my 19 year old son just had keyhole surgery for a torn ligament and i'm wondering what ayurvedic medicines can help him recover faster

To naturally expedite ligament healing, focus on RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) for the first few days, followed by a gradual return to activity with low-impact exercises and a balanced diet rich in nutrients

View allHad surgery on my finger yesterday and the pain is really bad today. The doctor prescribed Combiflum but it's not helping much. Since my doctor is far away now, can you suggest a stronger painkiller that might work better?
continue same treatment for 5 days as advised.

I've had this small lump near my elbow for about three years now. It's about 2cm and gets painful if I press on it. I'm noticing it might be slightly bigger, but it's still not really visible to others. Do you think I should consider surgery for this?
It sounds like the lump might be a benign growth like a cyst or lipoma, especially if it's been there for years and is causing mild pain. Since it's growing in size and causing discomfort, its best to consult with a doctor to assess whether surgery is necessary.

I'm a 41-year-old woman with obesity and just had a complete ACL tear. It's been two weeks and my ortho said surgery isn't urgent could even wait a year. How long until I can walk normally again? I'm not super active but love swimming, walking, and dancing will I still be able to do those without surgery?
First of all, acl ligament tear will not heal by its own ..ligament recreconstruction is the only solution in your case and also then only u can carry out your sports type activities. Second thing waiting for such a long time is not advisable as internal derangement may lead to medial meniscus tear and early arthritis changes due to cartilage erosion..so better to go for arthroscopic acl reconstruction as soon as possible till that time keep doing quadriceps strengthening excersises andROM excersises that will help you in post operative rehabilitation.
