My dad has a large 12 x 8.5 x 7 cm thin-walled cystic lesion filled with fluid in his right upper back between the scapula and spine near the trapezius muscle. The MRI showed no chest involvement. What's the best treatment for this can it be drained with a needle or does it need surgery? Also, which specialist should we see for this?

Knee clicking and pain when squatting or sitting cross-legged could be due to several issues, including meniscus tears, osteoarthritis, or patellofemoral syndrome.

I'm 23 and have bow legs are there any non-surgical treatments or exercises that can help fix them and how long would it take to see improvement
At 23, the bones are mostly mature, so non-surgical correction of bow legs is limited. However, physiotherapy focusing on strengthening hip and thigh muscles, along with posture correction exercises, may improve appearance and function. It may take several months to notice subtle changes. For significant correction, surgical options may be more effective.
