I've been experiencing pain in my manubrium with some swelling on the left side. It really hurts when I move quickly, breathe deeply, or yawn. Plus, there's this weird sensation in my throat at different times during the day, almost like something's stuck there. Could these symptoms be pointing to something serious?

View allCan bow legs be fixed naturally at my age of 24 without going through surgery I've had them since I was young and wondering if exercises or other non-surgical options might help
At 24, naturally correcting bowlegs (genu varum) without surgery is unlikely, as bone structure is typically fully formed by this age. Exercise and stretching can improve muscle strength and flexibility, but they won't change the bone shape. Surgical correction, like an osteotomy, is usually necessary to reshape the bones

it's been 6 weeks since my acl and meniscus surgery - can i ditch the knee brace and crutches now and start climbing stairs normally?
It's generally advisable to consult with your surgeon or physical therapist before making any significant changes to your recovery plan, especially after ACL and meniscus surgery. However, at 6 weeks post-op, you might be able to gradually decrease reliance on the knee brace and crutches, but you should not start climbing stairs normally yet. Full stair climbing typically takes longer, around 3-4 months, and requires a more comprehensive rehabilitation program.

I fractured my ankle with both linear and oblique fractures and a mild dislocation will I need surgery or can plaster treatment fix this? I'm worried about the best way to heal properly
Whether you need surgery or a plaster cast depends on the severity of your ankle fracture and the extent of the dislocation. A mild dislocation might be treated with a cast or boot, while a more severe fracture and dislocation could require surgery to realign the bones and ligaments. Consulting with an orthopedic surgeon is crucial to determine the best treatment plan for your specific injury
