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. Now, after a year, I had another fall from my bike and my knee's hurting similar to before, but it's also feeling kinda cold. What should I do about this?

I've been noticing that when I squat, my knees start to vibrate, but everything seems normal when I'm just walking, sitting, or standing. It's a bit concerning because there's also a popping sound when I bend my knees. Is this something to worry about, or could it just be normal?

My left elbow was fractured when I was a kid but didn't heal properly, so now my arm isn't straight. If I get surgery to fix it, will it look and feel natural? Is surgery a good long-term solution for this?

While surgery can significantly improve the look and feel of your elbow, it's unlikely to be completely natural, and some limitations in range of motion or strength are possible
