I've been dealing with neck pain for a couple of months now. Sometimes it eases up, but then it just comes back after a few days. At first, I thought maybe it was from sleeping in a bad position. I'm really starting to get concerned. Any idea what's going on or what I should do about it?

For relief, you can try taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief cream like diclofenac gel to the affected area 3-4 times a day. Make sure to improve your sleeping habits and maintain good posture during the day. If the pain persists, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

Severe knee pain from cartilage loss may be managed temporarily with injections (hyaluronic acid,PRP) and physiotherapy,but TKR is the only long‚Äëterm solution.

Are biodegradable screws actually worth it for ACL surgery and how much do they cost per piece Is there a more affordable treatment option available
Biodegradable screws can be a good option for ACL surgery, but they are generally more expensive than metal screws and may have potential complications like screw breakage or tunnel widening. While metal screws can cause MRI distortion or complications in revision surgery, they are generally more affordable. Screwless fixation techniques are also available, which may offer a more cost-effective approach with faster recovery
