I've been dealing with scoliosis for a while now and the chronic back pain is really affecting my daily life. Even simple tasks are becoming difficult. I'm considering surgery but I'm worried about it are there any other treatment options that could help me avoid going under the knife?

I've been building homes recently and started feeling a burning sensation in my inner left leg, like maybe I pulled a muscle. But now it's gotten worse and moved down past my knee. It's super painful when I walk or move, and the area is all red wherever there's pain. It's been like this for a week. Any idea what's going on with my leg?

I'm a 40-year-old from Hyderabad and my MRI showed tears in the medial and lateral meniscus of my left knee along with an ACL tear. The report mentions an oblique tear in the posterior horn of the medial meniscus, a grade II horizontal tear in the lateral meniscus, and a full-thickness mid-substance ACL tear with some retraction. I consulted two orthopedic doctors one recommended arthroscopy for ACL and meniscus repair, while the other said only the meniscus needs surgery since I work in IT and have a sedentary lifestyle. Can these meniscus tears heal on their own without surgery What should be my next steps given my age and daily routine

ortho opinion is advised to the patient at apollo hospital.
