I've been dealing with this wound on my left knee for about a week now, and it's really frustrating. I can't put any weight on it without needing some support. I've tried using cipladine and betadine, but the pus just won't go away. Do you have any suggestions on what might work better?

my mom is only 56 but her doctor recommended knee replacement surgery - seems too young for that is there any medicine or treatment to improve her knee lubrication and synovial fluid instead

Knee replacement at 56 is not uncommon if pain is severe. Cartilage injections and physiotherapy may help delay surgery in early stages.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with this pain just above the tip of my coccyx for the past 7 years. I've been taking diclofenac sodium and paracetamol, but I'm looking for a more permanent solution, maybe something homeopathic. It's really tough because I can't sit for long periods and any jerking motion makes it worse, even small movements are painful. The pain is now spreading to my legs, and I occasionally get a fever when it's bad. My MRI results showed a disc bulging at L5S1, nerve compression, lumbar lordosis, and acute angulation of the coccyx. I'm 31 years old and would really appreciate some advice on a suitable long-term solution or medication.
