When should I worry about upper back pain?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If pain develops suddenly and is severe, such as from an injury ( fall) and if pain and symptoms (eg, weakness) progressively worsen you should seek medical attention.

View allI've had pain in my right knee for the past two weeks and the MRI scan shows a complex medial meniscus tear. What treatment options do I have or will I need surgery for this?
With a complex medial meniscus tear, treatment options depend on the severity, location, and symptoms. Non-surgical options like RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation), physical therapy, and pain management may be tried first. If these don't relieve symptoms or if the tear is large or causing instability, surgery (like arthroscopic repair or partial meniscectomy) may be necessary.
