After K-wire hand surgery, nerve pain is common early on; Dolo helps but neuropathic pain meds like pregabalin may be more effective—review with surgeon.

View allMy mom had an accident day before yesterday and broke her shoulder joint. Her creatinine is 1.5 and hemoglobin is 6.8, plus she has triple vessel disease that's borderline. She's already on medications is it safe to go ahead with shoulder surgery given her kidney function and heart condition?
Shoulder surgery in a patient with kidney issues and heart disease needs careful evaluation. Consult with both an orthopedic surgeon and a cardiologist to assess the risks before proceeding.

It's been 8 months since I broke my femur, and while the bone hasn't completely healed, a rod was inserted. I'm really worried about whether I'll be able to walk without a limp. I'm scared even though there's no pain right now. I've been using a stick to walk, and the doctor mentioned it might take 2 more months. Do you think I'll be able to walk without limping?
It is understandable to be concerned about walking without a limp after a femur fracture. The rod inserted in your femur is helping to stabilize the bone and promote healing. It is positive that you are not experiencing pain. With the additional 2 months of healing time recommended by your doctor, there is a good chance that you will be able to walk without a limp once the bone has fully healed. It is important to follow your doctor's advice and rehabilitation plan for the best outcome. In the meantime, you can consider taking calcium and vitamin D supplements to support bone healing.

My calf size has shrunk by 4.7 cm in diameter and feels less rigid after my ACL surgery where they used a hamstring autograft SGT. It's been 25 days, and my operated leg still looks thinner and weaker with some swelling is this normal? They also did a partial meniscectomy on the medial side should I be worried about early osteoarthritis?
Calf muscle atrophy 25‚ÄØdays post-ACL/MCL hamstring graft is normal;continued physiotherapy and compression help,with early osteoarthritis unlikely immediately.
