I've been having trouble with both my knees, especially when climbing stairs or bending them during exercise and daily activities. It's getting really uncomfortable. Can you explain how total knee replacement works and what high flexion knee replacement is? I'm trying to understand if either of these could help with my pain and mobility issues.

View allWhat's the role of the fibula in ankle movement? I had surgery on my tibia and fibula 5 months ago, but my ankle still won't bend no matter how much I try. 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.

I've been having some moderate pain in my tennis elbow area, and I'm starting to wonder if there's any way this could be related to excessive masturbation. Could that be causing it or making it worse? I'm really curious about how these things could be connected.
Excessive masturbation is not directly related to tennis elbow pain. The pain in your elbow is likely due to overuse of the muscles and tendons in that area. To help alleviate the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (Advil) or naproxen (Aleve) as per the recommended dosage on the package. Additionally, you can apply a topical analgesic cream like diclofenac (Voltaren) to the affected area. Resting the arm, using a brace for support, and doing gentle stretching exercises may also help in relieving the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

Is there any way to reduce my carrying angle from 20 to 15 degrees without surgery? I have it in both hands and was wondering if specific exercises could help or if surgery is the only option to fix it
Yes, it's possible to reduce an excessive carrying angle (cubitus valgus) from 20 to 15 degrees without surgery, and exercises can be helpful. While surgery may be an option in some cases, yoga and physical therapy exercises can be effective in strengthening the muscles and potentially reducing the angle.
