I've been having pain in my glutes along with a fever and I'm worried about what steps I should take to treat it. How long does recovery usually take if it's caught early? Is surgery the only option or are there other treatments I can try first?

If you have pain in your glutes accompanied by a fever, it's important to see a doctor as soon as possible to determine the cause and get appropriate treatment. Fever can be a sign of infection or other serious underlying issues, and it's crucial to address it promptly.

I have a slipped disc at L4L5 causing pain in my right leg and want to explore non-surgical treatments. Can you suggest medicine options that don't involve antibiotics? I'm really worried about surgery and hoping for alternatives.
For non-surgical management of a slipped disc at L4-L5 causing right leg pain, consider over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or naproxen, and potentially prescription pain medications like tramadol or corticosteroids under the guidance of a healthcare professional. Heat or ice therapy, along with physical therapy and alternative therapies like acupuncture or massage, can also help with pain management and muscle relaxation.

my doctor said the fibula bone near my ankle is broken and recommended surgery but I'm unsure if it's really needed can it heal on its own without surgery or is surgery the only option
A fractured fibula near the ankle can sometimes heal without surgery, but it depends on the type and severity of the fracture. Surgery might be necessary for displaced or unstable fractures, or if other parts of the leg are also injured.
