I had a minor bike accident a few weeks ago and since then, I've been experiencing this nagging pain on the right side of my ribs, just below my right breast. At first, I assumed it was just a typical muscle pain that would go away, so I tried using Volini gel and a hot gel bag for a couple of weeks. But there was no improvement, so I decided to get an X-ray after my doctor suggested it, and it came back normal. My doctor then put me on some painkillers for muscle pain, and I've been taking them for about a week now. But the pain is still there. It's really intense when I make minor body movements, during sudden jolts while traveling in a bus, car, bike, or rickshaw, and even when I hiccup. Sleeping has become uncomfortable too, as I can't turn to my sides. What should I do to get some relief from this? I would really appreciate some guidance.

View allI have ulnar nerve subluxation in my right elbow where the nerve pops out over the medial epicondyle when I bend my arm. Every doctor I've seen recommends surgery, but I'm wondering if homeopathy can help stop the nerve from moving instead
While homeopathic treatments may offer some relief from pain and inflammation associated with ulnar nerve subluxation, there is no scientific evidence to support their ability to stop the nerve from moving or reposition it. Medical professionals recommend surgery (anterior transposition of the ulnar nerve) as the most effective treatment for ulnar nerve subluxation because it addresses the underlying issue of nerve displacement and prevents further damage

I've had a completely dissolved left hip joint for the past 13 years, which has made my left leg about one and a half inches shorter than my right. I just had a baby via C-section and am currently breastfeeding. When would be a safe time for me to get hip replacement surgery? Walking has become really difficult for me lately.
If you have recently delivered a baby through C section, you should wait for atleast three months to allow the body to recover. Even after three months, your blood tests and other investigations should be done and surgery should be performed only if you are medically fit for the same. Hip replacement is not an emergency and is an elective procedure. When performed by a Joint replacement surgeon/ Fellowship trained Orthopaedic surgeon, you will get excellent long term results.
