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.

I have stage 2 avascular necrosis in my left femoral head and heard homeopathy might help cure it without surgery Has anyone actually recovered this way or are there other non-surgical options that worked for people

Homeopathy may help symptoms, but there's no strong evidence it can reverse avascular necrosis. Core decompression or stem cell therapy might help before joint replacement is needed.

My mom is 63 and has severe knee pain in both knees. The doctor recommended knee replacement but she's worried because she's overweight at 80 kg and 5.1 feet tall. Is it safe for her to get the surgery? Also, what's the difference between robotic knee replacement and regular knee replacement? How long does recovery usually take?

Surgery can be done in overweight patients if diabetes is stable; robotic offers better precision, recovery is 4‚Äì6 weeks.
