My mom had knee replacement surgery at AIIMS Raipur on March 15th this year and now I'm looking for a good physiotherapist near Bilaspur Koni to help with her recovery. Can you suggest someone reliable in that area who specializes in post-surgery rehab? She's been a bit worried about getting the right exercises to regain mobility.

I'm dealing with this painful swelling on the middle right side of my back, and it feels like the muscle there has turned into a rock. It really hurts when I try to sleep on that side. Went to my GP and got some meds and cream, but they havent really done the trick. Could this be a muscle knot, and what can I do to get rid of it?

Sounds like you may be dealing with a muscle knot in your back. To help relieve the pain and swelling, you can try using a muscle relaxant like Flexeril (Cyclobenzaprine) along with a topical pain relief cream like Voltaren Gel (Diclofenac). Additionally, applying a heating pad to the affected area and gently massaging the muscle knot can also help to alleviate the discomfort. Make sure to avoid sleeping on the right side to prevent further aggravating the muscle. If the symptoms persist, it would be best to follow up with your GP for further evaluation and treatment.

I've had lower back issues for 12 years, and my recent MRI showed a protruded disc and severe disc bulge from L2 to S1 affecting four discs. Doctors advised against surgery and recommended managing it with physiotherapy. Will I have to keep suffering like this, or are there any nonsurgical treatments that can permanently fix my lower back problem? I've already spent around 80,000 on physio, ayurveda, yoga, marma therapy, and painkillers with no lasting relief.

Long-standing disc bulge needs targeted rehab; surgical options like microdiscectomy can be explored if symptoms persist.
