Little finger dislocation - not healing

I had a dislocation of my right hand little finger at the PIP joint (middle knuckle). I underwent surgery where a K-wire (metal rod) was inserted to fix the bones in place. The rod was removed 4 months ago and I have attached two X-rays for your reference: 📷 Photo 1 - X-ray taken at the time of surgery (Left hand view, rod visible inside finger) 📷 Photo 2 - X-ray taken today, 4 months after rod removal (Right hand view) My concerns are: Comparing both X-rays, the finger joint does not appear to have improved much — the gap at the PIP joint looks similar in both X-rays The joint does not appear to be in perfect alignment even during surgery with the rod inserted During physiotherapy/bending exercises I experience mild to moderate pain I am worried whether the bones have healed correctly or if further treatment is needed My questions: Has the finger healed in correct position? Is the joint gap seen in X-ray normal or concerning? Is the pain during physiotherapy expected at this stage?

Recurrent neck spasm plan?

Hello Doctor, I have frequent neck pain with spasm and stiffness (about 3–4 times a month). I am planning to avoid muscle relaxants and instead manage flare-ups with paracetamol 650 mg, warm compress, and topical gel. I have already done X-ray, MRI, and other tests, which were normal. I also tried physiotherapy, which helped but only for a short period. As per the physiotherapist, the issue is due to forward neck posture and rounded shoulders. Is it safe to continue managing episodes without muscle relaxants, or could that cause any issues? What should be the long-term plan to reduce these recurring episodes? I’ve noticed weight lifting can trigger the pain, but I also want to strengthen my muscles. How can I safely continue exercising without worsening the issue? Should I continue physiotherapy or focus more on posture correction and specific exercises? What warning signs should I watch for? Thank you.
