My mom has been struggling with her weight and knee issues for a while now. She can't walk properly and has pain when she exerts herself, but otherwise just finds it hard to walk straight. It's been like this for two years is knee replacement the only option or are there other things we can try first?
No, knee replacement is not necessarily the only option for your mom's knee pain and weight issues. There are several other treatments and lifestyle changes that can help manage her pain and improve her mobility before considering surgery. A combination of weight management, exercise, physical therapy, and pain management strategies can be very effective.

I've been dealing with severe pain for the past 30 days and visited both a general physician and an orthopedic specialist. They prescribed antacids, painkillers, and suggested using a splint, but I haven't seen any improvement. Is surgery the best option to relieve this pain or should I wait longer?
If severe pain persists for 30 days despite seeing a general physician and orthopedic specialist, further evaluation and specialized care may be necessary. Consider consulting a pain management specialist or other relevant specialist for advanced diagnostics and treatment options.
