My left elbow got injured after slipping on my motorcycle. One doctor recommended surgery while another said it's a blood clot. I've been taking regular meds for 3 months but still have pain and can't straighten my elbow. Can you check my x-ray and let me know what you think?

Persistent elbow pain needs imaging review—share X-ray for second opinion on clot vs fracture.

My 65-year-old mom has severe knee pain because the fluid in her knee is gone and the bone is worn out. She can't walk or climb stairs anymore. Allopathy doctors recommended knee replacement, but I'm wondering if homeopathy has any treatment options for this condition
homeopathy may offer some relief for knee pain, it's crucial to understand that it doesn't directly address the underlying cause of bone-on-bone friction or the loss of cartilage, which are central to osteoarthritis. Homeopathy is often used to manage symptoms like pain and inflammation, but it's not a replacement for allopathic treatments like knee replacement surgery when that is needed

I have a horizontal tear in the posterior horn of my medial meniscus do I really need surgery for this or can it heal with just meds and physio
A horizontal tear in the posterior horn of your medial meniscus may or may not require surgery, depending on the size and location of the tear. Small tears in the "red-red" or "red-white" zones (with blood supply for healing) may heal with conservative treatment like rest, ice, compression, elevation, physical therapy, and pain medication. Larger tears or those in the "white zone" (no blood supply) are less likely to heal on their own and may require surgery.
