My 17-year-old daughter had brain tumor surgery at age 4 and now has issues with her breast and neck shifting out of place. An ortho doctor recommended seeing a surgeon for reverse cervical lordosis, but we're worried about another operation. Are there non-surgical options to help correct this or relieve her symptoms?

Can I get a total hip replacement done under spinal anesthesia if I have ankylosing spondylitis but my spine isn't fused yet I'm worried about general anesthesia because I feel weak and have breathlessness issues no other health problems diagnosed so far

Yes, you can likely have a total hip replacement under spinal anesthesia even with ankylosing spondylitis if your spine isn't fused yet. Regional anesthesia, including spinal and epidural, is often preferred over general anesthesia for hip replacements, and can be safely used in patients with ankylosing spondylitis

I've been dealing with a D12 compression fracture from an accident, and at first, the pain disappeared after about three months. But after a recent flight, I noticed some discomfort when the plane was landing. Now it's spreading to a few spots along with the original D12 area. Should I be thinking about going for another MRI or just stick to medication for now?

if the fracture is healed there will not be such problems in flight journey, it may be due back muscles strain because of long term sitting in upright posture, take hot or cold pack, if doesn't subside consult orthopedic surgeon
