Question

I've had flat feet since childhood and it's causing me a lot of pain now, especially when standing for long hours. Is there any permanent solution for this or would I need surgery? If surgery is the only option, can you recommend the best specialist for flat feet correction? I'm really worried about how this might affect me long-term.

Question

Hey, I noticed this hard lump on my right rib cage. It doesn't hurt when I touch it, and it stays in place, feeling just like bone. But sometimes it hurts a little on its own, and I've got this pain around my right shoulder blade too. Any idea what this could be?

Question

It's been three months since my ACL and MCL surgery on my right knee, but I still have a very mild limp when walking. I can flex my knee up to 120 degrees and fully extend it, though it's still a little less than my left leg since that one hyperextends. Is this slight limp normal? I can climb stairs but only one at a time.
