My mom has been dealing with severe pain in her right leg joint, and the X-ray showed an osteophyte at the superior pole of her right patella. The doctor prescribed Etoricoxib 120 mg tablets, which she takes daily along with recommended exercises, but there's no improvement. When she stops the meds because of side effects like stomach upset and giddiness, the pain comes back. Is there any other treatment option for her, or would surgery be advisable in this case? Also, is it safe to take Etoricoxib long-term given the side effects?

A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I've had an ACL injury that doesn't seem to be healing properly - my knee still makes popping sounds and hurts when I try to move it. I can't bend my knee all the way or climb stairs without pain. Should I consider surgery for this?

Got an MRI report showing a complete tear of the medial patellar retinaculum with fluid buildup and swelling, plus a sprain in the ACL and MCL. There's also some bone marrow edema in the lateral femoral condyle and mild knee effusion. Really worried about surgery is there any way to heal this with meds or other treatments instead?
