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.

My left elbow was fractured when I was a kid but didn't heal properly, so now my arm isn't straight. If I get surgery to fix it, will it look and feel natural? Is surgery a good long-term solution for this?

While surgery can significantly improve the look and feel of your elbow, it's unlikely to be completely natural, and some limitations in range of motion or strength are possible

I'm experiencing this pain on the right side of my lower back, almost like a muscle pull. It doesn't bother me all the time, but when I sneeze or cough, it really hurts. I've tried using Volini gel and taking hot water showers, but the pain is still there after almost a week. I'm overweight and just started going to the gym again after years, mostly focusing on cardio. Could this be related to my gym workouts? How can I get rid of this pain so I can safely go back to the gym?

may be due to sudden excess physical activity at gym

My 10-year-old son has cubitus varus in his left elbow and we're considering surgery for correction. I've noticed many doctors recommend lateral wedge osteotomy but I'm concerned about the lateral condylar prominence issue that can come with it. Are there any specialists in Pune or Mumbai who perform dome osteotomy for this condition?

Dome osteotomy is a good alternative and reduces cosmetic deformity. Pediatric orthopedic surgeons in major hospitals like Hinduja (Mumbai) or Deenanath Mangeshkar (Pune) may offer this—seek a second opinion there.
