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.

View allMy MRI report shows a complete tear in the middle part of the ACL and a full tear of the distal MCL. Is there any chance these injuries can heal on their own without needing surgery? I'm really worried about recovery options.
A full ACL tear typically requires surgery for a full recovery, especially if you are active or have high physical demands. While some individuals can manage with bracing and physical therapy, the ACL lacks a blood supply and heals poorly without surgery. MCL tears, on the other hand, often heal well with conservative treatment like bracing and physical therapy, even if they are full tears.

I recommend starting with physiotherapy and painkillers to manage your condition. If there's no significant improvement after a reasonable period, we can then consider surgical options.

How long does it usually take for a tibia-shin bone fracture near the ankle to heal? And when might I be able to start walking again? Also, what should I expect regarding a full recovery?
The healing time for a tibiashin bone fracture can vary depending on the severity of the fracture. In general, it can take around 6 to 8 weeks for the fracture to heal. However, it may take longer for full recovery, which can range from several months to a year. After the initial healing period, a person may be able to start walking with the help of crutches or a walking boot. It is important to follow your doctor's advice on when it is safe to start walking again to avoid any complications. Physical therapy may also be recommended to help regain strength and mobility in the affected leg.
