I'm having this pain in my mid-chest, but it only happens with certain movements. I've talked to a bunch of doctors about it, even had some tests like an ECHO done, but everything seems normal. They mentioned it might be muscular pain or something called costochondritis. How long does something like this usually take to feel better? I'm really scared to even pick up my kid right now. Everyone has just suggested using Volini gel. Do you have any home remedies in mind that might help with this?

I'm 30 and have been dealing with ankylosing spondylitis since June 2020, with a positive HLA-B27 test. I really want to avoid my vertebrae fusing together but don't want to rely on medicines. Can exercises, physiotherapy, or other therapies help prevent fusion? If fusion does happen, can it be reversed with therapy or will I need surgery? I can handle the pain but the idea of my spine or neck fusing scares me. How long does fusion usually take if it happens? Any advice would mean a lot.

A combination of medicines and exercise will be the best way forward. Taken alone neither will help completely.

I'm dealing with this annoying pain in the upper thigh on my left side. It's not super intense, but it's always there and gets on my nerves. There's also some swelling at the top of my thigh compared to the other side, and the pain seems to start there and then moves down to the inner part of my thigh. Ive already done an MRI of my hip and pelvis, and even had my blood tests done everything came back normal except for a vitamin D3 and B12 deficiency. I've been taking vitamin B12 injections and 60k IU of vitamin D3 once a week, but its only been two weeks so far. Im just wondering how long it will take for my vitamin levels to get back to normal. Also, Ive tried physical therapy, but it hasn't really helped with the pain or swelling. Any advice on what I can do next?
