Hello,

It's important to consult a doctor to get an accurate diagnosis. If your mother has a slight fracture in the hip or groin area, the treatment will depend on the type and severity of the fracture.

In some cases, small or hairline fractures may heal with conservative treatment such as:

1. Bed rest
2. Limited weight-bearing
3. Physical therapy

However, most hip fractures, especially in elderly individuals, may require surgery to heal properly and prevent complications like immobility or bedsores. Here’s a general approach:

1. Consult an orthopaedic specialist for a proper assessment, as imaging (X-ray or MRI) may be needed.
2. Follow the doctor's advice for treatment. Rest alone may not be sufficient in all cases.
3. Recovery time will vary, but minor fractures typically take 6-8 weeks to heal, provided they are properly managed.
4. Keep an eye on pain levels and mobility, and seek medical care immediately if the pain worsens or you have difficulty moving.

Hello, Vinit Naik Ji,

A meniscus tear in the right leg may or may not require surgery, depending on the severity and type of the tear. Treatment options generally include:

1. Conservative Management: If the tear is minor or if symptoms can be managed with physical therapy, rest, and anti-inflammatory medications, surgery might not be necessary.

2. Surgical Intervention: For more severe tears or if conservative treatments do not relieve symptoms, surgery might be recommended. Common procedures include meniscectomy (removal of the damaged part) or meniscus repair.

It’s best to consult an orthopaedic specialist who can evaluate the extent of the tear through physical examination and imaging studies like an MRI. They will provide guidance on the most appropriate treatment based on your specific condition.
