I've been noticing that when I squat, my knees start to vibrate, but everything seems normal when I'm just walking, sitting, or standing. It's a bit concerning because there's also a popping sound when I bend my knees. Is this something to worry about, or could it just be normal?

I broke my tibia and fibula back in late July 2016 and had to get surgery where they put in a titanium rod for healing. I work in an IT services company here in Bangalore, and right now the pain has lessened and the swelling's down, but my leg still doesn't feel strong enough to handle weight. I use a walker to get around with a bit of weight on the leg. I'm thinking of going back to work by October and would like to continue my physical therapy sessions here in Bangalore. Do you think thats a smart move?
To further strengthen your leg and improve weight-bearing ability, you can consider taking Calcium and Vitamin D supplements to support bone healing. Additionally, you can use pain relievers like Ibuprofen to manage any residual discomfort. It is important to follow your physiotherapist's guidance on exercises and gradually increase your activity level to regain strength in your leg.

I have a flap tear in the posterior horn of my lateral meniscus and also an ACL tear my ACL surgery is scheduled for next week. Do I really need surgery for the meniscus tear too, or can it heal on its own? I'm worried about having two surgeries and how that might affect recovery.
Whether you need surgery for a flap tear in the posterior horn of your lateral meniscus alongside your scheduled ACL surgery depends on the severity and type of tear, as well as your individual circumstances. While some smaller tears might heal on their own with conservative treatment, larger or more complex tears may require surgery, either at the same time as the ACL surgery or separately. The decision will be made by your orthopedic surgeon, taking into account factors like the tear's size, location, and your overall health
