I've been having this chest pain ever since I fell a couple of days ago. It hurts when I move or do things like cough or sneeze, and I can't seem to find a comfortable position to sleep on either side. Should I be worried about this, and do you think I should get it checked out?

My 82-year-old parent has been advised to get shoulder surgery but they also have diastolic dysfunction should we be worried about the risks during surgery

Yes, the presence of diastolic dysfunction in an 82-year-old parent undergoing shoulder surgery warrants a discussion with the surgeon and anesthesiologist about potential risks. Diastolic dysfunction, where the heart's ventricles don't properly relax and fill with blood, can increase the risk of complications during and after surgery, particularly related to cardiac health.

I've been walking for a month now, but the pain in my ankle is getting worse. Could this be related to how the fibula heals? I've attached my x-ray for reference.
