I've been dealing with calcaneal bursitis for two years now and nothing seems to help tried both regular doctors and homeopathy but no luck. A new doctor suggested surgery but mentioned the bone might grow back. Is there any permanent fix for this? I'm ready to book an online appointment right away if there's a solution.

It's understandable that you're feeling frustrated after two years of dealing with calcaneal bursitis and not finding relief with traditional and homeopathic treatments. Since it's been persistent for this long, further investigation may be necessary

View allI'm 25 and I've noticed that my chest has some kind of deformation. After looking it up online, I figured out that it might be pigeon chest. I'm really keen on getting it treated but I'd prefer to avoid surgery if possible. Is there any other way to deal with this?

I'm a 22-year-old working in IT and just had surgery for a complete ACL tear and lateral meniscus tear in my left knee. The doctors did an ACL reconstruction and partial meniscectomy but didn't specify how much meniscus was removed. How serious is this and what are my chances of developing osteoarthritis later? Are there exercises I should avoid to protect my knee and do I need to follow any long-term precautions to prevent further damage?
The dry weight of Meniscus removed is generally not done. So to quantify the amount of Meniscus removed is difficult. But be sure that even after aggressive meniscectomy, peripheral rim of Meniscus still remains. You can do any exercise, running or jogging in a graded manner post ACL reconstruction and meniscectomy. Your life remains same post this surgery People with Meniscus repair have to be cautious , there is no problem with people with meniscectomy .

I've been diagnosed with myositis ossificans and really want to avoid surgery what are some effective non-surgical ways to manage the calcification and reduce symptoms? Are there specific exercises, medications, or lifestyle changes that can help slow down or reverse the condition?
Myositis ossificans can be treated conservatively with NSAIDs, physiotherapy, and avoiding repeated trauma. Surgery is avoided unless severely limiting movement.
