I've been experiencing this constant tightness and strain in my upper chest wall, like it's always tense, especially when I do anything using my left hand. I recently found out my Vitamin D and B12 levels are significantly low from a blood test. I've started taking Tayo 60K for Vitamin D, and just a couple of days ago, I began MeAxon Plus for B12. I'm not sure if these are related, but about 10 months ago, I lifted a heavy bag and twisted my spine, which caused me quite a bit of pain, but it went back to normal the next day. However, the strain in my chest hasn't gone away since then. Can you help me understand what's going on and how I can get better?

My wife is scheduled for bilateral total knee replacement surgery on April 1st 2020 but with the COVID situation, I'm really worried about her staying in the hospital for over 20 days post-op. Is it safe to go ahead with the surgery right now or should we postpone it?

It is not advisable to go for elective surgery in the present day serinio when the whole atmosphere is infected with covid 19. It will have all medical, social & legal repurcatations. However she can practice some yoga based exercises.
