My doctor said I have a fracture in my ankle and foot and recommended surgery, warning that without it there's a 30-35% chance of developing arthritis. I'm not sure what to do should I go ahead with the surgery or are there other options?

If surgery is recommended due to the risk of arthritis, it‚Äôs worth considering to prevent long-term complications. Consult a second opinion if unsure about the surgery or explore non-surgical alternatives like a cast or brace.

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?
