It's generally not recommended to administer Vomikind syrup or tablets without consulting a doctor, especially after surgery. Vomikind, which contains ondansetron, can be helpful for managing nausea and vomiting, but it's crucial to determine the underlying cause of the vomiting and loose motions and to ensure it's safe for your mother to take given her specific medical history and recent surgery

My mom has been dealing with knee swelling and pain for about a year now. We've tried different treatments, but the pain keeps getting worse. The doctor suggested knee replacement surgery, but I'm worried what are the success rates and possible side effects? Also, can you recommend the best doctor or hospital for this procedure?

I had a partial ACL tear 10 months ago and one doctor said I might need surgery but another suggested physiotherapy exercises could help it recover in about 2 years. Is it really possible for the ACL to heal completely with just physio or should I consider surgery? I'm worried about making the right choice for long-term recovery.

At 10 months after a partial ACL tear, most individuals can expect to have returned to most activities of daily living, including walking and full weight-bearing. However, a full return to sports and high-impact activities may take longer and should be discussed with your doctor. A partial ACL tear can often heal without surgery, but some individuals may still experience knee instability, particularly with more strenuous activities.
