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.

My pinky finger got fractured and the doctor recommended surgery. Is surgery really necessary for this kind of injury? I've attached the x-ray could you take a look and let me know what you think? Just worried if there are other options or if surgery is the best way to heal properly.

I would need some more details to get a clear idea of what you are going through
