I've been dealing with a minor meniscus tear in my right knee and the doctor had said to take it easy for a month and keep activities low for at least a year.

View allIt's been four months since my fracture and I'm still using a walker. The x-ray shows a separate bone fragment will this heal on its own or will I need surgery to fix it?
Whether a separate bone fragment will heal on its own or require surgery depends on several factors, including the size of the fragment, its location, and whether it's causing any pain, functional limitations, or damage to nearby tissues. If it's been four months since the fracture and the fragment hasn't healed, it's possible that it's a non-union fracture, meaning the bone pieces haven't joined together. In these cases, surgery might be necessary to try to promote healing or remove the fragment.

I'm experiencing some pain when I'm either standing up or lying down, specifically in my leg near my stomach. It seems to hurt even more when I put pressure on it. There's no blood or anything like that, but should I be concerned about this? What could be causing the pain?
