My pinky finger got fractured and the doctor recommended surgery. Is surgery really necessary for this kind of injury? I've attached the x-ray could you take a look and let me know what you think? Just worried if there are other options or if surgery is the best way to heal properly.

View allI have Potts spine at D4 and D5 with TB and got two different opinions one doctor recommends surgery to remove fluid first then TB meds while another says just medication would work what's the best approach for my case
The optimal approach for spinal tuberculosis (Pott's disease) at D4 and D5, with the presence of fluid and differing opinions, depends on the severity of your case, the extent of spinal cord compression, and the presence of abscesses. Both surgical and medical management have a role, and the decision should be made by a multidisciplinary team of experts, considering your specific situation

I'm experiencing pain in the upper side of my chest, and it feels like it might be related to a bone or muscle because there's some swelling under the skin. My lower neck sometimes aches too. The pain in the swollen area seems to flare up every now and then. What could be causing this, and should I be worried about it?
it might be lymph node enlargement, take tablet zerodol for 2 days , twice in a day

my son has been diagnosed with Osgood-Schlatter disease in his left knee and I'm really worried about how serious this is does it usually cause long-term problems what kind of precautions should he take to manage the pain and prevent it from getting worse also will he eventually need surgery for this condition
Osgood-Schlatter is usually self-limited. Avoid jumping/running, apply ice, and stretch the quads. Rarely needs surgery unless fragments dislodge or symptoms persist into adulthood.
