bruising near my knee on my calf, which seems pretty far from the ankle fracture. Should I be worried about that?
A repeat x ray is advised prior to the surgery to check any fractures and soft tissue swelling.
